TRIAL BY JURY IN CHINA
NO MORE 0FFHAND EXECUTIONS BY IMPERIAL ORDER M0N-
MENTS WHERE EUROPEAN GRAVES WERE
DESECRATED

Washington, Nov. 13.-In addition to
the points said to be agreed upon at Pc
kin as a basis for settlement with China
as announced in cable dispatches, it is
understood that several other points are
likely to receive attention when the mat
ter is taken up with the Chinese envoys.
One of these is for making the city of
Pekin an "open port for while it is not
on the seacoast, the purpose is to ex-
tend to it freedom of commerce and in
tercourse with foreigners which now ap-
plies only to those open ports desig-
mated by treaties with China. The sug-
gestion that this action be taken has
been made in high Chinese quarters, and
it's advisability is urged by Pekin as the
capital of the Chinese empire and CEN
ter Of influence throughout the empire.
Another point which may be proposed is
that capital punishment by beheading or
otherwise, shall not occur in future by
imperial edict alone, but only after a
trial such as is given in civilized coun-
tries. the accused having an opportunity
to be heard. This does not apply to the
executions made necessary by the Boxer
movement.
Official dispatches have been received
from the viceroys of the southern prov
inces of China, who thus far, have been
more friendly to foreigners, stating that
they We're shocked by the execution of
the acting viceroy of Chill and also stat
ing that they feared this would have a

president of the company will fill the
position. In this connection it may be
worth noting that Mr.. Rogers recently
made an extended trip to the Anaconda
and other Amalgamated Copper proper
ties. 1t is barely possible that the death
Of Mr.. Daily may have a tendency to
bring about an earlier settlement of the
Montana litigation than would other
wise have been possible.
Considerable interest has been mani.
Tested over the probable disposal of Mr..
Days holdings of Amalgamated Copper
stock. According to some reports, Mr..
Daily sold out the bulk of his holdings
Icing ago. Others. in closer touch with
the company deny this. and say that the
stock has not been sold. and that Mr..
Daly's heirs are not likely to sell it. Ac-

Post, and that the discovery and qoca-
tdon OF the mine was made by Post while
living on this grub stake. Post and
others sold the mines to Holm & Co for
$4,000, who in turn made a conditional
sale to English & Son OF Spokane for
$35O,0OO. After doing years develop

Farther with the work, assigning as
reason that they had just become cogni-
