A CORRECTION.

A very palpable mistake occurred
in headline of the Telegram yes
terday about a smoker to be given by
the Trades and Labor Council. The
word "take" was written by the edi-
tor and the typesetter set it up
"fake." The error was not discov-
cred until a number of the papers
were out. 1t was then corrected.
Apology is made for the mistake.

FACTIONS FIGHT
over POSITION
Lee Family Split Over the
Selection of Secretary to
Chinese Six Companies

The annual meeting of the Chinese
Six Companies for the purpose of elect
ing a secretary was held in the COM
pany's headquarters on Commercial
street on Saturday night, and was of
such a disorderly character that the
police had to raid the place and make
several arrests.
The position of secretary rotates from
family to family, and this year the
selection was to be made from the Lee
family. There are two factions in this
family, one composed of merchants and
the other of highbinders. Each faction
has a candidate for the office. Lee
Wal Do was the choice, of the mer-
chants, Lee Ling of the highbinders.
The highbinders armed themselves
with clubs. brass knuckles and pieces
of iron pipe and determined to have
their man elected by force if necessary.
When the meeting was called to order
a merchant rose and nominated Lee
Wal Do. That was the signal for an
onslaught by the highbinders. Chairs
and tables were overturned and broken
and several of the merchants were
badly beaten, and ones ribs were
broken.
Word was sent to Sergeant Cook of
the Chinatown squad and he quickly
collected his men and raided the place
When they got there heaps of Chinese
were struggling on the floor. The ap-
pearance of the police had an instant
effect in ouelling the disturbance.
Six of the highbinders were arrested
for disturbing the peace and one for
assault with deadly weapon. Four
were found in the place and the other
three were arrested later. They were
said to be the ringleaders of the high
binder faction.
