The announcement that Mr.. Eliot of the
British embassy has been among those re-
ceiving the queens New Years honOrs by
being made a knight of the Order of St.
Michael and St George vas received with
great interest in diplomatic circles here, as
Mr. Eliot is well known and universally es-
teemed. When the Samoan difficulty
reached a critical stage last summer, Mr..
Eliot was designated as the British COM
missioner for Samoa, joining Baron Stern
berg of Germany and Mr. Bartlett Tripp
for this country in a trip to Samoa, which
had the salutary effect of relieving the i'm
mediate trouble and paving the way for the
final adjustment of the veNing Samoan con-
troverSy. Throughout the difficulty Mr..
Eliot acted in such way to win not
only the strong approval of his own gov
ernment, but also the best wishes from
the authorities in Washington, so that the
honor now conferred on him is gratifying
to State Department officials, well to
his associates of the diplomatic corps.

BRADLEY TRIAL BEGINS.
States Testimony Not Damaging to
the Defendant.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
ROCKVILLE, Md, December 3-The
trial of Edward Bradley, the young white
man who was indicted at the recent ses-
sion of the grand jury for the murder of
John Armstead Gray near Rockville on the
night of July 4, began in the circuit court
here this morning, with Judge Henderson
on the bench. The jury was quickly select
ed, ten of the regular panel and two tales
men being accepted.
Bradley is about twenty-five years old,
and has wife and little child, both of
whom were in court today. His home is
in Potomac district. where he is engaged
in farming. Gray, the dead man. was also
a farmer, and was about sixty years Old.
He was an uncle by marriage of the pris-
oner.
The testimony produced by the state this
morning was not damaging to the accused
but rather tended to sustain the self-de-
Tense theory. Several witnesses swore that
they heard Bradley say just before the
shots were fired: Don't press me, boys.
If you do I'll shoot
