TOURNEY DRAWS
TENNIS EXPERTS
Twenty Three Players OF
Class Take Part Today
in Championship.
Murdock and Foley to
Meet in the Pre-
lininary.

The second championship tennis tour
nAnlent of the year and the first event
since the fire will commence today on
the California Club courts. 1t is the sixth
annual scratch singles for the champion
ship of San Francisco. The title is held
by Carl Gardner
Twenty-three names were drawn yes
terday afternoon. A majority OF the
cracks drew in the lower half, but sew
eral high class players are in the upper
nalf and the closing rounds should prove
interesting
Few of the best players will come to-
gether in the preliminary round. The
best match this morning and one of the
best in the tournament will be that be-
tween Percy Murdock and Charles Foley.
When they met last in the finals of the
bay counties championship tournament
Foley won three sets out of four. Muir
dock can do better than he did on that
occasion and the match this morning
should prove close and interesting.
The other six preliminary round
matches will probably be more or less
one-sided. Ray Cornell and George Busch
will meet in the first match of the day.
The Northwestern champion is picked to
win. but Cornell will be likely to make
1t interesting for him.
should furnish good match, as will
Tracy Crawford and Herbert Schmidt.
Herbert Long is almost certain to
reach the semi-finals. His first match
is with c. s. Gayness and his second with
DIR. Bush.
The other semi-final place in the top
half looks to lie between Busch. Schmidt
and Rolfe. There will be a hard fight
for the semi-final positions in the lower
half. In the upper quarter are Murdock
Foley, Gabriel Griffin and Melville Long
The last two named will come together
In the first round and good match will
result.
In the bottom quarter Drummond Mac
Gavin and George James will fight it out
/ They will surely meet in the second
round James is the present coast cham
pion and won his title from MacGavin
by default
Play will commence promptly at Il
O'Clock. No admission will be charged
and the general public is invited to at
tend. The drawings follow:

JUNG COON RESORTS TO OLD
WAY OF RECOVERING CHATTEI
San Jose Chinaman Swears to Lar
ceny Complaint Against Pretty
Slave Who Escaped Him.

OAKLAND, May 26.-Fong Shee. a
pretty young Chinese girl about seven
teen years old. made stout stand
against arrest by the peace officers OF
the county this afternoon, declaring
that the charge of petty larceny pre-
ferred against her by jung Coon. a
Chinese of San Jose, is nothing more
than part of a conspiracy to put her
back into loathsome slavery, from
which she has just revolted-
Fong Shee's story reveals an amaz-
ing audacity on the part of the Chi
nese in San Jose who has made accu-
sation against her if the girls state
ment is to be accepted as truth She
has been in America but little time,
and during that time has been, she
swears,Na slave to the Vaccinations of
Jung Coon. He has forced her into a
life which she found so repugnant that
to avoid it she fed the city where Jung
had kept her in close custody. Her
presence in Oakland apparently be-
came known to Jung, and he promptly
swore to a complaint charging her
have taken with her when she left
Jung Goons house property not her
own.
The little Chinese girl cried pitifully
at the Sixteenth street station when
told by the police officials here that no
other course was open TO them but
that of sending her back to San Jose
for trial She was taken before the
court and held in bonds of $500.
The case against her will be tried
at San Jose. The officers of the law
informed her that if she is indeed in
nocent of the charge made by jung
Coon and has been held in slavery by
him the charitable folk of San Jose,
who have before this interested them
selves in similar cases, may procure
her freedom and defeat the alleged
vile purpose of Jung Coon.
