teenth regiments, Reilly's battery
and marines. A heavy battle is still
in progress.
From the fact that the engagement
lasted ~ hours it is argued in the de
paltnent that either the Chinese must
have been heavily intlenchcd or that
there was an immense horde of them t,
50 stubbornly contest the advance of the
10000 international troops. 1t is figured
hv military experts that Il loss of 1,20O
killed and wounded on the part of the al
lies probably means loss of from three
to six times as many by the Chinese. 1t
is possible that blow of this magnitude
may break the resistance Of the Chinese
to the advance of the foreign column;
Int. ON the other hand, it is possible that
this may be one of Il large number of
places on the road that have been in
lrrnchcd with view to falling back and
contcsting the foreign advance 50 rs to
delay rs long as possible the arrival of
III" foreigners at Ieking.
Unless the opposition suddenly breaks
down, the military experts look for a dcs-
pc rate engagement when the troops reach
the walled city of Tung Chow. which is
said TO be even more favorably located
for purposes of defense than was Jicn-
tSin.
The position of the United States diplo-
matically remains unchanged. This gov
tIMment will not consent to the removal
of the ministers and foreigners from Pc
king until there is free communication by
the powers with their ministers, nor will
this goveNlment consent to conmunica-
lion in plain language alone, but insists
that cipher messages must pass freely
between Minister Conger and our state
department. 1t is emphatically stated
that unless such messages are exchanged
the United States cannot know beyond
Question that the messages were not
gnrhlcd and both the United States gov
eminent and the ministers misled.
There seems to be no doubt about the
safety of the ministers at Peking for
the present and that they will remain
where they will be able to protect them
selves and will not he induced to accept
offers of the Chinese government to es-
cort them to Ticn-tsin until they have
had communication with their govern
mcnts. Confidence is expressed, how
ever. that the Chinese government Will
soon see the necessity of accepting the
terms laid down in Secretary Hays note
to Consul Goodnow.
1t is stated that if all the international
forces in the vicinity of Taku can he
landed and the supplies brought up there
is sufficient force to overcome any army
which the Chinese may bring forward u

The drouth which has been prev
alent over nearly the whole of the
state for the past month, was broken
last night by heavy rain fall. The
thunder and lightning was very Sc
we're in this vicinity and the storm
was accompanied by some wind, but
nothing to what it was in Burlington
and other points on the lake. 1t is
raining today at frequent intervals
and it is hoped it will continue to do
SO till the streams and springs are all
filed. Great inconvenience has been
occasioned this paper and other users
OF electric power during the past week.
1t has been catch as catch can and
many mails have been missed as
result.
Burlington, Aug. This city was
the storm center last night and great
damage was done. Hundreds of trees
were blown down; the telegraph and
telephone services were crippled; the
electric cars were stopped by lumber,
poles and trees that were blown across
the tracks.
The storm burst ia full force at 7.30
in the evening. The Central Yer
mont station was partially unroofed
and much damage done to the build
ing. Many buildings in the city
were unroofed. The lightning struck
in many places. The electric light
wires were blown down and the city
left in total darkness for several
hours.
George Rumsey of Winooski was
struck by live wire and seriously in
jured. There were many other mar
row escapes. Several yachts were
out in the gale but all are said to have
reached a safe haven.
At Winooski the church was struck
by lightning and badly damaged.
The engine Of the 7.2o local was de-
rallied at the Porter Screen Works,
owing to lumber being blown across
the track. Several sheds and small
building we're blown down.
The Free Press was seriously Grip
pied by loss of power and lack of lights
and loss of its telegraph services ow-
ing to broken wires.

clearing l saw CHASTITY sight. l saw
it clearly, for at that very moment the
clouds parted, and the moon lighted
the scene. Psyche was tied fast to a
birch tree and lay dead, with a gaunt,
terrible expression in her eyes that
told me she had starved. Mortified, l
hurried back to the boat and jumped
in. The impetus pushed it out into the
lake, and the current, as has been cor

ing me just at the dock, as the same
drift had taken the young miller's boat.
