Movements to Overthrow the Reixning

sSm@-~~Fs
Victoria, B. c.. Nov. s,--Telegrams
from Pekin to Japanese papers say
movements to overthrow the political
Chinese dynasty are developing with
increditable rnpidity. On October rs.
"a portion of Pekin was closed. For
Seigners were allowed ta pass the
guarded gates but natives were closely
scrutinized. Great activity Of feyolu-
tionartes is reported from several Sec
lions. A Shanghai paper says great
excitement exists at Tien Tsin among
native servants, many of whom are
leaving foreign employ owing to the
trouble that is expected.
Advices from Pekin published by
Japanese papers received by the EN-
press of China state that when the
Empress Dowager of China returned
hastily from her summer palace be-
cause of the bomb outrage at Pekin she
summoned the Emperor and asked
what he knew of the outrage where
upon the Emperor showed much con-
fusion. At signal from the Empress
party of guards appeared and led
the Emperor TO a hall where he has
since been confined. no one having
access to him and food being thrust
in through window. The Hochi
Shimbun says the Emperor occasion
ally raises shrfeks like those of a
lunatic.

violent and bloody murder. For when
II was over Bob Andrews came to Nc
Williams and telegraphed his brother
to come at once.
His brother John was living on a
farm near Repton. The brother came
on the next train, and Bob Andrews
got aboard with him, the two going to
the home of their father some 500 yards
from the station of Schuster.
Such is the evidence Of the prosecu-

1t Is generally believed even by the
prosecution that Bob and John had no
intention of killing their father.It II
believed, even by most of those who
think them guilty of the crime of MUIR
der. that what murder was intended.
II any was intended. was the killing of
the young step-mother. 1t is believ-
ed by some that even in the violent and
passionate quarrel no attempt was
made to kill the father.
The belief is that all Of them were
drinking. and, in the excitement OF
the occasion, they fred the shot that
killed their father. while their weapons
were pointed at the step-mother.
The young boy on the stand at the
last trial testified that when the step.
mother was attacked, she ran to the
old man for protection, and while she
was clinging to him. the shots were
fired. He swore. did this boy of IL.
that the man then attempted to kill
him to keep him from telling but that
he escaped by hiding in an old Chin

Right TO Them.

New York, Nov. S.--With the grant
ing of an order by Supreme Court Jus
tice William ]. Gayn )r in Brooklyn to-
night compelling Police Commissioner
McAdoo to remove every ballot box
from all the precincts in Greater New
York to the Bureau of Elections. Will
liam r. Hearst, the defeated municipal
Ownership League candidate, took his
first legal step in his fight to secure
a recount of the votes cast on election.
The order was granted after Justice
Gaypor ad reviewed afiiddvits submit
ted by Mr.. Hearst's attorney and half
an hour later Colonel Alexander Bacon
and F. w. Brown. representing Mr..
Hearst served the order on Commits
sioner McAdco, who sent out general
order to every precinct In Greater New
York, instructing the captains or other
officers in charge to send the ballot
boxes straightway to the Bureau OF
Elections In Manhattan.
In signing the order Justice Gaynor
said: 1.-THE police have nothing what
ever to do with the ballot boxes and 1t
is most astonishing that they should
have possession of them. They have
no right to even touch them. The or
der is 81 anted.
The granting of the order came I'M
expectedly and caused much surprise
and with the opinion of Justice Gaynor
that the police have no right to the
ballot boxes and should not even touch
them a new aspect Is placed on the
case.
This is the first time such an order
was ever issued and heretofore the po-
lice have had charge of the ballot boxes
after the count has been taken at poll
ing places. They are removed to the
station houses Immediately after the
inspectors and clerks have counted UP
the ballots.
Mr. WINS. the defeated Republican
mayoralty candidate. was asked by
Hearst TO act as his counsel in the fight
