Ill HUNG'S MEMORIAL.
which He WIN Present to Empress at
PeIktn.

London, July 1S.-A dispatch from
Canton, received here today gives some
additional facts relative to the memorial
to the throne, which LII Hung Chang
told the foreign consuls he, as doyen of
the yiceroys, had induced all the other
viceroys, except two, to frame, as report
ed in the Daily Telegraph's Canton dis
patch of July 16. The memorial insisted
upon the necessity of five points, as fol-
lows:
First-Protection of foreigners in the
empire, whether war breaks out or not,
in order to preserve China's prestige as
a civilized state.
Second-The rescue of foreigners still
living, as negotiations will still be posi-
BILE and the governments OF those saved
might use their influence in favor of
China.
Third-A letter of apology to the Ger
man emperor for the murder of Baron
Won Ketteler, as well as a proposal for
the mediation of other powers and a
written assurance of China's good inten-
tions to be given to the United States
and France
Fourth-Full compensation for all
losses of lives and property of foreigners.
Fifth-Orders to be given to the mill
tary and civil authorities of Chi Ii to
punish robbers and marauding troops.
Ii Hung Chang added in his interview
with the foreign consuls, that in the
event of the legations being saved the
United States Great Britain and France
had promised to recognize his good will
as far as possible, and he expected sim
liar attitude by the other powers.

EASTMAN DISCHARGED.
Nothing to Show Shooting Was Not
Accidental.
we're Frustrated.

Cambridge, Mass, July 18.--The ex-
pected programme of the second day of
the trial of Charles h Eastman, the
Harvard Instructor for the murder of
Richard H Grogan, Jr., was varied this
morning and instead Of the examination
of witnesses being resumed at once, a
consultation of counsel with the judge
took place, after which Mr.. Elder, the
court having been opened, presented an
argument, the trend of which seemed to
be that the court should change the
charge against Mr.. Eastman from murder
to granddaughter.
Mr.. Elder dissected the evidence in the
prosecution at several points. He con-
tended that the course of the bullet was
downward proved nothing, as it co uld
have happenetd IL the shooting was acct
dental
Mr.. Elder said it was not a murder but
a most deploraDle accident. He said that
if the court was to hold the man on any
charge it should be one not more serious
than manslaughter.
District Attorney Weir replied to Mr..
Elder argument stating that this was
the most remarkable case he had ever
known, as nearly every witness who had
testified was a friend Of Eastman, the de-
PENDANT. Mr.. Weir contended that if the
evidence showed anything it showed that
the shooting was not accidental.
After giving attention to the argu-
ments presented by counsel, Judge Amy
announced that he saw nothing in the
evidence concerning the conduct of Mr..
Eastman to indicate that the shooting
was other than accidental and that he
could not IN Justice to himself hold the
man for the grand jury and he ordered
Eastman to be discharged.
