By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright, (Received February 3, 0.15 p.m.) Times Cable. LONDON, Feb. 3.

The Riga correspondent of the Times says Soviet organisations at Moscow and Leningrad at the week-end arranged extensive new anti-Chinese demonstrations.

China was threatened with a resumption of hostilities in Manchuria unless she carries out immediately the recent agreement which she is alleged to be sabotaging.

At Leningrad the demonstrators passed a resolution reminding China that the numerous Red regiments still on the Manchurian frontier are as ready to show the quality of their bayonets as they were a few weeks ago.

•The Izvestia declares that the Soviet will regard as an unfriendly act any further delay in disarming and expelling the White Guards.

RAILWAY DISPUTE.

HITCH AT CONFERENCE.

NANKING RECALLS DELEGATE.

SHANGHAI, Jan. 25,

Following on the action of the Nanking Government in recalling to the capital the Chinese delegate to the Moscow Conference on the disputed issues relating to the Chinese Eastern Railway, for the alleged purpose of discussing instructions, Japanese reports indicate that the Government is endeavouring "to throw a monkey wrench into the negotiation machinery." " ' Nanking is stated to have notified the Mukden Government of its repudiation of the Habarovsk protocol for a settlement of the dispute, on the ground that the Chinese delegates then acted ultra vires. Should Nanking persist in its present attitude, which cannot be confirmed here at present, Mukden will be placed in an awkward predicament. It may. nevertheless, proceed to discuss a separate peace, which, in any case, it has been doing all along, in spite of Nanking's claim to control the proceedings.
