anything but walkover. japanese scouts
have discovered a large force of Chinese

force in the vicinity OF Lu-Tai, to the east
ward.
SEvEREST PENALTY INFLICTED.
''It is learned now that the members OF
the Tsung Ii Yamen who were put TO
death for their alleged pro-foreign pro-
olivities were not beheaded, but were cut in
twain. this being the severest penalty under
the Manchu code. Sheng declares that tie
Grand Council at Peking was ignorant Of
the orders for the execution"
A special dispatch from Shanghai, dated
Aug. 6. AYERS that the allies are making
slow progress towards Peking on account
of differences of opinion among the gen.
erals. The American, British and Japanese
commanders favor one plan, the dispatch
affirms, and the Russians, French and Ger
mans favor another plan. Prince Tuan, 1t
is added. seeks TO inspire his army by
proclamations, ordering every foot OF the
road from Tien-Tsin to Peking 20 be dis
puted. All the Chinese troops have evil
IDENTIFY been paid in full, and troops. money
and supplies are going to Peking from the
southern provinces. 1t is deemed quite
probable by military men In London that
the Chinese will make a fierce fight at Pc
king on a much greater scale than during
the defense of Tien-Tsin.
The anti-foreign party again has the up
per hand at Peking. According TO reports
emerging from Ii Hung Chang's lodgings
at Shanghai his baggage is packed pre-
paratory TO his departure for Picking. but
IL is added he has applied TO the throne for
twenty days sick leave. Ii Hung Chang
claims that his representations to the
Yang-Tse viceroys and Taotai Sheng will
be denounced by Ii Ping Hong because
they are friendly to the foreigners.
A news agency dispatch from Shanghai.
dated Aug. 6. says it is rumored that the
powerful viceroy Yung Shih Ki. Governor
of Shan-Tung. who disapproved OF Prince
Tuan, has been killed.
The parliamentary secretary Of the For
eign ONCE. Mr.. Broderick. said in the
House OF Commons that the government
had no information regarding the supposed
advance of British and other forces toward
Peking, nor to the present position OF
the foreign ministers there. adding that
communications both from the legations
and the relief force had 10 be borne by
runners and dispatch boats.
The first lord of the admiralty. Mr..
Goschen, said the colonial continsents in
China would consist of 200 officers and men
from Victoria. 300 officers and men from
New South Wales, and a gunboat and liz
officers and men from South Australia
The cost, he added. would be partly borne
by the colonies.

Details Extremely Meager, and Loss of the
Enemy Not Stated in Brief Messages.
Brunt of Fight Borne by Japanese and Russians-Des
perate Contest Expected at Tung- -Chow-CabIe-
grams from Remey and Taussig.

WASHINGTON, Aug. o.
Cablegrams received by the Navy
Department from Admiral Remey,
of the Asiatic squadron, and Com
mander Taussig, of the gunboat
Yorktown, both under date of Che
Foo, Aug. 6, indicate a battle was
fought by the allied army and the
Chinese at Pei-Tsang, on Sunday
morning. The allies numbered
10000, and their loss in killed and
wounded was /, 200. The casualties
of the Chinese must have been
heavy as they were forced to re-
treat. Pei-Tsang is the first rail-
way station north of Tien-Tsin.
Commander Taussig's cablegram
reads; British Fame reports, un-
official, an engagement at Pei
Tsang, on Sunday morning, from
3 to 1880 o'clock. Allied loss,
killed and wounded, 1000, chiefly
Russians and japanese. Chinese
retreating." The Fame is a fast
torpedo boat destroyer that is now
employed as a dispatch carrier
between Taku and Che-Foo.
Admiral Remey's message fol-
lows: Official report, believed
reliable, says about 10000 allies
heavily engaged Chinese at Pei
Tsang at daylight of the 5th inst. !"

MILES WANTS ACTIVE SERVICE.
He Is Said to Have Asked Permission
to Command i'm China.

NEW YORK, Aug. "a special to the
Herald from Washington says: cit Is
learned on excellent authority that Lieut..
Gen. Nelson A. Miles has recently applied
for service in China. His application has
not been granted. War Department Off
cials say that General Chaffee was sent to
China to command the American troops,
and to- relieve him at this time would be
a reflection upon his conduct of affairs
Friends of General Miles say that General
Miles in addition to his experience and abil-
ity has the rank to meet the commanding
officers of other troops upon the same foot
ing. They even go so far as to assert that
General Miless reputation would 20 far
toward causing the commanders of other
columns to defer TO his judgment and the
result would be a more effective co-opera-
ton. General Miles declines to discuss the
attitude of the War Department upon his
application, though he admitted that he
had indicated his willingness to serve in
the far East. He thinks the situation i'm
China is most serious, and. setting aside
all question of his own ambition, he is max
ing every effort to equip General Chaffee' IS
command to stand the rigors of the climate
and operate effectively"

A More Formidable Foe Than When

Special TO the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON. Aug. 6.-The first battle
of the allied forces with the Chinese who
are contesting their advance on Peking sur
prises no one on whom the lesson of the
fight at Tien-Tsin was not lost. 1t Is very
evident to military critics here that the
Chinese soldiers of to-day are very diff
ferent lot from the alarmed. badly trained
and undisciplined hordes who fell such
easy victims Of the japanese arms four
years ago. Now the Chinese are equipped
with modern weapons. and have been
trained and disciplined by European Off
GERS according to the best modern meth
ods The particular troops who opposed
the allies at Pei-Tsang are doubtless the
remnants of those who were driven out of
Tien-Tsin. reinforced by imperial troops
from Peking. IL is probable they had
thrown up earthworks and made out of the
mud village OF Pei-Tsang a really strong
defensible position.
From the meager information at hand

looks as though the advancing column.

In a desperate and prolonged fight That
success rested finally with allies is gratify-
ing. but II is matter of wonder in mill
tary circles that no effort apparently was
made to flank the enemy out of his posi-
ton II matters little that the Chinese
may have lost 1900 or 1900 men; they can
afford the loss. for they can easily replace

BEYOND REDEMPTION.
What Newport's 400" Did After Lis.
tening to Hamilton's Sermon.

NEW YORK, Aug. GA special to the
Press from Newport, r. l., says:
Society has answered the Rev Braddin
Hamilton, of New YORK, by engaging prac-
tically all the tables in the grillroom of
the Casino for next Sunday night, within
twenty-four hours of the time his rebuking
sermon was delivered. Three Sunday din
ners, presumably with bridge whist, were
announced to-day. Mr. Hamilton particu-
larly decried open dining parties on Sun
day, thereby hitting the Casino grillroom
which is becoming more and more taxed
every Sunday. About six hundred dined
there last night, and nearly twice as many
