A OHINIGE BATTLESHIP SUNK. two Other Chinese Vessel Captured or Destroyed, and China' Navy Is Greatly Weakened The Destruction of the ICow Shine Will tie Revenged. BnAXClllAt, Aug. 1. News has been re letved here of a desperate battle between Ihe fleets ot China and Japan, in which the Chinese were defeated, and the Chen Yuen, the largest battleship but one In Ihe Chinese service, was sunk, anil two either large Chinese vessels, sntd to be first class cruisers, were captured or destroyed. The battle was hotly contested, but the Japanese appear to have handled their puns, ships and torpedoes with more skill Minn the Chinese. The Chinese fleet engaged carried nearly 1,000 men, and a large number ot them are reported to have been killed or drowned. Few if any of the Chlueso en- paged In the battle escaped. Two Ger man officers. In command of the Chen Yueu, are reported to have met death with the crew of that vessel. The news of the battlo was received here by private telegrams from Tientsin, and it Is admitted that if the report is true it means thnt an end has been put to the Dower of China, so far as fighting Japan Upon the sea is concerned. Nat one of the remaining ships of China will dare show Itself out of port If It is true that the first class battleship Chen Yuen has been sunk by the Japanese. The two Chinese cruisers supposed to have been captured or destroyed during the engagement are the Chin Yuan and the Foo Chtng. The Chin Yuan was a protected cruiser, built at Elswlck, Eng laud. She had a displacement of 2,300 tons. The Foo Chlng was also au hngllsh built protected cruiser, very much simi lar to the Chin Yuan. She had a dis placement ot 2,500 tons, and was built of steel. FANATICISM IN CHINA. Dliorder Caused by Government Efforts to Stamp Out Plague. New York. Aug. 1. The Hev. John Gil lespie, D. D., corresponding secretary of the Presbyterian board of foreign mis sions, said at his ofllce, S3 Fifth avenue, that he had not yet received advices from China concerning the report that the American Presbyterian church at Shek Lung had been destroyed and one Chris tian killed. Dr. Gillespie gave an Interesting reason for the cause of the prevailing unrest In China. "Our property," ho said, "at Shek Lung Is under the general supervision of Ilev. B. C. Henry, D. D., who resides at Can ton. A native evangelist, in all proba bility, resides at Shek Lung and looks after our interests there. I received a let ter from Dr. Henry, from Canton, dated June 10, one day before the date of the dispatch announcing the destruction ol our property at Shek Lung. Dr. Henry wrlteB that the present un rest In China was caused by the severe measures adopted by the authorities in Hong Kong to stamp out the plague. Hundreds ot houses iu which the germs of disease lurked were razed to the ground, and the unfortunute victims of the scourge hastily burled without any sign to mark their graves. "These arbitrary orders and their speedy execution aroused the fanatical and su perstitious nation to a high stnte of ex citement. There was almost Immediately an exodus of more than 80,000 Chinese from the city of Hong Kong. "A report begun to circulate among the excltod natives to the effect that living men and women were beiug vivisected by the foreigners for medical purposes. This rumor spread through the interior with marvelous rapidity and incited the ignor ant and superstitious natives to deeds of yiolence directed against all foreigners. "To this cause Dr. Henry attributes the present unresr, and any assaults that may be committed upon the persons of the missionaries. In all probability the man killed at Shek Lung was a native." Chios Mow Mors Warlike. Pkkin, Aug. 1. A startling and pain ful impression has been caused in gov ernment circles nml also among tho mem bers of the diplomatic corps by the news of the sinking by a Japanese cruiser of the Chinese transport Kow Shing.aud the loss of so many lives. According to the reports received at Pekln only eleven men of the 2,000 aboard the Kow Shlug were saved. The attitude of the Chinese gov ernment since It learned of the loss of the troop ship has completely changed. Hitherto it has been inclined to be concil iatory, but the indications now are that she will pursue the war against Japan With the utmost vigor. Li Hung Cbaug, the viceroy, in an interview at Tientsin recently, declared that if war were pro voked China will fight to the bitter end. It is the opinion of all that the provoca tion has been given. I J Deadlock on an Appropriation mil. r WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.
