DEATH IF WU
 IS CONFIRMED
Foreign Minister For Sur Yat Sen Was Chief Hope
 For Unification

AMOY, China, June 2S.- (Ry the Associated Press) s)-Confirmation of the report of the death of Wu Ting Fang, former minister to Washington, more recently foreign minister for Sun Vat Sen in the southern republi- can government, was received here by telegraph from Canton today. Wu had been one of the chief hopes of President Ii Yuan Hung for bringing about the unification of the north and south Chinese factions.
 Wu's death was hastened, it is be- lieved, by political worries, which have piled upon him since the disrup- tion of the southern government.
 He had given no reply to President Lis offer of premiership, move by which the veteran executive hoped to reconcile the recalcitrant southarners Wu was taken to the hospital from his home during the bombardment of Canton by gunboats of Dr. Sun Vat Sens navy.
