~ EKING, Nov. THE legations
believe that the end OF the Man
chu dynasty is imminent. There
seems to be no hope Of saving
even nominal throne.
The provinces north of the Yangtze
river are declaring for republic. The
only force of Manchu troops large
enough to cope with the local situa-
ton anywhere is In Peking. There are
indications tonight that the capital will
be surrounded before many days by
rebels.
Where the court will take refuge is
a question. There are evidences that
the court intended to proceed to Chang
kiankau (Kalgan).
Troops guarding the route to that
town, which lies in Pechili. 125 miles
northwest of Peking. were expected
to dynamite the tunnel after the pass
age of the train bearing the emperor
and his household.
Reports have been received that
Changkiankau is unsafe.
J., Ching'S Palace Deserted
The national assembly is holding
meetings without a quorum, but GER
tain members are endeavoring to main
tain nucleus. No Tung. vice presi-
dent of the privy council, has taken
rooms for his family in a hotel in the
legation quarter. Prince Ching's palace
seems deserted. It is believed he is in
the forbidden city.
American soldiers, with supply of
skyrockets. were sent to each outlying
mission compound tonight.
The legation has advised the Ameri-
cans to come into the quarter or seek
other places Of safety. A concerted
attack upon foreigners is not feared.
but there are many within the city
who are opposed to foreigners.
Chang Declines Appointment
General Chang Shao Tsen, who was
, appointed by imperial edict as envoy
to proceed to Yangtze provinces to con-
ciliate the people, has declined the ap-
pointment. saying that he preferred to
remain with his own troops at Lam
chau.
The government proposed today to
cut the Peking- -Tientsin railway be-
yond Fengttai to prevent additional
troops from arriving. 1t is said that
the British minister, Sir John Jordan.
protested on the ground that Great
Britain was entitled to operate the
railway in the event of the suspension
of service in accordance with an old
agreement Consequently the line is
still open.
Fall of Annoy Imminent
AMOY. China, Nov THE fall of
this city before the revolutionists ap-
pears imminent. There is no foreign
warship in this port. but all the con-
suls have appealed to their govern
ments to send vessels here.
Meantime the consuls are devising
plans for the defense Of foreigners if
an emergency arises.
The American and British consulates
We're designated today as places OF
refuge for women and children The
locations OF these consulates are most
favorable to an easy embarkation on
steamers in the harbor. If this be-
comes necessary. A system of sig
hals has been arranged to warn for
eigners OF the first approach OF danger.
no anti-foreign sentiment had de-
Veloped today. Taitao Ching is in
hiding and the police keep out of
sight. There is no local government
worthy of the name The soldiers
recognize no authority. but fortu-
nately remain quiet. Public sentiment

Admission That Epilspho Coming Out
of Fit, Might Through Law of Sug-
gestion Kill One He Feared,
Regarded as Important.
Case Will Probably Not Go To Jury
Before Middle of Next
Week.

Attorney Frank F. Bumps, who
with Attorney Ormond F. Hunt, is
defending DR.. q. K Boyajian, charged
with the murder of his nephew, Har-
toon Gostanian, whom he shot in the
police court, April 80, 1909, said to
The Times, Wednesday, that he
didn't think the case would 60 to the
jury until Tuesday or Wednesday OF
next week. He pointed out that the
prosecution has few more witnesses
to produce in rebuttal, and that the
defense had a number of witnesses
to put on in sur-rebuttal. In addition
to this additional testimony, he said
the arguments of the prosecution and
defense to the Jury would take at
least two days. Also, he explained,
Thursdays session would be Short;
as Judge Connolly would be going
to Lansing at noon, and that there
would be no session on Monday, be-
cause of the election.
The defense feels that IL scored
heavily in the crossexamniation OF
DR.. W. l.. Babcock, one OF the alien
lists testifying for the prosecution.
Wednesday morning. His statement
to the effect that man who feared
another person, might, as result or
such fear, after coming out OF an
epileptic fit, shoot the person he fear
ed, through the law of suggestion. is
regarded by the defense as the
strongest point IL has gained In the
whole trial. according to Mr.. Bumps.
Testimony has been offered by the
defense to show that DIR. Boyajian
feared Gostanian, because OF threats
that Gostanian made against him.
DR.. Babcock, who. Tuesday after
noon, declared that DR.. Boyajian, was
sane when he killed his victim, was re-
called TO the stand for cross-examina-
ton, Wednesday morning.
Attorney o. +. Hunt. for the de-
fense questioned the witness regard
ing his practice since his graduation
DR.. Babcock said he had never been
in public practice, explaining that he
had been connected with a number OF
hospitals and asylums before coming
to Detroit as superintendent of Grace
hospital, seven years ago.
Mr.. Hunt asked Dr. Babcock IL there
was a specified remedy for epilepsy.
and the witness answered that there
was not.
The witness said, in response to
question, that he had no acquaintance
with DIR. Boyajian. They had never
