named Ching Nun Gar, and So on an
other occasion from the keeper of o
Chinese gambling joint in Honolulu
named Lung Wo,
This payment from Lung Wo is a
separate instance, but the four pay
rtents alleged to have been made py
Ching Nun Gar carry story that will
be read with some interest by the law
abiding citizens of this community.
ChnS Nun Gar runs, or did run under
the old regime, a protected che IA
game at Aiea. 1t is alleged that Ching
Nun Gar paid to McDuffie the sum OF
So on May 7, again on May IA, yet again
OF. Nay 81, and finally again on May
2S. Now, the seventh of May was on
Saturday, and so We're the following
Gates on which payments We're made.
OF 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-
would seem to imply, rather strongly,
weekly renewed agreement of pro-
lection.
But this is not all. All on, formerly
the Chinese defective of the police de-
partment, was indicted at the same
time as McDuttie, there being three
charges against him. And the specific
instances in the allegations against All
on We're that, on March &c, April and
April he had received the sum of
SIS from the same Ching Nun Gar run
ming the same che ia game at the same
Aiea.
In other words, just before McDuf-
fe is alleged 20 have received his week.
ly stipend of So, All On had been re-
ceiving from the same source a weekly
stipend of ten dollars more per week
than McDuffie got. This leaves two
differences open in the matter, so far
as the police department was concern
ed. Either the Chinese gambler found
out that McDufie was a cheaper man
to buy what he wanted where he could
get it cheapest, or All On managed his
little fiduciary plan In such sloVenly
fashion that somebody got wise and
there was a demand for a piece" And
then Ching Nun Gar had to come
through with 500 "A week to be let
alone, instead of sl5, as he is alleged to
nave been paying heretofore. The tax
payer is at liberty to draw his own in
ference in the matter.
