She came at break of day, ** Her ball against the dawn, Blundering up the sleeping bay Before the nets were drawn. But Hittle we cared for that,
The cruiser olaimed our eyen- Har funnels and spars lay flat.
And the sir was full of cries.
Hi
On her bridge the captain stood,
eyes were staring wide, Lost in a madman's mood,
Searching the rosy tide.* The smoke from the lintered sticka Rolled over her decks in oloúdı.
In her armor were rents and cracks, In the water dugged her shrouds. We hailed, "Ahoy 4... nhôy !”
But her steersman never turned. He scraped the channel buoy,
And his eyes with madness burned. Her plates were shattered and bent,
One scrow was shot away ;
Broken and wounded she went-
Halt and lame, up the bay.
A wild face came to the rail,
Just aft of the broken guys;
He did not answer our bail,
But we saw the look in his eyes." Terror and wOATİNDES, *.
And the look of a deafened man--.
Ah, well! we could only guess
This ship had been in the van.
She had fought where the fight was worst,
With decks all splashed and strewn, When the shrill shells struck and burst,

An heroin incident of the battle was i fight in which a company of Japanere reserves was engaged while in pursuit of the Russians. They arrived two hour before their comrades and found tha selves in the rear of the enemy. They were immediately attacked, but fought until only one officer and half the com- pany were left when, their ammunition being exhausted, they fixed bayonets and prepared to charge, preferring death to surrender. But the opportune arrival of the main body of reserves altered the situation."
Two gunboats, two torpedo-boats, and four other armed vessels ssisted in the operations by demonstrations in the lower river based on Yongampo. The ments of these vessels generally promoted the ides that it was the Japanese intention to cross the Yalu near Antung,

MONDAY, JUNE 20,
FREIGHT MARKET:
In their Freight Circular dated June 18, Messrs Lamko and Rogge state ¦--
Since writing last on the 4th inst.,
large amount of chartering business has beon put through than during the proced ing period, but it cannot be said that the general aspect of affairs looks much brighter, though, the somewhat increased demand. for tonnage, which has shown itself of late, may in a measure help to bring rates of freight on a better basis again.
Regarding the Saigon market, it would scem from recout inquiries, that rice has been arriving more freely in Cholon, but it is said to be of very poor quality, stocks in the interior having been all more or less flooded and soaked; anyhow, the demand for tonnage has improved and some fresh chartering has come to pass, though closing quotations cannot be called anything botter than 15 cents per Picul as yet. There is however, hardly any prospect of procuring further tonnage at that rate, in fact, business can only be rendered practicable aguin at a considerable advance, the deten- tion caused by the existing quarantine be- ing such as to take away what little margin may be loft.
Rates from Saigon to Philipps, ports have continued to follow a downward ten- dency and at the moment nothing better than 28/29 cents per picul can be quoted, but it is to be hoped that the rather limited amount of tonnage suitable for this branch of the trade may help to bring about some improvement again. A few settlements are on record at 32/30 cents per picul, a higher rate having been secured by a steamer to load for Cebu.
From Saigon for Java or other destina- tion, there is no demand.
The Java sugar season has opened sinco, and the Charter of a steamer is reported at 32 conta per picul dry or wet sugar, to load at 3 porte for this.
Thero has been no fresh business from Bangkok to this and it is more than doubt
