READY FOR BATTLE.
The Japanese Have a Strong
Force at Ping Yang,
And Battle Is Daily Expected
General Yek Not Killed.
English Firms still Fitting Out Vessels Tor
Japan and China.

LONDON, Aug. 2l.-A dispatch from
Shanghai to the Pail Mall Gazette says the
report that the Chinese General Yeh was
killed in battle with the Japanese is untrue.
Gen. Yeh is at the head Of the Yashan
army, which is not scattered as reported,
but merely outhanked by the Japanese.
The latter marched to Ping Yang in strong
force, and decisive battle at or near that
place is imminent.
The Central News says that government
officials are watching carefully all firms fit
ting out ships and manufacturing amuni-
tion. Many firms which have been warned
against working for either Japan or China,
have denied invariably that they intended
to undermine the governments policy.
Those who acknowledged that they were
dealing in materials or vessels Of war, pro
testad invariably that the materials and ves-
sells are to be sent to South American
countries. In hardly case has firm
stopped its suspected activity on account of
the governments warning.
