Manchurian War Lord Wu Tso-Lin Puts Forces in Jehol
Reports from Mukden Manchuria describe General Wu Tso Lin leading Manchurian troops to a broad victory near Jehol. An entire mixed brigade of Chihli forces fled, with Chang Tso Lin’s army advancing from Chinehow to Chao Yang as Wu commits to expelling Peking influence. Foreign life and property amid the campaign are to be safeguarded while the government assumes responsibility for any acts against foreign interests. The plan anticipates Mukden’s fall within ten months despite cold weather. In Canton, Dr Sun Yat Sen’s supporters are quieted as Pekin seeks renewed authority.
