THE CHINESE REVOLUTION
YUAN'S CONCESSIONS NOT SUFFICIENT. HIS CAUSE REGARDED AS HOPELESS. Press , Association—By Telegraphs—Copyright. PEKING, April 9. The tendency in the whole of Southern China is to join the movement against Yuan Shih Kai. The President has not made the concessions necessary to save the situation, and has lost the sympathy of practically all prominent public men. A large part of the northern army is locked up in Szechaan, and is dispirited owing to Yuan's renunciation of the monarchy. Many people fear the collapse of both President and Government, following the division of the country into different military commands; but this will be avoidable provided the monarchists take no desperate steps to endeavour to keep Yuan in power.
