CHINAMAN
VI MURDERED.

Lancaster, Pa, April "A horri-
BILE crime that has resulted in murder
was unearthed here this morning,
when Loi Hugh. Chinese laundry
man, was found uncon scious in his
shop on South Queen Street. There
were evidences OF desperate struggle,
the three rooms In his meagre apart
ments, inhabited only by himself, be-
ing spattered with blood, Loi was
stretched on his cot with two gashes
in his head, inflicted by brick that
was found in the room The motive
for the crime was robbery, as the
money drawer was broken open and
its contents are missing.
1t is believed that the Chinaman
lay helpless on his cot all yesterday
and last night. Customers were un-
able to gain admittance since late
Monday pight, when the laundry man
was last seen. Late this morning
two boys, Charles Weber and Charles
Beck, peered through the glass panels
of the front door and saw blood spots
on the floor. Thev summoned Frank
X. Nondees NTH, a merchant of this
city, who is great friend of all the
local Cinnamon, and can speak their
language.
Entering a rear door they found
Loi in pool of blood on his cot. He
was in dying condition and unable
to speak, but in one hand was a note
that may furnish an important clue
to the perpetrators Of the crime, who
are still at large. 1t was adressed to
Sam Hing, another Chinaman, by
whom Loi was employed, and read as
follows:
Please give Nan one dol.
lar. | will pay you back Monday"
The note was signed with the ini-
tial "B."
No doors nor windows about the
premises were broken open and it is
surmised that the Oriental's assai-
ants were his supposed friends and
were visiting him when the assault
was committed. They secured but
small sum of money, 4 larger amount
being hidden in his sleeping room.
At the hospital it was found that
llngh's skull was fractured and the
operation of trepanning was perform.
ed. Hugh fingered until o'clock
this evening, when he died without
reganing consciousness or being able
to shed any light on the mystery.
The dead man was about 30 years
old and he came here four years ago
from Philadelphia to engage in the
laundry business Sam Hugh, a
brother in law, and several unclcs re-
side in Philadelphia and will take
charge Of the remains.
The crime has aroused deep feeling
in this community and vigorous steps
will be taken to bring the guilty to
justice.
