Show MURDERED BY HIGHBINDERS. A Chinese Doctor Is AVuntonly Slaughtered by Fiends. Sax rRANCi.ro, Feb. ft. Dr. Chuey Sue Tee, a Chinese physician, well kuowu and respected, died early yesterday morning from a wound inflected on him by two Chinese Chi-nese highbinders ou Saturday evening. Tho murder was extraordinarily wanton and uu-provoked, uu-provoked, even for Chinatown. The. old doc. tor was cooking his dinner in the rear of tha hallway of his house ou Uupont street, i when the Chinese entered and committed nuisance. The doctor requested them to ' stop, when, without a word, one of them drew a pistol and shot Yee in the abdomen. The second shot missed, and the assassins fled and have not been captured. Usually the Chinese murdered here are members of one or other of the warring societies, but Dr. Yee does not belong to any of these. It is thought possible that the six com. panics will take the matter UP and hand over the murderers to justice. Otherwise Other-wise the chances for capturing them are very slight. |
