CHINESE WAGE GUH
BATTLE IN STREET
iTen Shots Fired by Four
Asiatics Indicate Tong
War Has Revived.
ONE OF FIGHTERS CAUGHT
Scene of Fray Is In Front of Store
"Where Jim "Wong Wu Stabbed
. Last Week -Police Take
' Steps to Quiet Factions.
' The tons war which has slumbered
In Portland for a week broke out afresh
last night in a revolver battle between
two Suey Sing-and two Hop Sing tons
gunmen on Flanders street between
1'ourth and Fifth streets. Ten shots
were fired in rapid succession, but, so
far as could be learned only one took
effect, hitting an unnamed. Suey Sins,
who was later spirited away, in the
leg.
Last night's shooting was a fresh
outbreak of the war which started be
tween the tones when Jim Wonr, a
wealthy Chinese merchant and member
of the Hop Sings, was stabbed in the
back by a Suey Sing highbinder named
Lum Chong Tins:, alias Lim Tong.
Julian Alabera, half Chinese ' and
rialf Filipino, and a member of the
Puey Sings, was arrested by Sergeant
Oelaner and Patrolmen Collins and
Madden a few minutes after the shoot
Jng. He carried a revolver in the
chambers of which were four empty
shells.
Officers Martin and Wise later ar
rested Chan Wing a Hop Sing, who
Iwas carrying a big gun.
, The shooting took place on Flanders
Ptreet, just in front of the store at 263
I- landers, where Jim Wong was stabbed.
Bergeant Oelsner and the two patrol
men were only a block away on
Fourth street. At the time the shoot
ing took place the Peace Society was
meeting in an effort to prevent a tong
war. They had Just reached a treaty
agreement by which the Suey Sings
were to pay the Hop Sings J100, in re
turn for which the Hop Sings were to
drop charges against Lum Ching Ying.
Six Celestials Involved.
Chinese witnesses and one of the men
under arrest say four Hop Stag and
two Suey bing gunmen were involved
in the fight. The battle began without
warning, was over in an instant, and
Chinatown was suddenly changed from
a peaceful community to a seething
mass of wildly excited Celestials. -
The ten shots were fired quickly.
"When the shooting began Flanders
street was almost deserted. Sergeant
Oelsner and Patrolmen Collins and
"Madden were on the scene almost as
soon as the last shot was fired.. Sev
eral Chinese were seen, scurrying to
cover as the police ran to the battle
ground. Immediately doors and win
dows were opened and a horde of Orl
entals ran out to the streets. The
policemen found themselves in the
midst of an excite-, jabbering, shout- j
ing crowd of 300 Chinese. The gun
men were lost In the crowd.
Another squad of police. Captain of
Detectives Baty and Detectives Swen
nes, Moloney, Hyde and Howell rushed
to the scene, searched all the Chinese
stores ih the neighborhood,, ransacked
the Hop Sing and Suey Sing headquar
ters and questioned every Celestial who
acted suspiciously. -
One Found la Hiding:.
Julian Alabera had hidden in a Chi
nese restaurant on Fifth street. There
Oelsner, Collins and Madden found him
and took him to headquarters. He ad
mitted his part in the shooting, but
steadfastly refused to give any infor
mation about the other five known to
have been involved. He also admitted,
the detectives say, that he came here
from Seattle for the Suey Sings at the
same time as did Lum Chonsr Ying, the
ether Asiatio now under arrest.
Alabera merely said that he, with
another Suey Sing gunman, had en
countered four Hop Sings on the street
and the shooting had started. A per
sistent rumor among the Chinese said
that two of the Hop Sing highbinders
had been hit by the bullets and that
they - had been spirited away in the
crowd which gathered as though by
preconcerted arrangement. A thorough
nearch of the Chinese quarter, however.
failed to uncover any wounded Orien
tal.
Police Warn Chinese.
Chief of Police Clark and Captain
Baty told the Chinese that a' further
outbreak would be met with drastic
measures. All Chinese are being
watched closely, and any found carry
ing revolvers will be arrested as gun
ien.
That the gunmen are using dum-dnm
bullets in their revolvers in the present
war is the belief of Detectives Swennes
end Moloney, who arrested Lum Chong
Ying in Vancouver last week, and who
searched Alabera last night. The two
loaded shells still in the chambers of
Alabera's revolver contained bullets of
the dum-dum or "mushroom" variety.
Detectives and police could get little
Information from the Chinese last night.
Tong leaders and leading Chinese mer
chants scurried about, endeavoring, they
said, to patch up the quarrel. President
Lee Mee Gin and Secretary Lee Hong,
of the Chinese General Peace Society.
attempted to call a conference of tong
leaders last night, but the result was
rot learned.
