This' Afternoon. '
Th videuce In the Lem Woon high
binder case is In and the Question of
whether Lem is to hang for th mur
der or Lee Tai Hoi wUl b left to th
Jury soma tlm this afternoon.
This morning's testimony was for th
most part unimportant and was mainly
an attempt by the defense to show that
dying statements by Chines are not to
be believed and that the victim of th
highbinders, when dying, had acoused
the defendant of his murder through
motives of revenge, merely. .
To further this, Jo Bong, who was ar
rested with Lem Woon, and who was
Originally charged with th murder to
gether with th other defendants, was
placed on the stand. Jo had trouble
with th interpreters and it took half
an hour and th combined efforts of
three of them to got him to state wheth
er or not he had cooked any rice after
hearing the shots at Fourth and Pin.
He testified that be had heard th
shots, and becom soared and therefor
ran horn to the tong headquarters at
Beeond and Oak streets and locked th
doors, lie said he had not heard th
ofTioers knock as he was chopping wood.
Th rice question was not important,
but Jo would not answer it for some
reason. He simply said he had not
cooked any rice. He did not know why
he had hid in th closet when he heard
the officers coming, and when Mr. Ma
larkey held the big .38 Colt that was
found in the closet in his face and asked
him if it was his. Jo looked the other
way and denied any knowledge of It

and told of th family of th Lima.
He said that dvlna statements wer no

defendant, Lem Woon, was a member
of Llm's family society and had never
been called Lem Moon to his knowledge,
but was always known as Lum Suey.
Ham Antye or Ban Francisco, ins ae
fense's Interpreter, was called and told
th sam story about dying statements.
H explained under cross-examination
that he had com up at th request of
the Chinaman who is conducting the
defense the blue-Jacketed, bald-headed

if he and his bald-headed friend had
not cooked up many Jobs of this kind
together, Mr. Logan interfered and said
that the question was insulting.
That started th two leading attor
