The trial will be resumed and possibly
: concluded to-night in the comfortable

When urged to tell what he had done for

when he nad taken the iroop in hand
there were fifty-lour men. forty of whom
lie bad to dismi-s for inccmpetei.cy dur
ine the year and till their places by a like
number. He had obtained th* hordes do
nated to t: c troop by m»n in different parts
of tboStat'. He had posted himself on
feed and stable requirements by inquiring
of the troop cantainat the Presidio, and of
liverymen in the cuy.
He had also peisonally secured nine
honorary members of the troop who wonl.i
pay $50 each a year, and thus h-ip to
support the horses for whose fecu and
cart- the State made no adequate provision.
He had never belore this unfortunate
time ever permitted his own or the troop
horse* to lose a meal. He was ignorant
of their distress, and finally he was peni

A TRANSFER OF TROOPS.
Company C, First U, S, In
fantry, Ordered From Benicia
to the Presidio.
A Battery Will Go Prom Anerel Island
to San Diego and Believe an
Infantry Company.
General Shafter, U. £. A., commanding
the Department of California, has issued
an crder directing Company C of the First
United Slates Infantry, now at Benicia
Barracks, to take station al thf l'r -*idio.
T::e company, which is communa<>d by
First Lieuten nt F. O. Ferris and Second
L eutenant F. M. Wiicox, will come to
this post next Saturday.
It is probable, In tne near future, that a
battery of the Third Art.liery stationed at
Ansrel Island will be ordered to San Diego,
relifcv.ng the company of t::e Fir.st In
fantry siationed there. This com pany o!
infantry, commanded by Captain L. O.
Parker and Lieutenant Denis Noble, will
take station in the harbor uf San b"ran-
C:.-CO.
Concerning the movement of reeiments
the iniormation comes trom an offt<er of
the arrnv who is very close to the Secre
tary of War that the First Infantry will
remain at the Pres dio until next spring
and perhaps longer. The money at the
cisposal of the department will not allow
a lar^e expenditure for transfer of regi

THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 1897.
CHOW KUNG SANG
WILL NOT DIE
Despite of Thirteen Knife-
Wounds the Chinese
Pn'est Will Recover.
His Friends Say That Robbery
Was Not the Motive of
the Crime.
Other WarniEgs Have Been Sent
Out and More Murders Are
Expected.
It Chinese detective work is able *o ac
complish anything the assailant of the
priest in the Stockton-street Josshouse
will be run to earth. Whether American
justice will be nieteil out to him or no 1 . Is
another question. Every effort is beinc
put fur v by the other priests in that tem
ple to find the man, and late yesterday
aUernoon thay claimed to have found a
c-ew which they thought, would lead to
his identitication.
Snould the murderous robber be dis
covered by tne men who are searching for
I him there is no question regarding what
j w ill be done with him, and so far as pun
i ishment is cone rned neither the State nor
the city and county of SanFrancisC'i will be
under expense. Ihe wortui^s of Chinese
] justice in that part of the kingdom of
' China is under the same laws as are in
j vosue across the .Pacific, and m cases of
I this Ui i I executions lollow crimes with
out American legal intervention.
Chow Kun. 1 Sana was resting easily last
! night and bis puvsictan said that lie
j nouid recover. Ho rece.ved thirteen
I wounds, ai of them in the legs, arms Ji':<i
j shouilir-, exceit two, one in the ieit side
I and une in the lei t t mp.e. The only dan
ger ptTflieniled i^ from the wound in the
side, winch penetrated into : c cavity of
the übiotuea and .may result in per
i itonitis.
The j.rlest >aid there were two men in
his room. As they caipo tiirouirh \\\
win iow one called ou: "Kill him, kill
hiui !" No money was stolen and ivb;.ery
was not the C'Use oi the attack, for all
that was taken was the clothing mat the
priest wore during the day and an ouiuin
pipe. The pips wa-s pawned Monday
allern^on m a shop on liartlett alley, but
the owner o! the shop says he did not
know the man and toat he could not
recognize him if he sa<v htm atra.n. As
tli" man was masked by having a band*
kerchiet over the lower i>art of the faC'-'
when he m.ide the attack, the prirstsaye
lie coul t not identify htm even if he
should »•»•> him.
Cb<>w Kirn Sang is a young man, being
about 35 years old, but he is considered
the best priest in the city. Tins honor
belonged to an uncle who left for China
several years a-.ro, and whoa* mint c fell
upon the shoulders of his nephew. He
is from the coolie cl&*s and c.ime to this
city irum Sun Jose. At thai city ht> had
troub c with members of the Ch:n ianiily,
and .t resulted in tw i of them being sent
to tne penitentiary. It is believed that
the attack was instigated by this family in
reven *.
The priest owns a slave eirl i:i a house
of ill fame on Washington street, and she
says tnat he had po enemie-', as tie was a
very gO I man and always ttieci so help
poor ; .oople. A.* the pries; belonged to
the Sre Yu|» As=uo ation, ttip member! of
that or amzatn n are deeply interested in
running down the murdTer, and tliey say
that if they ca;c:i him the matter will be
attended to without, the intervention of
thr po-nce.
When ihe attack was made on Chow he
crieJ lustily lor help, but tiie o;her priests
in the house were afraid to stir Irorn their
ro' nis and kept qu.et until tl ey heard the
u-.-rtilunts leaving. It was Known to the
inmates of tne hous that threat! had
heen made against Chow, and when the
cries were ht-ara the others were terrorized
and say they knew that f they nad cone
to his rescue they, too, would have
suffered.
Several warnings have been sent out in
the last, few day* and there is an air of
uneasine"-* prevailing amon^ the See
Yup«. Four days ago Chi.i Foiil-, a nier
cuant, received a warning from a friend,
who tola him to be very careful and watch
out, as he w.is marked lor death. \\'!ie:i
his informant was questioned he said that
no questions were to he asked, but Chin
Fong was to be very careful.
LINCOLN'S MONUMENT.
The Project Is Likely to Prosper In
Wise iiii!i<lft.
The trustees for the Lincoln Monument
League met ve-sterday afternoon in the
•jllice of the Mayor for tne purpose of or
gan zing the boarl. There were present:
Major Phelafi, Horace Davis, M. M. Es
tee. Colonel C. Mason Kinne and VV. W.
Stone.
Mr. E tee explained in full the scope of
the board, asserting that the money de
posited with the trustees by iha league
was a reserve fund, placed under I lie abso
lute control of the trustees. On motion of
Mr. Davic, Hon. James I). Pheian w.is
elected president of ihe Ooard and W. W.
.> i.nr secretary.
It was ''.ecided to deposit $1000 in the
Hiberuia Bank on Derruanent deposit;
also fluOQ in ihe Union Savings. Mr.
Pbelan thought it best to publisn the fact
that hereafter any one wishing to con
tribute any considerable sum should do
■o by remittance by check to the BanK oi
Ca.ifornia.
Some dUcu^sion was had a3 to the ad
visability of asking lor contributions from
c.tiz'tis, but t c general ODinion se'-med
to be that it would be advisable to make
no lorraai canva s unii Lincoln day,
which comes on February 12 of next year.
Tne Jcacrue has word from tifieen slates
of the Union promising to co-operate,
hence it is b-lieved that at that time col
leciois would find people ready to con
l; ionic liberully.

