EASTMAN ARGUMENTS.
Attorney Elder Made an Able Plea for
 His Client.

Cambridge, Mass, May 10.--The ar guments in the murder trial of Charles R. Eastman were made to-day. Sam uel J. Elder spoke for the defense, before a crowd of spectators which packed the court room MT Elder ill op- ening made a statement to the jury of points on which the government based it's claim that the shooting of Rich ard Grogan, Jr, last July was murder and not accident. These points, were: Alleged threats against Grogan; the conduct of the defendant after the shooting: the bullet that killed Grogan, and Eastman's story of the affair.
 MT Elder characterized the story of John Grogan 3fFthat Eastman had made threats against Rich ard Grogan as ian invention which did not rise higher than the barroom surroundings of John 5Grogan's own youth.' He declared also that it was unreasonable to sup- pose that Eastman. if plotting Gro gan's death. should say before the mother of the victim that his days were numberd.

Pekin, May 10.-The Americans have evacuated the districts under their con- trol with the exception of the forbid den city, which they will continue to occupy in spite of foreign objec- tions unless orders to the contrary are received from Washington.

 The departure of the troops for Ma nila has been delayed ten days, owing to the transport Indiana being quaran- tined at Nagasaki because of case of small pox on board. The American soldiers here have been vaccinated.
