He Is Charged With Having Invited

There is war between the local Chi
nese factions.
The Ders and wahs are organized.
each under a vindictive head The Ders
include the merchants and the members
of the laundry union. The Wahs are the
cut-rate Cinnamon or those who would
cut rates were they not prevented by the
Ders.
Though Washington Chinese have no;
resorted to the methods of the High
binders of the Pacific slope, there is every

The Der organization is powerful. II
meets In a joss-house on Four-and-a-half
Street, and there, over "suey' bird's-nest
soup and dried fish, 1t levies assessments
on the laundrymen. 1t was this organiza-
ton that conceived the plan of establish
ing laundries and renting them to
''washee' men. The latter agree not to
make a reduction i'm prices, and are al
lowed a commission on the receipts of
the business. The grand high mogul of
the Ders is Hip Chun. who dresses neatly
in a clerical suit and wears gold-rimmed
glasses. His right-hand man is Jim Fuzzy
Moy. The latter is beyond doubt one of
the shrewdest men in the Chinese colo
ny.
Whenever Chinaman gets into trouble
1t is he who always appears as interpre-
ter. Should there be a question between
the Ders and Wahs the former finds in
him an able representative. He appeared
yesterday in Commissioner Mills office
and offered to act as interpreter against
All Sing. the man whom the Ders are
prosecuting.
The Wahs are few in this city. They
are more numerous in Baltimore where
they have a rendezvous in the Cafe La
fayette on Marion Street. Some time ago
they attempted to cut laundry prices. but

No Active Effort In Being Made t,
Captures-Funk.

NO hCtANG ~ nCAa8 ua0C ~
CapturesFunk.
The alleged murderer of William
Brooks, Frank Funk is believed to be be-
yond reach of the Washington detec-
tives.
The opinion in police circles is that Funk
made his way either to Canada or the
Klondike, and beyond range of the de-
scriptive circulars sent out by Inspector
Mattingly.
No active efforts are being made toward
the capture of the murderer.
Inspector Mattingiy is awaiting results
from his widespread circulars.
The first response vas received yester-
day. when Constable Barr, at Hyattsville,
arrested a man whom he believed to be
Funk. Detective Philips was sent to Hy-
attsville- The suspect did not answer the
description in any way.
The detectives expect to receive many
such false alarms.
Detective Phillips said this morning
that he believes Funk is far away from
Washington.

ARTHUR JONES KNOCKED OUT.
Defeated I'm the Twenty-ninth Round
by Jack Farrell.

by jack FarrcI.
Jack Farrell. of Wilmington. Del. last
night knocked out Arthur Jones. the To-
cal featherweight. in the twenty-ninth
round in one of the gamest battles that
has been fought here in years. Jones
gave away at least eight pounds in
weight, as he weighed in at 125 pounds.
Farrell sent repeated left jabs over on
Jones' face. and his tactics were almost
wholly confined to the straight left. Jones
drove home a series of half swings under
the guard and with the right, but his
game stand against the Wilmington lad
failed to overcome Farrel's fieetness Of
foot and his ability to smuggle home that
sure. straight left. which always met
Jones full in the visage.
In the twenty-ninth round Jones was
fioored twice. the last time being out for
half a minute.
