"A new Teyolatien threatens ChIno
as the result Of Yuan Shih.Kai's ap
parent yielding TO the demands Of ia
pan.
Such is the statement Of d. ]. WI
dan, colonel-general In the Chinese
srmy and a man who has played i'm
portant roles In the emergence of the
republic from the Manchu monarchy
He Is in Honolulu now with the decla
ration that the men who fought sin
cerely for constitutional liberty before
are ready to do 10 again.
From statements made by Wudan tC
the StaP-Bulletin, he appears to be
in such strong sympathy with DR.. Sun
Yat Sen that he may be here as the
agent of the new freedom" for the
Celestials. Speaking fluently in Eng
lish, he has no hesitation IN talking
Of the revolution which he expects to
overthrow Yuan. .t.s. =.
China, still struggling in chaotic
helplessness with the affairs of her
new government and threatened with
the industrial domination veiled in the
recent demands OF Japan, Is about to
be plunged into another revolt which
win remove the traitor Yuan Shih-Kai
and his selfish regime and give re-
birth TO the popular republic as plan,
ned In 1911, he says In effect.
Wudan says he was president Of
the board of electors which elected DIR
Sun Vat Sen temporary president in
1911. He arrived In Honolulu on the
Siberia Monday.

partment or Nellie University, Japan,
and has come to Hawaii to investigate
Chinese conditions prior to continu-
alton OF study on the mainland.

Yuan Shih-Kai is doomed" says the
revolutionary leader His betrayal
of China to japan for his selfish in.
terests and the possibility of becom.
ing emperor of China is on the lips
OF the Chinese nation from eager
school boys to old sagaeious men.
Revolution this time will not be
an impassioned attempt merely to gain
control. Theneople are ready. What
prestige Yuan Shih-Kai has maintain
ed is fast being shattered by his dis.
regard OF public opinion. Every prov,
ince has been secretly organized so
that when Dr. Sun Vat Sen gives the
signal to his leaders the blow will be
struck from a united China"
When questioned regarding the pos
sIbility OF Japan aiding Yuan Shih.
Kai in queliing the revolution he re,
piled with the feryor Of intense pa
triotism: &E...
IL have received reliable information
from Peking that Yuan Shih-Kai in.
corporated the condition Of Japanese
support of his policy for concession
to the demands. Let them negotiate
If they like. Japan will deal with a
different China when the demands are
settled"
