The death of the Emperor of China has not caused
revolution to break out as was expected Using the
expression of the veteran of
Emperor's Death the great Civil War of the
Did Not Disturb United States, "All is quiet
along the Potomac" Prince
Chun, brother of the dead Emporer, has been elevated
to the regency of the empire general revolution has
been threatened in China for many months and it was
freely predicted that the time for it would be ripe at
the death of Kwang Hau. 1t was generally believed
that the revolutionary spirit being fostered by the
Japanese government with the hope of that govern
ment getting an excuse to not only divide the Chi
nese government but bring the entire empire under
Japanese control the same Korea. So aggressive
have the Japanese become that Secretary Root of
Roosevelts cabinet, recently addressed note to the
Japanese government asking to explain its actions in
Manchuria, which note, it is said has to an extent
brought about strained relations between this and the
Japanese governments So far the Chinese con-
cerned, however, the government is moving
smoothly and unless outside power wifuy kicks
up among the natives immediate revolution
is in sight.
