munications between tho city of

of tho Clilneso Ku stern railway, j
and Harbin, Manehurlan railway
center, has been dlsrupled, leaving
mllltury buppenli.KK along the

In doubt. - - :
Iast reports from the frontier
city told of Intermittent heavy
fighting between Chinese troops
and tho Soviet frontier army since
last Thursday, with Pogranlehnsya
Itself changing hands several
times. Sporadic fighting and bomb
ing from the air, both at Pogra-
nichtmya and at Mulln, were said
lo continue.
It was clear from such meager
reports as were obtainable that tlie
Manchtirian-Russlan frontier, from
I'ograulehnaya, north tu the mouth
of the Sungari river, and west to
Monchuli, western frontier city,
remained much disturbed by the
hostilities, although observers were
still skeptical that tho two armies
had met In a generul engagement.
One recent report, unconfirmed,
said tho entire city uf Pegranlch
naya was In flames. Press dis
patches raid It was much damaged
by flames, shelling and bombing,
although Chinese still held their
positions there.
The Russian air attack at Mulln
was said to hove been for the pur
pose of crippling the Chinese Mast
ern service by damaging the coal
mines in that section. Tho rail wit y
depends on these for fuel. How far
tho attack succeeded was not clear.
