Pekin. Sept. 22.-An 1mper1a1 eafet
Just issued definitely announces that
the Emperor Of China has resigned his
power Of the Empress (DOwager EN-
press?) who has ordered the ministers
to deliver to her in future. their. ON
cial reports.
It is difficult to obtain reliable In
formation at the palace In regaf0 to
the proceedlngs. but the recent reform
atory edfcts probably caused thu
change. While the Emperorwa sub
servient and q mere fgureheAi. the
Dowager Empress permitted him 10
remain in peace. But as soon a. he at
tempted to act on his own Initiative
his practical disposition was the result.
His principal advisor, Kang- Yumoa.
the Cantonese reformer, fed In spite Of
the vigorous attempts made to arrest
him and 1t is said he Is now on his way
to Shanghai.
The effect of the change must be
great. and in all probability Ii Hung
Chang will be reinstated In power and
Russian influence will increase The
hopes Of reform 80 ardently cheriahetl
by the intelligent factions Of the Chi
nese. are now Impossible Of fulflflmens.
The sudaenness Of the coup b said to
be due to the desire Of the Dowager
Empress to prevent the mission Of the
Marquis Ito being successful. The
Japanese statesman recently came to.
Pekin with the object OF trying to
bring about an alliance Offensive AMI
defensive between Japan and China.
The new order OF things will UNI
doubleday prejudice British Interests
in China. 1t is reported that the next
edict will give the full reasons for the
change. The wording OF the present
edict is not yet obtainable, but It h In
effect that the Emperor requested tho
Dowager Empress to assume power,
this being the third time the requeAk
has been made.
The Marquis Ito. In an interview be-
fore the edict was issued, said the EN-
peror received him, yesterday, In the
most cordial manner and said he hoped
to have the advantageof the advice OF
the Marquis in the refornIs- which His
Majesty intended to undertake.
The MSrQuis, even then, feared that

Chinese officials would nnlhfy tie re-
forms, although ne believed the En-
peror was acting In good Faith.

has issued an order permitting chem
to be exhumed and taken to Southing-

Undertaken F. L. Curtis of Stratford,
denies that Charles H. Plumb Of that
town, now under arrest for compile
ity in the crime, has had the use of any
wagon or team owned by him for the
last three months. Plumb Is still IN

have to connect him with the case

What suspicion or evidence the po-
lice have against young Guilford they

The police are now said to be posi-
tive that they know whom they want
to arrest for committing the opera

at the earliest opportunity. They also
are sure of the place where the dis
