CHINA TO SEND 10000
TO PROTECT FRONTIER
Decided at Special Military Confer
ence-May Later Advance

BY WILLIAM r. GILES.
CabieErnm to The Evening Star and
ChtcaEo Daily News. Copyright, 1918.

PEk1NG, China, March AT the
close of a special military conference
1t was decided that China should send
10000 troops to protect it's frontiers
and perhaps later advance into ST.
IBERIA. Japan intends sending two di-
visions and the Chinese have asked
Japan to acquaint them with the
measures they intend to adopt and the
probable date of mobilization. Their
purpose Is to secure uniform action. The
Chinese force will be commanded by
Gen Tuan Che-kwei. The Japanese
say they are unable to make any def
mite statement until the rest of the
allies signify their intentions toward
the Siberian question. 1t is still hoped
that the allies will take joint action.
During my correspondents investiga-
ton of Siberia it was ascertained that
an international force would be well
coined, but a purely Japanese force
would be opposed by the people, the
Russo Japanese war being still fresh
in the memory. Gen. Semenoff sug-
gested that a small allied force should
hold the railway and Vladivostok,
while a Russian force, financed and
armed by the allies, should operate
nilitarily against the bolSheViki A
small international force would give
him the necessary moral support to
secure a large following in the quick
est possible tina
