See Connection Between Pa
cific Fleet and Shantung
Discussion People Confi
dent of Future Greatness.
By the Associated Press.
" Tokio, Sept. 11. Developments
In relation to the Shantung ques
tion form the supreme subject , of
discussion here. The general atti
tude of the Japanese is to calmly
await the final action by, the United
States senate.
Some of the members of the Diet
are reported to be addressing anx
ious inquiries to the government
regarding the situation. They ask
l . i .1 f t:. j c . t - i:t 1
to enforce By arms a possible new
treaty, with Germany returning
Shantung directly to China.
Those who have addressed the
inquiries to the government are said
to be profoundly impressed by the
assignment of half the United States
navy to the racihc and to be in
clined to establish a connection be
tween the coming of the fleet and
the Shantung decision.
Interests Expand in Asia.
The end ol the war finds the
Japanese striving with traditional
unity to expand the nation's inter
ests in Asia. Premier Hara, speak
ing yesterday at a luncheon in
honor of former Premier Saionji,
head of the Japanese peace delega
tion at Paris, said:
"JaPan' prestige has been greatly
enhanced by the peace conference.
' The nation should realize and be
inanKiui tor me uci inai an japan s
proposes were favorably received
with the exception of the one re
lating to racial equality."
A wave of elation and confidence
In Japan's future greatness seems
to be sweeping the empire. In a re
cent address Ikuso Ooka, president
of the house of representatives,
aid :
"World leadership, is now in
America, but it is hound later to
ha transferred to Tanan."
t
urges country to blow up.
v 4 a r "v i t
Kepiying io .m. uoKa s speecn,
Takeshi Inukai, leader of the Koku
minto party, addressing his follow
ers, demanded a slowing tip of Ja
pan's advance on the ground that it
is not strong enough at present to
successfully combat western powers
in any sense."
As far as Shantung is concerned
officials take the view that they
have "gone the limit in magnanim
ity" and whatever happens will
"steadfastly adhere to the program
of restoration of the province to
China." Pressed for an estimate as
to the time that wilTbe required for
this restoration, officials have said
to the correspondent:
May Return Shantung.
"If China will take the discussion
in a fair spirit restoration can prob
ably be accomplished in a few
months. Japan would want arrange
ments for an international settle
ment providing for joint operation
of the Shantung railway with Jap
anese instructors for the Chinese
railroad and agreement concerning
Shantung enterprises in which the
Japanese have already-invested capi
tal." They have added that no demands
wifT be submitted to China as a
condition to restoration.
"How can we fix the exact date
for restoration?" said one official,
"when we do not know whether
China will talk with us nor how long
they will require to reach an accord
on matters relative to which we
have made so many concessions?"

SPLIT IN RANKS
OF BOLSHEVIKI,
BRITISH LEARN
Downing Street's Agents Re
port Move That Threatens
to Overthrow Trotzky
Lenine Combine.
By FORBES FAIRBAIRN.
Cnlrersal Bcrvim Staff Correspondent.
Special Cable DUpmleh,
London, Sept. 11. Through con
fidential and official sources the
British foreign office has learned
the first news of a definite rupture
among the Russian bolsheviki.
Advices received from British
agents reveal in detail an open re
bellion against the central soviet
government which threatens to over
throw the Lenine-Trotsky combine.
Threaten to Overthrow Rule.
Certain members of the Russian
soviet who have no sympathy with
the extreme radical views of the
present leaders of the Moscow gov
ernment, have declared themselves
against Lenine and threaten to set
up a new form of communist power.
According to the British foreign
office, this is the most important
announcement from Russia in
months and may have the greatest
influence on the future course of
events there.
"We have reason to believe in the
absolute veracity of this report,"
said an official' at Downing street.
"The information comes from a re
liable man who was able to obtain
in the past the truth of the Russian
situation.
"If it is true, it will have a most
important bearing on the turn of
events in Russia."
May Influence British Plan.
Asked whether it would influence
the British withdrawal from Rus
sia, the official said the matter has
not been discussed, but that it
might influence British plans.
"Russia is the biggest matter now
demanding the attention of the Brit
ish foreign office," he said. "We are
devoting practically all our time to
it. There is no question that it is
most serious, and I cannot empha
size too much the importance of the
rupture within the bolshevik ranks."
Confirmatory to some extent of
this information is what the Russian
correspondent of The Nieuew Rot
terdamsche Courant has to say. He
has just arrived at Berlin after two
months in Russia. He declares the
Lenine-Trotzky-Tchitcherin trium
virate is no longer all-powerful,
Tchitcherin being too friendly to the
entente to please his colleagues.
The correspondent asserts Dser
sinski, head of the 'Russian secret
police, which has spies -and agents
everywhere, is now the most pow
erful man in the country, overshad
owing Trotzky who controls the
army. "Neither Lenine nor Tch
itcherin holds any power," he said.
"Lenine is closely guarded in the
Kremlin and Trotzky hasn't been in
Moscow for many months."
Masked Bandits Kill Four
Miners in Colorado Mine
Telluride, Colo., Sept. 11. Four

woman, whose names had not been
ascertained at an early hour this aft
ernoon, are under arrest.

, Employes From Striking
New York, Sept. 11. Government
employes national, state and mu
nicipal are discouraged by the
American Federation of Labor from
striking to obtain their demands,
Matthew Woll of Chicago, repre
senting the federation in the ab
sence of its t president, Samuel
Gompers, said in an address at the
industrial conference of the National
Civic federation here Thursday.
