Insufferable Usage by Chinese Soldiers A letter from a trustworthy correspondent in Peking gives a moving account of some of the results already visible of China's breaking off relations with Prince Koudacheff and taking Russians under her "protection." It say:
"Reports indicate that conditions in Urga are in a terrible state of disorder. Chinese troops are absolutely out of control and insult everyone in sight. Russians are being led around with chains round their necks. The rights of all foreigners including Americans are disregarded. No Chinese officers are in evidence and from all appearances no effort whatever is made to restrain the soldiers, who have arrested quite a few of the Mongols and are keeping them in gaol without any apparent reason whatever. The Northern milit ists seem disinclined to make any effort to remedy these conditions and have refused to send troops to Mongolia, on the grounds that none are available for this purpose,"
