S
Czar's Government Requires
Peking to Withdraw All
Chinese from the Lately
Seceded Province.
GARRISONS OBJECTED TO
St, Petersburg's Demands Ac?
companied by Expression of
Desire to "Assist" the In?
ternal Administration
of China.
(By Cable to The Tribune 1
Peking. Jan. 8.?Russia has demanded
the withdrawal of all Chinese from Outer
Mongolia, the abandonment by th-- im?
perial government of all garrisons then?
and the discontinuant" of the Chine-??*
colonization of the province.
Russia has also reqiu-atcl that China
re? .?grilse the Kutuktu ;f r??,t as the
monarch of U.o independent state of
Outer Mongolia. The Kutuktu i.?? the ec?
clesiastic chief recently installed In
Ursa, tlio capital of the province.
The desire is also expressed by Russia
to "assist" the internal administration
ot China, the Peking government retain?
ing control of external affairs.
Thus Is realized the long felt apprehen?
sion that Russia's ent roachments would
sooner or later take the form of definite
??unands. China is unwilling to enter
- tain the proposals and has left St. Pe?
tersburg's representations unanswered.
The independence ot Mongolia as a state
was declared at Crga on December 29 last,
simultaneously with that of the vast de?
pendency of Turkestan. It was expected
that both of these would speedily pass for?
mally under Russian influence
The population of Mongolia Is about five
millions, consisting of Mongols, Kalmucka.
various Turcoman tribes, Chinese and Tun?
fuses.
fBy The Apiwlated Press, j
Peking. Jan. 8.?Two important develop?
ments to-day intensified the interest In the
Situation In China These were a renewal
of hostilities and the demand of the Rus
aian government that china re<~ogni*'<a the
independence of Outer Mongolia.
Revolutionaries from Shan-sl and flhon
ai. havim?, recaptured the town of ghen
Chow. are advancing on Ho-Nan. while
reinforcements have heen dispatched to the
Imperialists. Th'- armistice has not heen
renewed, and there Is a deadlock In the
peace negotiations; so that early fighting
may bu expected between the opposing
forces
In addition to requesting China to reeoR
niae the* Kutuktu of T'rga as the monarch
of Outer Mongolia, the Russian government
baa notified China that the Independence
of Outer Mongolia must be recognised as
concerns Internal affairs. The note adds
that Russia will assist the Mongolians In
maintaining order, and that she Intends to
build a railway from K la Hit a, Siberia, to
T'rga To this note China has as yet made
no replv.
To the oth?r ?powers, however, the Chl
i-overnment to-day communicated the
puhetanc? of the Russian demands. 1'n
douhtedly a strong protest will be made
by the ?'hi?ese government against the ac?
tion of Russia, but China Is unable to de?
fend herself now or in the future wltli
reference to Mongolia. Hereafter the

The statement that Russia will assist in
maintaining order In Outer Mongolia prob?
ably mean? that she will lafTMlll the num?

Washington. Jan. 9.-?With Senator

hurling dellance at those who have ac?
cused the ?>hio camlldate of connection
with high interests"; with Senator
?Hot?" Taylor singing a asma son?, and
with a dozen orators pleading for har?
mony and concerted action, more than
eight ?hundred Democrats held a Jackson
Dnv dinner here.
The Bpeech of .SenaUir Pomerene came
near the end of the long programme
and was the first dis? ordant note ?>f the
dinner His referen.'.?' were construed as
directed toward William Jennings Bry?
an, the central figure of the dinner, who
did not arise to make "'the last speech"
until after 'J o'clock this morning. Mr.
Bryan. In his opening remarks, declared
that h<- was "the happiest man at the
banquet."
With eyes Hasblue? Bk-At?_ Pomerene
Stopped In the midst of a harmony
?peach and began to plead the cause of
th.- absent Ohio Governor.
There arara tkoaa who had charged,
the Senator said, that Governor Har?
mon was allied with certain high int?r?
?tt'a, These charg<*8, he added with
?lram.it I?* emphasis, ha?l been hurl*?i
back In the teeth of those who ma le
them in "?'lio. Pausing again, as the
Harmon adherents cheered, the Senator
let his, eyea sweep the crowded hull,
and shouted
"Let him who is without sin cast the
lirst stone."
Aware of Bryan's antipathy for Har?
mon, numerous Democrats tldgeted in
th.lr seats, but the Ohio Senator left this
particular phase of his remarks and pro
ceedofl tot a general laudatory review of
the career of the Ohio Governor.
The mention of Harmon's name pr >
voked some cheers, but the Harmon ad?
herents were not so vociferous as hid
been those of Governor Wilson, Speaker
Clark and Colonel Bryan.
Typical Democratic Gathering.
It waa a typi?>al pre-election Demo?
cratic gathering. The slightest Jab at
the opposition party turned loose volleys
of cheers. Demo'.ats. large und small,
were applauded. Governor Wilson moved
through the hall, and the diners ?iroso
en masse. Champ,Clark, glancing fur?
tively toward the Princotonlan, merely
smiled. A few moments before Speaker
?'lark had left the table and had re?
ceived an ovation of his own, not so
fervent, perhaps, as that accorded to Mr.
Wilson, but a good send-off, neverthe?
less.
William Jennings Bryan, feared by
every Presidential ?andldate present, re?
mained in his seat ?luring the prelimi?
naries, contenting hlmeelf with the ac?
claim with which he waa greeted when
he first entered the hall.
one of thi most significant incidente
of the evening was the friendly chat be?
tween Mr. Bryan and Governor Wilson.
Whate.er may have been in their hearts,
the two political rivals exhibited a bold
front of good fellowship The Joline let?
ter seemed temporarily sidetracked, and
the three-times candidate and the would

