Lonpon, June 1.—Details of the fight- ing at Taku are forwarded by tbe Exprers correspondent at Shanghai. The ships of the allied fleet consisted of the Yorktown, American; Algerian, British ; Altie, Gar- man ; Otago, Japanese ; and the Manda~ shur, Russian. Early on Sunday morning the forts opened fire and the Algerian and Altis were badly damaged, beirg etruck by Williams, aod J M Withycombe. Mr H J Cundall, Justice Fitzgerald, Justise Hodgson aid Mr Percy Pope. The re- port of the committee on religion in the public schools was presented and ex- pressed pleasure in the Bible securing a recognized place in the public school culriculum. The report of the Synod expenses to March 3let, 1900, was also presented and showed the receipts to bave been $673.88 and the disbursements $229.90. 1t was thought that the synod should adopt some method to collect the parish arrearages to its fund and even to secure legal power. QINo. 3 Co, 820d Battalion, will drill toe night. shells thirteen or fourteen times. The return fire of the fleet told immediately audthe forte were blown to pieces, the Chivese being afterwards driven back at the pointof the bayonet. The main body ofthe attacking force consisted of Rue~ ~ians, 10,000 having been landed at Taku. The magazine of the Russian gun-boat Mardashur is‘reported to have been blown up, seven blue-jackets being killed and many wounded. Altogether the Russiane appear to have lost 16 killed and 45'wounded, whereas the total casualties of other powers amounted Ouly to5 killed and 12 w unded. No casualties are reported to have occurred among the men of the American contin- gent. The Exprees correepondent says it is felt certain thatthe real explanation of the failure of Seymour’s expedition was the divided counsel among his motley force, only the American troops honestly co- Operating with the 3ritieh admiral, Berwin, June 19.—The German consu! at Chefu telegrapus that the Japanese tor. pdo boat from Taku bas brought the fo)- lowing : The Chinese laid torpedoes in Taku river and collected troops from Shan Pei Kwan, foreign commanders assembled on the Raesian flagship and addressed an ultimatum to the commanders of Taku forts summoning them io withdraw their troops before two o’clock, June 17. At one o’clock seventeen guns of the forie opened fire, to which the British, Russian, French aod Japanese warships replied. The bombardment lasted seven hours. a Two British ships in the river tetw2en the ranks of the Boxere and make their sup- fort» are reported to have been sunk. The pression still more difficult, telegraph line and railway between Tien Tsin and Taku were destroyed. Commu. nicaiion by water is a'so threatered. LATER. A semi-offisial despatch from Che Fu! announced that Taku forts had heeo cap- tured after a combined attack by the for eign warships. Three men on the German warship A'tie were kill d and seven were wounded, The despatch adds that foreign setilements at ‘Lien Tsin were being fired into by Chinese. When the despatch left nothing had been heard from the German detachment sent to Pekin, or from the German lega'ion there. Loxpon, June 19.—Lord Salisbury was questioned in the House of Lords on the Chinese situation, and said he regretted he was unable to ealighten the House re- garding the state of affairs in Chiaa. Admiral Seymour had returned to Tien Tain, but, the Government did not know exactly why nor what his intentions were. The failure of the international fo-cea to reach Pekin has greatly intensified the { } anxiety bere asto fate of the Europeans huddled together in the Legations at the | Chinese capitsl, and it is feared alco that the check to Admiral Seymours forces, nevessitatiog their return to Tien Tsin will lead to large accessions to the RovaL Baking y Powder Made from pure cream of tartar.
