the Chinese with the light trousers.
They were all placed under arrest and
locked up in the tanks" George
Downey, a watchman, found a hat with
bullet holes in it at Washington street
and Spofford alley.
Further investigation showed that
the Chinese with the white trousers
was the man shot at and that the
shooter was seen to disappear through
Church alley. About IL o'clock a fight
started in a gambling club between
Hop Sing and Suey Sing men and one
of the Hop Sings pulled off the queue
of Suey Sing man. 1t is supposed
that to ayenge this insult Suey Sing
man fired the shot at the man with the
white trousers, who belongs to the Hop
Sing tong, and that the end is not yet.
The seven Chinese were photographed
and released from custody.
The Hop Sings and Suey Sings met
last night at the headquarters of the
See Yup Society. The meeting was
ordered by the officials of the society
in an endeavor to settle the difficulty
between the rival highbinder organ

stormy one. The Suey Sings were
| willing to settle the matter and let
the trouble drop, but the Hop Sings
the most notorious of the highbinder
tongs, fatty refused to accede to any
such an agreement.

AS a bad omen that a bloody war
is pending, not a single man from
either of the tongs was on the streets
last night. The police take this as
silent warning that shooting will soon
begin.
