Systematic Effort Made to Or.

City's Oriental Quarter
Wealthy Celestial From Phila-

Head of Proposed Deal


A systematic effort to organize the
gambling interests in Chinatown is be-

propose to operate a string of gam

city.
the last three days and the promoters
of the syndicate are endeavoring to
secure from the local gamblers an
initial subscription of $S5,oO0. with
which they propose to secure permis-
sion to operate their games on large
scale.
Lee Toy, known as the mayor of
Philadelphia's Chinatown, is said to be
behind the deal, having come to this
city some time ago at the suggestion
of Box Wah Gut, prominent insurance
agent in Chinatown who by reason of
being half white has gained great
prestige among the Chinese in matters

defrauding them, or whether they are

law prohibits gambling, is not known.

the point of cash being deposited. The
promoters have, however, promised
that permission to conduct the games
can be obtained if the money is forth
coming

years ago.
