After Hard Fight Walled City Succumbs
to Foreigners.
The allied forces who were repulsed
at Tientsin July 13 in an attack upon
the walled city renewed the fight July
IA and succeeded in capturing the city
and forts. The allies lost about 500
men. Chinese losses were heavy.
. The fact of the fall of Tientsin is
stated officially by Admiral Remey in a
dispatch to the Navy Department at
Washington. 1t was dated Chefu, July
u. He said:
"The city and forts (Of Tientsln)
are now in the hands of the allies"
Admiral Remey said the total losses
of the allies reported were 775. Of
these he said 215 were said to be
Americans, 40 Of the Marine Corps and
IFS of the Ninth Infantry. He was
of the opinion that the losses might be
exaggerated. Communication, he said,
was difficult, and he awaited more &C
curate information.
Press dispatches from London and
Shanghai confirm Admiral Remey's
cablegram. They say that the allies
battered down the walls of the native
city at Tientsin July IA, routed the
Chinese and took the city and forts.
The losses of the allies were placed
at 800 men.
WI Ting Fang, Chinese Minister at
Washington, has received a dispatch

saying that the foreign legations were

is July 5. 1t is peculiar that the au-
thority given for the dispatch is the
same as that given for the massacre
of foreigners two days ago.

italian Government in Receipt of Pro-
posaI for International Agreement.
Rome (By Cable).-The Government
has received a circular from M. Del
casse, the French Minister of Foreign
Affairs, which it is understood has been
dispatched to all the powers, proposing
an international agreement for joint
action in China and the future attitude
of the powers. The matter is still I'M
der consideration here. Lord Salisbury,
the British Premier, and Minister OF
Foreign Affairs, 1t is understood, has
already replied in friendly spirit.
The replies of the United States and
Russia have not yet reached M. Del
casse, nor has the reply of Germany.
The latter Government, it appears,
had previously made a somewhat SINH
lar proposal to the United States
alone. 1t is reported that President
Mckinley hesitates to join with the
other pations, but it is regarded as
practically assured that all the pow
ers. in view of the danger of the situa-
ton. will negotiate regarding M. Del
casses proposal and finally sign an
agreement on the Chinese question.
