A BOYCOTT PRONOUNCED.
CHICAGO, Aug. 17.-Lun Out, Is
Chinese of this city, is in a serious
predicarnent. An order has been
promulgated throughout the city
that he must be boycotted. All
good Chinaman are ordered not TO
talk, trade or associate with him.
Lum Is laundryman, who has EN-
braced the Christian faith, and con-
verted q number of his countrymen.
He established in his laundry a
Sunday school, where meetings are
held every Sunday. The cause OF
the trouble is that certain Chinese
merchants believed Lum furnished
information To the treasury agents,
which led to the detention at Winni-
peg of several Cinnamon, who were
returning from visit home. They
were recently stopped, 1t will be re
membered, at Noche, Manitoba, and
although they had passports II was
believed that the papers were the
property of others, and that they
were trying TO break into the coun-
try for the first time. When the
news of their arrest reached Chi
cago, the colony here began to hunt
for the informer, and 1t was finally
determined Lum was the guilty
man. He had been seen conyersing
with treasury agents and also paid
visits TO the government buildings.
Despite his protestations of inno-
cence, a boycott has been pro
nounced against him and some
wanted to kill him, but the man
DARN would not hear of it. What
so greatly incensed the colony lead
ers was that the information given
the treasury agents was false,so they
say, the men arrested being bona
fide residents Of Chicago. From In
formation gathered, it Is believed
their story is right, and that the
Cinnamon will be allowed to come
to Chicago.
