DIPLOMATS PLAN ANOTHER PROTEST By ERIC VON SALZMANN (L. N. S. Staff Correspondent) PEKING, May 21.—Alarmed at the utter failure of negotiations for these release of foreigners held by the Suchow train bandits, the diplomatic body decided today to hand another strong note to the foreign office. This note, it was learned, will demand the release of the prisoners in most urgent terms and threaten strong measures by the foreign powers in the event of the failure of the Chinese government to effect the immediate release of the captives. Treachery on the part of both the bandits and the government negotiators has absolutely offset all efforts toward the release of the prisoners. Fighting between the Chinese soldiers and the bandits has inflamed both sides and made difficult an understanding. There were numerous casualties on both sides as a result of the fighting, reports received here stated. Marcel Berube, Frenchman released by the bandits as an emissary carried an urgent appeal direct to President Lie Yuan Hung. He told the president that the bandits insisted upon dealing directly with him. The belief here, however is that Lie is helpless. Excitement is growing in Chinese circles. There is a deep undercurrent of feeling growing out of the situation. Unity of foreign diplomatic action is deemed more necessary than ever before. WASHINGTON, May 21.—Direct negotiations between the leaders of the Suchow bandits and the consular representatives of the U.S. and other powers apparently offers the only hope for the immediate release of state department today from Jacob Gould Schurman, the American minister at Pekling. TROOPS TO CHINA FROM PHILIPPINES MANILA, May 21.—It was unofficially reported here today that troops will be sent to China from here in the event decision is reached to employ intervention in the Chinese TORY GOVERNMENT FACED BY CRISIS LONDON, May 21.—Former Premier Andrew Bonar Law who resigned because of ill health, underwent a slight operation of the throat this afternoon. His condition was said to be unchanged. By DAVID M. CHURCH I. N. S. Staff Correspondent LONDON, May 21.—England's tory government today faced a most serious crisis as a result of the resignation of Premier Andrew Bonar Law who had been in office just seven months. Further gravity is added to the situation by the fact the Tory party is split and that violent dissensions are threatened in Parliament over the Russian policy. As Bonar Law did not name his choice for successor it is up to King George to attempt to select a new premier who will be satisfactory to both sides. Many political observers believed that either foreign secretary Lord Curron or Chancellor of the exchequer Stanley Baldwin would get the post, the odds favoring Curron. Should Curron be named it is likely that he would reform the government, calling in Sir Robert Horne, Australian Chamberlain and possibly Lord Birkenhead, who were members of the old coalition ministry of David Lloyd George. Unless the newly organized cabinet satisfies both factions of the conservative party there is every likelihood that a general election will follow. If Curron is selected to head the cabinet Baldwin will then be slated for leadership in the House of Commons. Still another possibility is the nomination of a compromise premier such as Lord Derby, former secretary of war for Earl Balfour who has served in nearly every high post in the government.
