SAYS DOOM IS SEALED ".Mayor of Chinatown" Declares Death Sentence Is- Posted .on Walls Along Second ' Street. lamblers Back of Plot. ' ChutiR CluiTic. known as "the Mayor of Chinatown." rushed breathlessly- into iwlice headquarters last night at 9 o'clock and begged Chief of Police Gritzmaeher to detail a squad of officers to protect him from highbinders. The excited Asi atic declared that murderous hirelings of rival tongs were seeking to kill ' him be cause they had been informed that Chung betrayed their gambling dens to the po lice. Chief of Police Gritzmaeher thought Chung's life was not In grave danger, although the excited Chinese declared that all Chinatown was in an uproar over the affair and that posters had been placed on conspicuous corners of the dis trict warning Chung to beware; that his life was in danger, and that he would be killed at the first opportunity. Chung Chung refused to leave police headquarters for a time, fearing he would be assassinated at any moment, but seemed to be more calm after a chat with Chief Gritzmaeher and ventured out into the streets very cautiously. ' According to Chung Chung he had been heralded throughout Chinatown as hav ing betrayed the location of certain Chi nese establishments where fantan games have been in operation of late. His in vestigation, he stated, had developed the fact that Patrolman James Anderson had told some of Chung's rivals that Chung had given the police information about gambling games. Angered because of this alleged betrayal, the tongs are said to have employed some murderous highbind ers to execute Chung. The first that Chung knew of the trou ble, he said, was when passing the bul letin board at Second and Alder streets. An excited crowd of Chinese were stand ing about eagerly reading a flaring poster. Chung stopped long enough to read the characters that made him quake with mortal terror, at which he dashed off to his own house to Investigate. Trusted friends were dispatched to various es tablishments throughout Chinatown to seek Information and brought back the statements that Chung was accused of betraying rivals to Patrolman Anderson. Chung Chung is a powerful specimen of the Chinese race, being the largest resident of the district, but he trembled with fear and appeared to be in constant terror lest he should be shot down by some unseen foe.

Postal Inspectors Riches and Clements returned yesterday from Forest Grove, where they went to investigate the post office robbery which occurred! Friday night of last week, when J60 in cash, and $300 worth of stamps were stolen. The officials made a careful search for clews, but report that they have noth ing tangible as yet, though they feel cer tain that -the cracksmen who did the job came from Portland, and may be hiding here. They traced the thieves from For est Grove to Reedvllle by means of a rail way velocipede, which was stolen from the section house at Cornelius on the night of the 'robbery. From Reedvllle the robbers are supposed to have come to this city by train. The cracksmen pursued the same meth ods used 'by other 'burglars who have been operating in different parts of the Valley. The Inspectors found among the tools abandoned by the thieves a punch, a burglar's Jimmy, a cake of soap and seven yards of fuse. The jimmy was used to pry off the combination disc, and the punch was employed to drive out the bolt which holds the tumblers of the combination. This prepared an open ing in which the explosive was inserted, and as a -result of the explosion the front of the safe was blown off, exposing the contents. The jimmy used was of a type unfa miliar to the Government officials, and when found was much bent and dam aged. The punch was stolen from a wagon shop in the town on the night of the robbery; also a large sledge hammer, the handle of which had been sawed off for convenience. This tool was found where it had been thrown, under a side walk, i FRANK L. SMITH MEAT CO. 226-226 Alder Street, Between 1st and 2d Sts.
