FAVOURABLY RECEIVED
FOREIGN MINISTER’S SPEECH.
NO NEWS OF AGREEMENT. REPORT FROM PEKIN. BY CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION- -COPYRIGHT Received 12.5 p.m. to-day. LONDON, Feb. 11. The Daily Telegraph's Pekin correspondent states that Sir Austen Chamberlain’s speech was favourably received, ‘but- the British legation has no news ofi' any agreement 'between Mr O’Malley and Eugene Chen. The opinion here is that if Mr Chen signs, it will be, because Russian influence is unable, to control the military and civil parties, represented respectively by the Southern commander and -Mr Chen. Rather than lose control of either party the Russians may ■ desist from any attempt to influence the Cantonese against any agreement, which may be reached. MORE REFUGEES REACH SHANGHAI.
