Alarm at Chinwangtao Subsides Peking, May 26.
The alarm in the region of Chinwangtao and Peitaiho has subsided. The Kailan mines have resumed the transport of coal by rail. The Curlew has arrived at Chinwangtao.
The railway from Tientsin to Mukden is clear as far as Liuchow-ying, where 500 Fengtien cavalry aye stationed by General Chang Tso-lin with the object of interrupting traffic.
Meanwhile, General Chang is endeavouring to secure the approval of the Central Government to his taking over of the railway beyond Shanhaikuan. The Fengtien troops believe that this has been partly amtanged, but Government circles ridicule such optimism.—Reuter.
