WONG FONG UNDER
ARREST FOR MURDER
SAID TO BE THE VICTIM OF A
PLOT.
Charged With the Crime for Which
Ong Foon Is on Trial at
Santa Rosa.

Lieutenant Price and a Constable from
Santa Rosa arrested a Chinaman named
Wong Fong on suspicion of the murder
of a Chinaman in Santa Rosa several
years ago. 1t is believed that the ar
rest is move on the part of the friends
of Ong Foon, who is now being tried for
the same murder, to implicate another
and thereby lessen the chances for con-
viction of Ong Foon.
The English Educational Society, of
which Ong Foon is a member, has been
very active in his defense, and the bitter
ness existing between this organization
and the slave owners, who are supposed
to be behind the prosecution, has caused
the friends of Ong FoOn to do everything
in their power to secure his acquittai.
Ong Foon was arrested some months
ago at the instigation of Wong Sam, a
slave owner, who charged him with at
tempting TO eXtort money from one of
the slave girls. Ong Foon was acquitted
on this charge and the Cinnamon inter-
ested in prosecuting him claimed that the
case had been fixed The old charge
of murder which had been hanging over
Ong Foon's head was brought up again,
and as he stepped from the courtroom
after being acquitted of the charge of at
tempted extortion he was arrested for
murder.
1t is asserted that the prosecution has
a clear case against Ong Foon. He has
been positively identified as the murderer
by both Chinese and white witnesses.
When the case first came up the defense
sought to prove an alibi, but later

CRIME is PREVENTED
BY A PLUCKY WOMAN
WILLIAM BRONSON ASSAULTED
ON MISSION STREET.
One of His Assailants Is Under Ar
rest-A Bottle of Knockout
Drops as Evidence.

A bold attempt at robbery was made
on Mission street, between Third and
Fourth. last night, by two men. One of
sthem Frank O'Rourke, is now under ar
arrest. The other managed to get away.
The two men were first noticed in
Mission-street saloon with William Bron-
son. Bronson was very much under the
influence of liquor and was treating
freely. The three men left the saloon to-
gether, and a woman who was passing
at the time heard one of them say: This
fellow has got money; Wen do him" The
words alarmed her and she watched the
trio. They had proceeded but a short dis
tance when one of them struck Bronson
and knocked him down
The woman Immediately ran down to
Third street, where she found Police Off
Ger f. Callahan and told him what was
going on He hurried to the scene and
found that one of the men was trying to
force the contents of vial down Bron-
sons throat His companion gave the
alarm when he saw the officer APPROACH
ing and took to his heels. O'Rourke was
captured and locked up in the City Prison
charged with attempted robbery.
The contents of the vial will be analyZed

PLACE OF UTTER DARKNESS.
San Bruno Road Residents Anxious
to Have Electric Lights.

There is a section of this city where
neither gas nor electric lights shine. This
is on the San Bruno road and the cross
streets and avenues leading therefrom to
Mission street. A similar condition of af-
fairs can be found on the Ingleside road
from Mission street west to the ocean:
The residents of the San Bruno road
complain of this municipal neglect and
Indifference. They say that since the
electric cars have been running out to
the F'iveMile House travel has increased
sufficiently to justify the Supervisors in
having lights extended as far as the cars
go. Both the San Bruno road and the
Mission street property owners and resi-
dents have Joined in a request to have
electric lights placed on Silver avenue.
From present indications the San Bruno
road is destined to become favorite sec
ton of the city for homes for mechanics
and Industrious laboring men. But the
people want artificial lights before they
commence to build homes.
The want of electric lights on the In
gleside road is equally felt by the people
residing in the southwest section OF the
Mission.

EVANGELIST MOODY
SPEAKS AT OAKLAND
STIRRING ADDRESSES AT THE
UNION REVIVAL.
Big Audiences Gather to Hear the
Words of Wisdom Fall From
His Lips.

OAKLAND, March 16.-Every niche of
the First Presbyterian Church was oc-
cupled tonight in attestation of the fact
that Dwight L. Moody has lost none Of
his popularity or forcefulness as an
evangelist.
The choir and platform were occupied
by ministers of all denominations from
the bay cities, as the revival is union
movement Of all the churches. The evan
gelist has not been in California for ten
years, but he retains his power of con-
viction. and is more ready than ever TO
draw from his apparently endless fund Of
anecdotes. The revival opened this after
noon at the First NJ. e. Church, and al
though stormy weather prevailed the
large church was packed.
Mr.. Moody delivered powerful addresses
both afternoon and evening, and inter
iected so much wit into them that his
audience was laughing every few min
utes His tact in turning the cause of the
outburst of mirth into pointed trulsm Is
marvellous and a powerful factor in re-
tanning his spell over his vast congrega-
tions He made many kindly references
to newspaper men,, and apparently he
does not consider they are any more in
need of salvation than the average
referring to the Philippine question Mr..
my view of the Philippine situation
may be given in nutshell: We have got 60

changed to self-defense. The prosecution
claims that this is a sign of weakness and
further assert that money was offered TO
square the case Besides the murder
charge pending against Ong Foon in
Santa Rosa, 1t is said that he is also un,
der Indictment for q murder committed
in Sacramento the same year. a money
settlement was made in this case, and
Ong Foon agreed to leave Sacramento
and not return. He went back once and
barely escaped with his life. Several wit
nesses from Sacramento who are familiar
with the latter case have been subpenaed
to testify against Ong Foon in the case on
trial at Santa Rosa.
Wong Fong denies that he was ever In
Santa Rosa and that he knows anything
of the murder of which he is accused.
He bears a good reputation with the
police, and the latter are of the beief that
his arrest is the result of an effort to aid
Ong FOon.

1t is just possible that the solid six may
not have the satisfaction of fixing a
water rate for this city for the next fis-
cal year This important duty may fall
to the new Council. When that body
meets next Monday night it must take up
first of all the election returns and
canvass them, nor can any other buSi-
ness be taken up until this task be fin
ished, although the Council can adjourn
from time to time as convenience may re-
Quire.
1t will take all of one session to per-
form this task, and although the water
ordinance will have been published the
necessary length Of time 1t is not likely
that 1t will come up for final passage on
Monday night. After the election returns
are canvassed the Councilmen-elect can
at once take the oath of office before the
City Clerk, and there is a doubt as TO
whether they cannot at once demand
their seats 1t is said that the interpre-
tation OF the charter does not prevent

ing OF the Council on Monday, March a.
the old Council, should 1t desire, can take
up the water ordinance, sbut should the

A FEEBLE-MINDED WAIF.
Judge Lawlor Will See That She Is
Well Cared For.

An application was made yesterday to
Judge Lawlor to send Sonora Silvia, a
simple-minded child of years, to the
Home for the Predetermined at Glen
Ellen. 1T appears that the child's parents
deserted her some time ago, and when an
attempt was made to get her into the in
stitution referred to an answer came back
that it was overcrowded. Judge 1awlor
will sign commitment and says that he
will see that the child is admitted, crowd
or no crowd.
