CHINESE FIGHTING BOXERS
HELP ON AMERICAN SHIPS AND
OUR FORCES.
Terrible Loss Inflicted on an American
Column Reported by a Passenger
From Hongkong.

According to the passengers aboard
the steamer Hong Kong Maru the
Chinese aboard the American man
of-war are heart and soul with this ma
| ton ana are only too willing to fight
against the cruel Boxers on one of
the American cruisers which was re-
Gently stationed at Chong Kee in the
harbor of Yokohama every Chinaman
aboard, signed a paper asserting his
allegiance to the American flag and ex-
pressing the desire to accompany the
marines and bluejackets ashore to fight
the Boxers. So excited did the Chinese
become and so anxious did they appear
to accompany the men to the scene Of
the fighting that several We're allowed
to go. From reports subsequently re-
ceived the few Chinese who did accom-
pany the column stood their ground
with the white men and proved them
selves to be no mean allies.
The reports received from passengers
aboard the same vessel indicate that
the loss to the American forces in some
of the battles must have been much
heavier than is admitted by the war
and navy departments. Recent advices
from the seat of war state that the al
lies have already begun to censor dis
patches so 1t is very possible that the
administration may deem it wise not
to announce Immediately the losses
which the Americans actually sustained
! in the pitched battles around Tientsin
but to spread the list of fatalities over
greater length of time than a single
battle. \ messenger on the Hongkong
said that one of the American vessels
which was recently stationed at Yoko-
hama sent out a force of 300 men to
fight the Chinese. In the engagement
which ensued the Boxers and Chinese
troops offered a spirited resistance but
We're finally driven off. They lost heav-
lily but they likewise inflicted a terrible
loss upon the Americans for no less
than 200 men out of the command We're
either killed outright or wounded. The
commander of the expedition was re-
Iported shot twice through the breast
and mortally wounded. The passenger
did not remember the name of either
the officer who is shot or that of the
vessel but from what he says it must
have been one of the cruisers.

.BLANES CHINESE TROOPS
THEY ARE LEADING REVOLT
WITH THE BOXERS.
Commercial Man from Shanghai Thinks
Legations are Still Alive-Shanghai
Using Home Defence Guards.

Business is almost at a standstill in
China, especially the province where
Peking lies. Archibald Mac Killop who
has been representing Lilienthal & Co,
of san Francisco and Lii enthal i3ros.
of New York and London arrived mere
on the Hong Kong Maru and viii re
main over until the next vessel from
that line arrives, when he will continue
to San Francisco. Mr.. Mac Killop wasat
Shanghai at the outbreak of the Boxers
and the sudden rising caused him 10
change his plans completely.
II am well acquainted" he said, with
Mr.. Bainbridge, the secretary of the
American legation at Peking and early
in June, / planned to go to that city
and see him, combining business with
pleasure. The Boxer uprising came
along so suddenly that / soon found it
would be impossible to get there. My
first intention had been to go to Tien
Tsin and from there up to Peking but
the trouble got so warm at Tien Tsin
that | abandoned the idea of going
there either and remained in Shanghai
Business is dead in that part of
China. No body but the arm and am
munition people are doing any business.
The demand for pistols and guns of all
descriptions for private use became so
great in Shanghai that the supply soon
ran out. The men have been organizing
probably be no need of their fighting.
Personally 1 do not think that the
ministers have been killed There were
| all sorts of rumors at Shanghai about
| their fate and while the first reports
We're to the effect that the Boxers had
killed the members of the legations sub
| sequent advices indicate that the minis
ters and the attaches are yet alive. The
| policy of the Chinese government seems
to be now to use them as hostages and
force the civilized nations into keeping
their armies out of Peking. This the
allies will not submit to for I under
stand that they will march to Peking
at the earliest moment. Although much
| has been written about these Boxers the
real trouble has not been caused by
| them at all but by the Empress Dowa-
ger and this Prince Tuan. They have
caused the Chinese Imperial troops 10
side with the Boxers and, in fact, TO
! lead the revolt against the foreigners.
There is not the slightest doubt about
| this now. 1t is generally admitted TO
be so by the Chinese themselves.

FIERCE RIOT At PAPAALOA
FORTY JAPANESE ASSAULT !
LUNA.
Ordered to go to Work or Get out They
Attack Harry Shore Who Narrowly
Escapes.

HILO, August 11.-A serious riot at
Papaaloa on Tuesday of this week re-
suited in a narrow escape of the head
luna, Harry Shore, and one of the under
lunas, from a mob of about forty in
furiated Japanese, who refused either
to go to work or get out of their camp,
when they were given the choice by the
overseer. The latter then called upon
the under luna and they started in to
clean the strikers out of the camps;
but while they were going from camp
to camp the Japanese were collecting
their forces, and as they entered one of
the last camps the Japs came at them
i'm an angry mob. They cornered Mr..
Shore and his assistant and commenced
to assault them with hoe handles hoes.
and any weapon they could lay their
hands upon.
The two white men fought desperate
ly and after a very hot struggle they
got awey; the luna without a scratch,
but Mr.. Shore bauly cut on the head and
back. He received in fact three cuts
upon the head, one being very serious.
Sheriff Swain was telephoned for, and
on his arrival at Papaaloa swore In a
few natives and whites as special police
and advanced to the camp. In the
meantime the under luna had made
for home and gotten a rifle The doctor
had also arrived and having fixed up
Shores wounds had gone to the camp
to see if any Japs We're in need of medi-
cal aid. The luna not knowing of this,
or of the approach of Deputy Sheriff
Swain, fired his rifle outside the house
where the Japs We're, at which most of
them fled for their lives, dashing
through the doors and windows and
making for the cane. The doctor took
refuge under a bed.
Thus, unfortunately, a considerable
number of the rioters escaped, though
Mr. Swain and his force arrived just
about this time and succeeded in cap
turing twenty-one, who We're promptly
iugged and held for trial, to take place
as soon as Overseer Shore should be
well enough to appear in court.-Hilo
