FEAR GIRL LURE0
AWAY BY CHINESE
Disappearance of Accusing Wit
ness on Eve of Trial Puz-
zIeS the Police

The pretty 14-year- sister Of Abbie
sheehan, the child who Mills Sing, the
alleged white slave traffic" agent, is
accused of selling into a life of shame
among the Chinese, has disappeared on
the eve of the willy Chinese trial as
completely as though the earth had
opened and swallowed her.
She was to have been an important
witness for the prosecution in the case,
as the girl is said to have been on the
verge of accepting a proposition Sing
is alleged to have made to her when
his arrest on a charge of seducing her
sister thwarted his plans and saved
her from a like fate.
The authorities fear that the little
girl has been kidnapped and sent over
the blind route" which is said to
claim hundreds of victims yearly
among white girls imported to satiate
the lust of Chinatown in eastern cities.
At the time of her disappearance the
girl was employed in the home of As
sistant District Attorney Ford. Her
sister Abbie has never been heard
from since Sings arrest. Another vic
tim of Sings is little Edith Curtis,
whom the authorities say will prove
an important witness to them in show
ing the orientals tactics in seducing
the young.
Young and good-looking, speaking
perfect English and dressed in Ameri-
can clothes, Sing evidently has eXpe-
rienced little difficulty in enjoying the
good graces of many white women and
girls.
He is said to be 16 years old, but
looks much older. His parents, once
poor, are said to be comfortably well
off now. He has many friends in
Chinatown among the tong men. The
authorities believe him to be a special
agent for a Chinese company dealing
in girls for the white slave traffic.
He is held in the county Jail in default
of $4,000 bail. awaiting his trial Friday.
An alleged accomplice of Sings, Willie

MOTHER GUARDS WITH B0L0
Doctors Charged with Harsh
ness to TetrapodeS Who
Are Taken from Clinic

Twelve thousand miles from their
native sjungles of Samar, Lucio and
Simplicio, two Visayan babies, Joined
by nature for life or death as the Sia-
mese twins were Joined, slept last
night and dreamed of rustling bamboo
thickets and endless sticks of sugar
cane, far more tasty to the Filipino
baby than the chocolates of the Amer
icano. Beneath the mattress reposed
trifing bolo with blade some fifteen
inches long, for Josefa, mother of the
twins, though firm believer in the
Filipino doctrine that any baby worth
while can take care of himself, makes
strenuous objection to any ministering
to her babies by the hand of stran-
ger.
The twin babies. 2 years and 2
months old with their father. Leon,
their mother and their elder brother.
Pedro, years old, arrived in San
Francisco Saturday on the steamer
Manchuria, and Los Angeles is but a
brief stopping place in their itinerary,
for they are to be taken to Paris and
Berlin, where they are to be the sub
ject of clinic of famous European
surgeons on July 15, for the twins,
by reason of a congenital accident,
are condemned to spend their lives in
close company, their spines being con-
joined at the base.
TAKEN AWAY FROM DOCTORS
The babies were made the subject of
a clinic at the county hospital last
night, but, angered at what he consid-
cred harsh treatment accorded them by
the physicians investigating, r. j.
Louis, who is taking the babies to Eu-
rope, summarily removed them from
the clinic room of the hospital to
their room. Mr.. Louis has refused q
large cash offer for the appearance of
the twins at the session of the South
ern California Medical association to-
morrow.
The babies were found by Mr.. Louis
in an obscure part of Samar island,
$50 miles southeast of Manila, while
he was trying to locate a native mine,
and before coming to the United
States they were the subject of clinics
by thirty army surgeons at Manila and
of a large number of European sur
geons at Hongkong.
The babies are far brighter than
ordinary. native children of their age,
and objected to the presence of visitors
in their room by an ingenious waving
of adieus, saying in good English,
Good by, good by"
Their parents understand but little
English, but speak Spanish, as do all
Visayans, and are exceptionally clean
in their personal habits. They were
very reluctant to start on the long trip
across the Pacific. but finding at
Manila more "chow" than they had
any idea the world possessed, and be-
ing assured that in the United States
there were more different varieties of
eats than they could imagine, they
were persuaded to make the trip.
