SPREE CARERS oRem EE eo 2 if NATIONALIST FORGES ON OFFENSIVE AFTER RETREATING aS Triple Victory Over Three Re- volting Factions Followed Up by Nanking LAWLESSNESS IS RAMPANT Chang, ‘Ironsides’ Commande Reported Suicide After De- feat in Gory Battle Shanghai, Dec. 17.—(#)—The bat- tle-worn nationalist government ap- peared to be on the offensive in China today after following up its triple victory over three rebellious factions which almost caused its downfall. Instead of being in the precarious defensive position disclosed by reports a few days ago, advices indicated that the tide had turned once more in favor of Nanking and that. nation- alist soldiers were entering rebellious territory with hogtile forces appar- ently crumbling in the face of the advance. At Canton, where the nationalists won @ battle December 9, the rebellious “Ironsides” division of Gen- eral Chang no comperined bee si rebels, who in an ad- vance upon the southern Metropolis, were reported crushed. General Chang, who with his division with- drew from the nationalist army some time ago and turned against the na- tionalist government, was reported to have committed suicide as the result of his defeat, but the report remained unverified and uncredited. ” Predict Tang's Collapse Coliapse of the insurgents north of Hankow under command of General Tang Yun-Sheng was expected in na- tionalist quarters as the reeult of government victories in that area. Tang's recent advance caused the evacuation of many foreigners from Hankow, important central China City. Nationalist forces also claimed to have the rebels in a precarious con- dition north of Pukow. These successes seemingly gave Nanking the advantage but condi- tions remained otherwise unsettled in many places. Most of the foreigners who make their homes in Nanking, the nationalist capital, remained here. ‘They came to Shanghai recently when the threat of the rebels menaced the capital. The American missionaries started for Nanking last night to de- termine whether it was safe for other foreigners to return. To Defend Consulates American authorities said they did not contemplate defense of the Unit- ed States consulate there in case of disorder but would evacuate Ameri- cans to ships in the Yangtse river. British and Japanese authorities have made plans to defend their consulates if necessary.
