WARNING ToNGS DECLARE

Gun Men of Frisco Chinatown

\rariIy Sunday

SAN FRANCISCO. Feb. 5.--rhe fu-
neral of Wong Chong, millionaire head
of the powerful Wong family, interrupt
ed hostilities between the warning gun
men of the tongs in the local Chinese
quarter Sunday.
Wong's funeral procession headed by
an automobile hearse, was three miles
long. The = services were held in the
Chinese Presbyterian church.
Wong was SO years old and came to
this country at the age R z. His first
venture was made in farming in South
Dakota. Later he came to the coast
and forced his way into various gam
bling privileges. In his later years he
was able to keep his gambling houses
open when others we're forced to close
through fear of raids by gun men. He
was a stakeholder in the Sal Gal Vat Pc

1t was rumored last night that at
secret meeting of wealthy merchants II
had been resolved to appeal to the fed
eraI government to arrange with the
Chinese republic for the deportation OF
all gun men.

SAVANNAH NAVAL STORES
START BRISK DEMAND
Foreign Buyers Are Now Very
Much in Evidence on
Market
Especial Dispatch to The Journal)

Special Dispatch to The JournaL)
SAVANNAH. Ca, Feb. 5-The naval
stores market opened IN Savannah Sat
urday morning for the last days trad
ing of the week under very strong aus
pices- 1t has been some time since the
market has shown such a strong tend
ency and the outlook is that the new
week will Begin on Monday with the
demand as brisk as il has been for the
last three days OF the closing week
The foreign demand for spirits is now
marked and those who buy for London
and other markets abroad are taking all
the stuff they can get at quotations The
sales FRIDAY and Saturday at AZ 10 cents
a gallon show how much the supplies are
needed by certain purchasers. The mar
ket had been fairly active at 46 cents
for couple Of days before the squirt on
Friday afternoon and with the demand
as brisk at the closing Of the week as il
was there is every reason to believe IL
viii be quoted at 81 IL cents at least by
Mondays opening.
There are some factors who are holding
out stocks in the belief that the market
must so upward because of the heavy
demand and they have refused A IL cents
for these holdings. The American Naval
Stores company bid q cents for stuff
Friday and Saturday morning but they
did not get any at that figure. Earle
and the London and Savannah Naval
Stores company were willing to pay the
half cent moro demanded by those who
would sell at all.
So far there have been no future sales
reported at all. This is a rather unusual
condition and II is causing some COM
ment.
Resins have gained additional strength
during the past few days and they have
been sold at advanced prices. There were
some very sharp, advances yesterday aft
ernoon and this held through this morn
ing. The temporary dullness of a week
ago seems to have speedily vanished
when the stocks of the consumers ran
low and they were forced to come into
the market to replenish. IL begins to
look that the man who has any spirits
turpentine can get 50 cents a gallon for it
before tho month of February is very
much older.
