News that the Manchurian genegal has made a deal with the Japan- owned South Manchuria railway for transport of his army 2ekingward attracts lively attention in American, Japanese and Chinese official quar- ters in Washington. The South Man- churia road runs, in the direction of Peking, only =o far as Mukden. From that point, if Chang continues his advance by rail, he would need to use the Mukden-Peking railwa which is largely under British con- trol.

CANTON, September 16.—The de- parture yesterday of Sun Yat Sen, {head of the south China government, | for Shiuchow, in the northern part of Kwangtung Province, where he will concentrate his armies to go to the aid of Lu Yung Hsiang, defender of Shanghai, was attended by great pomp. A number of Dr., Sun’s generals ac- companied him and the time of his departure had been well advertised. Before leaving, Dr. Sun told inter- viewers that it was his plan to travel frequently between Shiuchow and Canton, to supervise personally the assembling of his armies. He claimed he would be able to gather 30,000 men at Shiuchow, besides leaving 10,000 more to guard Canton from powers opposing him politically. The troops would be sent northward gradually, he added.

C., TUESDAY, SE EXILE OF PROFITEERS CUTS CABARET PROFITS Moscow Resorts Find Business Dull After Exodus of Moneyed Patrons. Dy the Assaciated Press. MOSCOW, September 16. — The wholesale deportation to Siberia and the north of profiteers and others has had a bad effect on tho Russian restaurants and night-life resorts. Whereas a year ago Moscow Was as gay with smart restavrants, cabrrets and cafes as the liveliest American city, it is today as dull and depressing as a New England village on a blue Sunday. It is not an uncommon sight now- adays to find more walters in a Moscow restaurant than actual patrons. This is due partly to the disappearance of the profiteers, who were the most regular and liberal frequenters of the restaurants, and partly to a fear on the part of those left behind that they may share a like fate if they give evidence of having ‘sufficient money to patronize the more expensive eating places. After partaking of expensive re- pasts at Moscow’'s best restaurants, Russlan business and professional MBER 16, 1924, - men have undergone the experience of being croes-examimed by police officers as to how they came into possession of sufficient money to patronize such extravagant caravan- series.
