Being Doubted in City

MORE CHINESE BULLION ARRIVES AT PLYMOUTH

London, Jan. 29.

A long authenticated report of Japanese excesses in Nanking and the failure of the Japanese authorit to repress such excesses is featured in the "Daily Telegraph" to-day.

The increasing attention given by all newspapers to this subject, it is stated, "confirms the belief that there is a lack of discipline among Japanese troops."

It is generally believed that the Chinese "comeback" is embarrassing the Japanese more than they will admit.

Evidences of increasing intimacy between Russia and China are also exciting wide interest, Business circles in London point out that the legality of the Japanese claim to censor foreign cables is more than doubtful, and it is expected that when Parliament reassembles early next month pressure will be applied on the Government to take a much firmer attitude on the subject.
