afternoon to .secure the release of "Moy
Ton Chew, the . Chicago Chinese ac
cused of the murder of one of his
countrymen In that city. The effort
to have Judge Cleland fix ball, or di
rect that ball be allowed, was also
unsuccessful and the accused man
will be held until a Chlcaao officer
arrives with extradition papers.
Moy attorneys maae tne unusual
plea that their client is anxious to face
his accusers, but as he is -a wealthy
merchant, does not want to suffer the
Ignominy of being taken back by an
officer. - They said that If given the
opportunity Moy would gladly pay his
own way and hasten back to Chicago
to answer the charge or murder.
Judge CieiaiRK declined to -offer any
advice lrt-tmit regaxd, as ne had only
to deal with the suestlon presented
under the habeas 'corpus writ. After
tha writ was issued a warrant charg.
