SEID BACKS LITTLE SCHEME.
Portland Chinese Merchant Charged
With Levying on Chinese Immigrants.

fOrtt8nO SnInese Merchant Charged
With Levying on Chinese Immigrants.
PORTLAND, Aug. 2s.-Several Chinese of
this city accuse Seid Back, a prominent
Chinese merchant, of eXtorting money
from Chinese who arrive here from China
before they are allowed to land. In
letter to the Chinese consul in
San Francisco they assert that three
Chinese arrived here recently and were
met at the steamer by Seid Back, who
told them they could not land unless he
received a certain sum of money from
each. They further claim that the Chinese
jumped overheard and were drowned in
an endeavor to reach shore. The letter
was returned here by the consul asking
for further evidence.
Seid Back treats the matter lightly and
says that if Chinese have proper certifi-
Gates he is powerless to prevent them from
landing. He says the attack against him
Is instigated by Chinese who wish to in
jure his business.
PORTLAND, Aug. 2S.- Special. Con
cerning the case OF Said Beck, charged
with extorting money from Chinese, the
tact OF charges being made against him be-
came known on the receipt of an
order To the San Francisco consul from
China to secure witnesses, but none have
SO far shown up. SeId Back claims it ia
an intrigue on the part Of his enemies.
and is willing to undergo an investiga-
ton.
Seid Back is one of the wealthest Chi
namen on the Pacific Coast, a member of
the Chamber of Commerce here and a
stakeholder in bank. He stands high in
commercial circles, and his check for a
reasonable amount will be taken at any
bank

have been received of a parricIde which
occurred last night on Snake river, seven
teen miles from Huntington. James
Ready. jr.. u years of age. shot and killed
his father. aged a years, using VIM
chester rifle.
A coroner's inquest, held This morning,
revealed the fact that an old feud existed
between father and son. The latter bought
his fathers one-half interest in an
orchard, and upon james refusing to trade
back, deceased threatened to kill his
son. The young man ordered his father
away and forbade him to again trespass
upon his premises Ready. ST.. theif left
his wife and two small children, remain
ing away one year. Last week he wrote
to his wife, stating that he would visit
them on Saturday. He endeavored to
keep his promise, arriving about 5 O'Clock
in the evening.
James, armed with Winchester, met
his father about fifty yards from the house
where the tragedy occurred. When the
cOroner's jury arrived this morning the
deceased was lying where he fell. face
downward, and in his right hand was
tightly cenched bulldog revolver,
cooked. The handspring was broken,
which probably prevented a double trag-
edy. The son claims seif-de!ense. but the
coroner's jury failed to exonerate him.
His hearing is set for Tuesday.

TACOMA, Aug. 2S. Especial. The own
ers Of Grant Brothers patents for raising
sunken vessels expected to get chance to
test their devices on the San Pedro. When
the Merritt Wrecking Company, OF Rhode
Island, sent a man out to inspect the
wreck. the Tacoma wreckers sent ex-Coun-
Gilman Charles T. Manning to San Fran
ciso to endeavOr TO perfect arrangements
to raise the sunken collier. In the mean
time the Rhode Island wreckers decided,
through their agent, not to attempt to
raise the vessel. This was the result of a
careful examination of the wreck.
When the Merritts refused the Job the
Tacomans hoped for a chance to prove
that they could raise a vessel as large as
the San Pedro with six men in half days
time. Now that Captain WhItelaw is to

1t is said that Whitelaw has spent sec. 900
already in attempting to raise the San
Pedro and that he will probably spend
$20, 1000 more. The terms of his contract
are not known here but it is understood
he is paid a stated sum for his services
and the services Of his men outright, and
also a bonus in case he succeeds in raising
