much less to a case of death.
It is, moreover, quite natural and logical that
everything should have passed of without serious
complications. because 1t was only at the Ciudad
Real that the plot developed at all. Elsewhere the
plan of the movement was never put into erect,
because rs soon as the disaffected elements re-

government and that complete order prevailed

arms and return to barracks without q single
shot being fired.

Jap PANESE DEMAND
NEWS FROM RUSSIA
Government Not Satisfied by
Assurance Given on Coun-
try'S Subjects.

BY the Associated Press.
TOXIC, December 1.-THE Japanese
government today informed the Russian
foreign office that Japan is not satisfied
with Scanty news concerning japanese
nationals in Northwestern Manchuria,
where Russian troops have occupied a
wide zone of the Khingan Mountains.
While an international train carrying
consular officers of several nations
rolled from Harbin toward the occupied
zone where the officers hope to con-
duct a f1rst-hand investigation, Japan,
through its embassy at Moscow, in
formed the Russian government that it
considers general assurances of the
safety of all Japanese as inadequate"
The Soviet government was further in
formed that details would be insisted
upon in the future.
Occupied by Troops.
The japanese embassy also called the
attention of Moscow to the recent state
ment of the Russian Ambassador at
Toxic to the effect that Soviet troops
have been withdrawn from Chinese ter
| y
plainly at variance with the facts, since
now a considerable portion of the Chi
neSe Eastern Railway zone Is occupied
by Russian troops.
Reports from many sources received
at authoritative quarters at Toxic indi-
cate the Soviet government Is looking
askance at the international train,
which is considered likely to encounter
difficulties on entering Russian con-
trolled territory. Consular officers Of
the United States, Japan, Great Britain,
France and Germany are aboard the
train, hoping to determine the condition
of their nationals in the area.
Possibility of an unpleasant Sino-
Japanese incident has arisen in connec-
ton with Tokio'S intention to appoint
Torikichi Obata, former Ambassador to
Turkey, as Minister to China. The
Japanese government asked Chinese ap-
proval of the appointment last week
and not having received a satisfactory
response has instructed the Japanese
consul at Nanking to press for an early
reply.
Reports Discounted.
Dispatches from China report consid-
cradle opposition to Obata, who was
charge d'affaireS at Peking in 1915 and
was prominently concerned in Japan's
famous Il demands on the Chinese gov
ernment at that time. Unoficial ad-
vices from Nanking said President
Chang Kai-Shek was too preoccupied
with Chinese internal dissension to
grant assent to the appointment. This
was discounted at Toxic.
Although official Japanese comment
has been confined to admission that the
situation is delicate" there is consid-
cradle anxiety lest difficult complications
develop.
