resolved firmly, as Secretary Hay hnd
Said In his note Of July 3, that In the
end the guilty parties should be held
to the uttermost accountability. The
Chinese government has iaken this
intlmGtIon to heart, and perhaps has,

ready begun the punishment Of him
and Other Chinese leaders who Nre
held guilty.
The decree recited by Sheng is felt
to be of the utmost importance as in
dlcNtlng complete change of heart
on the part of the reignmg dynasty.
II means that the rtac5ionary lnflu-
ences which have been dominant in
PelIln throughout the uprising and
have continued of late days, have suf-
fered a complete overthrow, and that
their most conspicuous figures are DE-
graded on trial.

The Importance of the action Is
shown by the determination to try
Prince Tuan before the imperial clan

tribunal Of China and Is the only one
having judicial jurisdiction over mem'
