| Tsin denies the report that the Chinese have
evacuated Corea and also denies that the Jap

transports moving with the utmost freedom
In the Gulf Of Pe-Chi-Li. and that the warships
at Port Arthur. which were engaged in the Yaloo
fight, will soon be repaired and ready for sea,
with the exception of the La-Yuen, which was
almost wholly burned.
The Shanghai correspondent Of the Cen

caused IN the city of Ning-Po by the report
that five japanese warships had been seen near
the entrance to the Ning-Po River. A steamer
which arrived at the city on October reports
having sighted two Japanese warships short
time before entering the river.

sumab,y for the purpose of prosecuting the war
against China and bill authorizing such action
will be introduced in the Imperial Diet without

is not known. The same dispatch says that the
Japanese forces have dispersed the rebellious

The dispatch adds that nothing is known in
Shanghai regarding the reported muiiny OF the
