CONTINUES HIS
HOSTILE MARCH
President Sun Vat Sen Does Not
Favor Reuniting Northern
and Southern Republics.
tay Lie AssoeIatea Preasl

PEMNG, June 9.-sun vat Sen,
president of the South China repub-
lie who so far has failed to reply to
proposals to join Wu Pei Flu and mem
bers of the old republican parliament
in their program to reunite the north
and south, Is reported continuing his
hostile march northward at the head
Of 10000 men.
Sun Yat Sen with his troops Is re-
ported to have reached Kanchow, pro-
vince of Kiangsi, from which he is
expected to launch a drive against
ENanchang, capital Of Kiangsi 1t Is re-
lported that the capture of Nanchang
would be followed by a descent into
the Yangtze river valley.
Advices from the south indicate that
sun who backed Chang Tso Lin, loser
in the recent short lived campaign,
lstill remains hostile to the victor, WI
IPei Flu. Sun also is expected to ques-
tion the legality Of the session of the
republic parliament held yesterday at
Tientsin.
The present situation in China ap-
pears to indicate that Sun Yat Sen
stands between two fires. TO the
north is Wa Pei Flu, backed b a well
trained army flushed with 20 recent
victory over Chang Tso Lin. At Wu's
back is Tsao Tun military power Of
the north and the members of the old
republican parliament of China. To the
south is Chen Chung Ming, outstand-
ing military leader in that territory
formerly a supporter of Sun Yat SEN
but who few days ago demanded
that Sun resign the presidency Of the
South China republic. Chen's troops
are said to be between sun and his
capital at Canton.

annual army appropriation bill was
passed late today by the senate It
fixes the size Of the army for the next
year at an average of 1880 officers
and 1S3. 900 men.

out a record vote, followed quickly
nfter a test vote by which the senate
accepted 40 to 81, its committees ac-
tion in increasing the house figures on
the size of the army from $4,000 to
1873, 600 enlisted men.
The strength of 1880 officers com
pares with 1000 as voted by the
house.
The senate disposed of the bill
speedily, the measure being taken up
for the first time today and passed
within six hours. All committee
amendments except fhose affecting
the size of the army were acted upon
within three hours, constituting what
was regarded as almost record by

man Wadsworth of the military COM
nittee. in charge of the bill pressed
for the committee figure and was sus-
tanned as was the committee action
on every other amendment TO the

The measure now goes to conference
with the house, but it is not expected
that the discussion will begin before

the army, the proposition causing most
debate was the amendment submitted

ating $500 900 for continuation OF
work on the Muscle Shoals federal
power project, which the senate ac-
cepted without a record vote after a
parliamentary tangle which lasted for
an hour.
The Muscle Shoals amendment
promised for a time to re-open the
whole question Of the governments
policy with respect to the power pro-
iect but Chairman Norris of the agri-
culture committee declared that no
policy had been determined and that
to delay work further on dam number
two in the Tennessee river would be
an economic crime.
