RULING DYNASTYS FATE
HANGS IN THE BALANCE
lncendiary Fires Have Rendered Hankow a
Scene of Desolation, and PopuIace is Ter
ror-Stricken--Garrison at Capital Honey
con1bed With Revolutionists.

PEKIN, Oct. 14.-China today
faces an unprecedented crisis. With
the spread of revolutionary activity,
the opinion is gaining ground that
the fate of the ruling dynasty hangs
in the balance
The revolution is no longer con-
lined to the central provinces, a
thousand miles away from the cap
ital. Pekin itself is threatened.
Members of the cabinet admitted
Yesterday that the garrison here is
known to be honeycombed with the
revolutionary sentiment.
The same condition exists in the
two great military posts which
guard the capital, Pea Ting Fund.
There are still official attempts to
minimize the gravity of the situa-
tion, but the reports reaching the
capital give little basis for hope.
Yesterdays news included reports
that Chung King was in danger,
that l-Chang had been taken, that
9o-Chow had fallen and that COM
munication between Hankow Chang
Sha, the capital of the Human PROV
ince, was interrupted.
An edict published yesterday Of
fers pardon to all revolutionists
who were coerced into joining the
revolution
The pardon is conditional, how
ever, on their expressing suitable re-
pentance for their detection.
The government yesterday follow
ed up its act of the day previous,
cashiering the viceray of WI Chang
by extending the same treatment to
General Chang Piao, the commander
of the troops in the Wu Chang dis
trict, where this weeks outbreak
began.
Every effort of the authorities
or the present will be concentrated
to provide adequate defense for the
capital of the empire.

for Fong Tai, suburb of thi.
city.
The government in its reports OF
the situation is attempting to con

the blame to the strikers, for they

the cars to saunter down the grade,
owing to the fact that the track is
level for a short distance at the
eastern end of the yards.

There remained the Faust Of Mr. lad

As to the former, il is only fair to say
that he was in far from good voice, and the
falsity Of his intonation was probably large

occasional bits of excellent singing IT was
not a performance such AS the Fausts of
time gone by would have recognized.
Then there was Miss Farrar. 1t was
