ONE NEAR-R|OT
At AALA PARK
Chinese Hold Mass Meeting to
Hear Visitors and a Few Try
to Cause Trouble.
From Thursday Advertiserl

Chat King and Woo See Hing, who are
on their way to China as representa-
tives of the Chinese of the United
States in the national assembly, were
attacked by mob last night, follow
ing addresses which they made at Aala
Park under the auspices of the All
Chinese ball team.
The riot, it is charged, was melted
by members OF small faction here
which calls itself the Sun Vat Sen
party, but is said to use the name of
the statesman TO promote its own ends
and to have no real Connection with the
party IA China.
The two visitors are supposed to be
aligned against Doctor Sun politically,
and when it was announced that they
would speak to their countrymen last
night 1T is said that the rival faction
sent down a band of toughs with in
structions to break up the meeting
Their presence was apparent early in
the evening, when they began to cir
culate through the crowd uttering cat
calls, only to he suppressed by the
three policemen on duty at the park.
Wong Ho, the chairman, called the
attention of the audience to the fact
that the speakers were the guests of
the local Chinese and should be treated
with courtesy. The crowd as a whole
seemed to be favorable, and gave both
men close attention as they urged the
Chinese to take an interest in the gov
eminent and detailed the duties of
citizenship.
Chat King, the first speaker was not
interrupted. He made no attack on
Doctor Sun, but urged the cause of ed
ucation, declaring that free speech, a
| free press and free schools were urgent
needs of the China of today. He paid
a high compliment to the All-Chinese
ball team, which lie said had done more
to help the cause of China in the
United States than any other organiza-
ton.
When Woo See Hing arose to speak,
the disturbers began to get busy, APP
uarently in the hope Of driving him
into using incorporate language The
! speaker kept cool, however and there
was no outbreak until he said that he
bad read i'm n japanese paper that if,
I GLOWING the elections in China, the
Republic failed to show that it was
capable of becoming a strong govern
ment. Japan would assist at the parti.
tion of China in May.
Either through ignorance or intent
some one in the crowd shouted that the
speaker had declared for the partition
of China. Part of the crowd took NJ
the cry and began 10 shout threats and
curse nj the speaker, calling on him Ia
stop speaking, When he concluded, a
rush was made M the spenkers ns they
left the stand, hut the members Of IN,
AllChnese hall team formed around
them and escorted them on the grounds
In safety.
The policemen on duty, unable 20 un
dcrstnnd Chinese, apparently thought
that the crowd was cheering the yisi

tempted to make fiery speech at the
meeting of the Democratic county COM
mittee last night, and was promptly
squelched by the chairman and the 9TH
err members of the committee. He then
introduced a resolution declaring that
no candidate for a position should be
eligible for appointment who was not
identified with the Democratic party
before the election. He defied the as
sembly to pass it, and was much sur
prised when they did so without dis
senting vote. Afterwards he had moth
ing to say.
Theodore Hoffman, who was appoint
ed examiner of chauffeurs at the meet
ing Tuesday night, sent in his appli-
cation for the position to the county
committee last night, apparently on the
theory of better late than never"
In order to do away with the friction
which is already apparent in the party,
w. E. Miles offered resolution pro-
viding that committee be named to
deal with the patronage problem. The
committee, he suggested, should be
chosen from the Democratic, represen-
tatives, senators and supervisors, one
from each body, and their decision as
to the filing of positions should be
final. The resolution was passed and
Gilbert j. Waller viii name the COM
mittee.
BY adopting this resolution, the couR-
ty committee receded from the stand
taken by some of its members that the
supervisors are required to take orders
from the committee. The decisions of
this patronage committee are supposed
to be not subject r. question by the
county committee.

WASHINGTON, January s.-(Spec-

mony about the so-cailed shipping trust
between the United States and South
America was given today to the house

William Lowery, South American
agent for the Pan-Ameriean Mail,
which it is claimed was driven out of
business by the trust, testified how
large shippers declined to use the new
line for fear of losing their rebates
from the European lines. lie suggested

ports European ships giving such re-

We have built the Panama Canal

"The idea that the ocean is free is
about ms big fallacv as exists in
America" testified William II. Doug
lass, a large New York exporter to
South America and Europe.
The steamship lines, German and
British, We're in combination, having
the ocean under their stricter control
than any combination ever had any
trade between the States, he added,
and his firm was supposed to give its
business to the Houston line.
''The men who sit in London controll-
ing these lines can throw contracts for
goods to any country they please, simp-

Douglass testified.
