thousand imperial troops and
Boxers made a determined attack
I upon Tien Tsin on the the 3rd and

! severo yet done at the beleaguered
city. The Chinese tired upon the
city ntith a hundred guns from
[ West, North and East. But for
the newly arrived Japanese contingent
and additional Russian
guns recently received, the enemy
I surely would have gotten inside
the lines. The defenders numbercd
14,000, and lost heavily. One
: Rus-ian company suffered 120
casualties. About 150 sheila fell
into the European city, damaging
j many houses. The women and
children were sheltered in cellars,
public buildings and hotels.
The twelve pound gun Terrible
was put into action and tho
Chine-e compelled it to withdraw
i by exploding two shells under it.
{ French guns took its place, and
were likewise ai'enced.

spocting the Chinese troubles.
This circular of ins ruction was
drawn up on the dOth of .lone and
submitted to Canton for tho up
proval of the President and com*,
tun mention to tho powers concerned
on the did of .July. It cm?
I
i bodies the views to which this I

I from the verv becunninrr nf the
- - ^ r* r* *'*"w I
| present trouble and which the dif*1
! fercnt powers have one by one;
| taken into favorable considcra*
.lion. The view announced at the
start by the President, that we
did not consider ourselves at war
with tlie Chinese nation, and that
nil our efforts should be directed I
i to localizing the disturbances in
} the province of Chi Li and keep I,
ing them from spreadingtlnough!
out the empire by enlisting on
the side of peace the powerful
viceroys of central and southern
China, has now apparently been
adopted by all the other ultimate
results of these oolicv. but thus
far the indications are all favori
able. It will l?e seen that no
i
answer from the different powers
j was required or expected to the
circular of duly old, Imt it is'
understood that it has heen everywhere
l'avoiahlv received and that
no objection- have heen made to
it in any quarter. It is nut true'
that there ha- heen any formation
of groups or combination of h
powers of any sort whatever. It
may he positively asserted, for
instance, that the eo-operotion of
France and the 1'nited State- haii
been most constant and cordial.
