SHE'S A HALF-CASTE CLEOPATRA
Gut Yew, the Girl Who Has
Stirred Up the Chinese.
She Is Likely to Figure in a High
binder War.
Wo Chung Gets Out of Prison, bat the
Con- Has Not Commenced
Yet-Only q Matter of
Fsw Days.

The preparations for wa1 between the
! highbinder societies in Chinatown is
still on, but the expected outbreak has
not yet occurred. This may in a meas
ure be due to the fact the police are
"shaking down" suspicious looking pa
gans, and since Friday last several high
binders have been stripped Of their
weapons and fined.
The cause of the present trouble, as
stated in the HERALD Of yesterday. was
the arrival here of Wo Chung. hatchet
man from San Francisco. who has ac-
counts to settle with some enemies. 1t
was sought to defer the day OF reckoning
by having Chung arrested and fined for
carrying concealed weapons. This was
done, Chinese quietly informing po.
liceman that Chung was out cunning
for his enemies. 1t was then arranged
that none OF the local Chinese should put
up for Chung, and he passed two days
in Jail. A telegram to San Francisco
brought the needed funds and Chung
was released yesterday morning. 1t
was expected that the pistols would
pop Immediately, but Wo Chung con-
tented himself with joining his pretty
female companion, Gut Yew, and taking
up quarters in private residence occu-
pied by Chinese on Seventh street.
During his temporary incarceration in
the city Jail Wo Chung was most solici-
tous as to the safety OF Gut Yew, he
fearing that his enemies would abduct
her. He had reason to fear, too, for if
,what Chinese detective says be true
arrangements had been made by men,
bsrs OF the Bing Tong society to kidnap
Gut Yew last night, and Chung'H release
from Jail was most timely.
The girl, who is very prepossessing. is
a half caste, her mother being Chinese
and her father q Japanese. She was
born in Portland, Ore, about IS years
ago and the possession OF her has been
the cause OF several Chinese murders.
Three years ago she WAS kidnapped from
Portland at the instance of SaCra.
mento highbinder. Close pursuit was
given the abductors and the runaways
were overtaken. O fight ensuing in
which one of the Chinese in the pursu.
ing party was shot and killed. The ab.
ductors got away with the girl and che
was concealed in Sacramento for a long
time, being finally stolen again and
taken to San Francisco. There she
was the bone of contention be-
tween two highbinder gangs and
in one fight over her possession one man
was shot in the arm. Just where Wo
Chung got the girl is not known, but she
seems contented with him.
Two of Wo Chung's enemies will for.
felt bail and revolvers in the police
court this morning or answer charges
of carrying concealed weapons.

other parties secured by the assignment,
there was filed through Frank q LARA
bee the notification of death and PROOF
of claim Mr.. Murdoch has maintained
throughout that in case the insurance
company should refuse to pay, he would
use every means afforded by the law TO
secure payment.
Although the insurance companies have
maintained silence about the re-
suits of the autopsy, it is believed
that the substance of the report has
leaked out. From quarters that have
some facilities for knowing, the report
comes that a certain small amount or
trace of poison was found in the stom-
ach. 1t is even said more definitely that
this poison was strychnia. In case this
should be the report, there would be
nothing surprising in it. Mr.. Wood
bury's family physician found his pa
tient suffering from a weak heart, and
as tonic administered for a considera-
BILE number of days in succession suita-
BILE quantities of strychnia. He also adj
ministered digitalis to stimulate more
particularly the action of the heart. This
fact would give perfectly innocent ex-
PLANTATION of the presence of the small
quantities of poison, which it is ru-
mored were found.
There is considerable criticism of the
action of the insurance companies in
this matter. Of course their agents and
representatives here can do only as di-
rected by the home Offices. But it is
felt that inasmuch as the effect OF the
autopsy performed at the instance of the
insurance companies and made public
with the consent of their represen tatives
was to strengthen, if not create, a
suspicion that death was not from
natural causes, it is only just and fair
that the result of the chemical and
microscopical examination should be
made known also.
