TWO LIVES LOST.

The Occupants of a Gospel Boat Cut
 or by Flames. Jumped Into the
 Water and only One Wassaved.
 SYRACUSE, N. Y., May 10.-Fire broke ont about midnight in the lumber yards of O. H. Baker & Co.,, on the bank of the Os. wego canal. The result is the destruction of $60. GOO worth of property and the lose of two lives.
 The gospel boat "Good News" of the Rescue mission of this city was moored be- side the burning lumber. The flames sur rounded the boat and cut of all chance of escape for it's occupants. There were three persons on the boat, Bert Wilson, its cap- tain, and his young wife and Alopzo Be- laney, brother of Mrs. Wilson. All three jumped into the water in their night clothes. Wilson succeeded in swimming ashore, but his wife and her brother were drowned. Joe Dunfee, the well known pugilist of this city, lesped into the water and assisted Wileon to land.
 There was strong wind blowing and 1t was feared at one time that the blsze would spread to adjoining buildings. The | ire was gotten under control, however, | inside of an hour. The boat was burned to the waters edge, entaillug loss oi | about 5000. The loss on the lumber is covered by insurance.

was facing tho Chinese centre aud tho
Hwang Lu column was operating on
the Chinese right. Tho latter column
had boon reinforced the day before By q
detachment OF marines and blue jackets
from tho fleet stationed at tho mouth Of
tho Ta.Tong river. The Chinese uti-
lized their old defenses at Ping Yang
and had thrown up now works with tho
result that their position was excep-
tionally strong.
This baltic opened on Saturday
morning at daybreak, with direct
cannonade upon the Chinese works
and this FIRE was continued without
cessation until after noon. The Chinese
fought their guns we'll, replying eaec-
lively to tho Japanese fire. At 2 p. M,
a body OF Japanese infantry was thrown
forward in akirmiah order and kept up
rifle fro upon tho enemy until dusk.
Ali the fighting during tho day was
dono by tho Pong San column.
The firing was continued. at inter-
walls, throughout the night In the
meantime the two thanking columns OF
Japanese drew Gordon around the
Chinese troops. and ut o'clock in the
morning tho Japanese attack was dc.
liyered simultaneously and with admir-
able precision. The Chinese lines,
which were strong in front, wore found

unsuspicious of the Japanese attack
from that quarter, woro taken by sur
prise, became panic stricken and were
cut down and bayoneted by tho hun

tack directed that the Chinese woro
assaulted at every point aud eventually

was in tho hands Of the Japanese troops.
It 10 beloved that the Chinese position
at Ping Yang was defended by 10000
Chineae, OF whom only few succeeded
in escaping. The Japanese victory was
brilliant ana complete. An immense
amount of provisions, arms, ammuni-
ton and other stores, in addition to
hundreds OF flags, were captured by the
Japanese In the Chinese camps and
