Detectives, Fearing Outbreak,
Are on Duty at Every Point
in Chinatown.
IS BURIED AS A CATHOLIC
The Rev. r. J. HutchisOn Of
Church Of Transfigura-
ton Officiates.

AS bland and impressive as the
ashen face of 70 Low himself. lying
there in his billiard parlor at II Pell
street right where pool table erst-
while stood, was his funeral yester-
day. Not that it wasn't a funeral i'm
was so well ordered and subdued that
not until the casket was being lowered
into the grave at Cypress Hills Gene
terry, when Miss Kee Sang Ko Lows
niece. struggled with those members
of the Hip Sing Tong who restrained
her from plunging into the dark hole
in the wake of her uncle's body. was
there any public weeping.
10 Low was national president OF
the Hip Sing Tong and man of much
wealth and many enemies. He was
shot to death last Monday in front of
the Chinese Delmonico's. Many too
are the stories concerning the why's
and wherefores Of the murder Of Ko
Low. but--to start with the very OBJ
vious story OF the funeral
About noon yesterday Special Dep
uty Police Commissioner Shaw, In
spector Coleman and Captain Barry OF
Oak street marched eighty policemen
half Of them in plain clothes. into Pell
street and set themselves for anything
that might happen. They stationed
themselves at the Bowery entrance to
Doyers. Pell and Bayard streets. They
lined up along Mott street from Park
Row to Bayard street. They took COM
manding positions on the taller roofs
that look down upon 10 Lows late
home-a freshly painted four story
frame tenement that somehow or other
suggests, in it's windowless impas-
sivity, its late owner.
Nobody was allowed to 1oftcr. There
were no curb conferences But the
crowds in the Bowery. Pell and Doyers
streets were prodigious. From Washing
ton Heights and Harlem. from Green
point. where Alderman Peter McGuin-
ness is finding smuggled-in coolies. and
from Flatbush, people had come to wit
ness what had been widely advertised
az lnc GREATEST luntfdi tudl CHINATOWN
has ever held.
Along about IL :45 Edward Gong. local
secretary OF the Hip Sing Tong. escorted
the reporters into the billiard parlor
where Lo Rows body lay beneath glass.
The place was heavy with flowers. The
pool tables had been moved into n rear
room. and on them lay forty water
melons and many cases OF something
that looked like beer. but which the
guard. Harry Hop. said was mo good
taste"
At o'clock the ceremonies began.
There seems TO have been some mixup
about the clergyman. II had been said
that 10 Low. although not Christian.
had been somewhat sympathetic with
the ideals of the Protestant missionaries
who hold forth In Chinatown. They sav,
too. that women had something to 10
