Sun Yat Sen's Warning.

New York Times 100 years ago today, April 28, 1913:
He Tells Shanghai Consuls the Loan Will Split the Empire.
    LONDON, Monday, April 28.— The Times's Peking correspondent says that the Kwo Ming Tang political party protested against the conclusion of the five-power loan of $125,000,000 without Parliamentary sanction, and Sun Yat Sen warned the Consuls at Shanghai that its completion would provoke a breach between the North and South.
    As ground for believing that certain military measures have been taken by the revolutionaries, the threat is not without significance.
