Over Boo Chinese Bodies Burled by the Japanese Near Kin Lien Chang;. Associated Press. San Francisco, Nov. 13. The steam ship Peru arrived tonight from Yoko hama bringing the following advices to the Associated Press: Yokohama, Oct. W.-MSen. Oyama's army left Japan October 18. The num ber of troops is estimated at little more than 20,000. They filled nearly B0 transports, and COO flat bottomed boats accompanied the flotilla to facilitate the landing. On October 24th the east coast of Llau Tung peninsula was reached. A considerable part of the force was put ashore at a point sup posed to be some, 40 miles north of Port Arthur, and a little north of the fortlfl.ed town of Kin Chao, or Chin Chut on the opposite coaat. The re mainder of the army passed around the extremity of the peninsula into the gulf of Pe-Chi-Li, and towards a desti nation not yet positively known to the public in Japan. The fleet under Ad miral Ito, moved simultaneously upon the stations at Port, Arthur and Ta. lien. The purpose was to hem in all the Chinese garrisons in the southern part, of Liu Tung and compel their surrender, aa well as that of Admiral Ting's squadrons. The native troops defending these positions were not be lieved to exceed 8,000 In number. These f.icts are telegraphed from Shanghai. The scene of operations is so remote that no direct Intelligence has been re ceived by the Japanese government. The mastery of the etronghalds which command one clde of the entrance to the Gulf of Pe-Chl-Lo, will give a pow erful advantage to Japan, and the pos session or destruction of the ships sheltered at Port Arthur will secur her undisputed control of Chinese wa ters; but the capture of a large body ofjtjldlers will be only a. burden, which; would bo gladly avoided were It po3 slble. ' Ceneral Yamaguta's army has signalized Its advance Into Manchuria by the seizure of the walled town of Kew Leen of Shle Lien. The attack waa so poorly met that the encounter could scarcely be called a battle. The crossing of the Yalu river was complet ed on the morning of October 25th, and wa3 followed by a succession of skir mishes in which the Japanese lost 7o killed and wounded. Kew Leen fell October 26th. The defending force was estimated variously at from 10,000 as 16,000, all of whom ran away at tha first onset of the assailants. The Jap anese casualltles were about 20 killed and 80 wounded. Of the Chinese 200 are reported killed. The spoils wen of 'great value, Including 30 large can nan, thousands of small arms, and abundance of ammunition, 300 tents and quantities of provisions and fodder. The assault was led by Col. Sato. The fugitives are expected to rally at Hong Wong, a fortified city on the road to Moukdc-n, and little more than half way between that ancient capital and Kew Leen. There a strong force Is under stood to be gathering. The particulars of the movements In Manchuria are obtained- with difficulty, owing to the excessive sensitiveness of the Japanese authorities to charges of disseminating falsi new3, which has been brought against them abroad. Advices from Tien Tfln announce that the Chinese have secured from the Hong Kon? and Shanghai bank a loan of 10,000,000 taelf, at seven per cent. With thla money several ships for the Chinese -navy are to be purchased if the present Intention is carried out. The exodus of foreign ers from Peking continues. The Brit lsh minister pcremptorial Ordered his countrymen to leave, and If any aliens remain It will be without the sanction of their diplomatic representatives, vho do not undertake to guarantee their safety. Not foreigners alone, but great numbrra of wealthy natives are for saking their homes and seeking shel ter In cities nearer the coast. Even Tien Tain and Chee Foo are considered undesirable places of abode, and liun. dreds of families are on their way to Shanghai. The only European in the Chines service who lingers at Peking Is Sir Robert Hart, chief of the cus toms si a IT, andvJie, It is said, will cling to his p(ost to the last extremity. A severe earthquake occurred In the nor thern provinces of the main island of Japan on October 22d. More than 300 persons were killed. The town of 8a kata was almost entirely destroyed. YAMAGATA'S REPORT. Wrosehima. Nov. 13. Field Marshal Tamagata's repcrt dated Klu Lien Chang November 10th. says there are n Chinese In that vicinity. He adds the losses of the Chftiese In that nelg'o- borhood are not fully known, but the bodies of over 500 Chinese have been burled by the Japanese. A great num ber of bodies of Chinese have been found In the Aiku river. TO SEARCH FOR THE IVANIIOE. The Richard Rush Ordered North for that Purpose. Seattle, ..ov. 13.

Chicago, Nov. 13.-The Railway Ago in iia nexi itwue win coni&in a repiy to tha report of the United States strike commission, addressed to those gentlemen, ln which It Is charged they are guilty of many errors and mis statements of facts. It concludes by saying: "The curious accident that the mlsstatesments of fact are all on the same side tll tending to throw dis credit upon corporations and to In crease the bitterness of the laboring classes against capital Is an accident from which one would prefer not to draw Inferences. One, conclusion only may be drawn, which Is, that no mat ter on what side the errors are, the mere existence of such errors, though many and of such enormity, alono suf fice to make the report entirely worth- 41 . - . -. - - - -- " !
