TROOPS POURING INTO THE ANCIENT
CAPITAL OF MANCHURIA.
Probable Plans of Field Marshal

"A Naval Constructors Views.

LONDON, Sept. PA dispatch from
Shanghai. dated to-day, says: Captain
Tang, commander of the Chinese war ship
Chin Yuen. which was SUM in the en-
gagement off the Yalu river, is among the
saved.
The British steamer Irene. from Ham
burg, loaded with large quantities Of mu-
nitions of war, has safely arrived at Taku
and landed her cargo.
1t is understood that the Governor of
Manchuria is concentrating all the troops
raised in that province upon Mukden. and
that on the route to Wi Ju extensive earth
works are being thrown UP. The levies
are composed of hardy north China men,
and are excellent material, but they are
badly armed, only about four thousand of
them having good military rifles. Further
supplies. however. are being hurried up
from the southern arsenals. The Chinese
force e~ntrenched upon the Yalu river is es-
timated to number thirty-eight thousand
men. Many of these are raw levies, and
also badly armed. The loss Of
field guns. rifles and ammunition
suffered at Ping Yang has greatly
embarrassed the Chinese war Department.
1t is recognized that a battle must be
fought on the Yalu and the Chinese are
straining every nerve to retrieve their dis
aster at Ping Yang. European officers here
doubt whether Mukden is really the imme-
date objective OF the japanese. 1t is con-
sidered more probable that If they attack
Wi Ju the Japanese will make q descent
from the sea upon Neu Chwang with an
expeditionary force. If this movement
should be successfully made the Japanese
would cut the Chinese main line of COM
muDication and could attack the Yalu army
In the rear. Neu Chwang In the possess
sion of the japanese would form a base
for a movement upon Mukden or upon
Pekin itself. and the forces landed there
could cooperate with the army advancing
