ANOTHER TRIAL IN PROSPECT.
Moy Chink's Effort to Collect an Al
legged Debt.

Moy Sen You, the Chinaman who was
sued a few days ago by Moy Chink, and
whose case was not decided for the reason
that the latter's counsel took non-suit,
published in Thursdays Star, is again to
appear as defendant This time the case
will be heard before c. S. Bundy, justice
of the peace, unless Moy Sen Yous counsel
should take a change of venue. Such ac-
ton will take the case before Justice of the
Peace O'Neill, before whom the original
suit was entered. Had MOy Sen You been
found by the constable Friday his fate
might have been decided, but he was not
seen by the man with the writ. and just
when the case will be heard is not known.
The writ was made returnabe today at
8: 80 o'clock, in the Justices office, but if
the Chinaman is not found meanwhile an
other postponement will be necessary Moy
Chink is determined to get his $3.50. alleged
to be borrowed money, and he Will keep on
the lockout for Moy Sen You until the lat
ter is found. When the writ was placed In
the hands of the constable the latter ad-
mitted that all Cinnamon looked something
alike to him, and without assistance he
hardly expected TO discover the celestial to
notify him that his presence in the magis-
trates court was desired. Moy Chink
agreed TO accompany him and trip was
made through Chinatown" They failed to
catch up with Moy Sen You. however, and
then the pair started off in other directions
and visited laundries. Scores of celestials
were found but Moy Sen You not one
of them. Three dozen places were visited
Thursday night. Friday Constable Cal
lahan called on twenty-elght laundries, but
returned empty handed. Moy Chnk was a
very much Disguised Chinaman when he
returned, but his counsel still mad hopes.
1t is stated that Moy Sen You disposed Of
laundry several days ago, and that the
money was attached when the suit was
first brought. This money, it is stated, was
turned over 10 the man who is mentioned
as defendant in the suit, and in the event
OF Moy Chink's getting a decision in his
favor it is said he will have some trouble
to get the money
As last resort Attorneys Clarke
and Mattingly suggested that perhaps
Mr.. Shnlington, who is counsel for Moy
Sen You. might give some desired in
formation. as his client might really desire
q trial and settlement of the case. The
constable then called on Attorney Shilling
ton and he accepted service of the writ
Should the defendant sanction his counsels
action the case will be called this after
noon.
