THE SUMNER TRIAL.
Proceedings of tho Courtmartlal Nearly at


An End.
NAVY YARD, BROOKLYN, Sept. c.
The courtmartial of Captain Sumner,
United States Navy, on the charges of
neglect in improperly decking the
United States cruiser Colum bia, Is
rapidly nearing an end. At the session
to-day Naval Constructor Francis T.
Bowles teBtitied that he had examined
the Columbia's injuries and that they
were not serious. He ascribed them as
being generally local in nature and not
structural.
Lieutenant Commander Mark then
addressed the court In behalf OF Captain
Sumner. He said that everything Cap
tain Sumner did was done with due
care. and at no time did he exhibit the
slightest negligence in the performance
Of his duties. His interest aud concern
in the ship he commanded amounted to
almost perfection, for he was proud OF
the honor of commanding the Colum bia.
Capt. Sumner was aware that the
safety OF his ship at all times was his
chief duty on earth and the failure to
execute that duty was only an error of
judgment. The trip across tho Atlantic
and the nature of the damage found
when she reached here proved conclu-
sively shat the nhtp herself had not been
iDjuriously strained, although the OUT
side skin had been injured. The pro-
ceediDga were then adjourned until 10
O'Clock tomorrow morning.

ommended.

LEXINGTON, KY, Sept. 6.-President
&c. ID. Pearce, of the Kentucky Wesleyan
College at Winchester, to-day received
the following stirring letter from Dr.
O. 4. Reid, of Shanghai, China, citi :
zen of the United States and presiding
elder OF the Shanghai district Metho-
dist Church South: Shanghai, August
lO.-Only two weeks sgo to-day sent
you an account of the Szechuen OUT
RACES, and to-day L am sending you
accounts of the massacre at Ku Chepg.
Had our minister acted promptly
and adequately in the first case the
second would probably not have oc-
Cured and we should have been spared
the spectacle of eight young and conse-
Grated women dragged from their beds
and brutality massacred, elpless infants
hacked to death and q faithful servant
OF God burned in his bed
II am sending you these accounts in
the hope that you will use them where
shey will do the most good. I wish
could put copy in the hands OF every
editor, every Congressman and every
other man who has any interest in the
welfare of the church or the honor of
his country.
I'VE do not ask for revenge, but we
do ask for justice and the protection
which every American has right to
demand, and which no civilized nation
has right to withhold from iss humb-
lest citizen Foreigners in China arc
unanimous in the belief that little
prompt end vigorous action would at
ence put an end to these things.
1--WE have lost all hope OF help from
the legation at Peking, and we are now
appealing directly to Washington. Will
you not help Us? Unless something is
speedily done we shall have to abandon
all our interior work, which represents
so many years OF toll and sacrifice
In our opinion the action required at
this time is the appointment of strong
commission with such rank and an,
thorisy as will enable them to try and
fix tho guilt OF the highest official. To
punish few coolies will be worse than
useless We must go TO the source OF
these troubles, which Is found in some

attempt was made by Chinese soldiers
to kidnap this person in the hope of
securing the reward which had been
offered for his delivery to the authori-
ties. The total number of arrests thus
far OF those concerned in the Ku Cheng
massacre is 100. Twenty three of the
number have been convicted, but up to
this sime sentence has not been passed
upon any Of them, the viceroy of Flu
Ken demanding the right to review the

SAN Francisco, Cal, Sept. 6-The
taking Of testimony in the trial Of Theo-
dore Durant is proceeding slowly. Dur
ing the three days in which Witnesses
have been on the stand all that has
been established Ia that Blanche La
mont 10 dead and that her body bears
marks of violence. The prosecution ia
inclined to make speed by wasting time
in unnecessary queries. On the other
hand the defendants seem to be thread
ing uncertainties and searching for
teohnicalities
In the cross examination OF witnesses
the defendants attorneys continually
throw out lines, hoping to catch dis
crepancy in the testimony. They are
diligently seeking for flaws, but, as yet,
have not found anything. Il is now
said the defense will rely largely on the
improbability OF the prosecution prov
ing its case beyond any doubt. To-day's
witnesses In the trial were introduced
by the prosecution to complete the evil
dence that Blanche Lamont was MUIR
dered.
Policeman Riel, who accompanied
Detective Gibson to Emanuel Church
on the day Blanche Lannon'S BODY was
discovered, testified to the condition OF
the corpse and to the presence of blood
on the floor near the girls head on the
beltry stairs and on the floor where 1t
bad dripped from the steps. He stated
there was no evidence OF struggle
there, the inference being developed by
the defense that the murder was COM
mitted down stairs but tho body WAS
carried to the tower.
The defense will try to chow that
one man could not have borne this
burden unaided. The prosecution will
try to prove that Blanche Lamont
weighed only ITO pounds and that
Durant could have carried her with
little difficulty. G. G. Noble, uncle of
Blanche, was recalled by the district
attorney to again establish the identi-
fcation of his niece, both in the church
and subsequently at the morgue.
j. f. Hallett, morgue deputy, told
how he and another deputy had taken
the body from the church TO the morgue.
Policeman II. j. Coleman swore that on
April II, when searching in Emanuel
Church for evidence Of the murder he
found two door knobs which had been
broken of the belfry door and atter-
wards concealed
