Reported Transactions Declared False-Treas-
ury DEPARTMENT Purchases.
New YORK, Sept. SIT has been cur
rently reported on the street that large
amount of new certificates have been ex-
changed for gold and the gold sent at once
to Mexico, where it is at premium, and
more silver purchased, which in time was
again SOLD to the United States Government,
and the same process again continued, the
traders clearing a handsome profit in each
transaction. At the Sub-Treasury, it is
said, they have no knowledge of any large
amount of certificates being exchanged for
gold. The same is the report from the
Treasury Department at Washington. On
the contrary the silver notes so lar issued
were of $1,000 denomination and not ayaila-
BILE for ordinary transactions. so they have
been exchanged for small notes and silver
coins. Bullion-br brokers declare the stories
of the reported transaction with Mexico
false.
WASHINGTON, Sept. S.-The amount of
silver offered for sale to the Treasury De-
partment to-day was S64.060 ounces. The
amount purchased was 255000. at SLIP to
SLIPS.

FLYING BULLETS.
Excitement in the Chinese Dis
tTiCt Of Sacramento.
Proprietor Of a Tan Game Dangerously Shot
by a Highbind8r.
Impressive Funeral Services Over the Re-
mains Of the Victims of the Ey-
plOSiOn al Spokane Falls.


SACRAMENTO, Sept. s. There was
shooting affray and great excitement in Chi
natown, on l street, between Third and
Fourth, shortly after o'clock this morning.
A number of shots were fired and there was
a great scattering among frightened Mongo-
lians. From what could be learned it ap-
pears that Loo Soon is the proprietor of
= tan-game and three women located in China
town. This morning a highlander named
Look Ling Sing entered Soon's place of
business and began "bucking" at the tan
game. BE was lucky, and the game soon
owed him a considerable amount. When
he demanded a settlement Loo Soon
said: you robbed a man of S1G0 at
Third and [ streets some time ago, and now
that you have plenty of money you had bet
ter pay" This alIusion to a past event did
not please Ling Sing, and, whipping out
revolver, he banged away at Loo Soon.
The bullet was aimed with deadly intent,
and buried itself in Loo Soon's bowels.
The wounded man grappled with his assail-
ant. however, and, after struggle, secured
possession of the weapon. Ling Sing, find
ilS HlHSeI ClSaFineu, Sprang INTO the street,
closely followed by Loo Soon. The former
darted behind line of cars, but Loo Soon
was in close pursuit, and fired three or four
shots at the fleeing man. Ling Sing ran into
the basement of a waSh-house on Fourth
street, and Loo Soon dived after
him, and was searching wildly for
his foe when Officer Frank Rider arrived on
the scene and arrested and disarmed him.
The wounded man was taken to the Recev-
ing Hospital and City Physician Nichols was
summoned, but the friends of the bleeding
MongOlian would not allow a white physi-
elan to touch the man, declaring that they
wanted the services of a Chinese doctor.
The officers in charge would not agree to
Chinese doctor b eing summoned to the sta
tiOn-house, pleading the value of expert
testimony in view of fatal result, and Loo
soon at last left the hospital aud seated
himself in a chair in the Waiting-rO0m,
where he pressed blOod-Stained
handkerchief to the wound in
his abdomen. The bullet entered the left
side, nearly on a line with the navel, and
passed around TO the right, coming 50 near
passing through that 1t could be felt be-
meath the skin. Portions Of the clothing
were carried into the wound, and there is
danger of blood poisoning. City Attorney
Hart made out a warrant charging Look
Ling Sing with assault with intent to COM
init murder Cinnamon say that he is a
very lad man, and that he has been impfi-
Gated in several affairs of criminal nature.

Portland Census Remuneration.

PORTLAND, Sept. 8.-Supervisor Mech
tonight received authority from the Census
Office to give out for publication the returns
of the census enumerated for the city of
Portland and Mutnomah County. The
total for the city and county as returned by
tile enumeratoTs is 75.257, a gain of a. 200
over the former enumeration. Within the
city limits there are e. 442. This includes
East Portland. Within the county outside
Of the city limits the number is L, 825. This
accommodation was made under the eye OF
Special Agent Leland of the Census Bureau
at Washington, ID. c., and the result is fully
approved by him.
This is gain of about "a per cent over
the population of the county by the Oregon
census taken in June. The same proportion
ate gain throughout the State would give
Oregon population of $4,000, which is
about what the vote at the June election in
dcated. The June census gave the State

judge miller says Bondsmen Must
Present unenoumbered Property.
In the Police Court this afternoon
Lawyer Morse made a motion before
Judge Miller that he suspend the court
rule that no man who had any eucum-
b1ance on his property would be ac-
ceptable for bail Mr.. Morse argued
that the rule was an unreasonable one,
as II would virtually disbar nine.t .tenths
of the residents of the District from
going on bonds.
The motion was made In connection
with the case Of Egbert Dudley, vino
was charged with selling liquor without
q license. The trial was continued, and
bail In the sum Of $500 required.
Mr.. Robinson, Dudley's brother, who
had property worth $4,000, but which
had an encumbrauce Of $500, was re-
fused rs bnndsman.
Judge Miller declined to set the rule
aside, and said that Il did not make any
difference whether Robinson was worth
$1,000 instead of 50 900 he would
rule the same way. Dudley had to put
up $500 cash collateral.
