ARMED CLASH FEARED.
IN FAR EAST. CONCENTRATIONS ON RUSSLANMANCHURIAN FRONTIER. (BT LJILI— PRESS ASSOCIATION—COprEIOHT.) ("TKE (Received Juno 3rd. C'.2t) p.m.) LONDON, June 2. The Riga correspondent of "Tho Times" aays reports received from Moscow, purporting to be based on messages from Harbin, Peking and Tokyo, state that Far Eastern relations nro so strained that an armed clash is feared. The origin of the trouble is ascribed to Japanese alleged infringement of the recent Soviet-Japanese Treaty, and Marshal Chang-Tso-Lin's determined support of Chinese officials who refuso to carry out a Bolshevik decree dismissing non-Soviet, non-Cbineso employees of the Chinese Eastern Railway. It is impossible to discover how much of this 13 true, hut the Moscow official Press, without denying them, reprints Chinese reports that tho Soviet forces ore concentrating on the frontiers, and that Marshal Chang-Tso-Lin's Army Staff has requisitioned 400 railway carriages to convey troops to the Soviet frontier.
