Peking, Oct. 41 -The Governipent ie
sued its expected edict granting practi
cal constitutional rule for China. j
Reports of Hankow'a capture by the
Imperial troopalast Friday are confirn -ed
today, though it is said the Imper
lalists' position is now strong, and the
rebels are expected to regain posses
sion of tbe town soon unless it is de
cided to accept the throne's offer of
concessions to the revolutionists.
Five hundred rebels were killed and
1,500 wounded in Friday's fighting
Th y were enormously outnumbered,
and suffered a cross fire from tbe fleet
under Admiral Sah previously report -
i d captured at the same time the Im
perial land forces were attacking them.
They fought desperately, and when
they retreutd did so in good ordtr. To
day the loyalists are threatening ' at

The Rev. A. H. Kepler, the Ameri
can missionary wounded, proves to be
in a more serious condition than at first
reported, He was struck in the neck
by a bullet while watching the fight
from the roof of a building in the Japa
nese concept-ions. His shooting was un
doubtedly accidental.
The Imperial edict apologizes for its
neglect in not having bowed ts the peo
ple's wishes soorer. It prom if ea to
exclude the nobility from the new Cab
inet vnd extends free pardon to all reb
els.
The edict, asalrealy forecast provides
for a. Parliament, revision of ths pres
ent effective Constitution, the substitu
tion of civil for military methods of.
maintaining order, responsibility of the
Cabinet to Parliament instead of the
Emperor, and curtailment of the lat-
ter's power t a point considerably lees
for example, than that of the Presi
dent of the United States.

WtlllGive Trust Greater '
t
Tirade Monopoly.
New York, Oct. 3IL The United
States Circuit Court, to which was re
ferred by the ifniied States Supreme
Court the task of pasting upon the re
organization or plans proposed by the
Amen ;an Tobacco Company has begun
that work.
Despite the widespread in erest in
the fight being made by independent-)
against the plan proposed on the grounds
that if approve!' tbe trust will gain even
a greater monopoly in the tobacco trade,
there were very few in court when pro
ceedings began.
Judge Lacombe, presiding, announced
that the attorneys of the. American To
bacco Company would first present their
plans. Following this representatives
of the security hold-ri and attorneys
representing the independents and oth
er outside interest, will be heard. Tne
Ameiican Tobacco Company will then
be given an opportinity to answer the
objections of the various opposing in
terests.
Attorney-General Wickersham Will
be heard after all the other speakers
have concluded. Lewis Cass Lidyard,
of counsel for the Tobacco Trust, was
the first speaker. He opened with a
general argument for "a sane and rea
sonable plan of adjustment" and pict
ured the "dire disaster" that might fol
low the appointment of a receiver for
the trust. A reemveoship, he said,
would force the security holders to pro
tect themselves, and would result in
the strongest kind of monopoly of 'the
tobacco business of the country. The
plan under which t ie trust proposed to
reorganize, Ledyard declared, had had
the benefit of suggestions from the Su
preme uourt, Irom Attorney-Ueneral
Wickersham and from other high gov
ernment officials.
In the brief filed by Attorney-Gener
al Wickersham-the right to -intervene
any time within five- years, regardlest
of what dissolution plan is approved, it
asked. He says it is impossible to tel
whether sny plan wMch might be aD
proved by the court would be satisfac
tory ; hence the request for the right of
iateivention.
The Attorney-General asks that no
one of the c impanies in'o which the
combination is t ) be broken up shall be
permitted t own stock in any of the
other ompanies.
Further to divorce business interests,
he asks that the companies be denied
he privilege of having the same offi
cers and director!, or occupying tne
same offices, employing the same clerks
or purchasing through the sme egen-
ciea. The government does not object
to each company controlling up to 40
per cent, of trirfbuiiiwus in its particu
lar line.
