KWANGTUNG'S WARS.
LATEST FROM THE FRONT.
No news has come in from the! Fakien front for some time. The general impression is that a condition. of stalemate prevails, both sides boing content to mark time providing the other makes no attempt to encroach. Apparently. both the Kwongtung troops and the pro-Sun army are bid. ing their time, hoping for some favour" able development in the political
situation.
Wan Key: General ... Chen's | Director of operations, reports that, be ban cstablished per manert headquarters at Ding chow. In addition to the usual fight- ing units, he has drafted one company |
battalion of of bodyguards, one medical corps and one company of machine-gunners, all to be at head- quirters. A temporary hospital and clearing station for casualties is also to be erected at Ding Chow. Alto- gether he has seven battalions of in- fantry and two companies of artillery in the neighbourhood.
Cantonese troops at Wuchow are ill being moved into Kwangsi but no fighting on Boy pro Dounced scalo has yet broken out. Until the diapositions of rome of the leading rival factions ATB secertained, it is difficult to predict which side will ultimately gain the upper hand. The Kwangtang com- mander, Hung Leuk, is reported to be ' recruiting machine gun platoons to. be attached to his brigades al infanty as this class of weapon is essential for a campaign in Kwongei.
Troops are still being moved from one part of the province to another. On Tuesday, the Transport Bureau requisitioned two more junk ferries with their faunches, bitherto playing between Centon and Luog Tam-Hung Tam. Some
of the transports previously com- mandeered have not yet been released end, at present, there is an acute rbortage.
For publishing inaccurate âgures regarding the number of Kwangtang soldiere at Wuchow and contravening the censor's orders, the Commander- in-Chief he ordered the Sun Chung Po, at Canton, to euspend publica- tion for three days.