< !i iin;i-.: Owners.
Jim Edmonds a popu.ar leashman,
states that Miaimo, the winner of the In

risrhtiully his property, and that D. J.
Healey uf P tilurna had no lega . r gIH to
sell th« dog to iv present owners, Grace &
Dean .
*'I gave Miiilmo to Heaiey to raise for
me," said Edmonds, "«nd tho first thing
I knew Healev sold the dog- I allow that
I owed liealey fir the doc's board and
keeping, and wouhi have paid him had
i c informed me that he intended to sell
him. Bui the bale was transacted with
out, my knowledge. I do not know just
now what action I will take tar redress.
"I heard to-d^y that Healey purchased
Rusty Gold, the runner-up, from Mr.
Donohue, the Cripple Creek (Colo. ) lea9h
man, for $200 Ttiis sum, added to the
>econd prize, $430, will helps ell the ex

Edmonds is of the opinion that Knsty
Gold will be retained as a stud dog, as he
is from high-class stock.
In yesterday's report of the Ingleside
cour-«int: me- ting Minneh ha li^ured as
the winner of the plate, She was tne run

SALOONS AND POLICE.
Municipal Lawmaker* Wrestle With
Thin Problem for Unurt.
The committee of one hundred intrusted
with the framing of a charter labored for
two hours ant a half last night over the
I' 1 ■■•• Department and the retail liquor
traffic.
The Police Commissioners were fixed at
four in number, to be appointed by the
Mayor, with a term of four years' service,
during which and for one year thereafter
they shall be ineligible for any political
office.
The number of police officers was fixed
at a ratio of one to every 690 inhabitant.".
The word "detective" was sincken out
and "Inspector of Polica" substituted
therefor.
C'nupter 11, which is intended to reeu
late the saloon business, resoived itself
into a debating issue, in which tbe c mi
ni v tee traversed ail of the many evils
arising from the presence of objectionable
places where liquors arc sold under the
present law.
To remedy this, it is intended to em
body in the proposed charter the right of
at least <>0 per cent of the property-owners
on t c block the right to* object to a
saloon or saloons on the block, irre
spective of the action of the Police Com
missioner?.
The debate on this question took a wi ie
range, with diversified idens as how best
to regulate the traffic without affecim,- the
standing oi the reputab c saloons in the
city.
As a balm for the evil the whole subject
matter was referred to the sub-corn mi t:ee
to be straightened out for to-morrow eve
ning's session.
