 Shanghai, Nov. 13.-Aleging that Dr. Fun Vat Sen was striving to effect an alliance of China with Germany and the Moscow Soviet. government of Russia, the Hong Konk Telegraph has startled political China by it's sensa- tional charges.
 According to the Hong Kong paper, documents that reveal the purpose of the southern leader were found in a safe following Suns flight from Can ton after the revolt against him by the forces of General Chen Chung ming.
 In a formal written statement, Dr. Sun has answered the blast directed against him.
 The following is from a recent is sue of the Telegraph:
 Tt has long since been charged against Sun Yat Sen that he has em- braCed BOlSheVist doctrines. Up until now there has been lack of concrete proof, but today we are able to pub fish what we know to be irrefutable evidence that Sun Las been conspiring to bring about an alliance between China, German and Russia, based on Bolshevist ideas.
 When Sun Yat Sen and his officials fled from their homes on the night of General Chen's coup in Canton the Vice Minister of Finance left behind safe. In the safe were discovered certain letters, one being in Suns own handwriting, proving that negot1a- tions were then being carried on to
  ferred to. We have taken every step to ensure that they are genuine before giving them publicity.
 From the translatiCns it is reveal ed that the leading spirits in this movement are Sun and Admiral VOn Hintze the present German minister to Moscok and who was formerly Ger man minister to Picking. The corre- spondence shows that Sun and von Hintze were arranging to establish a bureau in Canton which was to be the headquarters for Bolshevik agents who were to be sent to China"
 In replying to the charges pr. Sun says;
 ''Dr Sun believes that China, at her present stage of modernization, stands in great need of assistance from DOW CTS who will treat and deal with her as an equal and a full soVerign state. He believes that Germany and Rus sia are now so circumstanced and governed that China can treat with them on terms of equality. He is, therefore, in favor of a policy looking toward a closer rapproChement with those two powers. He does not con- slider such policy would initiate against the legitimate interests of any power that desires a strong and united China. -. He might be dubbed pro- German or pro-Bolshevik- Those epithets of hate and revenge have no
 Regarding the charges that Sun contemplated Bolshevism in China he states:
 ''Dr. Sun says that the allegation is folish, because no one can really be- lieve that there exists in China the same historical and economic condi- tions which have pronounced the se- quence of events in Russia known as Bolshevism. The statement is false.
 A glance at his writing will show that he holds very strongly that effec- tive development and use of China's incalCulable resources neCeSsitates the cooperation of foreign -~~7tal and foreign technical assistance. He has made repeated offers for such co-op- eration in American, British and other quarters.
