as Trader.

NEW YORK. Sept. 13.-After Inspec-
tor Dwyer came to rule over Chinatown
he discovered that, although there had
been an exodus OF several thousand
Chinese to other cities. the attendance
on Oriental worship In the Temple OF
the Dragon Joss house. at 20 Mott street.
had steadily increased. and he sent
Detectives Mitchell and Kelly to find
the reason.
According to the stories told by the
detectives to Magistrate Koenig In the
Tombs court yesterday. their entrance
to the Joss house was opposed vigorous
ly by High Priest Chu Wong In his full
priestly regalia, aided by several mus
cular members OF the congregation.
When the door finally gave way they
said they saw High Priest Chu rush
TO a window and try to throw two large
packages into the street.
The packages were found to contain
opium, and, according to Mitchell and
Kelly. the high priest had dealt ex-
tensively in the drug. The magistrate
held him in 500 bald for further ex-

MARVIN HUCHITT
A BOISE VISITOR
Chairman of Board of Di-
rectors Of the Chicago &
Northwestern in City.

Because he had often been asked
about Boise but had never been here
and therefore could not make an accur-
ate statement regarding this city, Mar
vim Hughitt, chairman of the board OF
directors of the Chicago & Northwest
ern railroad, the biggest official of that
great system, stopped over in the cap
ital of Idaho for just 20 minutes this
morning. He was pleased and delight
ed with what he saw and expressed his
appreciation to the committee that met
him and gave his party short auto
trip about the city. Then he left on his
specia ltrain for the east. Mr.. Hughitt
is nearer So years Of age than so but is
remarkably well preserved for man
so old. He does not look a day oyer
So.
Others included in Mr.. Hughitt's
party were Mrs. Hughitt; Hiram r.
Mccullough. vice president In charge
OF traffic of the Chicago Sc Northwest
ern; j. D. Farrell, president of the
Oregon Washington Railway & Navi-
cation company; j. A. Reeves, general
freight agent of the Oregon Short Line
Railroad company and A, G. Hinckley.
superintendent of motive power and
machinery of the latter railroad.
Owing to the persistent reports uf
the possibility of the Chicago & North
western building from Lander, Wyo.,
to Idaho, 1t was at first thought the
trip Of Mr.. ,Hughitt was of more than
usual significance. 1t was learned.
however, from members of the party.
that there was no significance attach
ed to it. Mr.. Hughitt is looking over
the Union Pacific and the Northwest
ern systems and, as he had never been
to Boise, but had heard much about
this city, he took sufficient time to run
In and see Idaho's capital. The auto
ride took the party through the BUSH
ness section, Warm Springs avenue,
Harrison boulevard and other portions
of the city.
