TVar of a renewal of tons' hostilities, ;' either djring or immediately after tli i' trial of Gong Woo and 2 1 -other off icers and members f the allied Hop Sins i and Suey Sing tongs, was expressed ' yesterday by Chinese in close touch '", with the situation. This view found ' ieupport yesterday when it was learned ; ' that certain leaders of the Bow Long tonga now are being guarded, as threats are said to have been made against their Jives. ;j This prediction of another tong war rivaled in dramatic possibilities the , near-clash in court yesterday between ; Ieputy District Attorney Collier and ;;; Robert Maguire, of counsel for the de ,j fondant Chinese, Arnrr Near Blows. :; Taking exception to a remark made ;ln court by Mr. Collier, Mr. Maguire -.Jumped to his f eet and advanced to il ward the Deputy District Attorney In a. ' j threatening manner. For a moment it 'appeared as though the men would ec e to blows, but Judge Gatens re Jetored order by commanding the bailiff ;to separate the men and compel them M to take their seats. ; I The cojrt threatened both with stiff i . fines for contempt if there was a repe 1 .' tition of verbal warfare between them j during the remainder of the trial. This fear of renewed tng hostilities :;was intensified late Wednesday night ;!with the arrest of Ah Lee. who is al ,', leged to be a gunman employed by the jlFuey Sing tons. According to the ,jBing Kung-Bow Leong members, there ;;are a. large number of gunmen now in Portland and a feeling of unrest ia evident in both the old and new Chl ; ' siese section. so inviting that there ia a dread of Its being generally copied and there is at least a tendency in that direction. In England a council of that sort was started at the las labor conference and the idea will perhaps take hold as a chance to bridge over the separa tion due to the war and have the pur poses of labor fully understood by the man in the trenches. The unionists both here and abroad have to look after the interests of the men in the field as well as of the man in the shops." Mr. Lewis is a prominent aOkland, Cal., attorney. He ia a profound stu dent of Russian problems and is c.on sidered an authority on his subject. He is the author of "The Rise of the Amer ican Proletariat."

Tf the tons war is started again It ;will be due to the fact that rival tong members are "testifying In the present ' cast against Gong Woo. When the .peace pact was signed a few months :,s:o at San Francisco it was especially j; agreed that no Chinese should testify ;in the murder trials where blanket in ydictments had been returned. If the Chinese' were compelled to testify, the ;pact stipulated that the witnesses must ;; modify their testimony as much as .-possible "to make it easy for ac 'quittal." ' The Hop and Suey Sing tongmen are -contending that the Bing Kungs are ,-not living up to thia agreement in that they are appearing against Gong - Woo and making no effort to assist ; him, as the peace pact etated they must do. It was also asserted about the court- room yesterday where the trial was in progress that a break between the Hop and Suey Sing tonga was almost pre i cipitated Wednesday night by a Suey ; Sing Chinese, who lost $100 in a Hop Sing gambling-house and then picked , up thw money on the table and ran. Trial Prortcdi Slawly. ,'i He was followed out of the place by ..punmen, it is alleged, who gave chase , -until he was lost in the dark. The in ' ident is said to have brought about ! strained relations between the allied tongs which almost resulted in break- : lng off diplomatic relations. The trial yesterday of Gong Woo ; proceeded slowly. For the most part. ; ;,xne state s testimony concerned the '-.etgning or the peace pact in San Fran J icisco recently. Lee Me Gin, president, and Sing Jew Hing, secretary, of the : Chinese Peace Society of Portland, fwere both brought in as witnesses and .-offered testimony concerning the peace negotiations. . ;: Deputy District Attorney Collier has ; 'a translation of the peace pact, which ',he will endeavor to have offered as Mevidence, but will meet with strong ob ; -jectlon on the part of the defendant's .attorneys. .- N'- U Z i' ' , r Fred B.

