within the empire. Members Of the
premier's encourage reiterated today
that Yuan never will advise the alb

the formation Of a republic is un-

1t. had been suspected that Tang

were playing a prearranged game
with the intention of gradually shear
Ing the Manchus Of power and there

telegraphed friends here asking them
to persuade Yuan of the necessity to
accept a republic seemingly indicates
that Tang and the premier are not in
