Lennon. Aug. 8.—-Tbe Times has re.
solved the following account of the sink-
ing of the Chinese transport ch Shlng
from Chcfu, China: On July 95 the Jap«
ancse admiral. on the cruiser Mateusbima
Kan, with two of her men-of—war in his
command. sighted the Kow Shiug. which
was carrying 1,000 Chinese troops for Ko-
rea in Korean waters 40 miles off Che-
mulpo: lie signaled the Kow Shing to

The transport, which was flying the
British ensign. promptly came to anchor.
The Chinese man-of-wnr which was con.
sorting her stemncd away. The Kow
Shing’a captain. trusting to the protec-
tion of the British flag. refused the advice
of the commander of the Chinese cruiser
to slip hcr anchor. lie stationed a man
at the anchor chains and allowad no one
(also to go near them.
The officers of the Kow Shing signaled
to the Nanlwa requesting that another

bout arrived, Colonel von Hannckin ex-
plained the situation to the Japanese

boarding officer. He told him that the
Kow Shing had left China in time of
peace; that there had been no declaration
of War; that the vessel was a British ship
and sailed under a British flag. He then
urged the impossibility of executing the
order of the Naniwn's commander and
claimed that the flag should be rcspocted
and the ship escorted back to the Chinese
coast.
The boar-ding party returned to the
Nauiws, and is little later the Kow Shiug
was signaled by the cruiser. “Quit ship
as soon as possible." The Raw Shing ro-
plicd that it was impossible to quit ship.
The Naniwa thereupon flew an answer-
ing pennant. stenmcd quickly and lined
up. broadside on, at. a distance of about
200 meters from the Kow Shiug, and im-
mediatcly discharged atorpodo at her. fol-
lowing this with two broudsides with all
her guns. comprising two of 25 tons and
four of 10 tons
The excitement aboard the Kow Shing
was awful. Tho troops had begun fitting
up a number of small mountain guns
when the Naniwa threw the torpedo. The
missile struck. a coal bunker and burst
one of the boilers. the explosion bclng tor-
riflc, but not sufficient to sink the vessel.
Chinese Died Like Heroes.
The Chinese troops fired on the Naniwa
with rifles and small guns and exhibited
the greatest bravery. The Nanlwa con-
tinued to fire her to tonnsrs and soon had
the Kow Shing in a badly disabled condi-
tion. Many of the Chinese soldiers jump-
ed ovcrboard, and on thesc tho Nanlwa
rained bullets from her deadly machine
guns.
The Kow Shing gradually begun to
sink. and after 15 discharges from the
crulscr's big guns sho went down in eight
fathoms of water. The troops who remain-
ed aboard kcpt up their flro to the Very
last, some of their shots being aimed at
their own people who were swimming
away, they being determined that all
should die together. The vessel sunk stern
first, flying the red ensign of the Chinese.
One heavily armed boat was lowered
from the Nuuiwa, and from this a fire was
directed upon the troops struggling in the
water. There was no attempt to save life.
It was evident that no quarter was to be
given. All were to be massacred.
The Nuniwa steamed away to report
to the British consulate or naval officer
that seven Englishmen had been killed
A number of soldiers reached a rock and
were snvcd.

escape and arrived at Chemulpo in a Kc-
rcan fishing boat on July 25. He has

Had to Dink the Transport.
The second Chinese warship, the Ku-
wanii, had in the meantimeboen engaged
with the Japanese cruiser Akitsusu; but.
like the Chin-Yuan, she finally lied and
took refuge between the shore and school.
The transport carried six guns and had
1.100 soldiers on board. The captain of
the transport surrendered, but the sol-
dicra on board of her refuse to do so and
resisted capture. The Nani n was ulti-
mately obliged to open fire upon the trans-
port and ovontually sank her. The cap-
tain and others were rescued by tho boats

'It was afterward discovcrcd that the
transport was a British steamer, the Kow
Shiug. She had on board four chiefs of
army in addition to the soldiers refor-

The Japanese government, so soon as it
was informed of the sinking of thc‘ Brit-
ish ship. expressed its regrets, dcclnring
to the British charge d'uflairs that if aft-

the Japanese government was pmpared to
make full reparation for the loss sus-

the Sugar Schedule Have a... Decided
Upon by Democratic Senator'storklug
For a Compromise Agreement.
Wssmscros. Aug. 8.—It was stated by
one of the Democratic senate coufcrees
that there was a possibility of reaching an
agreement on the tariff bill about the end
of the week. with a probability that the
bill as finally agreed on would be reported
on Monday. It was found by the con-
forccs that they had a great many ques-
tions to go over and agree upon even after
the main points in dispute are settled. It
was stated by the house confcrccs that
they had not made as much progresses
they had hoped.
The agreement, when it comes, will be
a compromise, as both houses feel that
the concessions will have to be made. On
the great questions of difference—cochlron
am and sugar—there has been no agree-
ment, although it was understood that
diflcrent propositions were made yester-
day and rejected. It is believed. however,
that if the sugar schedule was disposed of
the other differences would not long be ul-
luwcd to stand in the way.

amount of concession which will be yield-
ed by the senators who have the bill in
charge was finally decided upon. It is pos-
sihlc that the other differences which ox-
ist were discussed at the conference.
The fact that the Democratic house can.
one was postponod is regarded asuvictory
for the house conforms, which gives them
a prestige in tho contest, although their
friends were confidant that in the event
r.’ a caucus it would result in an indcrse—
mcnt of the stand taken by them.
The counts managers. who do not like
to concede that thorn has been any waver-
ing in their lines, say that the house has
never bad an opportunity to pass upon
the senate bill and inferentialiy leave the
impression that tlwy expect a report not
of an entire agreement, but a dieagmc-
merit as to many mattcrs for which the
senate corriends, and that the bill will be
soar to the house in the hope that concur-
roncee may result. it was claimed that
this course was folt to be prcierrablc to
the caucus plan, and as the bill would be
in posscssiou of thohmlsc there would not
be a charge of discourtcsy to tho conicrscs.
In Senate and lichen.
Wasumnox, Aug. '..'.-—'l'hu main ques.
tion before the Sunnis) was tho sundry civ-
il bill, which was discusscd at odd uto—
meats throughout the day, with the ro-
sult that a great many important amend-
ments were adopted. Final action on the
billwas not reached. however, owing to
the large number of aiucndmeuts pro-
posed.
Among the more important of those
adopted were the appropriation of $175.-
000 for increasing the facilities of the
Philadelphia postoflice; making the calm
misslcncrs of immigration presidential
officers and fixing their terms at four
years; directing the secretary of war to
employ Confederate veterans of the bat-
tics of (‘nvttysburg and Chickamauga to
enlist in preparing the historical tablets
for those battlefields. and increasing the
appropriation for surveying the public
lands from $275,000 to $400,000.
A resolution. which went over, was in-
troducod by Mr. Chandler directing the
spacial committee now investigating the
ohargcs of bribery against senators to ex-
tend its inquiry so as to determine wheth«
or any officers of the government are in-
terested in the Dominion Coal company
of Nova Scotla and whether these officers
gave any assurances that the tariff duty
on coal would be repcalcd, and if so
whether they were taking steps focarry
out those assurances.
The house spent the whole day debating
the Moore-Funafuti contested election case
from tho Second Kansas district. Mr.
Funston the Republican contest/cc. made
a speech in his own behalf. The minority
resolution declaring Moore, the contest-
ant, not entitled and Funston. the con-
