Kuang Hsu was aware that a single institution was not sufficient
to accomplish that end. On July 10th therefore he ordered that
"schools and colleges be established in all the provincial
capitals, prefectoral, departmental and district cities, and
allowed the viceroys and governors but two months to report upon
the number of colleges and free schools within their provinces,"
saying that "all must be changed into practical schools for the
teaching of Chinese literature, and Western learning and become
feeders to the Peking Imperial University." He ordered further
that all memorial and other temples that had been erected by the
people but which were not recorded in the list of the Board of
Rites or of Sacrificial Worship, were to be turned into schools
and colleges for the propagation of Western learning, a thought
which was quite in harmony with that advocated by Chang Chih-
tung. The funds for carrying on this work, and the establishment
of these schools, were to be provided for by the China Merchants'
Steamship Company, the Telegraph Company and the Lottery at
Canton.
On August 4th he ordered that numerous preparatory schools be
established in Peking as special feeders to the university; and
on the 9th appointed Dr. W. A. P. Martin as Head of the Faculty
and approved the site suggested for the university by Sun
Chia-nai, the president. On the 16th he authorized the
establishment of a Bureau for "translating into Chinese Western

schools and colleges"; and on the 19th he abolished the "Palace
examinations for Hanlins as useless, superficial and obsolete,"
thus severing the last cord that bound them to the old regime
