JAPANESE PROGRESS.
ACTUATION SURVEYED. (Times Cables.) - Received December 22, 11.5 a.m. LONDON, Dec. 21. The Peking correspondent of the Times says that from a military viewpoint the Japanese accomplishments are less conclusive in. Nortli China than in the Shanghai .and Nanking areas. The Japanese are definitely on the defensive in West Hopei and Shansi, where they have lost territory owing to guerrila warfare, against which it is difficult to protect the long Japanese communications. The Japanese hold the TientsinPukow railway to the Yellow River comfortably, hut the control of the Peking-Tankow railway is precarious.
