SHAUKIWAN RAIDS.

SERIOUS CHARGES AGAINST CHINESE REVENUE MEN

The case against four Chinese Revenue Officers, who are charged with stealing and demandlög money with menaces from the occupants of two huts at Shaukiwan and Tahlian Bay which they raided, it is stated without proper authority, in the early morning of December 29, was continued before Mr. Hamilton at the Central Magistracy yesterday afternoon.

Chung Kwan, the occupant of the Arst hut, said that when the men entered his place, they took $10 from him, after going through the process of a search for what he understood to be contraband opium. They then led him in handcuffs to a waiting car, and drove away with him to the hut at Taaiwan.

Cross-examined, witness was un- able to say whether the European Officer who accompanied the Chineso R.O.'s saw the theft.It was the. second accused who put the hand- cuffs on him.

At the accond hut, he saw Chung Tuen, the tenant, being surrounded

at one time by the four Chinese Re- venue Officers. They were not sa closely grouped around Chung Tuen that he could not see the Intter being searched and money taken, from him. The money was placed on n table and all four men grabbed their portion.

Replying to a question, witness admitted that he had lost his nervo through being beaten all the way to the hut. Consequently he re- frained from informing the Euro- pean Officer of what he saw.

"

Opium Pol Found. --

Chung Tuen, the owner of the lut at Taiwan," stated that on De- cember 29, in the early morn ing, hearing a loud knock, he open ed the door and admitted men whont he identified as the first three ac cused. A European officer also came in.

They stated they wanted to make a search, and leaving the European on the ground floor, the Chinese. K.O.'s proceeded with witness up into the cockloft. Searching the place, they discovered the empty pot of opium exhibited in the Court, and demanded a thousand dollars of witness. He said he had not that amount, whereupon they hinted they would be satisfied with $200. He replied that he had not even that amount but mentioned that there was a possibility' of raining between $40 and $50 on the morrow. The third accused then threatened him with arrest..

A move was made into the ground floor, where, for the first time, wit ness saw the second accused. Hu was bringing into the hut a mun in landeua whom he identified as Chung Kwan the owner of the other hut. The, European officer who had remained behind on the ground floor while they were in the cockloft, was now asked to go up to the cockloft. In his absence," all four accused, then proceded to search his person, taking from him a sum of $47 made up of certain notes and silver dollars which wit ness detailed to the Court. The whole party inter left the hut, the European officer bidding him "good morning" as he went away.

Replying to a qudation by Mr. Fitzroy, witness said he was given to understand that the search was for contraband opium, and the rea- son why he was willing to pay money to the accused was because he had an opium pipe in the hut which he sometimes used "on te- ciunt of ill-healtir,”

The case was adjourned.
