OPPOSITION IS GROWING STRONGER
Younghusbnnd's Party Finds Defenses
at Jong Extraordinary In Extent
' nnd Construction and Tries
Flank MoTenvenii.
NEW YORK, May Ik British troops
made a reconnalsanci In force on Wednes
day, says a dispatch from the Times corre
spondent at Gyang Tse, Thibet. The larger
part of the expeditionary force, which has
been halted before Jong for some days,
was taken by Colonel Brander to flank the
hills behind and to the east of the Thi
betans' stronghold. Te Jong monastery
on the mountain side was visited, because
It bad harbored the enemy's horsemen
two days ago, but was found to be Inhab
ited by aged monks from Gompa, and,
therefore, left unharmed.
No" opposition was offered by the Thi
betans until the column had nearly reached
the post, when a hot fire opened from Jong.
The fire continued for nearly an hour and
exoellent practice was made. The elevation
of Jong enabled the Thibetans to pour a
plunging fire and adds greatly to the range
of the'r weapons, whl6h have been fairly
accurate and effective since the Thibetans
got the range of the mission post. Ths
bombardment was renewed late Thursday
afternoon and kept up until dark.
Earlier In the day a village about 1,500
yards to the east, from which our chief
defenses could be enfiladed, was oocupied
and partially destroyed by the Thirty-second
pioneers, but the British force was
Insufficient to hold both places.
The Thibetans are reported to be ad
vancing lines on the plain under the pro
tection of fog.
Reinforcements of small parties have
been seen from time to time concentrating
by the Shiga tse and Lhassa roads, upon
Gysng Tse and the new fortifications at
Jong, which are extraordinary, both In ex
tent and excellence of construction, are
being carried on night and day.
Captain Parr's servants, captured tn a
recent sortie by the Thibetans, were put
to death with barbarity, being slowly out
to pieces.
