A Berlin dispatch to the Fremdenblatt, of Hamburg, says the entire Clerical party in the Keichstag, with the exception of three members, voted to support the stand taken by Mathias Erzberger, the Clerical leuder, who made a sen Rational speech In the secret session of the main committee, attacking the admiralty and pan-Germans as the gieat obstacles to peace and advocat ing peace without annexations or in demnities and the introduction of a parliamentary forn of government. This action was taken, the dis patch says, under the presumption that Chancellor von Eethniann-Holl-weg would retire. The Clerical party Is the largest In the reichstag. Hitherto it has work ed with the Conservatives in giving the government a majority. Any such move as Indicated by the foregoing dispatch would amount to a political overturn of the first magnitude. This dispatch bears out advices cabled from Berlin that unless all Indica tions failed, a momentous upheaval was at han't.

Official dispatches to the Chinese legation here said the re public had been fhmly re-established at Nanking with Feng Kwo Chang, the former vice president, as presi dent of the nevv provisional govern ment. General Chang Hs'ju, leader of the attempt to restore the Manchu dy nasty in China, was reported ly Min ister Reinsch to have withdrawn his troops into the Imperial City and the Temple of Heaven, the two most historic and beautiful sections of Pe kin. Loyal troops of the rspublic sur round the city, and complete destruc tion of ths monarchlal movement is considered only a matter of a short time. Uninterrupted communication 1 with Tien Tsin was restored July 8. Chang Hsun's choice of the Im perial City and Temple of Heaven as his place of refuge after his desper ate project had been swamped by a wave of universal republican opposi tion, confirms the belief here that he intends to hold China's priceless edi fices as a pawn for bis own personal safety.
