near II o'clock on Tuesday night word
was carried TO the Sheriff's Office that a
| murder had been committed in China
town. The Sheriff and a Deputy at
| once proceeded to the spot. and near the
bridge this side of the railway crossing
found the dead body Of Chinaman.
| Coroner Meder was next summoned. land
the body was examined. The deceased
WAS identified as All See. who had car
ried on the business OF sloemaking in
Chinatown. 1t was said of him that he
had returned from Virginia City on the
9 o clock train that evening; that he had
made purchases in Virginia. and was
wsylsid and murdered on his way home.
He had been struck on the head from
behind with some heavy instrument.
and the finding OF a heavy iron bolt in
the vicinity Of the murder leads to the
supposition that that was the weapon
with which he was hit. After being evil
IDENTITY beaten senseless All See was cut
in the throat and abdomen, and a sheath
knife was found near by covered with
blood. The Coroner will hold an inquest
in the case on Friday next. In the
meantime no arrests have been made.

the murder; but will wait further de-
velopments before making any arrests
