War Is Growing.
Gyang Use, Tibet, May 15.-British
troops made reconnaissance in force
on Wednesday. The larger part of the
expeditionary force, which has been
halted before Jong for some days, was
taken by Col. Brander to flank the
hills behind and to the east of the
Tibetan stronghold.
The Jong monastery on the noun
tain side was visited because it had
harbored the enemy's horsemen two

dark. Earlier in the day a village
about 1900 yards to the east, from
which our chief defense could be en-.
filaded, was occupied and partly de.
stroyed by the Thirty-second Pioneers,
