nsss cook, whose onse on sppeai from an or.
der OF deportation, came up In the United
etstss court yesterday afternoop. They
we're not avsilsbls Tor evidences, however.
II turned out, and Ying vas ordered di,.
charged from custody.
ying vas unfortunate enough . fes
weeks ago to be in . wash house st Utss-
Isdy ct night, when Chinese Inspector
Walker. who had received warning sha4
strange Chinese we're in town, dropped In
aad hauled the ereensss looking washer
man before 4 Z nited states commissioner.
Y ing was about to leave on the steamer
for 6sattie. He did nos tell Q very straight
story. The inspector testified that he told
him that he had been back 70 China
within two years. but had been In the
country eight. lie said THAN good I'm.
eish, the inspector said. but the latter was
not able 70 repeat the exact words. and
got badly confused when he Was cross-ex-
ahmed by the Chinaman's attorney. Al
though, he recovered sufficiently 20 inform
Chinese Inspector Schuyler. who wac in
the room, that Wing was pmugRisr Of
opium.as we'll ~ contrsbsnd.
Ying told q pretty story. In answer to
defily leading questions from his At
torney, he said he came from China thir-
teen years ago and worked in San Fran
cisco, Port Townsend. La Conner and
Il ,dt hnt> -.
years ago. he sailed from Port Townsend
on lumber ship for Hongkonk. He did
not come back on the same ship. The
voyage lasted fif,y-four DAYS, but he said
that the speed of the vessel was not the
reason. He remained In Hongkong three
days aad then sailed for the United States
on q steamer. He seemed little ratified
when he was asked Why he came home %
quickly, but mumbled out some answer.
lie proved by several former white en-
ployers that he was in the United States
IN 1885. but did not prove his whereabouts
within the last two years. He said. on
being recalled. that the inspector had not
understood him about his visit TO China,
and got the six years changed to tso.
Here mysterious package was laid on
tie desk in front OF District Attorney
Brinker. From il came the shoes. They
had been found on the beach st UtsaIady
the night Wing was captured. The in
spector said Wings name was In them.
An interpreter said the name Was "Me All
How The attorney for Ying did not
object then to the evidences. but the shoes
had lost their interest TO the district at
torney.
Another Chinese who escaped dcporta-
ton was All Yuen, captured short time
ago at La Conner, also by Inspector
Walker. This time the tip had been re-
ceived from another Chinaman, who said
2 that Yuen was just over from Victoria
and had no right TO remain. Inspector
Walker was again the main witness for
the United States. He based his testi-
mony mainly on the fact that no white
people at La Conner knew Yusn nor any
OF the Chinese. except the wash house
keeper, who knew too much. He knew,
or pretended to have known. Yuen in
China ages and ages ago; IL might really
have been inferred from the inspectors
account Of the wash house mans story
that the latter and Yuen were fellow.
laborers on tho great wall Of China few
centuries ago. The "washce' man, in
deed, had claimed to have been Intimately
acquainted with Yuen's great-grsat-grand-
father. Yuen 10 80 years old. Judge
Hanford was not satisfied with the proof
but let the Monxol go.
Ny Hang also escaped deportation. His
registration certificate came 70 him after
he was ordered exported. il having been
delayed. DR.. g. v. Calhoun. of Ia Con.
ner, testified that Hang was his cook four
years ago, and other witnesses knew him
in other Sound towns. He had been in
the United States thirteen years. His az
rest wns made on information Of China
man who had been whipped by him In q
fight over game OF "tan. who informed
Inspector Walker that Hang was green. -
Charlie KEGS case was not decided. He
was ordered deported by United States
Commissioner Emery because he went
back TO China without asking permission
and got married. On his return he was
arrested. He proved yesterday that he
was admitted on his return from China on
merchants certificate obtained before he
left. and proved that he Was merchant
then by Capt. L. b. Hastings. Of Port
Townsend. When he had come back he
registered a. . laborer. The United States
customs officers think this 10 against him
and will try to break down his story on
Monday when his case IL taken up again.
