PEKING, May 24-Yang Tu, the
chief promoter of the society for the
preservation Of peace which fathered
the monarchial movement. has re-
signed from the state council, and
asked Yuan Shi-kai to relieve him
of all official duties and permit him
to return to his native home. Mr..
Yang. in addition to being a member
of the state council, was one of Yuan
Shi-kai's secretaries and is president
of the Hankow Improvement Conf
mission. The revolutionists have
been especially bitter in their de-
nunciation of Gang Tu because of
his Identification of the monarchical
movement in its very beginning. Al
though less than forty years old,
Yang Tu has been one of the most
successful business men in China.
He made large fortune in anthony
mining In Human province, and has
been prominent in politics for sew
eral years. Yang Tu's letter of res
ignation tosthe president follows:
ITO the great president: A year
has elapsed since took the post of
state councillor. Though I have ex-
erted myself to the uttermost in the
discharge of my duties, yet nothing

PICKING, May 24.-Yuan Shi-kai and
his advisers have great problem in
financing the central government with
the provinces splitting apart and de-
claring independence and allegiance to
the Yunnan movement. The military
expenditures are unusually heavy, as
many Of the soldiers are given double
pay and nearly seventy-five thousand
new recruits have been enlisted since
the beginning Of the revolution.
1t is estimated that the war expenses
OF the central government are a mil
lion dollars Mexican, or about 100000
gold. every day. !.
So far the revolutionists have not
seriously interfered with the revenue
Of the salt monopoly in the provinces
which have declared their indepen-
dence. This revenue is pledged as Sc
curity for the loan made to China by
Japanese, English, German, Russian
and French bankers. Consequently the
revolutionists have preferred not to
touch this money in order to avoid
international complications. But, as
has already been reported, the Japan
ese bankers have refused to turn over
to the central government its share of
the surplus from the earnings of the
salt monopoly, and It is now reported
that the English bankers have decided
to take the same step and will be
