COLLIER's FEARS.
A Sensational Story by a Well Known
Chicagoan.

CHICAGO, H., June 24-Frank Collier,
the well known Chicago lawyer, who, as a
special delegate of the various British
American societies, journeyed to England
and presented to Queen Victoria the feiici-
tations of her former Chicago subjects on
her jubilee, told strange story tonight In
narrating his recent experiences.
Mr.. Collier was today released from the
state insane asylum, where, he de
clares there was conspiracy to
keep him. The release was after an
extended examination in court, which was
conducted with decided skill by Mr.. Collier
in person and in which dozens of prom
inent people, lawyers, physicians, school
teachers, judges and others testified that
in their opinion he was not insane. Mr..
Collier stated that for a time he had been
demented, but that he had long since re-
covered After his formal release, Mr..
Collier, in conversation, went into the re-
markable details of his case He began, he
said, to be irresponsible on the 9TH OF
August, 1889.
Il remember that on the day." he con-
tinued, Il tried to remember where l was
on the night of the Cronin murder. A
fear seized me that I would be charged
with the crime. l was known to be an
anti-Irish man. | had relations with
British societies and with the British gov
erment that if they were brought out In
court would have been very dangerous"
Mr. Collier related at length how such
thoughts haunted him and how in desper-
alton he went out one night and fol-
lowed over the whole track taken by
the Cronin assassins, and on the spot in
Lincoln park described so minutely by the
suspect, Woodruff, attempted suicide. The
revolver failed to discharge, and Mr.. Col
lier according to his own story, thereupon
threw the weapon into the lake at that
point. Mr.. Collier declares that as mat
ter Of fact he knew nothing of the Cronin
case and that he now fully. recognizes the
insane character of fear that he would be
tried for the crime
