TO ASK FEDERAL
ACTION AGAINST
CHINESE ORDER
Attorney for Proprietor OF
New Chop Suey Cafe Says
Tonss Must Not In.
>timidate Him. ~

Latest developments OF the
Chinese tong war in Omaha are:
First, the posting of warning
against all nonmembers of the On
Leong tong not to interfere with the
tong's activities; second, the ultima
tum Of John w. Battin, attorney for
Joe Lee, that if any further effort
is made by the tong TO prevent his
client from opening cafe at l40o
Faruam >stTeet, the matter will be
submitted to federal authorities.
The warning against nonmcmbcrs
Of the toug was posted Thursday at
the entrance to the alleged On
Leong Tong den at III North
Twelfth street. 1t is printed i'll
Chinese characters of black, on an
orange background.
Attorney Issues Ultimatum.
The ultimatum issued by Mr..
Battin came after several confer
ences with his client. Joe Lee, pro
prietor OF the California cafe, and
leader OF group OF nonmember
Chinese. who were routed byNalleged
members of the tong in battle at
lA0S Farnam street. Sunday.
Lee is paying a high rent for the
property on Faraam street. and
,lans to open the cafe in spite OF
he efforts of the tong, Mr.. Battin
said. The threat published by the
.ong in the January 10 issue of the
Chung Sal Vat Po," Chinese
daily paper of San Francisco, which
is carried by United States mails to
all parts of the country, is a fed
cral offense, authorities say, and any
further attempt on the part of the
Omaha branch of the tong to coerce
Lee will be put in the hands of fed
eral officers, Mr. Battin today de-
clared.
c. Of c. Men Neutral.
Chamber OF Commerce officials are
taking keen interest in the affairs.
but are remaining neutral. They
have taken the stand that the case
is a matter for federal authorities.
Chinese say that at one time there
were three tongs in Omaha. One
has disappeared, and another, the
Hop Sui tong has lost so many mem-
bers that the On Leong tong domi-
mates the city, Chinese residents
told Bee reporter.
