STILL SEARCH FOR
SIGEL MURDERER
New York Authorities Sudden
ly Refuse to Give Out Infor
mation About Crime.
CHUNG SIN NOT SUSPECTED
rter Being Put Through Rigid Ex
amination, Leon's Friend Is
Held Merely as Witness of
the Ghastly Deed.
NEW YORK, June 23. After a day of
conflicting statements, the District Attor
neys office and tho police refused tonight
to discuss what farther progress had
been made in the search for Leon Ling,
the Chinese wanted for the murder of
Klsle SI irel. Neither would they discuss
the results of the examination of Chung;
Sin. Leon's former roommate, who has
been -arlously reported to have witnessed
the crime, to have aided in roping the
trunk, and finally merely to have seen
the girls body. There have been hourly
reports of clews from all parts of tho
country, but none brings the authorities
nny nearer the murderer.
What progress has been made with
Chung Sin, who underwent another four
hours of cross-questioning, is due to tho
offices of Quon Tick; Nam. a Chinese
merchant, who volunteered as an inter
preter. Chinese Feel Shame.
It is said he told Chung Sin, with an
earnestness that carried conviction that
no Chinese society would aid him in sup
pressing the secrets or concealing Leon
Ling, that every Chinese of responsi
bility In the country felt that the case
was bringing disrepute upon them, and
they were all united in their efforts to
cleer the matter.
That Chung Sin has not been actually
implicated In the crime itself, however,
is Indicated by the fact that tonight ho
was held in the house of detention for
witnesses, and not in the Tombs. What
ever be the whole truth of the informa
tion given by Chung Sin, it contains the
only clew on which the police can work.
To all questions Chung Sin reiterates he
occupied the room next to Leon, and on
the afternoon of June 9, the day of the
murder, he awakened early after a nat
ural sleep to find Leon standing beside
him. Leon was in trouble and wanted
help. Chung Sin soon understood why
when he saw the body lying across the
bed.
There was blood on the mouth and a
stained handkerchief was stuffed be
tween the lips. Leon explained to him
that the girl bit her tongue and bled
to death. Asked if that seemed plaus
ible to him, Chung Sin admitted that he
felt terrified and that his first im
pulse was to get out of the house as
soon as he could.
Before he left, however, Leon bor
rowed $200 from him, he said. They
both belonged to the same secret so
ciety, and ho felt bound by his oath
to do that muoh for a fellow member.
Then he had hurried to the rooms of
his cousin with the Intention of pass
ing the night, but his curiosity got the
better of him, and after two uneasy
hours he sneaked back to the house,
climbing the stairs and lifting himself
to where he could peer through the
transom and saw the room empty,
save for the trunk. That was enough
for him. He hurried back to his cousins
and slept there that night.
Next day he left for Amsterdam, N.
V., and near there he was arrested.
This version of what Chung Sin saw
and did is given out by Assistant Dis
trict Attorney "Ward, who was emphatic
in denying that Chung Sin had been
"put under the screws." or that he had
been in anyway threatened or Intimi
dated. CHINESE ARE MUCH ASHAMED

Mrs. Sarah A. Rlem, who until re
cently lived with her husband. William

and Urand avenues, lies at St. Vincent's
Hospital in a critical condition as a
result of domestic troubles between
her husband, herself and her brother-in-law,
Oswold Riem, now under arrest
charged with assaulting her. A war
rant Is also out for the arrest of Mrs.
Riem on a charge of being demented.
The case against Oswald Riem came
D in Justice Bell's court yesterday
afternoon,- and when Mrs. Rlem, the
complainant was called, it was discov
ered that she was absent. Miss Sargent,
of the woman's police auxiliary, who
has interested herself In the woman's
cause, explained that Mrs. Rlem was in
the hospital suffering from black
eyes and other injuries. The case was
continued indefinitely.
Rlem says that his sister-in-law struck
him over the head with an umbrella.
She eays that he "made a face" at her
and then beat her. This happened during
Rose Festival week. Mrs. Riem went to
police headquarters and asked for a war
rant for her brother-in-law's arrest,
which she failed to secure.
When Deputy Constable McCulloch went
to arrest Oswold Riem Tuesday after
noon he was the cause of bringing the
three recalcitrants together again. An
other quarrel ensued and the brothers say
that Mrs. Riem attacked her husband
with a knife, forcing him to flee for his
life.

Lew Is ton National's Loss
of $137,000.
LEWISTON, Idaho, June 23. (Spe
cial.) J. E. Chapman was this morning
held to answer to the United States
Court on the charge of falsifying the
records of the Lewlston National Bank
In connection with entries Involving
drafts on the Bank of California, of
Portland. Four other counts charging
embezzlement and falsifying the rec
ords were dismissed. His bonds were
fixed at 13000. which were furnished.
Chapman was formerly teller of the
bank and is charged with complicity in
manipulating the bank's records
through which defalcations to the
amount of $137,000 were effected.
C. W. Robnett, the former bookkeeper
of the bank, this morning waived pre
liminary examination on similar
charges and was held to the Federal
Court under S10.000 bonds. From the

