Korean Association Suing Three
Expelled Members-EchO Of
Mice Suicide Case.
tFrom Thursday, e Advertlserl


with the fling Of suit for fifty
thousand dollars for SANDER against G.
II Young, formerly Korean detective
and row tho proprietor of an employ
ment agency; Sin Hong Kun, pastor of
the Korean Independent Church, and
Nee Ma Su, once the president Of the
local branch Of the Korean National
Society, which will be done this morn
ing, another chapter Of the mystery
surrounding the suicide of Victor II.
Mice, the young Korean patriot, will
be made plain to the public. The SLAM
der suit is being brought officially by
the Korean society ostensibly to clear
Chillay Cheung, the present president,
from certain charges brought against
him, but actually the case is brought
to clear the name Of Mice.
The Korean plaintiffs declare that
Mice was driven to his death through
groundless charges made against him,
charges which his suicide demonstrated
the falsity of. According to Korean
reasoning, only a man perfectly inno-
cent would take his own life as an
answer to slauderous assaults.
Those against whom the actions for
SANDER are to be brought have openly
acknowledged their share in circulating
false reports concerning Nhee, accord
ing to the statements made yesterday
by President Cheung and according to
an official statement issued by the
Korean society in an extra of their
newspaper, published in Korean. The
alleged false statements are these:. @.
H. Young is said to have written to
the Koreans of the other islands to
the effect that the two thousand dollars
raised to help their brother Koreans in
Yucatan was in the hands of "white
and yellow thieves,' intimating that
Mice had arranged with some white
attorney to take the money and divide
it, the attorney to get his share for
services he would claim had been rem
dered and Mice to get his as com
mission. He urged the Koreans to OPP
pose carrying the Yucatan scheme
through and to insist on having the
money returned to the contributors.
The Korean president claims that, on
the other hand, Young was simply mad
because his claim to a commission was
to be defeated through the employment
of an attorney of Nhee's selection, wh0
was to give no commission.
The Korean minister of the gospel is
charged with SANDER because he wrote
letters backing up Young's charges
that Nhee was peddling the Korean
business among the lawyers and look
ing for the one who would give hin
the biggest rakeoff.
Nee Ma Su, once president of the as
ISOLATION, went further in his alleged
Islander, having written to delegates
elect to the annual convention that the
present president had taken the Yuca
tan fund and skipped out with it.
The Korean association has already
taken steps against these three, having
held an indignation meeting and ex
PEELED them from the patriotic league
as unworthy. Now, in order that the
public may know the attitude of the
association toward Mice, the siandeI
actions for $4,000 damages are to bC
brought, Lorrin Andrews being retain
ed to handle the suits.
Young Versus Young
When the indignation meeting wal
held, says President Cheung, G. Il
Dung publicly acknowledged his guilt
According to Cheung, he made thii
statement on the floor of the eonven
ton:
'fThe bad C. H. Young has beef
taught by the good c. H. Young thes'
things: First spoiled the Mexican
matter for selfish motives. I wrote thu
letter about white and yellow thieves
This was sin. ] know it was wrong
spoke to Sin Hong Kun telling hin
Cheung and Mice were asking a com
mission from the lawyers. I was wront
in all these matters. hope ever
Korean will excuse me and forgivl
pe.''
The two others accused of slande
also acknowledged that they had writ
ten the charges referred to, but the,
did not ask for forgiveness.
The Koreans of the Territory, 0,
whom there are four or five Thousand
allied with the national association, ar.
tremendously excited over this Who'll,
affair, much more so than any whit,
man is able to scredit. Smaller thing
than this have resulted in assassina
lions among Koreans and while it il
not expected that there will be an,
blood shed, at the same time there Il
more or less talk in Korean cireIe
about the blood of the guilty havinI
TO atone for that shed by the innoeen
Mice.
