New York, July 11.?Two battalion* of American troops are on their way to Tien Tsin to relieve the foreigners of that city. Japan is preparing to send 19,000 men to Taku immediately. Tien Tain is being bombarded by the Chinese, and heavy artil1 lery fighting is reported. The Russiana had nearly 200 killed. Nearly all Christian churchea at Liasyang and Kinchow are de stroyed. The imperial troops joined the Boxers in the work of destruction. Scotcb of native Christians were murdered in the district, but nearly every one of Mie American missionaries from inland places arrived safely at New Chwang. The imperial troops are marching on New Chwang. Uneasiness is felt. Tieu Tain, July 11.?Martial law is proclaimed here. 1'he al lies propose to reach the city and revenge the attack by the Chinese. Ten thousand Chinese were slain in the attack upon Tien Tsin; their bodies lie unburied where they fell. Seven thousand of the en- my fell in the fighting prior to the battles of the 3d, 4th and 6th. Three thousand were killed in those attacks. The fact that thousands of dead bodies lie unburied adds the threat of pestilence to the other horrors of the siege. On account of the food supply there is little hope of saving those at Pekin. It will take a long time before the ministers and Europeans are relieved. Tien Tsin is not safe from the Boxers. The diplomats and missionaries are in the British legation, which is unuer neavy nre. Che Foo, July 11.?A report from Wreohing tells of a a horn ble outrage by the Boxers, who burued the church af the London mission. which wag filled with helpless converts who had lied to ihe building for safety.

Loudon, July 11.?Although Shanghai repeats the statement that both the emperor and down ger empress are alive and tele grams from Chiuese officialdon again testify to the safety of the legations, these assertions nt longer stimulate hope here and pessimism will prevail as long ai the authorities, who, on their owr showing, are able to get message! 4l A. r.M 1 ?

According to a report frorr Shanghai the fighting at Tien Tsir on July 6 was the heaviest whicl has yet occurred, the Russiani alone burying 200 men. The alliei are becoming exhausted by con stant fighting. A dispatch from Canton says Li Rung Chang is keeping excellent order there. Robbers and piratet are executed publicly and fre quently and the people are cowec and afraid to disturb the peace.
