Canton, Sept. 30.
The polities! and military situation is unchanged.
Mu Yung-hsien is calling in forees from different districts, as he is able to do through the terms of the armistice having been imperfectly drawn up, and he is taking advantage of the lack of able leaders the Cantonese movement.
Lu Yung-ting favours the retirement of Mu Yung-hsien, but Chen Chiung-ming is persona xon grata. Lu states that he would employ the Kuangsi_ army to crush Chen Chiung-ming. Ngai Bong-ping commands Macao and the top forts, as well as most of the gunboats and police.
Tsen Chun-hsuan and Yang Wing-tai are residing with Mu Yung-hsien at the latter's headquarters, whilst Wen Tsung-hsien and Chen Chin-to are living at Shameen.—Reuter.
