CHINESE sMUGGLED IN.
Detectives Arrest Two Cinnamon in
Railroad Station at jersey City.

NEW YORK. Dec. 6-Detectives of
the Jersey City police department have
arrested two Cinnamon in the Pennsyl-
vania railway station in Jersey City
for the alleged violation of the Chinese
exclusion law.
The prisoners, who said. they were
Ching Tung and Yin wah, were pas
sengers on the Lehigh Valley express
train from Buffalo. They had berths
in the Pullman sleeping car. They
were taken before United States Com
missioner Romaine and were held to
await examination. 1t is alleged that
they were smuggled across the border
and were to be taken to place in
New York where Chinese immigrants
are received and obtain employment.
Chief of the Jersey Police Murphy
received Information that Cinnamon
were being smuggled into New York
by the wholesale as many as ten a
day sometimes arriving over the Le-
high Valley road. The Pennsylvania
railroad station was watched and it
was noticed that each morning China
men arrived from Buffalo there would
be Chinaman in the station. He would
make an almost imperceptible sign and
the new arrivals would follow him to
New York. The New York Chinaman
would hold no conversation with the
others.
The arrests just made are the re-
suit of these Investigations. The pris-
oners had their clothes covered with
mud which the police believe confirms
the theory that they were smuggled
across the boundary in boats.
