LEASER ON THE

had been found on the Herring,

number of local mining men were
attracted to the scene The work
only started yesterday morning and
before long large piece of float
was uncovered 1t is thought that
the existence of the float has been
known for some time and it has
even been rumored that assays
taken went $114.70 to the ton, of
which $66 was in gold. 1t is i'm

Bow Cheung, as he has been identi-

sists upon being named, the Ameri-

killed his vice consul, DR.. LUX Wing,
Monday, was arraigned before the
coroner today and committed to the
Toombs to await the result of the
inquest to be held tomorrow.
He slept soundly and ate well, but
he seems depressed and refuses to
answer questions
What scanty information the po-
lice can gather about him is wholly
in his discredit. The average China
man is Industrious, but Woung had
the reputation in Chinatown of be-
ing a hard drinker, an unsteady
worker and chronically in want of
cash.
Wingshiue s. Ho, the Chinese con-
sui here, cannot believe that DR..
LUX Wing, whom he knew as the
most gentle and painstalzing of
aides, ever treated the prisoner
harshly or did anything to excuse
the attack.

The cigarette market assumed a

The price varied and was as un-

there was shortage in popular