LUMBER TARIFF IS RAISED
(Continued From First Faffs.)
tlon to make a rate of $1.25 per thou
sand on lumber, with a general change
In the differentials, and on this vote the
finance committee also was liberally
supported.
The entire wood sohedule, making; re
ductions of about 26 per cent from the
present rates and increasing the House
rates to about the same extent, was
then agreed to.
Dingley Rates' on Pineapples.
The House had fixed a duty of 8 cents
per cubic foot on pineapples in barrels
and of $8 ner thousand, hut th kahq
committee on finance reduced this rate
to 7 cents and $7. respectively, thus re
storing the provisions of the Dingley
law. Taliaferro, of Florida, presented
an amendment restoring the House
rate, but changing other portions of
the schedule so as to renutre tViA n,v.
ment of half a cent a pound for plne-
CLpiCS 111 DU1K.
Smith and Rayner of Maryland, in
whose states there are large pineapple
canning factories, made a strenuous
fight on general principles against the
increase of the duty. Rayner charged
the Republican party with bad faith
in promising to lower the tariff duties.
After a debate lasting four hours,
the Taliaferro amendment was adopted,
34 to SO. Thiswas a defeat for the
finance committee, but the amendment
was not strenuously resisted by the
committee and several of its members
voted for it.
Duty 60 Cents on Coal.
It had been expected that the coal
schedule would be debated at great
length, but It was passed after little
more than an hour's discussion. A new
schedule was presented by Aldrich as
chairman of the finance committee, re
ducing the House rate on bituminous
coal from 67 cents per ton to 60 cents
and eliminating the House reciprocity
clause.
The principal debate on lumber came
In connection with McCumber's amend
ment reducing the differentials on
planed or finished lumber 33 1-3 per
cent and reducing the duty on sawed
lumber to $1.25 a thousand feet. He
claimed that modern methods had re
duced the cost of planing when more
than one side of a board is planed, so
that by a single operation and at near
ly the same expense, both sides could
be finished.

SURE OF PASSAGE
Both Senate and House Will
Be Polled Before Any
Move Is Made.
ALDRICH FEELS CONFIDENT
Dwlght Says If Senate Adopts the
Measure, House Will Accept It
Readily Income Taxers
Still Nourish Hope.
WASHINGTON, June 23. Before the
Senate takes up President Taft's pro
gramme for the taxation of net earnings
of , corporations, the leaders will know
how every member Intends to vote on the
subject. The most careful poll that can
be made -will be in the hands of Senator
Aldrich tomorrow and will be communi
cated to the President. It appears that
the finance committee members were
Justified in assuring the President that
the measure would be adopted.
Representative John Dwight, of New
York, the Republican whip, promised
Senate leaders today that if the Senate
adopts the corporation tax plan In the
tariff bill the amendment will be re
tained by the House.
Attorney-General Wickersham and Sen
ator Root today determined that the
measure should be made "amendment
proof" before it Is offered to the Senate.
It Is the intention of the Senate leaders
to resist any amendment that may be
offered.
The supporters or the Bailey-Cummins
Income tax amendment, which the Presi
dent's plan Is expected to supplant, have
not abandoned their intention to obtain a
direct vote on the income tax question.
If their amendment Is displaced it Is
likely that practically all the Republicans
will vote for the corporation tax.

Captain Conboy Spoils Long Record
by Wanton Attack on
Citizen.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 23. Bernard
Lagan, the young business man of this
city, who was shot and seriously wounded
by Captain of Police Michael Conboy
early today, is lingering between life
and death tonight at the St. Francis
Hospital, and his physicians entertain but
little hopes.
Stripped of his uniform and star and
facing a charge after a splendid record
of 31 years in the police department, the
Captain occupies a cell in the city prison.
Chief of Police Jesse B. Cook suspended
him from duty on a charge of having
been under the influence of liquor at the
time of the shooting. Mr. Cook stated
tonight that Conboy would not talk of the
affair and apparently had no recollection
of it.
According to the statement of Lagan,
taken at the Central Emergency Hospital,
where he was removed Immediately after
the shooting, the attack on him by the
police officer was entirely unprovoked.
I-agan declared that he was walking
along Fillmore street when he was ac
costed by Conboy, who was not in uni
form. The wounded man asserted that
the police captain was Intoxicated, and
began to abuse him after daring him to
fight.

only the interests of the city and that
the award of contract should go to the
lowest responsible bidder.
L. A. McNary was present to represent
the Pacific Bridge Company, which had
in a bid for the entire structure at a
figure which came- within the appropria
tion, but which, if accepted, would have
cost the city about $23,000 more than to
award the work to the lowest bidders.
The Board did not feel Justified In doing
this, and held to its right, under the law,
by letting the contracts to Mr. Wake
field and the other company.
Questions Validity of Action.
Mr. McNary said that he did not think
it within the power of the Board to award
the separate contracts under the bids of
Wakefield and the other company, when
there was a complete bid from another
bidder before it. However, after cortn
siderlng all phases of the situation, the
Board awarded the contracts as stated.
It will now be necessary for the con
tractors to qualify by furnishing a bond
for the contract price of the work. The
actual construction of the bridge will be
superintended by the firm of Waddell &
Harrington, the members of which -drew
up the plans and specifications.
