NO HOPE OF PEACE.
Sacramento Is Still Stirred Up Over the Eigf
binder War

Sacramento Is Still Stirred Up Over the High
binder War
SACRAMENTO, July 5-There is no hope
of peace in the ranks of the fighting Chi
nese factions. The Bang Kong Tong gang,
who are intrenched in an M-street wash
house, declare that they are living in dread
of the Chez Kong Tong. They expected an
attack yesterday and saw three fighting
heather lingering abou: the place during
the day. To prevent an attack without
warning the Bang Kong Tong employed
Harry ketchum to guard the premises.
Keichum has been on watch with a shotgun
for two days.
CHIEF Rodgers, in view of recent develop
ments. is getting to believe that there is
little or no choice between the rival socie-
ties. 1t has been supposed that the Bang
Kong Tong included about all the highbind-
ers In town, while the Chez Kong Tong
embraced the merchants and other Mon
golians of means. If such be the fact the
merchants seem to be travelling in bad COM
pany.
One of the Bang Kong Tong said to-day
that the enemies of his organization had a
deep laid scheme on foot to DESTROY the
society. The principal witness against the
murderer of Lee Gong Is his widow All
Wah. Although she is swearing stoutly in
favor of the Chez Kong Tong it is now
claimed that the latter propose to murder
her and put the blame on the Bang Kong
Tong in the hope that popular indignation
may be so aroused that not member of the
organization would be permitted to live in
town. So far Ah Wah has shown herself
to be, unlike most Chinese. possessed of the
ordinary human emotions, and her grief
over Lee Gong's sudden taking off is fairly
pitiful. Her demeanor has excited great
sympathy for her and her murder at this
TIME would recoll upon her slayers, and they
know il.
All Tie. the forger. who has been stand
ing IN with the Chez Kung Tong has gone
over to the opposition. bnt they are afraid
OF him and refuse TO let him into their
secrets.
