HITCH IN PEACE
y EGOTTATIONS

London, Dec. 27.-A special dis
patch to the Exchange Telegraph says
the present hitch in the Chinese peace
negotiations is due to Yuan Shi Kai's
aerssn ! ,has he he. elected r2-e:iacr OF
the republic for ten years. Tie revo-
lutions refuse to accept republican
government under the condition, in
sisting that the people must choose
their own chief executive.
Toxic, Dec 27.-Prcmier Yuan Shi
Ki is considering the adyisability OF
resigning as soon as he makes the best
terms possible with the rcvolutionists
according to u dispatch today from
Pekin.
A number OF Manchu princes have
told the premier, the dispatch says,
that they are ready to abdicate realiz.
ing that it is useless to iold out for the
retention OF the present dynasty.
Youau is reported to be dissatisfied
with the conduct OF his representative
Tang Shao Wi in the peace conference.
He believes that Tang has turned
traitor to the imperialists and is fish
ing" for the presidency of the proposed
republic.
Well elliuforned Japanese believe Yuan
Shi Kai proposed plan of holding 4
convention OF delegates from all the
provinces to decide upon the form OF
the future government will fail. 1t is
believed here the revolutionists are too
impatient to await the outcome OF a
conventian wbica it would require
many weeks to assemble. In addition.
the rebels fear Yuan is only playing
for time in the hope that i;e may be
able to iIoat big loan which would en-
able him to bolster up the imperial
army.
