ed August 1. says:
THE allies advanced toward Pekin today
1t is estimated that the expedition num-

It is hoped TO reach Pekin August II.
This is regarded as conirmatory of the
report published yesterday that the COM
bined forces had begun the march on the

here that the battle which yesterdays re-
ports stated had taken place eight miles
nese troops was the result merely of a
reconnaissance in force and was not gen
eral engagement between the allied troops
and the common enemy.
Nothing has been received here of a
positive nature to indicate as to who com
mands the allied army in its advance on
Pekn, but the impression prevails that
General Chaffee, the American commander,
is at the head of the movement
