Finally a Sen Suey Ying man drew a revolver and ordered the disturbers away from the house When he heard the latters' refusal he fired a =hot In their -direction and the throng scampered from the door. Yesterday the gambling house row was ihe main topic of conversation in Chinese circles.

Once outside the factio locked horns and weapons flashed from blouses and hip pockets, Ma Ching Ong, a notorious gunman of |the Hop Sing Tong, ‘Who was released frem San Quentin but one year ago for | the murder of Lee Sing at the corner of | Sullivan alley and Jackson street, in 1899, | opened fire on one of his adversarie: | The shooting became general in an in- stant.

Like a flash the news of the bloody | battle spread throughout Chinatown, | Members of the warring factions, fearing | for their lives, sought shelter, and those | who were without the realm of strife | gathered on the streets discussing the af- | fair and awaiting developments. It was | Just forty e minutes later when their xpectations were justified. A shot sound- ed in front of 108 Waverly place. When the hastening mob of Chinese and the police reached the place they found that Ong Chung, a barber residing at that address, had been shot while shaving a customer, Ong's story is to the effect that he was busy with his razor when he heard the report of a pistol, and at the same moment felt a sharp pain in his shoulder. Turning, he saw the would-be murderer rush across the street and make his escape. Ong Chung's Injury was considered serious and the ambulance was | called for another trip to Chinatown. | When the doctors arrived they found that | the bullet had severed an artery and that | the patient was in danger of losing his | life from the loss of blood. At the hospi- tal it was necessary to adminiseer power- ful restoratives in order to sustain the feeble action of the heart. | The pistol from which the shot was | fired was found in the entrance of a pawnshop at the corner of Clay street and Waverly place. Immediately officers <. | @ short time returned with Gee Kong, manacled and scowling. Wong Beak Fook, suspected of having participated in the affair, was also taken into custody. He was in the barber shop when the police arrived there Gee Kong in makipg his retreat from the scene of his crime ran down Waverly place into Clay street, thence to Spofford alley. He dashed through a doorway, chimbed a fiight of stairs and was found by Sergeant Cook and Officers Connolly and Keys hiding in a dark corner. Ong Chung, who was shot in the sec- ond affray, was a member of the Sen Suey Ying Tong. Thus the Tong retaliated for the wounding of its star gunman, Ma Ching Ong. LOOKING FOR REVENGE. But revenge in the shooting of one man was not sufficient. Other highbinders, the promise of a large reward as an in- centive to do murder, lurked in doorways and slunk along the streets in quest of victims. At the same time the desire for revenge burned in the hearts of the foe | and its pald assassins loitered about on | the same errand of crime. Finally opportunity for battle cam The factions sighted each other in Ros: alley. The Hop Sing men entered from one end and the Sen Suey Ying men from the other. Guns were pulled, and bul- lets whizzed before several white spec- tators, unconscious of the impending strife, had an opportunity to sechude themselves in doorways. In the narrow passageway, overhung hy balconies. and lights, war raged. There was no escape. Rach of the participants stood his ground and fired until the cham- bers of his gun were empty. But when the smoke had cleared away and the shooters had fled little evidence of their dastardly Hop Sing | MONDAY, JANUARY 19 19Us.
