Imperial Edict j
The Imperial edict, which is from
ttt hand of the emperor, Hsuan Tung
says; ,
"I have reigned three years and
have always acted conscientiously in
the interests of the people. But I
have no.t employed men properly, as
I was without political skill. I have
employed too many nobles In political
positions, which contravenes consti
tutionalism. "On railway matters one whom I !
trusted deceived me. Hence public;
opinion was antagonized. When 1
urge reform, officials and the gentry,
seize the opportunity to embezzle.'
Much of the people's money has been
taken, but nothing to benefit the peo
ple has been achieved.
"On several occasions edicts ihave
promulgated laws, but none of them
has, been obeyed. The people are
grumbling, yet I do not know. Dis
asters loom ahead, but I do not see."
After referring to uprisings In va
rious places, the edict concludes:
"My throne promises to elect a
cabinet without nobles forthwith.
The Manehu rmrvrnPeV Sbl Hetl, presto
dent of the assembly Is permitted to
resign. The Chinese, Li Chla Chu,
succeeding him. The Manchu Kiu
Chuan, minister of constabulary, has
been removed."

reiterating her statement that she
kllled Garland to protect her honor
and because she feared he would do
her bodily injury.
Several times during the course of
her testimony the witness manifested
signs of excitement, speaking dis
tinctly but at intervals so rapidly that
It was Impossible for the court
stenographer to take down her state
ments. Throughout the day the court room
was crowded with spectators, many
of whom stood on chairs, in moments
of intense interest, in their efforts to
see the defendant on the witness
stand.
Mrs. McRee denied absolutely the
existence of any undue friendship be
tween herself ana Garland but ad
mitted that she and the deceased
were often together, adding that her
children always were with them. Most
of her testimony was complete, but
details of certain Incidents at the
timo of the killing apparently were
obscure In her mind because of the
excitement of the moment.
After questioning the witness con
cerning facts previous to the killing,
Mr. Dubison, for the prosecution,
asked:
"Why Did Vou Shoot Him?"
"Now, Mrs. McRee, tell me why did
you shoot Allan Garland."
"I shot- him to defend my honor,"
replied tho witness.
"Did you shoot him because he in
sulted you, or because you feared he
would do you some bodily harm?"
"Because I feared he would do me
bodily harm," replied Mrs. McRee.
