LONDON. Aug ia despatch from Shanghai
says:
1t is reported that twenty six ships were en-
gagged in the attack on wel-Hai-wei. Whether
or not all were war ships is not known.
g. The forts and vessels exchanged about fifty
shots. The forts fired badly; their shells fell
short or wide. The attacks. IL Is thought, were

strength and position Of the Chinese guns.
"No damage is reported TO have been done at
either wei-Hai-wei or Port Arthur.
Two small Chinese gunboats were sighted on
Aug. speeding toward Tien-Tsin."
In British naval circles the japanese attacks
upon wei-Hai- Wei and Port Arthur are regard
ed as daring to rashness, and the pluck OF the
Japanese is praised unstintedly. The attacks
are compared to suppositive British attack
upon Touon.
wei-IIai-wei and Port Arthur have exceed
ingly strong defences. Moreover, according to
the testimony OF Capt. Lang and the facts, the
Chinese are expert torpedoists and gunners.
II is assumed that the japanese attack is part
OF a scheme To keep the Chinese feet in the Gulf
Of Pe-chi-li while Japan pours troops into Corsa
The Ners recommends concerted action by
the European powers to stop the war between
China and Japan. 1tsays:
"China and Japan respectively embody cor
servative and innovating forces. II is therefore
natural that western nations should sympathizo
with Japan. II her ultimate victory were prob
able. or even within the range OF practical pos
sibilites, there might be plausible arguments
against Intervention.
"But the permanent defeat OF China Is almost
impossible. and the result, unless the powers
interpose, will probably be the extinction Of
japanese autonomy and Jealous exclusion Of
foreign devils from Japan as well as from
China.
III mutual jealousy prevents the European
powers from acting, there remains the alterna-
tive of possible action by the United States.
THAT may be contrary TO one aspect of the
Monroe doctrine and opposed to American IDEAS
but the situation is exceptional enough to justi-
fy n departure from precedent and usage The
fighting cannot continue without seriously In
