Shanghai, Oct. ~. - General
Chang Tsao-Lin, governor of Feng-
Elem. has overthrown the Peking
government and proclaimed mon
archy. according to rumor cur
rent in this city. This rumor has
not besn authenticated, and no de-
tails have been received here, but
Chinese officials have been pro-
foundly stirred by it.
General Chang Tsao-Lin was
probably the strongest military
leader during the recent Chili-nnfu
conflict, and was accused of being
"a tool Of the Japanese.
1t is the supposition here that
the reported coup, is an effort to
restore to the throne former En-
