TEMPORARY TRUCE
MAY Be ABANDONED
Arrest of On Yick Tong Man
for kidnapping Leads to
Complications
Charges of Murder Against Two
Members of Yee Family
Dismissed in Oakland

That the recent Chinese tong war
between the On .Yicks' and the Yee
family has not yet died out and that
deep seated animosity still prevails be
tween the warning factions was dem
onstrated yesterday when Gin Chong,
an On YiclS, was arrested on a charge
of kidnapping, sworn to by Yee Juan
a prominent member of the zee Iamlly.
The arrest, which occurred in oak
land, followed the dismissal OF muir
der charges against Yee Yock Joe ana
Yee Bow Sue, against whom Gin Chons
appeared as a witness In the justice
court of Justice Quinn in Oakland
Gin Chong is charged with having kid
mapped zee Bow Sue in San francisco.
December and taken him to Oakland
against his will and without legal war
rant.
Gin Chong was arrested as he was
leaving Justice Quinn's courtroom ana
was brought to this city. The warrant
was issued on the request of Attor-
neys 7. l. Fitzpatrick, John J. Greeley
and William Hoff Cook, representing
Yee Bow Sue and Yee 9uan, who swore
to the warrant. Thdmarrant was is
sued by Police Judge Conlan of this
city December H.
1t is charged by the attorneys for
the Yees that the arrests procured by
Gin Chong were a put up job, and the
presentAaction is admittedly in retaiia-
ton. The prominence of the Chinese
concerned nlay, it is feared, result in
renewal Of the tong war murders, de-
spite the fact that temporary truce
was recently agreed upon TO continue
until after the Chinese new year.
The present trouble started December
s. when Gin Chong, accompanied by
Deputy Constable Bert Hampstead of
Oakland, came to this city armed with
warrants for the arrest of four Yee
family men on murder charges. The
accusation against these Chinese
charged them with the murder of HON
Song Ju of the On Yick tong in Oak
land January Z, 1909.
i AOne of the four warrants was John
Doe" warrant, and it was on this that
Yee Bow Sue, an aged merchant of SIG
Washington street, was arrested. The
warrant contained no description and.
was not indorsed by any ma agistrate
of this city before Yee Bow Sue was
taken to Oakland 1t is also claimed
that Gin Chong at first told Constable
Hampstead that Yee Bow Sue was not
the man, but that after conversing with
some other Chinese reversed this state
ment.
The cases against Yee Bow Sue and
Yee Yock Joe We're dismissed by Jus
tice' Quinn for lack of evidence and the
arrest of Gin Chong was made fnne-
diately by Detective Fitzgerald and Ser
geant Griffin.
