city Sometimes father or mother
demands the presence Of bluecuats 10
restrain a refractory child. sometimes
20 collect a bills sometimes 10 help
move a plano not infequently to shut
on the water and often 20 settle some
trivial family dispute but the request
that came this morning from "a woman
residing at 3ii south First West Is
really about the limlt
The excited woman telephoned 20
police headquarters ana when Patrol

startled 20 hear something like the
following

meehy said.

CHUNG SINS STORY
PROVED TO Be FALSE
Shown That Chung Sin Drove With Trunk to Jersey
After the Murder Of Elsie Sgel.

Chung was not kept waiting long
before he, had another yisitor-this
time Martin Luria, the chauffeur who
drove a Chlnaman and a trunk from
the Harlem laundry to a chop suey
restaurant In Newark on the morning
Of June 10. The police had n theory
that Chung Sin might have been the
fare and not Leon Ling. But Luria
could not identify Chung Sin. and still
believes that II was Leon he had I'm
his taxicab. A letter from Chung Sin
written since his arrest TO the Society
OF the Four Brothers was intercepted
yesterday and translated to the dis.
trict attorneys Office. Il protests that
the murder was done by one man and
therefore only the murderer should
be held; denounces the authorities
and implores aid Of all members In
freeing him. q,
The police believe more and more
that little reliance can be placed In
any OF the various rewards and Offers
OF cooperation promised by the clans
OF Chinatown. and accordingly Dis
trict Attorney Jerome yesterday wrote
John Endicott Gardner. professor Of
Oriental languages OF the Pacific az
