FOR PEACEFUL OCCU-
PATION.
Shanghai, March 21.—The Chinese
Nationalists have entered the native
city of Shanghai. General Pi Hsu
chen; Com 'mander of the Northern
forces in China, is reported to. have
taken refuge hi the French concession.
The Cantonese have cut the Shanghai -
Nanking Railway,
Meantime. there is feverish activity
in the foreign settlements, The •barbed-
wire barriers in. the French concession
on the border have all been closed. The
main barriers of the international
settlement are still open, but they may
be closed at any moment.
Thousands' of armed and unarmed
soldiers are swarming through the
country outside the foreign settle-
ments, but every precaution has been
taken to keep them out.
Indications toenight were that there
would be no fighting close to Shang
hal. General Pi Hsu-chen, the Shan-
tung defender of Shanghai, it is re-
moved, has gone over to the Cantonese.
There was no confirmation of this re-
port, but it is stated that he sent a
representative to General Ho Ying-
Ghing, the Southern Commander, to
discuss the conclusion of a:truce in
order to avoid fighting'inthe Shang -
hat area.`
This, in connection with the fact
that the. Shantung forces have made
no attempt to hold the Southern line
descending on Shanghai, tends to con-`
firm the belief in foreign military and;
well-informed Chinese circles here
that some arrangement has been made`
regarding Shanghai between General'
Chang Kai-shek, the Cantonese Com-
mander-in-Chief, and General Chang
Tsung-chang, Governor of Shanghai,
i
whose whereabouts recently has been;
a mystery. Everything points to sucb •
an arrangement, and there is even the'
possibility that there is an under-
standing between General
Chang
Kai-
shek and Marshal Chang Tso-lin, the
Manchurian war lord.
There has thus far been no incident
on the British line, which is strongly
held, ' Seven thousand retreating
Shantung soldiers arrived outside the
French concession to -clay, but trade
no attempt to enter. It was their
presence that caused the French to
close their wire barriers.
British troops, beginning to -morrow,
will occupy the more remote British
houses which ate outside the settle-
ment boundary.
The position here to -night is such.
that the Southerners can occupy
Shanghai, except the foreign settle -
stents, as soon as they care to walk in.

Stewart of the Dominion, Observatory
here has' received a communication
from, Harvard_ astronomers asking if
it would be .possible to obtain these
observations.
It would be an arduous journey for
the "Mounties," but officials here are
inclined to think they would make it
in the'' interests of science if word
could be sent to the post at Chester-
'field Inlet. The only means would be
by radio, and it is expected the uni-
versity will obtain the co-operation of el
one of the largo broadcasting stations
to send the message, which would be
received both at the Inlet and at Fort
Norman on ..the Mackenzie ' River,
where there is another post.
The shadow of the earth will blot
out the moon with the possible excep-
tion of one edge, where the border
shadow and that of the moon will'ap-
proximately coincide. Whether any `
light will come through will depend on
atmospheric conditions at • the time
existing along an arc of the earth's
surface extending approximately from
Chesterfield Inlet to Fort Norman, as
this will be the edge of the shadow. It
is for this reason that the university
has asked for observations at Baker
Lake.
