today that Generalissimo Chiang

today that Generalissimo Chiane Kai-shek had escaped from his captors at sian-Fu, in shensi prov- ince, and has flown to Nanking in safety.
 Chinese military sources regarded as ordinarily reliable said at Peipins that 8 subordinate of Marshal Chang Hsueh had staged counter revolt at Sian-Fu and released Generalissimo Chiang. The Chi nese claimed that the young gen. eral" himself was now detained" by Chiang Kai-Shek.
 Start of Insurrection
 The initial insurrection led by Marshal Chang at Sian-Fu over the weekend was described by g high Chinese of1cial in the central gov- ernment this afternoon as direct result of criticism of the marshal's desultory drive against Chinese communists in Shensi province.
 Judging from the facts so far available" the official at Nanking said, Marshal Chang's command at Sian-Fu effected some arrange ment with the reds, claiming the object was to fight Japan.
 "The spark of the revolt without doubt was fired by the generalis- simo's outspoken direct criticism of the failure of the Chang command to press the anti-communist cam paign. For sometime, this com mand's participation in the red drive in China has been negative.
 Impossible to Forecast
 Tt is impossible to forecast the consequences, since there are not sufficient details yet available. The central government has ordered the punishment of Marshal Chang Hsueh-Liang, and deprived him of all his positions"
 One of Marshal Chang's demands made when he seized the general .issimo in Shensi was that the kuomintang (people's party) in con- trol of the Nanking government, again admit Chinese communists to membership.

Edward rose at 8. m. toOay III the ancient castle of his host, Baron Eugene Rothschild on steep rock rising hgih from the Danube plain from a spur of the Wienerwald mountains.
 He breakfaSted alone, as is the castle custom, and then began to deal with his heavy correspondence. He asked eagerly, on his arrival in Vienna last night, for messages and was grateful when he was handed a big bundle of telegrams. Still Royal Highness
 Villagers have been warned to pay no attention to "a certain MT. Ed- ward" But so far as Enzesfeld is concerned he has not even abdicat- ed. He is your royal highness when he is addressed directly. But behind his back he is "king" still. Castle servants so refer to him over the telephone or in conversation in the village. :.
 His presence has caused Q hotel boom here in what is called the Vienna Forest. Tourists, as well as newspaper correspondents, have flocked in such number to Enzesfeld and nearby villages that 8 heavy detail of policemen and gendarmes with bayonetter rifles arrived this morning.
 His First Statement

 T am perfectly happy with my journey. I have enjoyed the trip and wish to thank everyone for their consideration. have no plans for the future except to stay for time as 8 guest of Austria"
 It was understood that he would remain over the Christmas holidays at least. He had skis as well as golf clubs in his exclusive luggage, and it seemed likely he might go to winter resort.
 It was rumored that Mrs. Simpson might soon be a guest of Princess Ileana of Rumania, the wife Of Archduke Anton of Austria-Hun- gary, at Sonnber castle 30 miles from Enzesfeld. But 1t has been as- serted emphatically in behalf of both Mrs. Simpson and the Duke that they do not intend to meet un- til her divorce has been made final she hopes at the end of April.
 The Duke was understood to have telephoned Mrs. Simpson, at Cannes, soon after his arrival.
 It was noted that his equerry, Col. Legh. still called him Prince Ed ward"

 More Runners
 It was believed that Mrs. Simpson might take over the villa at which she is staying, and that her hosts MT. and Mrs. Herman L. Rogers ot New York, would return home for a visit. Despite rumors, Mrs. Simpson seemed settled here at least for the duration of the Christmas holidays Nevertheless a report which started at Vienna was current here today that Mrs. Simpson had been invited to spend an indefinite time as the guest of Princess Ileana of Rumania, wife of Archduke Anton of Austria Hungary, at her castle about thirty miles from Enzesfeld, Austria, where Edward is guest. The report here was that Mrs. Simpson might 90 to Austria for New Years day.
 Reporters Admitted
 4 delegation of four reporters, in- cluding a United Press correspond ent, was admitted to the grounds of the villa to cerify the fact that Mrs. Simpson was still here.
 The press demanded to see her because of reports that she had gone to Austria. Mrs. Simpson and Mrs. Rogers emerged from the house and faced the reporters at 6 distance of 50 yards. Mrs. Simpson gazed directly at the reporters.
 She was wearing a navy blue suit with 8 red and black Scottish muf- fer, light hose and black shoes. She appeared less fatigued than when last seen. She re-entered the villa without making a statement.
 The villa was somewhat upset this morning because the Rogers dog bit a postman. Municipal authorities asked to be allowed to examine the animal for rabies.
 Before he departed, Lord Brown low, who had been detailed by Prince Edward to see that Mrs. Simpson was properly guarded, of- fered a substantial gift to the French police and secret service agents who are looking after her safety. The gift was declined with thanks.
 Hollywood Offer
 Hollywood, Dec. 14.-UP)- There's haven and fortune-a man. sion and $1 ,OO0, ,000-for the Duke of Windsor and Mrs. Wally Simpson in Hollywood. Arthur Wenzel, film promoter, revealed today that he had cabled the offers to both the former King Edward VIII and Mrs. Simpson to come here and play in a film to be called "The Right to Love-" Wenzel complained that the abdicated king had not answered a previous offer but that the ante had been raised in the new offer of star dom.
 "I,m offering 8 Hollywood man. sion and $1,00O, ,000," he said. That sounds like 8 great deal, but he's worth it." His computations were made, Wenzel said, on what had been paid the Dionne quintuplets T figure he'd be at least twice as good as the Dionne quintuplets. and they got $500,000. We both could make a lot of money-and he may need it now that he has resigned, you know" He said the offer was backed by three wealthy Hollywood men" whose names he could not re- veal unless the offer is accepted.
