IS REPORTJ Rest of Family Doomed to Like Fate- American Marines Dispatched to War Region. TOYKO. Japan. The foreign office baa received advices from the Japan counsel at Mukden, that the Chinese general, Chang Tso-LIn has refused to nromlse mercy for the preservation of the ! Uvea of the defeated Marshal Kuo Sung-ung a family and also for the lives of Kuo's principal officers. Consequently It la feared that a general execution of Chang's en emies Is Imminent The Japanese government Is do ing Its utmost to prevent Chang from wreaking vengeance, the for eign office stated, but It Is feared the efforts will prove useless. Word was received from Shang hai by the foreign office that all of Kuo's troops surrendered and have joined General Chang a forces. In consequence the warring between the two factions, whose recent hos tilities have centered around Muk den, the Manchnrlna capital Is be lieved to be finished. The cruiser Hirato. which previously had been sent to Cblngwangtao for the pro tection of nationals, was ordered to return to port at Port Arthur. Minister of Foreign Affairs Shl- deeara conferred with Lieutenant General Iaset Ugakl, minister of war, urging the Immediate recall of all Japanese troops stationed at Mukden. All Korean troops were ordered to return to Seoul Immedi ately and the Kyushu troops early Id January will return to Japan, their places being taken In leased territory there by replacement troops. The Spokesman for the for eign office stated that thus far no confirmation had been received of the reported execution of Marshal Kuo and his wife by Chang, but be lieved that the report was authen tic. Chang Tso-LIn Is reported to be In Mukden, jubilant and happy, and besides celebrating his victory over Kuo Is also celebrating the birth of a child bv his fifth wife. Marine Off For Peking. WASHINGTON, Dec. 86. A company of American marines Is en route from Manila to China, but where the movement haa any specific significance to the Chi nese clvio war fare has not been learned. Lacking official explanatory ad vices, It was believed the sailing of several destroyers with the marine was of routtno nature, although developmenta In China during the last two days have been, closely watched ly Washing, ton authorities. These Included ' the reported capture on Thursday of Tientsin by the national people's army, and the killing yesterday of General Kuo Song. ; In the capture of Tientsin, the people's arm was said to have de feated troops of General LI Chlng, former governor of Chlhll pro vince. Peking, It la thought, may be the destination of the marines sailing from Manila, since they would not likely be needed at Tientsin, where the army has charge of American military ac tivities. Admiral Clarence S. Wil liams, commander of the Asiatic fleet, recently Informed the navy department that he planned to send soldiers to Shanghai as re lief units and possibly the marines 111 relieve others at Peking. ..EXPLOSION ON WAR8HIP.
