This latter force, it was said has begun a siege of Sianyang and FanchenG. important cities north ; west of Hankow. The northern force was not expected to advance further east than kaifeng, Honan.
 The revolting 'Ironsides" regi- ment has switched it's march sud denly from Kwangsi, toward Canton, back toward Hankow, as if to con- tinue with the attack of the Kuo- mnchun, If it should reach that point.
 Meanwhile Chiang Kai-Shek, na- tionalist president and generalissirno has concentrated his choice troops at Hankow. He was expected to pro- ceed there yesterday but for some unexplained reason did not go. It was reported from that city the de- lenses of the privince. Hupeh, con- sisted of nine divisions of loyal troops and five brigadcs of Szechu anesc
 Government departments and ad- herents in Hankow were said to have complete confidence in the the ability of Chiang to surmount the crisis which faces his govern ment
 Adhcrents of the Fcng -Hsiang Tn Shanghai said today that Feng. with the pcrmissioin of Yen Hsi shan, model" governor of Shanhsi province, yesterday left that prov 1nce and re-entered Shensi. He pre- Vlously was reported arrested by Yen.
