New YORK, Feb. 2.-Ow Yung
Ming, the Chinese Consul in this
city, called upon the prominent
businessmen Of Chinatown yester
day afternoon to prepare plan for
the capture Of the murderous vii
lians who, with Tong Sing, the Chi
nese criminal sentenced last week
in Newark have for some time past
terrorized the Mongolian commun

the duty of every law abiding citi
zon Of the Chinese Empire in the
United States to see that no such
dangerous characters be allowed to
remain a large. and that immediate
steps should be taken to secure
their arrest and punishment. The
Consurs visit to Chinatown re-
suited in his making an offer of
1910 for the capture of each of
Tong Sings accomplices. The
money is being raised by assessing
every Chinese merchant $40 and
every laundry in the city or suburbs

A TRIAH MATCH.
Edwards Put on His Metal to
Test Its Quality.

Edwards Put on His Metal to
Test Its Quality.
Yesterday afternoon a Comstock
boxer came down to Carson to have
couple of Queensbnry rounds
with Edwards, the colsrd pugilist.
He was brought down BY some
Virginia men who wanted to get
some idea of where was the best
place to put their money in the
forthcoming match which takes
place on the 9th.
The affair came off at the Opera
Houre in the presence of few in
vited guests, and was conducted
strictly under the rule.
The opponent of Edwards
weighed 2l0 pounds, and has tn.
reputation of being the best boxer
in Virginia City. When they
faced each other on the stage, the
difference in size was at once the
subject of comment. After few
seconds Of play. Edwards got an
opening and reaching the Others
jaw, received terrible body blow
In return, which sent him up
against the scenery. The Com
stocker followed with a terrific
Highlander on the Others face.
but it didn't keep him away, when
Edwards closed and lively rattle
Of short-arm fighting followed.
The two clinehed and were separ-
ated. In the second round the
Comstocker made a dead set for
the others head and knocked him
down several times, but Edwards
kept coming to the front and was
on his legs smiling after every fall.
He was clearly overmatched, by
man seventvpounds heavier. but the
mill was mainly to give certain of
his hackers chance to ascertain
his staying qualities. and they ex-
pressed themselves as satisfied
with the result.
In the audience, was Harry Dam
Private Secretary of the Governor
OF California, and wlile the specta-
ence was waiting for the Com
stocker to show up, some wag in
the crowd pointed him out as the
Storey county pugiiist, and he was
soon surrounded by gaping
crowd taking in his points. Sew
eral went up and felt Of his muscle |
much to his establishment. and |
last evening he was on the trail of |
the man who had started the joke. |
Governor Laughton is
held responsible for the sell.
