A HIGHBINDER CAUGHT
Chased by a Policeman He Tried
to Use q Pistol.

The highlander who shot Chung All Lee
in the knee on December 9th at the corner
of Baker and Sullivan alleys has been
caught.
Yesterday morning as Policeman Gibson
was coming out Of Judge Rix's courtroom
an excited Chinaman ran up to him and said
some hghbinders were after him. Gibson
followed the Chinaman to Clay and Waverly
place. where he saw eight or ten high,
binders.
On seeing Gibson they scattered, but he
followed one up Waverly place into the
club-rooms of the Suey Sing Tong. where
the Celestial dropped splendid blued-steel
45-caliber Colts revolver on the floor.
On seeing that Gibson was alone the
Chinaman made a grab for the pistol, prob
ably to shoot the policeman. but he was not
quick enough. for Gibson laid him out with
his own revolver.
When taken to the station another China
man came in and identified the prisoner as
Wong All Duck, alias Chin Git and
wOuld-be murderer as. above mentioned.
The prisoner is a member of the On Yek
Tong.

Hawkins Again Arrested on Mrs.
D0nahue's Complaint.

Michael Hawkins once more shows his
classic features from behind the prison bars.
He has renewed his threats against the life
of Annie Donahue, widow of Peter Dona-
hue. for the attempted carrying out of which
in 1889 he was sent to jail for one year and
200 days.
The story, which was published at the
time, was to the effect that Hawkins. who Is
a cousin of Mrs. Donahue, claimed $4,000 of
the estate Of Peter Donahue, the former
owner of the San Francisco and NorthPacifc
Railway. The basis of his claim was that
he was a cousin of the widow He COM
menced his attempts to extort money from
the widow about three years ago, and on
failing to realize tried to shoot her, for
which he was jailed.
Since his release he has been seen around
town looking very much run down at the
heel, but always attempting to maintain
foppiSh aspect with the aid of waxed mus
tache, sill. tile and kid gloves. In August
he renewed his claims against the estate
and sent long threatening letter to Mrs.
Donahue, and followed 1t with others. lie
also wrote letters to her friends In regard to
the LISTERS he had sent her, informing them
of the alternative which he would have to
resort TO unless he secured the $4,000 lie
wanted from her portion of the estate
Mrs. DOnahue placed the matter in the
hands of her attorney, and complaints were
sworn to resulting in Hawkins incarcera-
ton. In view of his former conduct, it Is
not likely that Hawkins will be leniently
dealt with

twlring Itself about our law-making Institutions
and those institutions wherein these laws are
made use of have been rendered useless. Iu
other words, unfortunately for this State the
Supreme Court has decided that the San Fran
cisco Grand Jury Is an Illegal body. All its
noble work OF ferreiiDg out crime and corruption
has been turned TO naaght, and The boodler may
once more creep forth from his lair and for
while at least, inhaie the pure air of freedom 1t
has been feared all along that this would be the
