BERLIN, April 2S.-A momentous
event OF eastern history turks almost
unnoticed behind a trivial incident
briefly recorded in a private telegram
received by an evening paper, saving
in effect that Mongolia, which a few

the Dalai Lama, has been warmly ex-
horfed by Yuan Shi kai to reconsider
It's decision, and enter as an autonom-
Gus state into the federal republic.
The Official reply, lust returned Of
fers food for reflection. and lustifes
the statement made some time ago that
the secession Of Mongolia was a fore.
gone conclusion The Mongolian gov.
ernment pleads the revolving misrule OF
the Manchus as adequate ground for 4
separation, which it characteriZes as
irrevocablc, hut. considering the large
percentage of Chinese traders in the
country, il is reluctant TO cut its con
Dection with China absolutely. The
unique link, however. by which the
present rulers of Mongolia are willing
TO connect the two countries is "A
treaty, but even that shall not be con
cluded directly. Negotiations must be
carried on through the intermediary OF
the Russian empire. which will repre-
sent and uphold Mongolia s integrity

Translated into terms Of interna-

independent and expressly recognizes
Russian suzerainty in matters of for
