CHINESE HARD TO CONVICT.

TFrom New Orleans Times-Democrat. ]
Just to show how hard it is to con-
Wet a Chinese accused of participation
in one of the highbinderS' wars l will
cite a single instance that came under
the notice of one of the representatives
of a great San Francisco newspaper. A
Chinese gardener named All LUX was
shot in the back by a binder while he
was sitting in the Chinese theater on
Jackson street. He was instantly kill
ed Immediately following the fatal
shot the usual movement took place
around the body, but the actors on the
stage never even SO much as hesitated
in the delivery of their lines. When the
man fell from the bench the lookout at
the main entrance of the place called
out in Chinese that the white deveils
were coming. The man who did the
shooting so far forgot himself as to
run. and the police on a hot scent saw
him and started after the fugitive. The
man ran out of the side entrance to the
auditorium and made his way to Fish
alley The police were close to him
and saw him enter a building at the
corner of the next block. The squad
hurried into. the place and captured two
well known binders. Neither of them
had a weapon, but there were powder
burns on the right hand of one of the
men, Nothing could be learned from
either of the prisoners, and they were
locked up with charge of murder
against each. of Them The next morn
ing in court the two brothers OF the
murdered man swofe that they were
with him at the time Of their brothers
death and saw the man who did the
shooting. and positively swore that
neither of the prisoners had anything
to do with the killing The accused men
were forthwith released. But that night
both of the brothers were arrested for
killing one of the men who was turned
loose by their evidence in the morning
and dangerously wounding the other.
When the wounded man recovered he
swore that neither of the brothers had
anything to do with shooting him.
Which all goes to prove that it does not
matter much what Chinese has to
swear to. and also that in his DOOR,
weak Monaghan way he does not take
q great deal of stock in the brand of
Justice dispensed by the white devils.

OPPOSES GRANT OF TIME.
Report Made on Request for Extension
Of Privilege.


W. p Richards, assistant engineer In
charge of street extensions, has reported
to the District Commissioners in regard to
the application of A. A Birney for an ex-
tension of six months time in which to re-
move the houses belonging to Mrs. Ina E.
Merrill from the line of Rhode Island
avenue extended. Mr.. Richards says:
ION May 8, 1900, Mr.. Brney, acting as
agent for Mrs. Merrill. made an offer Of $50
for the property referred to and stated that
Mrs. Merrill wished the early removal of
that part of the buildings standing over the
line of the street. On June 6. 1900, Henry
F. Getz. in behalf of Mrs. Merrill, request
ed to have the north building line of Rhode
Island avenue marked. as she had been
notified to take down the buildings and was
then ready to meet the demand. Since the
last date and up to May 1, of this year, I
nnd no correspondence bearing upon the
subject and can offer no reason for the de-
lay in the removal of the buildings.
Il do not believe the fact offered by Mr.
Birney that the owner has no plans pre-
pared should be given any weight for fur
ther delay, as there has certainly been
enough time for the preparation Of these
plans and a proper knowledge of the re-
quirements of SUCH
Attention is called to the fact that the
extension of time for six months will be
near the beginning of winter, and at a
very inopportune time for building opera
tons. l, therefore, recommend that the
time be extended to August 1, 1902, which
is in accordance with some recent extern
SONS on Sherman avenue and Columbia
road.
Attention is also invited to the fact that
although Columbia road and New Hamp-
shire avenue and Sherman avenue have
been condemned since the extension of
Rhode Island avenue, buildings are being
rapidly removed from the first named thor
oughfares''
