Where's the accent in this word?
 
At the very beginning; reasoning (in IPA symbols; ˈriːzənɪŋ)
 
No, the first one says the same. In IPA notation, the apostrophe is put before the stress. The one you mentioned puts the apostrophe after the stress. Since two different phonetic alphabets' notations are used on the same page, it's quite natural for one to be confused.
