He DepOrted.

Liu Lung. a Chinaman living in Omaha
for several years, claiming a right to re-
main here under the laws giving that
right to the privileged class OF Cinnamon,
will not have to go back to China at
present, Notwithstanding an order issued
to that effect by United States Commits
sioner Anderson in January. Such at
least is the decision arrived at by Judge
Munger in the United States district court
Tuesday morning, to which court The case
had been appealed by Llu Longs attor-
neys
The grounds upon which Judge Ander-
son directed Liu Lungs deportation In
January were that he was employed as a
laborer and did not come under the privi-
legged class clause Of the Chinese exclusion
laws. Liu Lung claimed 10 be a student
and has become thoroughly Americanized,
having studied at the Omaha Commercial
college, and has for several years been
a regular attendant at several of the
Christian Sunday schools OF Omaha Sew
eral of his instructors appeared TO testify
in his behalf. 1t appears that for a
while Liu Lung, who is about IS years
of age, did work for time in laundry
and in a restaurant, when he first came
TO Omaha, but for some time he has de-
voted himself to study and other less
lsborious pursuits.
Only Monday II was finally decreed that
Leo Lung, another Celestial, should re-
turn to his native land.
