SING LEE LOST THE SHIRTS.
Laundryman Thus Explains Their

Laundryn,an Thus Explains Their
Absence From His establishments.
number of men called at the Sixth
precinct station this morning in the hope
of learning something about their laundry
from Sing Lee, who is locked up for spirit
ing away great quantities of shirts, cuffs,
collars, and underwear from his establish
ment recently
Sing Lee was arrested last night by De-
tective Parham on complaint of persons
who charged that he held their laundry
and would not return it. Sing was re
Gently evicted by a constable from his
place of business on G Street northwest.
Sing Lee may be shamming but he
does not appear to be an intelligent Celes-
uaI- His knowledge of EngIish--is very
limited apparently, and it is almost i'm
possible to understand anything he says.
The police have tried one after another to
learn from him why he hid the laundry
entrusted To his care but thus far he has
very nearly baffied all their efforts.
1t was the general opinion of the police
men this morning that ne wished 20 indi
cate that he had lost the shirts and also
all his money. and that he could not pay
his rent and had to give up. He also init
y
in a new neighborhood and change his
name. He explained his difficulty in talk
ing with the policemen by saying that he
was deaf and that Chinese doctor was
treating him for his trouble
It is stated that there are two factions
| Of Chinese IN the CITY who conduct laun-
dries. One is the Sing Lee Company, and
| the other Is the Quong Lee. They oppose
each other because the Sing Lee faction
| does not belong to the Laundry Union and
have cut prices below the scale. When
asked if the Quong Lee people had put
! up job on him. Sing said, yes but he
couldn't tell the name of the ChinamaE
who did it.
1t is believed that in order to strafghten
things out the police will have 10 call in
the aid of an interpreter, for all efforts TO
make Sing Lee understand have proved
futile The persons who have tickets fer
laundry will consider themselves lucky if
they recover the articles they call fer

titled and Officer Atkinson came up with
them at the Princess Street dock
Upon attempting to arrest them he was
attacked, and as a last resort drew his
revolver. while lying on the ground and
fired at Robert Posey, WIG was on his
back. The shot was fired at such close
quarters that the officers shirt was seoTch-
ed by the fame. Walter Posey kept up the
light and was shot in the right lung
The Poseys were taken tt their home.
Robert died an hour after the shooting.
He was about thirty-twe years old, and
worked on the river at times. Walter
Posey is a year or two younger than his
brother. He has given the police of AL
eXandria considerable trouble Neither

drinkers
An inquest was held this morning at
Wheatleys' funeral rooms on King Street
the Jurors having first gone to the Posey
house and viewed the body Of Robert POI

The jury returned a verdict that the de-
| ceased had been killed by pistol shot
fired by Officer Atkinson, justif1ably, when
his life was in danger and while endeavor-.
| ing to make an arrest in pursuance of his
| duty.
! Public sentiment is aroused ana Officer
| Atkinson is generally commended for his
action. He has been on the force for the
| past six years and has a record as brave
and efficient policeman.
