The Cabinet Under Fire

Peking, Apr. 2.

The Senate this afternoon discussed a resolution of lack of confidence in the Government, because of its alleged failure to secure the abrogation of the Twenty-One De. mands, proposed by Mr. Chang Wo-hua. The opposition favoured the resolution and called on the President to dismiss the Cabinet. Finally it was agreed that the matter should be referred to a special committee of 27.

The House of Representatives to-day unanimously passed a resolution calling on the Government to submit a list of all loans contracted before the restoration of the present Parliament.—Reuter.
