o. course Ching Nun Gar was not in
tile business of gambling for his health,
and neither could he be assumed to be
making these alleged payments to a
police official because of love and af-

lection.
But this is not all. All On, formerly
the Chinese detective of the police de-
partment. was indicted at the same
time as McDuffie, there being three
charges against him And the specific
instances in the allegations against All

then Ching Nun Gar had to come |
through with $50 a week to be let |
