Some OF Them, too, We're Cinnamon with

man who Shot Private Henry. Wong Gett,

The case was replete with amusing in

We're frequent The first difficulty arose
when All Sing was called To the stand,
over the interpreter. Mr.. Smith wanted
10 have Mrs Collins as an Interpreter, but
MT Mullowney insisted that Wong Gctt
should be selected. He said that Wong Gett
had a letter from Recorder Goff OF New
York, declaring him TO be fair and un-
biased interpreter. Judge Miller said that
the government had a right to choose its
own interpreter, SO Wong Gett was selected
Mrs. Collins was allowed to see that Wong
Gett interpreted properly.
All SINGS STORY.
Moy All Sing was the first witness
called He Amped through the court
room 10 the slaGd, ana exhibited d 5nle
in his trousers made by the bullet. He
said that as lie bad a vile and child to sup
port he was compelled to reduce the price
of laundry work in order to make enough
/ 20 keep thcn. Wien the laundry union
/ found out that tuis had been done they
notified him that If he didn't raise the
price they would make it warm for him
Then they arranged, he said, TO XIII
him, and hoy F. Chew was selected to do
the deed ABOUT O'Clock on The night
of the Fourth he was standing in front
of his laundry, on the corner OF Four-and-
G-Ialf street ard Missouri avenue, when
man, whom he sWears was Aoy T. Chew,
ran up on the other side OF the street and
q fired across at him. The bullet struck
| him IN the leg ana Chew ran off through
tle park
Nj Il NJ. Sterling, a partner OF Law
I yer AI-hiubau-h, took the stand and tes-
+ titled to the good character OF hls partners
4 clients
/ Dr. smith, OF the Emergency Hospital,
. explained rAe nature and extent OF An

and stated that he was satisfied it was
. not self-mnicted.
! Lawyer Aughinhaugh testified as TO
i what All Sing had told him OF the affair
Annie BROOKS. The young colored girl
4 Who works in the laundry. was called to
4 the stand, and created some surprise by
+ tcstfyiug that she saw Sue Cow shoot An
1 sing. She grew confused on the stand,
I however, and her testimony was not very
weigbty.
SINGS WIFE WORRIED.
Mary Crown and Miranda Shaw, colored
women, employed by the laundrynan,
/ testified that Sings wife was very much
/ worried after the affair. and stated to
them that Sue Cow had shot her husband.
4 witness for the defense testified that
when the shooting took place Moy F.
/ Chew was standing in front OF Quong
Song Lung 5 place, and that he had been
/ thc!e over an hour when arrested.
When Charley Ton Sing was testifying
I Law yer Smith kept scanning his features
very closely, and at last Charley blurted
out with Oriental emphasis:
What for you lookee at me? l no owe
you any money"
Judge Miller commented on the case at
4 some length when the testimony was all
in. He said the remarkable spectacle of
a man shot down at his own door at 8
1 O'Clock at night, without anyone hearing
4 the report, was presented. Ii certainly
| showed, he sad, that dangerous Grim
inal conspiracy exists on one side or the
other. and it should be probed TO the
bottom. He said that he hoped to have
been able 10 unTaYel the mystery that
surrounded the shooting, but he was com
PEELED 10 confess that lie had not. He
thought that toying with the matter would
only make il worse and be decided that
the grand jury should Investigate it.
Moy F. Chew was therefore held in
81 600 bonds to await the action Of
that body. c. b. Smith, Lawyer Smith s
4 father, became his surety, and he was
released.
Lawyer Smith then asked that All Sing
and Sue Cow be held forcriminal conspiracy,
but the court decided that there Were no
charges against them and they were not
held.
WANTED THEM HELD.
LawyerCaroll Smith next appeared before
District Attorney Birney and asked that
Ah Sing and Sue Cow be held under bonds to
appear before the grand jury.
M Smith gave as the reason for his
unusual request that he was anxious to
have the facts in the Intricate case brought
Out and he feared he witnesses would skip.
Mr.. Birney pointed out the righteousness, to
his mind, OF the government bonding the
witnesses it had chosen itself and on which
| it expected TO make its case, and refused
MT. Smith bis request. The case will
doubtless be presented 10 the grand jury

headquarters at the corner OF Four-and-a
half street and Missouri avenue There
are six other prominent members of the
gang, who are. Chin Bng, All Sing, Sue
Cow Sing Lee, and Luin Key Sing.
Mr. Birney has in his possession testi

by the band, The information was

Mrs. Collins went to China when fou,
years of age and has spent twenty y-seveI
