w SAA AA~AN NAN/
Fifty three Chinese were ar
rested last night at Nogales,
Sonora, by Enrique Cessna,
chief of police, in a series Of
raids upon alleged dope and
gambling dens.
Five Chinese, Manuel Wong,
Luis cyan, Julio Cheu Fong,
Sen Qli and Elias G,jioa. are
held for investigation on charges
on being peddlers, Julio Cheu
Fong ,one of those charging with
peddling, was apprehended while
in the act of smoking opium.
Cessna said.
A total Of Is drug addicts
were taken into custody, and
charged with vagrancy. Twen
ty more Chinese were arrested
in an Oriental gambling house, T"
Cessna reported.
Thirteen other Cinnamon, who
had no visible meaps of support
and who bad been under surveil
lance for some time. were book
ed at police headquarters as
vagrants.
Chief Cessna stated that he
had confscated two opium pipes,
but that it was impossible to find
any drugs. although several of
the houses which were raided
reeked of opium fumes.
Blanket charges Of vagrancy,
immortality. misconduct and dope
peddling have been lodged
against the majority OF the
Chinese, according to police. 1t
is expected that the Chinese will
receive sentences of from five
days to one month in Jail depend.
ing upon the case.
As long as no narcotics we're
cou fiiscated. the Chinese may be
charged with civil offenses only.
However. if narcotics had been
found. federal charges would
have been lodged against them,
Cessna claims.
The chief of police stated that
for some time Mexican police
had been receiving complaints
against different Chinese meeting
places. Close surveillance had
been maintained by police. Last
night several Chinese created q
disturbance ia International ST..
aud were lodged in the city Jail.
Later it developed that they
we're members of vice ring.
Orders we're immediately issued
for raids upon all suspected dens
of vice, Cessna said.
Cessna emphatically denied
that the raids we're due to a fare
of anti-Chinese agitation which
for the past year has caused an
exodus of Celestials from the
states of Sonora, and Sinaloa
into the Uoited States.
