band by the Police.
Officer Farren was informed Wednesday
afternoon ny King Silva that he had heard
of Chinawonen having been seen in the
neighborhood of Hoptown, on the Grant,
six or seven miles from the city, under such
circumstances as to give reasonable grounds
for the belief that one of them might be
Mrs. All Gong, the woman brought here
from Vallejo a few weeks ago on a false
charge of grand larceny, and who was sub
sequently spirited away. The officer in
formed officers Sullivan and Mccormick of
what he had learned, and it was decided
that the latter officers should rro-
coed to Hoptown and make a search.
They accordingly procured vehicle yes
terday morning, and, accompanied by All
Gong, the woman's husband, started on
their investigation. Several Chinese habit
tations were visited, but fruitlessly. Final
ly, about the time they had become almost
discouraged they met Mike Judge, who
was the one VINO had seen the women pro-
ceeding to HoptoWn, and, after ne had
heard where they had been, he declared
that if the missing woman was anywhere
in the vicinity she must be at All Sings
hop ranch, seven miles from town.
Thither they went. Sings wife appeared
in answer to their summons, and, on search
being made, Mrs. All Gong was found in
the upper story of the house. Chin All
Fee, the fellow who assumed to be her
brother-in-law at the time the charge of
grand larceny was examined, and with
whom she went after being discharged,
declining Rev. Mr.. Masters offer to escort
her back to Vallejo that afternoon, was in
the house, but attempted to escape. The
officers called to Mr.. Judge to head him off,
and he was captured before he had gone
many rods. Previous to this All Gong had
declared that when he found him he would
kill him, announcing "rll shoot him
through the blain." The officers much
against his will, took his pistol from him.
and thus in all probability saved All Fees
life. All Gong was delighted to find the
partner of his joys and sorrows, but she
was rather cool about it. When the party
arrived at the station house, on their return
to the city, he swung his hat in great glee,
and escorted her into the police office with
the utmost fondpess, holding her hand, as
though fearing some one might take her
from him. She was rather diffident,
and it was plain to be seen that she did not

with great heartiness, apparently fearing
that she was to have more trouble, and
perhaps be locked up. While she was sit
ting in the Chief S Office officer Sullivan
produced a photograph, and remarking
that great deal had been said about his
arresting her at Vallejo upon the word of
highbiuders and the evidence of picture
which no more resembled her than it did
the Statue of Liberty Enlightening the
World requested some of those present to
see whether the photograph bore any re-
semblance to her. 1t was very evident
that it was her likeness, and when ques-
toned whether it was hers, she laughed
good-naturedly and coquettishly remarked ::
You think it look like my eyes ?" All
Gong, coming up at that moment. re-
marked: THAT a picture of my wife
when when she younger" She subst .quently
of the day upon which she
appeared in Court to answer
the charge against her she was kept in
room connected with the store of Fong
Ling Hung, on l street. That night Chin
All Fee called for her, said they would
start for Vallejo, put her in wagon and
she was conveyed to Hoptown, where she
had been three weeks in All Sings house
when recovered. All Gong's friends, in
their determination to find her procured
writ of habeas corpus from the Supreme
Court, returnable before Judge Murphy of
San Francisco, and now that she has been
found she will doubtless be taken before
him in response to the writ. Both she
and Chin All Fee are still at the station
house, as are also Di Choy, the woman who
swore to the false charge against her. and
also another Chinawoman, who was ar
rested as an accessory. The officers of the
Government steamer Ranger, upon which
All Gong is employed, and the gentlemen
connected with the Chinese missions, have
expressed their determination to probe
this case to the bottom, and have punish
ment inflicted where it belongs and it
would seem that there is a good case
against Di Chey and Chin All Fee for coz
spiracy or kidnapping. Yesterday afternoon
All Gong and his wife had long talk,
during which she narrated the rough treat
ment she had received. She stated that
All Fee, after taking her to the house in
Hoptown, dug a hole beneath the floor
Just large enough for her to hide in, and
several times made her conceal herself
in it, on the pretense that some one
was coming in order to drill her for
the work. so that if any one did
come there would not be any mis-

let her have any tea, assuring her of ex-
cellent treatment, however, if she would
comply with his wishes. The statement
of her wrongs angered All Gong to
such an extent that he determined to have
vengeance About 5 P NJ. he entered the
general Office and told officer Farren very
quietly that he would like to speak to All
Fee His manner was so calm that Farren
consented, and gave the key TO officer
Leavy with request that he attend to the
matter. As soon as Leavy opened the
cell door Gong drew pistol, and in few
seconds Fee would have been perforated
with bullets but for the officers promptly
Selling Gong and calling for help. Officer
Farren and others ran to his aid and dis
armed Gong, but not without a desperate
struggle, he proving TO be very strong and
determined.
