PEKING, June 1.—China's “itiner- ant parliament,” elected in 1913, whose last consplcuous act was to elect Tsao Kun President in 1923, has announced the intention to resume the, session interrupted in 1924 by the coup of Ferg Yuhsiang. That is to say, a goodly number of the members have so announced, and June 20 is the date fixed by natlon-wide telegraphic notification for reconvening. On the other hand, the minority group of the Parliament, or the so- called anti-bribery members of Tien- tsin, who refrained from voting for Tsao Kun, have issued a protest against the proposed allegedly fl- legal session, calling upon the nation to rise and start punitive action against their Peking colleagues. The Tientsin members are out for restoration of the original Nanking constitution, drafted by the first Na- tional Council, and will have none other. They are particualrly opposed to the constitution promulgated by President Tsao immediately following his _election. The Parliament’s future, therefore, promises to be as stormy and as fu- tile as its past. Tsao Kun 'became President of China on October 10, 1923. Tt was ireely charged that bribery influenced many members of the Parilament that elected him. He was deposed by Feng Yuhslang in 1924. Feng then took charge of the government and Parliament scatered. SR R SEARCHERS EXAMINE DILWORTH’S EFFECTS Inquiry Into Rich Banker's Death Reveals No Suspicious Evi- dence to Date.
