Sing, but enclosed' In another envelope, and re-addressed, ' was , received by Chinese Inspector Barbour. While the letter to the Chinaman, was sealed, it bore plain evidence' of having been tampered with, and as the whole affair was clouded in my&tery, Inspector Barbour forwarded the- letter td Secretary Cortejyou of the department of commerce "and labor at Washington. . - . . '' Interospted Host-Promptly. The .letter was mailed Monday, Nov ember 23, at Vancouver, B. C. Tuesday it was postmarked received at the Port land offlue, Wednesday it was re-malled, and -was reef ived at the-office of In spector Barbour. Across ths. envelope was written in hgllBh,; "Hlue On Song Shau,.! 39 Second, street. Portland, Ore gon."v The address given is a clu house, and in an iron mall box 1n the hell, was left . toy a, carrier. -; Written diagonally across the left end of the en velope was the T following address in Chinese: "Important letter. Ploase de liver On Ming tc Co., 66 Second street, enclosure of Chin Bow Sing." In the upper left corner, in place of the usual return card, a rubber stamp was printed, "Shee Lee Wo, Chinese Merchandise, 34 Dupont street Vancouver, B. C" . The last seen of the letter, until It was received, at the custom house,, was by carrier No. 28. Who put It in the mall box of the Hlue On Song Shau, at 189 Second street . The1 managers of the club dis claim knowledge of the letter, and it is asserted also-that it-never reached On Hing &Co., 66 Second street The sup position of Inspector Barbour la that it fell ' into 'the hands 'of en enemy of Chin's, who opened it. arid finding that It - contained damaging , disclosures, mailed it to the Chinese inspector. On Hlng & Co. is a Chinese store operated by Chin Dong, a cousin of Chin Bow Sing.1 Chin Mon Sic, another cousin. Is in charge of the store of Shee Let Wo, 34 Dupont street,' Vancouver, Chin Bow ginft Stors. . ' Chin Bow Sing, according to. his at torney, Charles F. Lord,, however, dis claims responsibility regarding the con tents of thr letter, and declares it to be a forgery and a conspiracy to deprive blm of his liberty. He declares that the letter was either written or inspired by an enemy, and that hi4 ousin's- return stamp was borrowed and used on the envelope to further the belief that his cousin was the writer of the letter. In proof of thiscontention, he points out that the letter must have been inter cepted and re-mailed almost as soon as it reached Portland. Inspector Barbour while inclining to the belief that Chin Mon 81c wrote the letter, admits, how ever, that the promptness with which the interception was made would tend to Indicate a plot While he suspected that the contents of the letter would incriminate' Chin Bow Sing, he of course could hot open the letter, so. sent it ta Washington, where it will probably be opened. ;- . . .- Attorney Dtmaads X,etr. : While the whole affair is creating a furore in Chinatown, the.Jetter itself is causing something of a disturbance In official circles. " The same day Inspector Barbour received the letter, he sent word to On Hing & CO. requesting that Chin Bow Sing call at the office, Two days .later, November 2?,' Attorney Charles Lord called, and stating that he repre sented the Chinaman, demanded posses slon of the letter. ; - The demand was re fused, but It was later agreed that Mr. Lord should bring his client for the let. ter Saturday afternoon. . -. About' this tlnie Inspector Barbour became suspicious , that the' letter con tained damaging information and did not wait for Chin to appear at hi office thfi next afternoon. That same night with a Chinese interpreter, he scoured Chinatown in, tha hope, apparently,- that he himself might locate Chin and by demanding to see the contents of the let ter, learn if his suspicions were well founded. , . ; : - ,, . , ' y , This apparently frightened Chin, and he refused to go to the inspector's office at all. Next day he did not appear, ac cording to tl .engagement but Satur day. Attorney Lord appeared and again demapded that the letter be turned over to him, or -placed in she postofflce that it might- take - the proper, channels - of delivery. . Inspector Barbour again re fused " to- comply ''With jthe" demand, and forwarded the letter -t -Secretary Col telyou. A t torney '. .

Hops of MltchtU Followers. The .Mitchell faction bases its hopes of victory, first, upon-the good record made by the present county officials,- with the exception, of course, of the sheriff, and second upon the .possession of the local organisation. The manner In which the affairs of the county have been, conducted by the present officials is- of course an argument that will carry much weight. . Many reforms and economics have been effected and, many abuses have been stopped. Outside of the sheriffs office. there is little or none of the grafting formerly so prevalent County Judge Webster has been the leading spirit in this work of reform, and If. he is able to carry out to its: conclusion the policy ; which be has inaugurated, ths county will be out of debt' when his -term expires in 1906. County Clerk Fields has also made a record which will commend, him to the voters. The expenses of his office have been' greatly reduced, the receipts have increased ' and -'businesslike methods have been introduced.
