BOXERS ARE FIGHTING.
Chinese Situation Shows No
Sign Of Improvement.

Pekin, May 31-The situation is
somewhat better, troops having occu-
pied all disturbed localities. The party
rescued at Chan Sin Tein defended
themselves from a house and fired on
the boxers killing several. When the
troops of the relieving party arrived
the house was abandoned and the SOL
diers looted and burned it. Two men
and one woman are unaccounted for. 1t
is feared that they are in the hands of
the boxers" The gravest anxiety is
now felt as to the probable behavior of
the Chinese troops; most of them are
with the patriotic movement to drive
out the foreigners who are regarded
gradually absorbing China.
The Chinese authorities attempted to
throw obstacles in the way of bringing
the foreign guards to Pekin. The min
listers maintained a firm attitude and
today they were informed by the Tsung
Lii Yamen that it would be impossible
to bring up the guards until the Tsung
Lii Yamen had communicated with the
viceroy Of Pc Ipi Lii AS this was re-
garded as an obvious Subterfuge in the
interest of delay, the ministers replied
that if proper facilities were not grant
ed now the fifteen foreign war ships
at Taku would land a sufficient force
to come to Pekin without the consent of
Chinese government and they called
definite answer at or before six a. m.
(Thursday). This is expected to pro-
duce the desired effect.
London, May 31.-The Daily Mail has
received the following from Tein Tsin
dated May 80:
Heavy lighting has taken place be-
tween the imperial troops and the box
ers at Lai Shin Hi Sien, but the result
Pekin has been resumed. The foreign
| settlement here is sufficiently protected
by the American and japanese troops
which have been landed. Consequently
| the excitement has abated."
BELGIANS SAFE
Tien Tsin, May 3L-The rescue party
| of Frenchmen and Germans returned
| from Chang Hsin Tien this afternoon
| They confirm the report that besieged
| BeigianS are now safe at Pekin. They
| found several thousand boxers" about
! the ruins of Lukew Chiae and Chang
Hsin Tien stations. The bridges have
| been damaged and the rolling stock de-
| stroyed. At both places the damage
| done is considerably greater than at
| Fang Tai. The members of the rescue
| party saw several bodies of Chinese
| tearing up the sleepers, and in one case
! a mandarin was looking on. They fur
| ther report that the missionaries and
| others escaped from Pao Ting in boats.
The imperial railway directory is en-
| deavOring to faSten the blame for the
| damage at Fang Tai on the foreign en-
! ployes. principally the British, whom
they say should not have left their
| posts. The foreigners, however, did not
| leave until they saw IukoW Chiae sta
ton five miles away in flames and an
/ attack had actually been made on an
engine from Fang Tai which was run
/ ming on the Lu Han line in an attempt
| to rescue the Belgians.