?and threatening to appeal to the 6,5001?
?xx? people who voted for hl:n for ?Fieal
dcnt If Jumes M. Gufey obtained mem?
bershlp In the Democratic National ?""^m
mittee, William Jennings Bryan was
overruled to-day by a vote of 30 to 1<8.
Before the question was put to a vo?te
the lie direct was exchanged in the com?
mittee, and only the strenuous efforts of
tlie husky member from Oklahoma. Mr.
Brady, nnd the valiant member from Il?
linois, Roger Sullivan, prevented the
Irate contestant from Pennsylvania, A.
Mitchell Palmer, from springing at the
throat of the seventy-year-old Guffey.
Angered by the reiterated charges of
the Peerless Leader, who Insisted that
Guffey had never failed to play the part
of traitor to his party and that he had
sought to play that role to Mr Bryan
.nly four years ago, during the utter?
ance of which Mr. Bryan continually
pointed an accusing finger at Guffey, and
finally stung beyond endurante l?y the
deliberate charge of Palmer that Guffey
had sold out the Democratic party to
?Senator Penrose at the Allentown con?
vention o? 1010, Guffey, white and
trembling with rage, shouted at Palmer:
'?you're a liar!"
Then it was that Palmer strove to get
at the white-haired Guffey and was re?
strained by the combined force of the
Illinois and Oklahoma members.
"How much la there in Bryan's threat
to appeal to his followers against the
regular Democratic organization?'" lathe
question which the perturbed Democrats
are asking each other this evening. Will
he actually have the nerve to do it, ar.?i
if he does, what does It portend for tha
Democratic party?
Bryan's Threat Worries Wilson Men.
Nor are the advocates of Woodrow
Wilson's nomination at all comfortable
over the events of to-day'a session of the
committee. Although refusing to say
publicly which candidate he favored for
the nomination. Mr. Bryan has not hesi?
tated to fa*- privately that he prefers
Governor Wilson to all others whose
names have been suggested. In vlep ??f
the attion of the committee in turning
(town Mr. Bryan to-day at every point.
Is his friendship an asset or a liability,
the Wilson men are anxiously Inquiring
Ithls evening. They would also like to
know how great is the danger that M..
Bryan nlll carry his resentment to a
point which will make Impossible the
nomination of their favorite.
A carttfully devised plan for avoiding
a conflict in the committee and referring
the question of seating new members
to a sub-committee had been prepared,
but Mr. Bryan set the plans of the lead?
ers all awry when the first name on the
roll was called.
It was responded to by the presenta?
tion of the credentials of James A.
Weatherly, of Alabama, who had been*
appointed by the state committee In ac?
cordance with the rule adopted by the
last national convention. Mr. Bryan
promptly moved that the appointment
of Mr. Weatherly be approved, and the
conflict was on. Norman E. Mack, In
the chair, ruled that, Inasmuch aa th?
state committee had full power to ap?
point Mr. Weatherly, It was not within
the province of the national committed
to approve or disapprove its action.
After a spirited debate, the ruling of
the chair was sustained by a vote of ?3J
to VA, which showed the strength of the
Bryan following in the national commit?
tee at that time.
Bitter Conteet 0 er Guffey.
A few momenta Inter the ?ase of James
M. Guffey, appointed by th?? Pennayl
vania atate committee to aucceed a dead
member, was reached. Mr. Bryan im?
mediately took the floor to oppose the
recognition of Mr. Ouflfey's appointment
As has be?*n said, his arraignment of Mr.
Guffey whs severe In the extreme, Mr.
Palmer made specific charges against
Mr. Guffey and G H. Williams, member
from Mississippi and a brother of ths
Senator, supported Mr. Rryan. Those
who spoke for Mr. Guffey were A. G.
Dewalt and Messrs. Brown, of Vermont;
Cummins, of Connecticut; McOraw, of
West Virginia; Kremir, of Montana,
and Senator Stone, of Missouri. Ths
ruling of the chair was sustained In this
Instance by a v?ite of 30 to 18, Mr. Bryan
losing three votes as compared with ths
first ballot.
The case of John J. Vertrees, of Ten?
nessee, who was contesting the appoint?
ment of R. K. L. Motintcastle. was not
1 reused, and in that instance the chair
was unanimously sustained, it was ob?
vious that nothing could be acorn
pli.-.h.-d against the "old guard," which
controlled practically a two-thirds vota.
The committeemen who wotsd with Mr.
Bryan and against Guffey represented
Alabama, Colorado, Delaware, 1 tWA,
Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina.
New Jersey, Ohio, ?Oregon, South Caro?
lina, South Dakota, Utah, Washington
Wisconsin. Wyoming and the District of
Columbia, making, with the vote of Ne?
braska, cast by Mr, Bryan. elght??en la
all.
With the completion of the rollcall,
the passage of a motion to refer to ths
committee on resolutions all resolutions
ottered without reading and ths ap?
pointment of that committee a recess
of an hour was taken, and It was 'at?
tended to hear the reporta of the vsrl ?us
cities aeeklng the convention at 5 p. nv,
but at that time a quorum could no. be
found, so adjournment w*a taken mtll
