Victoria Excursion.

There is no fear of the Victorian being
too crowded next Friday. In the initial
trip from Portland to Astoria 1870 per-
sons were on board, and still there seemed
to be plenty OF room. On the Seattle ex-
cursion there will probably not be over
800. No steamer on the Sound has any
thing like the space on the decks as the
Victorian. Small parties of friends may
go together and have an outing of their
own. Quite number of prominent peo-
Pile from Tacoma and Port Townsend are
going. As the steamer approaches the
straits the smoke will disappear and the
beautiful scenery be clearly visible.

Commerce from until II o'clock. To this
reception the public generally is invited.
After the reception refreshments will prob
ably be served for the guests and commit
tees.
Yesterday John l.. McGilvra. Joseph
Shipper and James Leddy, three of the
reception committee. went to Tacoma to
apprise Chief Justice Fuller of the pro-
gramme for his reception, and today the
rest of the committee will go to Tacoma
and escort him on board the Bailey Cat
zert and to Seattle.
The party that makes a tour of Lake
Washington will consist of the chief
justice and his friends, the governor, JUS
tices of the state supreme court and the
several committeeman and their wives.
The number is necessarily limited on ac-
count of the smailness of the lake steamer,
which cannot accommodate great many
with any degree of comfort.

CONFLICTING VERSIONS.
Holden and Baird Tell Entirely Differ
ent Stories

Word reached the city Yesterday that
George w. Poor. of Seattle deputy sheriff
of King county, was shot and instantly
killed Sunday night at Wooley by DEPUTY
Customs Officers J. c. Baird and Charles
Buchanan during the capture of number
Of contraband Cinnamon. ]. f. Terry.

acter who formerly lived in Seattle. was
also shot and may die, while Baird re-
ceived painful scalp wound
about four inches long over the
left ear. Deputy Customs Inspector
2. TAYLOR Holden, of Seattle, was arrested
by Baird half an hour after the shooting
upon the charge of smuggling. The con-
tradictory stories told by the principals
make it difficult to determine just what
occasioned the shooting. II has been ru-
mored that Holden, Poor and Terry were
endeavoring to smuggle twelve or four
teen Cinnamon across the border, and the
shooting occurred as . result of their re-
sisting arrest. On the other hand there is
evidence that would indicate that Holden
and Poor were in the line of duty-captur-
ing the smugglers-when they were at
tackled by Buchanan and Baird under .
Misrepresentation and given no quarter.
Several weeks ago Holden applied 70

Terry and went there to make capture.
1t may be that Terry is in the smuggling
business and secured money to get the
Cinnamon across and then let Holden cap
ture them. Regarding that, of course,
know nothing, but can not believe that
either Holden or Poor was doing any
crooked work.
