COL. VISSCHER SPEAKS
The Talented Poet and Orator Cham
piOnS the Republican Party
ASSESSMENTS TO BE REDUCED
Sad Death OF a Fine Young Man-Im-
portant Meeting This Morning at
Commissioners' Court

Purdy's opera house at New What
com was crowded with n large and APP
preciative audience last evening 10
hear the principles Of the Republican
party expounded by Col. w. l.. Viss-
cher, the popular and talented orator.
Owing to the absence of Senator j. b.
Allen and ;. II. Piles, who were an
nounced TO be present, Colonel Viss-
cher had the entire evening TO himself,
and delighted and instructed those
who were present by his apt wlttlcisms
and forcible arguments. G. w. Dorr,
Of New Whatcom, introduced the
speaker, who began his address
with "A reference 10 the absence
Of Senator Allen, which, he said,
was occasioned by the illness
Of that distinguished gentleman.
He spoke in glowing terms Of Senator
Aliens work In the halls of congress
and referred 10 his record ~ being
equal in statesmanship and faithful
service TO any Of his colleagues in the
senate chamber. Colonel Nisscher
then took up the taBifr question and
handled IT In most practical and con-
vincing manner, showing the beneficial
results of the reciprocity clause of the
Mckinley tariff bill, and at the same
time pointing out the fallacies Of the
arguments advanced by the Demo
cratic party with respect 10 the
tax on the poor which resulted
from the protection policy Of the Re
publican party. The do ttrines Of the
Peoples party were also handled in "A
ma.terly manner by the speaker, who
made a profound impression upon the
audience by his arguments against
their plans for increasing the circua-
ton Of money, and a. to the injustice
Of their Income tax plank. The address
throughout was cnlivcned by keen wit
ticism, which evoked rounds Of
laughter from the audience, while his
admirable points in favor Of the princi-
pies Of his party were greeted with en-
thusiastic bursts Of applause. A refer
ence To the name Of John II. McGraw
as the candidate for governor was
cheered 10 the echo, giving "a strong in
dication Of his popularity amonga IA large
majority of those who were present.

RIPPLE AND WANDA WIN

all Competitors at Seattle
HORNET REPORTED DISABLED
The Ship VIM. A. Campbell Founders in
the Paoific-The Famous Moni-
tors Engineer Dead

SEATTLE, Oct. l0.-[Special 1.-The
first annual regatta Of the Internation-
al Yachting Association, comprising
the yacht clubs Of Seattle, Tacoma,
Fairhaven, New Whatcom, Anacortes,
Port Townsend and Victoria, has
been declared Off until next spring,
on account of the lack Of wind.
A race was attempted on Thursday,
but none of the twenty-seven yachts
which entered succeeded in covering
the course within the five-hOur time
limit established, the Ripple, Of Fair
haven, coming the nearest to the goal.
The provoking calm continued until to-
day when the breeze was brisk enough
to compensate for the vexatious and
tiresome delay and fill the hearts Of the
enthusiastic yachtsmen with tho great
est glee, especially those from Belling-
ham Bay. On account Of the calm,
however, and the fact that some of the
yachtsmen were unable 10 remain
longer the International regatta was
postponed until May %, TO be sailed at
Victoria, but a special regatta, open to
all association yachts, was arranged for
today. The wind and weather were
favorable and the race was fine one
from start TO finish. The yachts got
away in good season and had proceeded
but "a short distance before il was appar-
ent that the sailing qualities Of the
Fairhaven favoritss, Ripple and Wanda,
in a stiff breeze and under competent
management, had not been overesti-
mated. They soon left most Of their
competitors far behind and were easy
winners, the Ripple being the first TO
cross the line, closely followed by the
Wanda. The Ripple capsized just af-
ter passing the stake boat, but sus-
tanned no injury and her crew escaped
unhurt. The Hornet, Of Whatcom,
was disabled before the race and did
not start out.

THE PREMIER DISASTER
Four Killed and Many Injured In a Col
lision with the Willamette

Four Killed and Many Injured In Col
lision With the Willamette
The Canadian Pacific steamship Pre-
mier, which left here at the usual hour
Saturday morning for Tacoma, collided
with the big steamer Willamette in II
dense fog between Port Townsend and
Seattle about 2 o'clock in the afternoon,
four persons being killed outright and
many others injured. Following are
the names Of the dead
FRANK &. WYNKOOP, Tacoma, aged
- years, travelling with his father,
mother sister.
JOHANNES Nor, Tacoma, "A laborer
who leaves "A wife and three young
children in destitute circumstances.
WILLIAM NJ. RICHARDsoN, "A promi-
nent contractor Of Port Townsend,
where his family reside.
JOHN RANKIN, IA waiter on the Pre-
mier, aged about 22 years.
One man is said TO have jumped
ouerboard and drowned, but his IDENTITY
has not been established. Though a
good many Of the passengers were hurt
slightly and some quite painfully II Is
thought that none Of the injuries
are very serious except possibly
in the case Of A. w. Davis, of Port
Townsend, assistant barkeeper on the
vessel. When the collision occurred
both Capt. Gllboy and Pilot Baugh-
man were IN the pilot house keeping a
sharp lookout ahead and blowing the
whistle three times "A minute. The
Willamette also was whistling occa-
sionally, but not 30 often, and the Of
4.
from what direction the noise Of the
whistle came, owing, II Is presumed, 10
the different degrees Of density Of the
fog banks through which the two
steamers were passing. The big col
lier, with cargo OF 2,40O tons Of coal
for San Francisco, struck the Pre-
mier on the bow, cutting into her
nearly TO the center and 70 the water
line. The tug Goliah, which was near
by with a vessel I'm tow, came to the
relief of the interlocked steamers, the
Willamette having been unable To- get
loose from the Premier, and several
hours after the disaster took off the
passengers, including the killed and in
jured, and took them tO Seattle. The
Premier was pushed ashore by the
Willamette, from which she was separ-
ated by the tugs Goliah and Tacoma
late Sunday afternoon, the Willamette
returning to Seattle. There IL big
hole in her starbOard bow,
ten feet long by five feet wide, about
one foot below the water line. The
injury TO the Premier Is much greater
and II is estimated that IL will cost
$4,000 TO repair her. The old North
Pacific was sent out in her place Sun
day night and II expected again this
morning, but tomorrow or next day
the City Of Seattle will be put on the
route, TO run, probably, until the Pre-
mier is repaired.
