BLUE LION MAKES
ITS SECOND VISIT
Tan1alpais Hybrid Stampedes
Herd of Holstens Over 100
Foot Bluff
Especial Disratch to The Cain

Especial Disratch TO The calll
SAN RAFAEL. May o.-For the sec
ond time in six months a strange hy-
brid known as the 'blue mountain lion
made it's appearance yesterday In the
vicinity of Lake Lagunitas, at the foot
of the east slope of Mount Tamalpais.
Plunging into the center of herd of
Thoroughbred Holstein cattle owned by
A. W. Foster. the lion frightened them
into a mad run, which carried them
over a steep bluff into a ravine 100 feet
below
Four of the animals were killed out
right and more than a dozen OF them
crippled so badly they were shot to end
their miseries.
On the occasion of his former raid
the beast was seen then at close range
by County Surveyor George Richard
son, who described it as having the
general appearance of mountain lion,
but with head like that of a lynx, and
being of a peculiar blush color.
Large rewards have been offered for
the hide of the animal by connoisseurs,
who believe it is the only remaining
specimen of a species once common.

Entire Correspondence of
Both Sides Is to Be
Laid Before the Public
Later in the Negotiations

WASHINGTON, d. c., May s.--Nego-
tiations between America and Japan re-
garding the California land legislation
formally were initiated today when
Secretary Bryan had two meetings with
the Japanese ambassador at the state
department.
While there had been several ex-
changes between the two officials since
the Inception OF the California legisla-
tion. they had been informal and based
UPON sse desire of the Japanese gov
ernment to avert an open issue.
ANSWER LIKELY TODAY
Today. however. in anticipation of
the consummation OF the legislation.
the japanese government handed in its
formal protest. which was considered
by the government and the cabinet. and
found sufficiently weighty to call for
deliberate treatment. So it was ar
ranged that viscount Chinda again
should meet Secretary Bryan at the
state department tomorrow morning, by
which time the secretary may be in
position to give an answer to the COM
munication.
The nature of the Japanese objec-
tons can be only surmised, as by mu-
tual agreement the parties to the con-
ference refrained from discussing it.
That it is based upon the general
charge that the California law. await
ing Governor Johnson's signature,
would discriminate against Japanese
subjects. is believed to be certain

After his second short conference
with the Japanese ambassador, Secre-
tary Bryan departed for New York to
deliver a speech at banquet there to-
night on the subject of peace, intending
to start on his return trip at midnight.

TONGMAN SLAIN
IN RE vE NGE FOR
FAMILY WRONG
Bing Kong Member Kills
Wong Yuen for Flirting
With Wife-Wounds
Another

For trifing with the affections OF
another Chinaman's wife, Wong Yuen
of AZ Ross alley was shot and Instantly
killed at S.45 o'clock last night in
Stockton street near Washington.
Lew Duck, member of the Four
Family tong, was wounded by two
stray bullets.
The Bing Kong man who did the
shooting escaped.
Wong Yuen was the husband of a
fortune teller and for the last several
months women came to his house in
Ross alley to learn their fortunes from
his wife.
Among them was the wife of a prom
inent member of the Bing Kong tong,
to which Wong Yuen also belonged.
Wong became infatuated with this
woman and her husband discovered the
affinity between the two.
The scandal was brought up before
the Bing Kong tong in council two
weeks ago and Wong Yuen was igno-
miniously expelled from the society.
The irate husband threatened Wong
with instant death il he did not cease
the Illicit relations.
Two days ago news came to the
tongman that his wife again had vis-
tied Wong's residence. He bought q
revolver. Then he waited for Wong
Last night he learned Wong was in a
store at 1882 Stockton street. He
waited outside until Wong came out
and then fired six shots at him. Two
Of the bullets took fatal effect In
stantly.
Lew Duck, hearing the first shot
rushed out and was struck by two stray
bullets. One grazed his abdomen and
the second cut through his left wrist.
TWO OF the bullets crashed through the
store windows.
The murderer dropped the revolver
and made his escape.
Chinese believe in summary punish
ment for any breach Of family rela-
tions of this sort and there will be no
tong war as the result of the shooting.
The Four Family tong may demand
medical expenses for its injured mem
Der from the Bing Kong tong, but as
Lew Ducks wounding was accidental
there is no possibility of trouble re-
sulting therefrom-
Sergeant Peter McGee OF the China
town squad probably will apprellend
the murderer soon.

most OF FIRE Loss
TIRE WASTE FOR july, $685.
OS1O7 Was Way Above the

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. August
A. CSpeCiulD From the fact that
lightning caused an unusually large
fire loss during the month Of July,
the fire waste for that month Is much
above the average. according TO the
report Of Fire Marshal 6. &. Mann

tai for the month was S23S,0S1. OF.
The loss by lightning was confined
wholly to the oil field, and the gen
eral fire waste was increased bun
slightly over the corresponding month
in 1911 and 1912. There were l4S
fires during the month of July Of
which G3 were from unknown origin.
