A HEATHEN CHINEE.
he Is the Terror of Chinatown and
a Slick Sinner.


NEW YORK, Dec. 1S.-The police
OF Newark have in custody
Lem Tong Sin, alias Charley Tong
Sin, who, the New York police say,
is one OF the most notorious cut
throats ever known in Chinatown
or the slums of San Francisco. Act
ing Capt. Young, Of the Seventh
precinct, New York, has informa-
ton from Lem Tong Sins country
men living in Mott street that the
prisoner is responsible for four or
five murders that have been insti-
gated by the Highbinders societies
in the United States. Capt. Young's
men woald arrest Sin if he should
come within their jurisdiction, for
he is wanted by them on charges
OF assault and battery and gam
bling. Lem Tong Sin is remark
able man in many ways. When he
first appeared in Chinatown, early
in the present year, his country
men OF the clique opposed to the
Highbinders at No. 81 Chatham
Square, promptly became terror
stricken and some Of them asked
the protection Of the police. Char
lev Sin Is the name he is best
known by. About the fourth week
OF his residence in New York city
he obtained a great deal OF notorie-
ty by making an application for a
position as special detective in
Chinatown. He said that gam.
bling was going on constantly at a
score of places and that the regu'
lar police were not able to suppress
it. To support his claim for the
special detective job Charley pro-
duced letters from Lieut.. Melville,
Of the United States navy, which
purport to show that he was on
the steamship Jeanette in the
Arctic region. He had two medals
one presented by congress to sur
vivors of the Jeanette expedition
and one presented by the navy de-
partment.
Gun Yick Nam became the OBJ
| ject of attack on the part of the
Highbiuders and a price of 81 ,O0C
was said to be the reward for his
death. GUN Yick Nam had been
in San Francisco when Sin came
there and he gave Young the story
OF Charley's crimes. Nam says
Charley killed a man and got his
papers and has since that time
passed himself as the original
owner of the papers. Capt. Young
says that Nam is truthful and hon
est in every way and that Sin will
be prosecuted to the full extent Of
