weary defenders, charged shouting.
"The Japanese stood stubbornly to
the bayonet attack, but finally were
horne back in the whirl of the hand

behind them.
Later a false report that the Jap

Mrs. H. T. Ford Of the China Inland
Mission at Tai-kang, in the central
province of Honan, in letter to her
family, has some amusing things to
tell about the establishment OF the
Chinese Imperial Post in the pro-
vince, which is some weeks journey
from the coast. She says:
1--WE have got the Chinese Imperial
Post here now. At Kai-feng. when
they first got it, the post Office clerks
had a fight with some men who bought
stamps and wanted the clerks to lick
them and put them on the letters for
them. They said the clerks were
there to lick the stamps, and paid for
the business, and they wouldn't lick
them. But the clerks wouldn't agree
to lick them, so they came to blows
and the police had to come in and sep
arate them.

She declared that only the Eastern
mind could understand the deep, all

Liaowang.-A Russian correspond
ont. under date of Aug. 81, says:
1.-THE Japanese all day yesterday
carried on the fight with an energy
approaching desperation, but the Rus
SLAMS were buoyed up in the belief
that a point had been reached where
there would be no more retreating'
and the Japanese attacks were met
with shouts and hurrahs from the
trenches and the rifle pits.
Five times the japanese hurieu
themselves against our line, but each
time they were repulsed at the point
of the bayonet.
"There were about 1000 guns in ac'
ton on each side, but we have more
guns emplaced than have the Japan
ese.
"The losses cannot be computed, but
they have been great everywhere, es
pecially among the artillerymen. Fol

every officer was killed or wounded
and some of the guns were silenced alb

Excursion Train In Collision.

FRED HACKETT of Compton.
One unknown man,
As nearly as can be learned, the
disaster was caused by the fact that
two trains due at about the same time
are called officially by the Grand
| Trunk railway No 8, One comes from
| Island Pond, carr, ing the mails from
| Portland and Boston, while the other
, comes from Point Lewis. They are
| Joined at Richmond and run to Mon
| treal as one train.
| The conductor and engineer of the
! excursion train were given orders to
proceed as soon as No. arrived but
! forgetting there were two No. 8 trains
tu nrrt~o,-.'.- --~Aursion special pulled
| out for Sherbrooke as suv.--,s the
| train from Point Lewis and Danville
came in.
Before the excursion was out OF
sight of the station it was realized
| hoI
the train dispatcher and others about
the station tried to call the special
back but in vain.
The collision occurred within three
minutes of the time the excursion
train left the yards. The crash as the
trains came together head on was
heard by those running to the scene,
The first to reach the spot saw tan
eled mass of wreckage, the two loco
motives thrown partly from the track,
the one on train No. 5 almost demol'
ished, as the excursion locomotive
had piowed away the boiler to within
a few feet of the cab.
Two cars on each train mad tele-
scoped, and through the windows OF
one of the excursion cars protrnded
crushed and bleeding bodies.
The excursion train was crowded,
and the larger number of casualties
occurred in the forward cars OF that
train which telescoped.

STILL IN PROGRE SIS.
Big Battle Of Liaoyang Resumed at
Dawn OF Second Day.

Liaoyang.-The battle, which was re-
sumed at dawn Aug. 81 is still In pro
press, but the strength Of the cannon
ade does not equal that Of the day be-
fore.
The Japanese are getting around the
Russian left flank and the Russians
have effected an advance along the
railway to the southwark.
Over 500 900 men and 1900 guns are
engaged on both sides. Practically
the whole Russian force is in the firing
line.
One regiment which had just arrived
from Russia went into action with It's
band playing.
With the first gray Of dawn the ar
tllery opened and the firing soon eA'
tended along the entire line. The rain
ceased during the night and day broke
bright and clear. The Russians en-
tered the fight confident ri ui"t"",
AT % in the morning balloon
was sent up from one or the japanese
positions southeast of Liaoyang, max
ing target for the Russian mortar
batteries, but The shells did not reach
it.
The Russians made repeated BAY
onet advances on the road directly
south of Liaoyang,. where the Japanese
approached from Sanquaishin and Iao,
shelling the positions in the Russian
lines until in the afternoon, when
the engagement, which was general
throughout the south and southeast,
narrowed to the main line.
The Japanese advance on the south
east was by way of the Fengwang.
cheng road. Immediately in front OF
Chiaofantum the Japanese stubbornly
attempted to occupy round-topped
hill, which was literally shaved by
Russian shells. making repeated at
tempts the entire day, where apparent
" ii was impossible for anything to
live.
The cannonading continued from
this point to the vicinity Of Wang
paotai until this evening without ap'
parent advantage to either side. The
Japanese dropped shells within two or
three miles of the railroad station and
in the plain of Wentshu mountain
which is the most important eminence
around Liaoyang, but the japanese
abandoned aggression there on ac
count of the resistance they met.
The varied casualties here include
one Russian war correspondent
wounded, and also 25 Chinese women
from Chiaofantum, whom DR.. West
water, the distinguished missionary. is
caring for in the Chinese Red Cross
refuge.
The days developments show thai
the Russians are prepared for all emer
gencies.
Slow rain began to fall at noon, grad
ually Transforming the plain into
wilderness, through which the wound
ed, in carts and walking, are tonight
making their way to the hospitals
Considering the scale of the day:
operations the number of Russian
wounded is apparently small, while Tho
Japanese losses are believed to b'
great, especially where they were re
pulsed on the south road.
Chinese graves with trees are beini
levelled about Liaovang in order no
to interfere with the defence.

CONSTRUCTING Concealed Forts.

Cape Town.-Official information
from British Central Africa says that
the Congo Free State Is constructing
concealed forts of considerable mag
nitude on the western shore of lake
Tanganyika. and that one of these
forts, which is equipped with 20 guns,
IS within two hours of the German
frontier. 1t is believed that the Bel
gians apprehend a German invasion
A number of natives who are German
subjects have been expelled from the
Congo Free State.
1t is understood that negotiations
regarding the matter are now pro-
ceeding between Berlin and Brussels.
The west shore of lake Tanganyika
belongs to the Congo Free State, the
south shore to British Central Africa,
and the east shore to German East
Africa. The area of the lake Is es,i'
mated at $4,000 square miles.
