LONDON, August IL, 3:45 n. ma
cabIegram to Vienna from Hong
Kong announces the capture OF
Pekin; but the Austrian government
without confirmation of this re-
port.
An official telegram dated Taku,
August 18th, has been received at
Rome, which asserts that the attack
ON Pekin began Monday, that Sir
Claude Macdonald, the British Min
lister, has opened communication
with the relieving force, and that
the allies have established their
headquarters at Tung Chau.
Chinese officials in Shanghai are
reported as admitting that the allies
inflicted "a heavy defeat on the Chi
nese imperial troops around TunG
Chau Sunday, and then marched
direct ON Pekin. This, if true, car
ries the Japanese official advices an
nouncing the capture of Tung Chau
one step further.
The western powers, according to a
despatch to the Daily Express from
Kobe, have accepted the proposals
formulated by Japan for arranging an
armistice, dependent upon the imme-
date delivery of the foreign legations
to the allies or the granting of permits
sion to the allied forces to enter Pc
king and to guard the legations. Upon
these bases the. correspondent says
Japan has already begun to negotiate.
Shanghai dispatches declare that the
Chinese had intended to make a final
attack upon the legations last Sunday,
but whether the plan was carried out
is not known there.
From Inc same place comes the re-
port that Vice Admiral Seymour and
Brig. Gen. Creaghey have Joined in the
protest against the withdrawal of the
British troops. All the morning pa
pers which comment on the subject ap-
peal to Lord Salisbury not to with
draw them and dilate upon the SER
ious results of such as action to Brit
ish prestige.
American negotiations looking to a
cessation Of hostilities also receive con-
siderable attention, favorable and
otherwise; but all the editorials agree
that too precipitate a withdrawal
from Pekin after the delivery of the
legations would have bad effect upon
tie Chinese minds.
Describing the capture of Ho-Si-Wu,
