MOVEMENTS OF FENG
NEW YORK, Sth February. The Washington correspondent of the •^New York Times" says that Chang-Tso-lin's statement pledging protection for all foreigners under the jurisdiction of the Pekin Government in return for an acknowledgment by the Powers of China's sovereign rights is considered here to be in lino with Mr. Kellogg's offer to negotiate for a revision o± the Customs and extra-territorial treaties. Officials, Kowever, decline to discuss the matter, since they aro not yet convinced that one pide or the other is assured of the control of China as a whole. Confidential reports indicate that ieng Yu-hsiang's offensive against the forces on the boundary of the Honan and Shansi Provinces,' northwest of Hankow, if successful, might force the fall of Shanghai and Nanking, radically changing the situation, as it concerns tho military control of the whole of China.
