Sought; People Are,
Suspicious.

were coolly and su%spiciously received.
Former Premier Chin Yung Peng has
left for Mukden to confer with Chang
Tsao Lin. governor of Feng Tien, with
a view to bringing about an early
peace.
1ndesc1bab1e confusion exists on
the railroad at. Yang Tshi, and at
the Feng Tfen railhesAl. The milf
tarists. are i~ntimidating the railway
men with the consequence that the
lines r badly consested.
While fighting to the south Of
Pektng has ceased, the advance Of
Feng Tfen troops or their way to
Picking continues.
Some trouble was experienced to-
day near Taku, southeast of Tien
Tsin, when an attempt was made to
disarm 1000 Kwang Tung troops who
had been >quartered there for several
years. They resisted and a thousand
of them escaped into the country WITH
their rifles, while the remainder were
disarmed after q lghtafrom lswhichga
number of casualties resulted
Reports that an airplane was used
for bombing Feng Tien troops are
confirmed. It appears the plane was
taken up by a Swiss mechanic who
had never flown before and that Is
bombs we're dropped from a height Of
nine thousand feet.