Emphasis Laid n Point That Wm Proerasajne Outlined by President Ia Generally Supported, United States' Senator Chamberlain, .chairman of the Senate committee on military affairs, reviewed the work of the recent Congress in an address charged .with patriotic sentiment at the weekly luncheon of the University Clab yesterday noon. The subject of hia talk was. "Some Phases of the Work of Congress." The luncheon was attended by 150 persons. "The President and his advisers ex hausted every resource in their efforts to keep the United States out of the world war without sacrificing our Na tional honor," said Senator Chamber lain, "but when forced into that con flict they spared no energy in prepar ing for an aggressive participation." Senator Chamberlain ' reviewed - the various measures of . war legislation, including the Army reorganization bill, the draft measure and the war revenue plan, and referred to the record time in which this legislation was enacted. He commented on the fact that with only a few notable exceptions the mem bers of Congress without regard to political parties joined with the Presi dent in carrying out his war pro gramme. . He gave a comprehensive re view of the, reorganization of the. Army and the Navy and the development of both branches of the country s agencies of defense into a formidable fighting force, and predicted that when placed n service each of these organizations would compare favorably with more seasoned troops. Austin Lewis, Student of Russian Prob lems, to Lecture on "The Sonlng," L at Lincoln Hisa School. ' The present difficulty In Russia arises from the fact that the middle- class has not taken the lead, according to Austin Lewis, who will lecture to night at the Lincoln High School auditorium. "In this respect," he says, "the Rus sian revolution differs from that In France, the one in Kngland, and in fact, from every revolution in the history of the world. It was born too late. As a result, the working class and the peas ants claim the fruits of the victory be cause thye won the victory. . It may be said, he continued, "that the middle class had not the power in Russia, Tha.t is true, but they had the opportunity, and they lost it. They might have' led in 1905 but shirked their job. "The present conditions in the coun try are not nearly so bad as pictured. There is a sort of international com. ppiracy on the part of high finance to discredit the results of the working class rising.

Annul Han Formerly Resided at Con don, Or., and Palled to Respond for Service In Army. W. K. James, self-confessed automo bile thief and father of the baby which has twice taken the blue ribbon as the perfect baby," may escape a felon's cell through the workings of the Fed eral conscription machinery, which recently caused him to be among the drafted men from Condon, Or.

CENTRALIA, Wash., Nov. 1. (Spe cial.) A fire of unknown origin early this morning destroyed the Central Hotel, Harris Hardware Store, the Ma sonic Hall and Fryou's barber shop In Tenino, entailing a loss of about $25,000. The fire was discovered at about 2:30 o'clock. The flames had gained good headway and the efforts of the fire fighters to check them were fruitless. Miss Stella Davis, an employe of the hotel, narrowly escaped Injury by leap ing from the second story of the atruc ture. The daily cares and worries of life In the big city were forgotten last night when one entered the Turnverein Hall Thirteenth and Jefferson streets, for the annual County Fair was in prog reBS. There was a regular country store and market-place, with real butter, eggs, cheese, potatoes, onions, hams, cider, vegetables and fruits and farm products of all kinds on display and for sale. But the country store was hut one of the rural attractions. There was an old-time saloon, wnicn brought fond memories to those who put one foot on the rail and used their imagination when Indulging in the soft drinks which were temptingly Ols- nlaved In rows and rows of bottles. This was under the vigilance of the county constabule, who seemed to have a hard time keeping track of everybody's business but his own. When one overstepped the boundary of the law he was taken before the an cient, long-whiskered Justice vof the peace, who administered the Tine ac cording to the seriousness of the mis demeanor. There was a postoffice conducted by the women of the Turnverein in charge of an Inquisitive postmistress, who kept track of all the mysterious pack ages and letters which were given for the price of the postage. Included in the sideshow attractions were a fortune-telling booth, a bowl ing alley, the Japanese rolling game and a booth where chances were taken to "hit the nigger baby." In another booth ice cream cones, homemade can dies, popcorn and peanuts were fp sale. There was a playground for the chll dren with a strawplle to burrow In and a shoot the chutes which had been es pec)ally constructed for the children but was patronized by some of the less dignified grownups. Space was reserved underneath the balcony, where real live pigs, a calf and some chickens and ducks took an active part In the noise and life of the fair. There will be an old-fashioned barn dance every night in which all of the patrons are invited to take part. There was good lively muslo by the rube band, which played old-fashioned airs ABERDEEN DECLARED LAX Council Says Police Are Not En forcing Prohibition law. ABERDEEN. Wash., Nov. 1. (Spe cial.)
