GENEVA, May 15.-For "purely
informative purposes, Japan to-
day submitted to the League of
Nations copies of two declarations
made by the government at Tokyo.
One explained the necessity for
sending military and naval forces
to Shantung Province, China. The
other affirmed Japan S intention to
withdraw the forces when they no
longer were needed.
This was the first official intima-
tion the league had had of the
japanese Chinese crisis since the
Chinese Nationalist government g

WATCHING
ADV AN CE
Capture of Tientsin and
Peking by Nati0nalists
Due Any Moment.
CHANG RETREATING
Believe Northern Leader
Will Retire Toward
Manchuria.
By MILES w. VAUGHN

TOKYO, May 15.-Japanese Of
ficials today maintained a careful
watch on the steady advance of the
Chinese Nationalist armies on Pc
king and Tientsin, both of which
may fall before the southerners
with little or no opposition.
The capture of Peking is expected
momentarily and it was questioned
here whether General Chang Tso-
Lin, the Manchurian leader and
head of the northern faction, would
oppose strenuously the occupation
of the central government capital.
Chang is expected to retire to
Manchuria and latest advices said
his northern forces were retreating
slowly.
Relations between the Japanese
and Chinese were quiet today. From
Tsinan came reports that the Jap
anese consul general had arranged
with the Chinese for maintaining
peace.
1t was in Tsinan that the Japan
ese routed the Nationalist forces re-
Gently after bitter engagements in
which there were a number of cas-
ualties. The Chinese eventually
evacuated the city and continued
their drive toward Peking.
At Tientsin already there are a
number of troops, including many
japanese marines.
Latest reports here were that the
Nationalist leaders indicated the re-
cent difficulties with the Japanese
at Tsinan were caused by enemies
of General Chang Kai-Shek, leader
of the Nationalist group. Some rec
ords dispute this claim.
Also it was said here that General
Hoy Act-Su, whose troops are al
legged to have originated the trouble
with the japanese at Tsinan, had
been dismissed from the National
ist forces.
