TOXIC BELIEVES YUAN +.
NEAR END OF HIS ROPE
Idea OF Intervention Secuted BY

tAssocis.sd Press by Federal wireless. /,

TOXIC, April 1.-THE newspapers
of North China, and particularly of
Peking, are becoming seriously alarmed
over the reports of the treaty between
Russia and Japan. These reports de-
clare that the agreement gives Japan
complete control of the political and
economic situation in the Far East. 1t
is claimed that the Cars great need
of munitions and other war. materials
brought about the agreement. Ea
The belief here is that the revolution
is rapidly nearing the climax, and that
IT is becoming increasingly difficult for
Yuan Shihkai to maintain his position
as president of the republic. Official
opinion appears to be set against the
idea of intervention in Chinese affairs,
unless, as one official expressed it yes.
terday japanese lives are endangered.
If Intervention should be undertaken,
it was said, Nippon will act probably
as the representative of the allied pow
ers as well as in her own interests.
This statement, it was pointed. out, does
not mean that the rumor that the En-
tente has granted japan free hand
in the Orient has any basis on fact. On
the other hand the report il secuted in
well informed circles here.

SEE CHUEN PROVINCE is
ABOUT TO JOIN REVOLT
Especial Cablegram to Nippu Jill }

TOXIC, April l3.-The province of
Sze Chuen is expected to declare in
dependence of Yuan Shih kai within the
next few days. The revolutionists have
taken all of the monarchial stronghOlds
with the exception of one city, and it Il
expected that the military governor
will announce the independence at any
time. SEE Chuen Is the largest province
in China.
Yuan is trying to spread the rumor
that Japan will stand with government
party against the revOlutionists. He
stated today that he would not resign,
and limited that if the revolutiOnists
did not cease their attacks Japan would
step in and defeat the revolutionary
army.
In Toxic the assertion made bv
Yuan is not taken seriously, as Japan
has remained neutral throughout the
conflict, and the leaders here state
that Japan will take no part in the
Chinese question. The opinion ap.
pears to be in Toxic circles that the
revolutionists have big advantage at
the present time. Word has been re-
ceived that Chikiang has declared indie
pendence.

Aero Scouts Ordered Ahead
Aeroplane scouts have been ordered
ahead with the extreme advance
guards, and as the country into which
the columns have now penetrated, is
lower and less cut up by forests and
mountains, air scouting has become
easier.
The burden of guarding his own
lines of supplies has been laid upon
Pershing by General Funston, and it
was announced at the San Antonio head
quarters last night that all movem onts
of Mexican troops within the sphere
of his onerations are to be investigated
by the head of the expedition, in ad-
dition to the main object of his march,
the Capture Of Villa.

American troops, and that it is posi-

At ColOnia Doublan, the scouts have
discovered an important Villista base.
There are semi circular trenches, guard
ed by machine guns and artillery, the
whole well concealed.

injured so far as is known.

TSEN CHUN HSUAN MAY
BE YUANS SUCCESSOR
Especial oablogram TO Nippu JijtJ

TOXIC, April l3.-According to an
authentic report from Canton, Tsen
Chun Hsuan will be elected to head the
new republican government which will
be formed from the provinces now indie.
pendent of the Yuan government.
Tsen Chun Hsuan is one of the lead
ing diplomats of China and has made
a name for himself in international af-
fairs. He was the instigator of the
second revolution, and when the reb-
els were defeated he fled to Singapore,
where he became active in planning
for another revolution after Yuan
Shih kai had announced that he
wished to become emperor.
1t is thought that Tsen Chun Hsuan
will be the logical choice for premier,
in case DR.. Sun Vat Sen is given the
presidency, if Yuan is defeated.

Evidence That Torpedo Caused

WASHINGTON. April a.
" Despite official denials of re-
sponsibility by the Berlin govern
ment. the United States will demand
that Germany unequivocally admits
its responsibility for the attack up
on and damaging of the British
Channel steamer Sussex. So much
was admitted in official circles here
last night. 1t was alsojsaid that iin-
less Berlin admits the guilt Of the
submarine commander that attacked
the Sussex. and punishes the Of
ficer, the United States -is nrenared
to take drastic action at once.
The submarine situation, now
more than a year old, has seen no
more acute crisis than that caused
by the attack upon the Sussex by
a Teutonic submarine. Evidence
to the contrary, Wilhelmstrasse has
denied officially and unofhcially
that one of the German divers was
responsible for the mid-chaiinel as
Sault. &a
Evidence Seems Conclusive =.
Testimony of American passen-
gers, and the collection of addition
al evidence by American consular
officials abroad, as well as the evil
dcnce gathered by France and Great
Britain, proved overwhelming, in
the opinion of the administration, it
was said last night. .'].
The finding of bits ofthe torpedo
that partially wrecked the steamer,
and the announcement in Paris that
the French government has secured
the name of the commander of the
submarine and the number of his
underwater craft, put the capstone
upon the edifce Of evidence that
has been built up.
Cabinets To Consider Issue
The President, it was announced
that night. has decided to call a
special meeting of the cabinet in
the White House this morning, in
order to submit all of the evidence
in the case to his official family, and
to discuss the best means of meet
ing the situation, and the action to

a Jefferson banquet of Democrats
