SAN Francisco, Sept 5.-Chinatown
is in a turmoil and boycott war is fierce

the murder of Chang Wal, a member of
the Sam Yup company. Mok Tai, 2
Cay See Yup man, was arrested for the
murder, but his company believed him
innocent, and asked the Sam Yups to call
off the prosecution. This they refused
to do, and the Chinese consul sided in
with the Sam Yups. Then a boycott was
declared against the Sam Yups by the
See Yups.
The Sam Yups comprise the Weather
classes of Chinese. who do a big bust
ness as butchers, while the See Yups are
composed Of the laboring classes, main
" customers of the Sam Yups. The See
Yups have started rival shops, and a
strict boycott is being waged against the
Sam Yups, greatly to their discontinue
and financial loss.
Three Of the companies have sided in
with the See Yups against the Sam Yups,
but the fourth, the Yeong Wo company,
composed of the better class of mer-
chants, hold aloof from the fray.
No matter what decision may be ar
rived at the Sam Yups are ruined, for en-
mites have been engendered that can
never be settled except by their financial
ruin
