TELEGRAPH IMPROVED.
Company Increases Facilities for
Auto Tourists.

Increased telegraph facilities for mo-

been provided throughout the country,
the Western Union announced last

a result of the increased popularity
of automobile touring which has been
reflected in the larger volume of tele-

centers. Motorists can now send a

DRAWS JAPAN'S
WARNING NOTE
Toxic Sends Troops as Ma
tionaIiStS Move On
Chinese Capital.
BY MILES VAUGHN
United Press staff Correspondent

TOXIC, May 18.-Chinese Ma
tionalist troops today moved on
Pekin, bent on capture of the seat
of the Central Government. At the.
same time Japan made preparations
to protect the Nationals in Tientsin
and to prevent war in the northern
province of Manchuria.
All foreigners now in Pekin,
probably will be billetted within the
legation quarters. Japan is under
stood to have requested g clear zone
twenty miles around the quarters.
Only meager reports are coming
from Pekin as to the advance of
the southern armies.
Japan is prepared to protect its
Nationals in Tientsin, a city in the
line of the Nationalist advance
Japanese troops have been sta
toned there, but the government
has ordered immediate dispatch of
infantry, artillery and air force
groups to Tientsin. Reports said
the Northern general Chang T%o
Lin, was en- route to Tientsin.
Japan'S determination to prevent
the extension Of the Chinese civil
war to Manchuria, was announced
officially today.
The Government instructed its
minister at Pekin and its counsel
general at Shanghai to deliver to
Chang Tso-Lin, northern leader,
and Huang Flu, Nationalist foreign
minister, a memorandum that Japan
possibly may be constrained to take
appropriate and effective steps 10
maintain peace and order in Man
churia."
The announcement is regarded as
foreshadowing full Japanese inter
vention in the civil war in the event
that Nationalist take Tientsin and
Pekin, the northern capital, and try
TO pursue Chan Tso-Lins troops
northward toward Manchuria.
