Bpecial Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, July 12—The funeral today of Dr. Fong Foo Leung put Chinatown in mourning—the China- town that he transformed from a lace of sinister intrigue and murder and battle between the warring tongs into one of the safest and most tran- quil spots in all New York. Dr. Leung is credited with principal responsibii- ity for ending the wars between the On Leong Tong, the Hip Sing Tong and the Four Brothers. Many China- men aver that long ago he should have been awarded a Nobel peace prize. Throngs of summer tourists were in Chinatown today. They went to see the bloody angle of Doyers street. Perhaps they were disappointed, be- cause the bloody angle, once the most dangerous place and the scene of more murders than any other district of equal area in the metropolis, is bloody no longer. It is nothing row but an unsightly bend in a crooked little street. past. Doyers Street Battlegro But the tourist Leung’s greatest activity, saw other things. In the days when Mock Duck owned the big fan tan and pi gow joints and was a ruling power in Chinatown, when Tom Lee walked abroad and exercised his authority as “mayor” only when attended by a heavy armed escort of hatchet men, when Chuck Connors was “king” of the Lobby Gows and when ‘the fumes of burning opium filtered to the street from the cellars and dismal subter- ranean passages—in those d. Doy- ers street no man’s land. It was there that the hatchet men of the Its thrills are of the Hip Sings met the killers of the On|% Leongs and the Four Brothers. For a Chinaman of any tong to be in Doy- ers street meant shootings and stab- bings, followed by feasts of rice cakes and shark fins in the headquarters of the victorious society. And at the bend in the street, at the point about half-way its length, where, coming from Chatham Square, it curves sharply to the right and {heads toward Pell street—that was ilhe “bloody angle,” with its oppor- tunities for concealment and escape and its long history of “friendly af- fairs” which the white devils, in their ignorance, called murder. Greatest Chamge in 20 Years. But at the old joss house even vet ancient Chinamen sit before fuming incenge burners and invoke the be- nign attentions of their ancestors and the bounty of the 8even Gods of Luck. No place in New York has changed more in twenty vears than Doyers xtreet. Only a few years ago its cob- ble-paved roadway echoed to the goft passing of sandal-shod feet, some- times the crack of pistols and the thud of falling bodies. Now they echn to stout American shoes, and the dirty stones that then were spotted with rcddish stains now are cleaned twice dally by prosaic white wings. When Chinatown was indeed Chinatown the bloody angle was dark and sinister; {now it is brilllant with the light from | the Morning Star Mission. next door to the old Arcade and the ancient Chinese theater. It was in the latter that the emi- ‘L‘h(ntu way. But now instead guttural Chinese there comes the strains of “Nearer, My God. fo Thee,” and similar mission hymns, because the old theater now is a’ mission and the faithful sit. on the same littic old red benches and stare at the same paintings on the wall, with their gor- gcous patches of color, which were the most interesting of the sights in the days now gone. There is little for the tourist to see in Chinatown now. but much can be felt of the romance and murder that were its chief attraction a couple | of decades ago. (Copyright. 1922.) !
