a | Great

Britain Will Not Recognize
China's Claim To Sovereignty--Russia
and Japan Greedy for Territory—Tri-
partite Agreement To Make Tibet
Neutral Territory Possible

Peking, Sept. 2.—Events of su-
preme international ‘importance
have taken place, seriously affect-
ing China’s future and justifying
the belief that a of partition
the country is nearer than it has
ever been before,

Recently China has been en-
deavyoring to recover Tibet,
which, when the Manchu dynasty
was overthrown, declared its in-
dependence. Even now an army
is advancing into that province
for the purpose of asserting and
establishing the authority of the
republic, but Great Britain now
formally informs China that she
will not permit any expedition to
enter Tibet from any quarter,

The British Government con-
tends that Tibet ‘should be per-
mitted to arrange its affairs with-
out Chinese interference.

Sir John N, Jordan, the British
minister, presented to the foy-
ernment a memorandum which
suggests that the Chinese gov-
ernment station a representative
at L’Hasa, who shall advise the
Tibetans on questions of foreign
policy and shall be protected by
a bodyguard of Chinese troops,

he note recommends the
drawing up of a new Angio-
Chinese apreement, which it
makes a condition to the recogni-
tion by Great Britain of the
Chinese Republic.

Russia has, almost simultane-
ously, told China she will not
permit any expedition to enter
Mongolia.” The Russian demand
that the northwestern ‘expedition
be | abandoned indicates ‘clearly
that Mongolia is absolutely gone.

The Chinese are exceedingly
agitated.. Realizing that they
are facing the actual loss of their
tremendous dependencies, they
have asked the Germans and
French their intentions. in Shan
Tung and Yun Nan respectively.

Russia and Japan. recently
reached a general agreement re-
garding China and the Chinese
feel that Japan will move for-
ward soon.

London, Aug. 30 —Great Brit-
tain’s policy in regard to Tibet is
that it recognizes China's suzer-
ainty over thecountry, but not its
sovertignty, .

China, it is pointed out, only

sovereignty over Tibet when the
Dalai Liama fled to India after
the' British expedition of 1904.
Tibet, however, which was prac-
tically independent, thereupon
drove out the Chinese army of
occupation.

~The British “Government { is of
the opinion that a fresh. Chinese

by ‘acts of great cruelty towards
the Tibetans, It also considers
that ‘British interests “warrants
the stationing of a British agent
at L'Hasa. - .

The otiteome of the present
situ: ition thay be the drawing up
of a British - Russian - Chinese
agreement for the preservation

lof the, autonomy | ‘and neutrality

of ‘Tibet, .

Gi ‘eat Britain’s policy’ is"
sev rely critized in this morning’s
Liberal newspapers. The Chroni-
cle contrasts the British solici-

‘for ‘Tibetan | ‘independence

Britain thrice previously acknow-

“Such hectoring diplomacy,’’| a
the Chroniclesays, “‘is something
new and is decidedly unpleasant.
In has the appearance of being
the result of Russian supgestion.
Hes Russia agreed to keep out of
Tibet in order to secure aecqui-
escence in her Mongolian
schemes?’’

China Stands Firm

London, Sept. 2:—The Chinege
government has handed a note
to the British legation rejecting
Great Britain’s demands that
Tibet be not incorporated into a
province of the Chinese republic,
says the Daily Telegraph's'Peking
correspondent.

The same correspondent says
that Dr. Sun Yat Sen, ex-provi-
sional president of the Chinese
republic, in an interview, denied
he was going immediately to the
United States or Europe to raise
a railway loan,

_ May Move Capital

Peking, Sept. 2:—Dr. Sun Yat
Sen, in the course of an interview |o
today, openly expressed fears

action in Manchuria, and showed
himself pessimistic concerning.
China’s ability to save the east-
erm provinces. He said it was
necessary for the government’s
safety to remove the Chinese
capital, owing to the probability
of Japan’s taking Manchuria and
thus coming within striking: dis-
tance of Peking.

Should hostilities break out, |-
Peking’s capture would be cer-
tain, he said, and such an event
would demoralize the people and
practically end the war. WNan-
king or Wuchang,. he thought,
could be more, easily defended.

The Baldheaded Future
Log Angeles, Sept. 3:—Withim
500‘years there will scarcely be a
hair.on any woman’s head, and|a
men will lose their hair 200 years!’
before that time, declared Prof,
Carlton B. Wells, an eminent
brain specialist of Paris, who is
here on his first visit to the
United States in twenty years,
"Baldness will be the fashion
for both men and women,’’ he
continued. © ‘‘The development
of brain power of the human race
will precede the loss of its hair,
and to have curly locks will be a
reflection on the intellect of the
wearer some hundred years
hence.’”

Boy's Terrible Death

Flint, Mich., Sept, 1:— In thela
the presence of hundreds of peo-
ple fourteen - year-old Chester
Betts, son of Bert N. Betts, of
Flint, was accidentally caught by
the guy rope of a balloon yester-
day ‘and carried about 2,000 feet

tangled and hurled _him to his
‘death, Hecrashed against the
roof of a barn, and was still alive
when spectators reached him; but
soon expired..

The tragedy occured at a
county fair, and when the balloon’
and aeronaut shot upward, many
people thought the youth danyl-
ing at the end of a rope was a
dummy. The heroic efforts of
the balloonist to reseue the boy|
disclosed the truth to the crowd
below.

Agthe hig gas bag crept higher
and higher, the aeronaut, in peril

working desperately to pull the
dangling form. to the trapeze.
Finally «the rope switled away
from the lad and. the tiny form
dropped. .

It. is believed: the ‘order will be
