1 WRITES TO PORTLAND
t KGES CHINESE TO END WAR OF
TONUS.
Oriental Minister Doclarcs Murder
ers of Ijc Dai Huey Should Suf
fer the Penalty of Death.
Wu Ting Fang. Ambassador to fhe
t'nlted States and Mexico, has taken a
hand in the Chinese tong trouble that has
started In Portland. When a riiseruntled
Chinese who had been expelled from the
Bow Wong Tong. gathering a few kin
dred spirits about htm and obtaining aid
from San Francisco, planned and carried
out the murder of Lee Dai Huey. one of
the best-known and most-respected of the
Chinese merchants of Portland, an Inner
dissension was stirred up in the tong
that threatened for a time to drag in
other companies and to result in one of
the bloody tong wars that have stirred
other cities and have resulted In much
destruction of life and property.
The police of Portland,, however, aided
by the more peaceable of the Chinese
residents, have managed to keep the
upper hand of the belligerent faction, and
In spite of the fact that they imported

gunmen and knifemen from San Fran
cisco and made one or two sporadic at
tempts to "pet" others whom they had
marked for slaughter, no other fatalities
have resulted.
Realizing the folly of these tong wars
with their attendant loss of life, the mer
chants of the local Chinatown have held
numerous conferences, with the object of
allaying the bloodthirsty feeling of the
belligerent faction, and have appealed to
the Chinese Consul at San Francisco.
Not long ago he sent a communication to
the local consulate to be delivered to the
judge sitting in the case of those charged
with the murder of Lee Dal Huey. and
asking that as severe a sentence as possi
ble be given them if they were found
guilty. The San Francisco Consul also
notified the Ambassador at Washington
of thf occurrence, and a letter just re
ceived from him is the result.
It was oiot at first the intention of the
lot-al Chinese to appeal to the representa
tive of their government in this country,
for the reason that as it started the trou
ble, did not affect more than one tong,
but there is a feeling of very great relief
here over the fact that the Ambassador
has interested himself in the trouble.
This letter from Wu-Ting Fang was writ
ten to Lee Dai Quon, a brother of the
murdered man. with instructions for him
to give it to the proper authorities. The
translation of the letter follows:
Imperial Chinese Consulate. Washington.
I. C, April l, 190S. Lee Dai Quon. Port
land. Or.:
I am Ambassador to United States and
Mexico, Wu Ting- Fanjr.
I receive complaint from Portland that all
the merchants have suffered because Lee
Dai Huey in killed and that Lee Dal Quon,
his brother. Is aid to be an honest man and
to suffer because an Innocent man is killed
by highbinders. I am of ureat grief because
of this. 1 hear the excellent police run to
earth some of the highbinders in own room
and get all weapons in their possession. The
court should give punishment to them in
first depree, because v'ninese in America
make tong war all the time. Highbinders
have got Influence . to get acquitted and
them who is not careful they try to. kill all
the time. This is the same as little boys'
play.
I am very sorry. I wish the court to have
thes men banged.
I receive word from San Francisco Consul
about this case.
