service In the face of a calling Chinese
fire, under which they lost heavily. The
Chinese were forced to retreat but saved
trelr guns. Their rear guard was attack
ed and practically decimated.
NEW YORK, August IA cable to the
Journal from Shanghai says: The allies
attacked Peitsang on August 9Th. The
Chinese were strongly intrenched on both
sides of the Pei-ho. The Chinese were
driven out after hard nghting OF seven
hours. They blew up the bridge In re-
firing. The japanese were exposed to n
whitening cross-fire in fording the river.
The British losses were sixty. The CHI
ncse are in full retreat, with the allies In
pursuit. but in great difficulties owing TO
tho fact that the river banks have been
cut and the country flooded.
Six thousand troops were left with
guns to guard Tien-Tsin. Two days

with heavy guns. An imperial edict or
