OP) Tsao Kun has resigned the presidency of the central Chinese, govern ment. It Is understood that General Feng Yu-Hslang, who Is In con trol of the capital, has 'nstruo,cd the cabinet to carry on. ATTACK LAUNCHED PEKING, Oct. 25. OP) It wns stated authoritatively that General Wu Pei-Fu, Chihli lender, who was reported to have fled to 3'singtao with his troops, has this morning Jaunciud a heavy attack on the Shanhaikwan front in an endeavor to turn the right flank of the opposing forces of Gen eral Chang Tso-Lin, the Manohuriun war lord. General Wu, It was believed hero, apparently determined to try for a quick final decision in his war on Gen eral Chang, by assuming the offensive instead of a strategic withdrawal. His men, it was said, evidently were un aware of the recent eventa in Peking brought about by the defection of the "Christian general," Gen Yu-Hsinng. and their morale was reported as ex cellent. MANDATE ENDS WAR FEKIXG, Oct. 23. OP) A man date Issued last night by President Tsao Kun of the central Chinese goveruini'ut, ending the war In which the l'i'king forces have been' resisting the armies of General Chang Tso-Lin, the Manchurinn leader and exiling General Wu Pei-Ku, iuiiitary bend of the Peking guvernment to Tibet, h.'.s led to the ssuniptiou that Mititchu rian and Peking military chieftainsi have reached an agreement. This assumption gave color to the surmise voiced in many quarters that the overthrow of the Peking govern ment by General Keng Y'u-Ilsian;, known ns the "Christian general" w.it with the knowledge anil probably by agrement of General Chang Tso-I.iu. General Feng returned to Peking to oust file government utyler the banner of which he was thought to be fight ing while his armies were supposed to be at ,lch"l defending that P'nl against General Chang'a Mnnchurin'u invasion. The cabinet resigned today, simul taneously with the drafting of pence mandates by which President Tsio Kun terminated the war in romplim'e with an ultimatum from General Feng and his associates. It is .understood, however, that Premier Yen sed For eign Minister Ir. V. K. Wellington Koo, will continue to function tem porarily. Failure on the part of President Ts.io Kun to fulfill his pre-eleion promises, coupled with the domineer ing attitude of Genera! Wu Pei-Fu, who controlled the actions nf th; president and used his influence to promote his ambitions at tJie eipense ; of others, made possible the over- throw of th governmert by the I "Christian general" Feng. j The action of General Wu as mdi tary head of the government embark i ing upon t' war with General IVj ; Lin without the nere.sary t.r,na--1 WU PEI-FU IN FRESH ATTACK oran tlon. aff.ir.lnl an opportunity fur tJ." : peri"'l. dirsatisfied ilemenH to effeet i JfI.TN' '.MA1I JIKI.I), I'ortlnnd, rh.inite wliifh thejr mueh drsired. nut 0 .frnrr end firat period: Ida which they deepaired of obtain 0. mnnford, 0. while (Jeneral Wu reta.ced uad.nde-ll '.

VriWriaWiitaWi1OTtaaf Mrs. Wallace and Daugh ter, Ruth, at Bodsida When End Cama Toxemia Poisoning Follow ing Operation Is Causa of Death WASHINGTON, Oct 25. tm-t Secretary Wallace of the agricultural department, died today at tho Naval . hospital. ; The secretary passed sway at 4 p. m. with Mrs. Wallace and their daughter Jliss Jtuth, at the bedside. He had been unconscious since early thiB morning. His death resulted from ToemtS poisoning which followed an opera tion performed a week ago in an ei (ort to relievo sciatia. As far back as the family records go, ancestors of Henry Cantwell Wal lace, secretary of agriculture in the cabinets of President Harding and President Coolidge, have been identi fied with agriculture. Several of them attempted new vocations and profes sions but all, foe one reason or an other, returned to weld s continuous chain of farmers. Born In Illinois. Mr. Wallace was born in Bock Is land, 111., May 11, 1S60, the eon ot Henry and Nannio Cantwell Wollace. Tho chlcr Wallace waa a minister in his early life, but retired to the farm to restore his health, moving from Illinois to Iowa where the future hend of the department of agriculture grew to mauhood. Like many another farmer boy, Mr. Wallace fought hard for an education. Ho worked on' the farm in summer' and attended a vilhigo school in win ter until ho was ready to enter col lege, j. Knterlng Iowa State Agricultural College at 10, Mr. Wallace completed two years of work before an emer gency arose which took him back to the farm. A tenant on his father's form gave up his lease nnd Mr. Wal lace took up tho job for himself. It was five years before ho was sble again to go to college but when he did get back to school be completed a two years' course in one. Took Up Writing. 1'uring the years Mr. Wallace was out of college, he took up writing on farm topics anil from that beginning fhere grew what now is known as Wallace's Farmer. This literary work also weighed Ntrongly in his appointment as pro feasor of dairying in the Iowa State t.'ollege. The head of the agricultural college at that time wos James Wil son, afterwards secretary of agricul ture for 111 years. The farm magazine was founded in IS!i. hy Mr. Wallace, his brother, John P. Wallace and their father. The threo were asHociatcd as publishers until the father's death in 191IJ, since which the two brothers have contin ued the paper. Two sons of tho secretary are now following their fother's footsteps and have hecomo identified with tiie in alitution. I s,r Wallace married in 1SS7 Mls j Miry Hrmlhead, a descendant of one earlier faiulies of the !'n!li-l States. Ho wos of Scotch-Ii-Uh de- scent, his grandfather coining to America from the nortL of Ireland. MARVIN APPOINTEO WASHINGTON, Oct. I'o. Charlea F.
