Peking, Oct. 14.
Notes have been exchanged between the Waichiaopu and the Soviet Embassy concerning. the detention of a party of 13 Japanese in Mongolia. The Chinese Note states that the Japanese are detained by a detachment of the Russian Red Army and demands that the Soviet Government take measures to secure the release of the Japanese. In reply the Sovi Charzé d'Affaires suggests that there has been a misunderstanding, since Soviet troops have long been withdrawn from Mongolia in accordance with the Sino-Russian Convention, and recommends the Waichiaopu to advise the interested parties to. apply directly to the Mongolian Government.—Reuter's Pacific Service.
