The Mongolian Question, Alarmist telegrams have recent- emanated from Peking regard- ing China's attitude towards the Russo-Mongolian Covention, One says China has decided to declare war against Russia and that "a formal declaration will be made immediately." This action, it le added, has been taken by the.. Board of Military Affairs and the General Staff with the full approval of President Yuan Shili-koi, after a conference lasting a whole day." Russia's notion in formally re- cognising the autonomy of North- orn Mongolia and entering with the into a Convention Hatakhtu (the independent Gov- ernment of North Mongolia) has naturally excited a very hostile feeling in China towards Russia, und there has been some amount of bellicose talk even in the National Council chamber; bat no responsible statesman in China, we imagine, dreams of fighting Russia. The situation, however, is not without elements of extreme danger, for, as we have stated before, a considerable Chinese force was mobilised for dispatch to Mongolia, when the first news was received of the intention to separate from the Repúblic, and that force musk at the present time bo somewhere near the. Mongolian frontier...... As the Chinese semi-official Press points out, the Convention is in flagrant violation of the guarantee of the territorial integrity of China and the principle of the "open-door and equal opportunity" Mongolia.
