No Tickets Now to Shanhaikuan

Shadow of the Mukden Warlord Peking, Sept. 12.

The tourist agencies in Peking were instructed to-day not to sell tickets beyond Shanhaikuan, which is the centre of neutral territory in which no troops are stationed except foreign railway guards.

Up to the present tickets have been: available, and ordinary traffic resulted in an exact exchange of rolling stock.

The present restriction is due to the fear that Chang Teo-lin may seize Chihli trains.—Reuter's Pacific Service.