Fighting; South Reported.
The Chinese quarter was further per
turbed by the receipt 6t several tele
grams, which, Chinese said, told of sim
liar outbreaks between the Suey Sings
and Hop Sings in Stockton and San
Francisco. According to the lnforma
tlon that could be gleaned from the
Chinese, these telegrams told of severe
fighting, especially in Stockton.
The nresent tone- war. which, ft Is
said, is being wagd over the entire
Coast, broke out first a week ago last
night with the stabbing of Jim Wong.
The following day the differences were
patched up with the aid of the Peac
Society, when it was found that Wong
Injuries were not serious.
Further trouble was predicted Mon
lay, however, when Detectives Swennes
and Maloney went to Vancouver an
arrested Lum Chong Ying, who did th
stabbing, and who had escaped from
Portland in a taxlcab.
Detectives believe the taxicab meth
od of escaping may have been used by
the gunmen last night. An extraor
dinary -number of calls for taxicab
came from the Chinese quarter soon
after the shooting. As soon as thi
was observed, every taxicab was fol
lowed, but up to a late hour last night
no further arrests had been made. r
SAX -KRAXCISCO TOXGS WAR
Three Chinese Hit by Bullets in Bat
tle in. Streets. '
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 14. Gun play,
one of the traditions of the dark and
devious alleys of Chinatown which
have made it an ever source of mys
tery and romance to the tourist, broke
out again tonight in the Oriental quar
ter of the city. Three men were hit by
flying bullets, and one of them may die.
The most seriously injured is Wong
Shen, who was wounded by three bul
lets. The innocent bystander, in the
person of Lee Chong, was shot in the
back, but will not die. Fong Tong was
hit a glancing blow on the head by a
bullet. Which took his hat off and
caused a scalp wound.
Wong Wan was arrested by detec
tives, and identified by Fong Tong as
one of the men who did the shooting.
wo others whose names the police
have are being sought.
The shooting is said to mark the out
break of a tong war, which is said
to have started in Portland last
week. Wong Shen is said to be a mem
ber of the notorious Suey Sing tong, as
Fong Tong, while Wong Wah and
the twt who are being sought are said
to belong to the Sun Suey Ying tong.
Two alleged members of the Sun Suey
Yings were arrested tonight for carry
ing concealed weapons.
An ancient fued between the Suey
Sings and th H-tp Sings has been re
vived, and awtace conference between
older members of these tongs was be
ing held at the time the shooting oc
curred. Later a telegram from Stock
ton warned the peace conferees to be
on the lookout for trouble.

Effect of Imperial Presence
Peasant Soldiers Is Xotlceably '
to Hasten . Their .Recovery.
Czar Visits Regularly.
PETROGRAD, Oct. 28. (Correspond
ence of The Associated Press.) Al
most in the shadow of the imperial
palace In Tzarskoye Selo, the Winter
home of Emperor Nicholas, there is a
low building half hidden behind villas
which Is perhaps the most remarkable
hospital improvised during the present
war. 1
The hospital is supported by fund
at the disposal of the minister of ti
imperial court. At the special request
of the Empress, a part, of the building
has been set aside as the court Cos
pitai, where the impress and her two
eldest daughters, the Grand Duchesses
Olga and Tatlana, work among the
other Red Cross nurses from 10 o'clock
every morning until late in the after
noon.
Empress la Head Kma
There is nothing either in the nature
of their work or in the appearance of
their gray gingham uniforms and white
nun-like hoods to distinguish them from
the others. Their rank is not made the
excuse for any escape or respite from
the hardships or unpleasantness of the
daily routine. At all the most difficult
operations Her Majesty acts as head
nurse, handing the operating surgeon
his instruments, while the -two Grand
Duchesses pass the necessary cloths
and bandages.
The effect of this imperial presence
on the simple peasant mind cannot be
fully appreciated without' unilentanii
ing the religious awe which the peas
ant reels towarl the Imperial family,
Recovery la Hastened.
This semi-religious exaltation of the
wounded soldiers has, according to the
surgeons in the hospital.' noticeably
naBtened weir return, to health.
Once a week the Emperor visits the
hospital with his young son and his
two youngest daughters. Marie and
Anastasia. During these visits it Is his
custom to make the rounds of tht 121
beds for privates and 29 for officers
and" to question the men as to how they
receivea tneir wounds.
All the hospitals in Tsarskoe-Selo
and Pavlosk are under the patronage
of tne impress and the wounded are
conveyed from the hospital trains in
the automobiles of the imperial garage.
