On the western front the Kaingsnites are this afternoon falling back on their headquarters at Changehov, which is threatened by a Chekiang advance west of Taihu Lake. The Chekiangites captured Ihing, 23 miles south of Changchow. There is no change on the southern and eastern fronts.

PEKIN, Sept. 12. In view of the measures which have been taken at Shanghai, no anxiety is felt for the safety of the settlements. Effective use has been made of barbed wire on various roads leading to the concessions, especially from the north and from the Chinese city. This system of defence can be extended quickly to other roads if necessary. Volunteers number close on 20Q0, and in addition between 400 and 500 ex-service men. mostly British, have offered their services in case of emergency. There are also 1200 marines.—Reuter.
