The aim of the Celestial was poor, but two of the shots laking effect, one pen- etrating . his hip and the other striking him on the kneecap The shooting is the result of the war that has b waged for the last six months in San Jose and is regarded as the forerunner of many more desperate affrays in the Chinese quarter of this city. The trouble among Chinese in San Jose and is due to quarrels over Chinese girls. The Celes- tials of the Garden City are in direct touch with the highbinders of San Fran- cisco, and it is not a difficult matter to trace.the shooting of this morning to a desire of the members of the tongs to | carry on the warfare in this city. The agents of the rival tongs mat in thig clty a week ago and practically ag to transfer the scene of strife to the larger field presented by San Francisco’s Chi- nese quarter. Soon after the shooting Look On was taken to the Recelving Hospital.

PIPER'S ASSAILANTS CONVICTED OXF BATTERY Action of William Woenne and John Penn Characterized as Out« rageous. Willlam Woenne and John Penn, the last named colored, were convicted of battery by Judge Conlan yesterday and were or- dered to appear for sentence this morn- ing. They were convicted of brutally as- saulting_Mrs. Harry Piper at her resi- dence, 28 Birch avenue, on Saturday, March 2, while forcefully removing her plano because she was in arrears on pay- ments to the Heine Piano Company. Mrs. Piper testified that Woenna #truck hér under the left breast twice and while she was sitting on the doorstep in a semi- consclous condition Kkicked her in the back. She was still suffering from the blows, she said. Dr. 8. W. Truitt testified to having ex- amined Mrs, Piper and finding bruises on her left side and back. The defenge attempted to show that Mrs. Piper commenced the attack by slap- | ping Woenne on the face and attempting to strike him with a baby’s chair. Woenna made the assertion, but he received no corroboration from either Penn or Charles Cooper, another colored man, who was a co-defendant. The Jud#e dismissed the charge against Cooper, and in eonvicting Woenne and Penn characterized their action as out- ageous and cowardly in the extreme.
