"A Tacoma Real Estate Brokers' Traptc.
Death In PhiIadarh rhhia

A Tacoma Real Estate Brokers' Trapi,,
Death In Philade lbhia.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 9.-Chester Cries
sener, real estate broker of Tacoma.
WASH, died today in the Philadelphia
hospital from supposed effecte of opium,
believed to have been administered to
him in low lodging house at 425 Spruce
street yesterday morning. Griessener
hao Deen stopping at one of the hotels
| mere 1or the past eight or nine months.
he TOLD them at the hotel that he was
real estate broker in Tacoma, and that
MS WISH mere was upon business mat
| tefs. Griessener eeemed always 10 have
plenty OF money, and made freuuept
trips to adjacent cities.
! According to the story told by himself
at the hospital before be died. he came
back here on Friday morning from one
OF his trip, and landed at the Arch street
wharf. He says he was met bv
two men and induced to enter e. cab.
and was taken to the house at 425
Spruce street, where he was found diving
last night by the police.
That he had not been taken directly
there, however, is shown by the docket
OF police magistrate, before whom he
was fined on Friday for refusing to paw
cab fare. AT the time of his arrest for
refusing to pay a cabman, he had as a
companion a well-known thief named
Hugh McDevitt. As Griessener had no
money at the time of his arrest, he had
to pawn his watch to pay his fine, He
left the station house accompanied by
McDevitt, and was then probably taken
to the lodging house. Griessener had no
recollection of what took place there un-
til Saturday morning. He took breakfast
that morning with McDevitt, his mis-
tress, woman named Kate Eberting,
and another woman. After breakfast he
says they gave him something to drink,
and he lost consciousness almost i'm
mediately afterwards, and remembered
nothing more until few minutes be-
fore III O'Clock last night, shortly before
the police came to the place.
He was taken to the hospital, where
he exhibited strong symptoms of opium
poisoning, complicated by indications of
delirium tremens. After telling his
story, Griessener became delirlous. in
which condition he remained until he
died this afternoon.
When taken to the hospital, Cries.
| sener's overcoat was missing. He had
no money, although he said he had con-
siderable when he arrived here. Two
hand bags he had with him had disap-
peared, also, and the only thing lett him
was revolver. McDevitt and the
Eberting woman have been held to
await the corOner's inquest.

PUGET SOUND DISASTER,

The Vessels Interlocked So They Could
Not Be Parted - The Premier a

Conflicting Stories.

By the Associated Press.
SEATTLE, Wash, Oct. 9.--The steamer
Premier, which was sunk IN a collision
yesterday, left Port Townsend about
80 p. m. for Seattle, in heavy fog,
blowing her whistle continuously
When off Point No Point another whistle
was sounded close by, and almost i'm
mediately afterward terrific crash was
heard. The fore cabin of the Premie,
was smashed to splinters, and the prov
of the Willamette was found jammed
right into the bow of the Premier. The
Willamette was laden with coal and was
on her way from Seattle
to San Francisco. There were
a number of men in the Premier cabin
one of whom was killed, together with a
boy. The steward, who was in the sa-
loon eating his dinner, was instantly
killed. Several other passengers were
iammed in the debris. Some of them
were seriously wounded, and all more
or less bruised.
The stem of the Willamette was 90
deeply imbedded in the Premier that
the passengers scrambled over the
broken woodwork onto the collier. The
ladies were handed up first, followed BY
the wounded as fast as they could be
removed. Men with broken limbs, and
both men and women with bleeding
faces and bodies, were helped up.
1t was soon seen to be impossible to
draw off the Willamette without sink
ing the Premier. So Captain Anderson
determined to forge ahead, driving be-
fore him the steamer spiked to his bow
He forced her back on the beach, but
was so tightly wedged in that he could
not back off without dragging the Pre-
mier with him. The tug Goliah, towing
out a schooner, was hailed, and she took
off the passengers, bearing them to
Seattle, where they arrived about mid
night.
The receding tide left both ves-
sells stranded, and still interlocked
and no further news can be obtained
tonight. 1t is feared that the bow O,
the Willamette was partly stove in.
Although TIE whole affair occurred il
few moments, and the passengers
quickly recovered from the momentary
shock and fright, there were some pitt.
able scenes. One man, whose name is
unknown, was crazed with fear, and i'm.
mediately sprang overheard and was
drowned.

A Terrible Prairie Fire.

HURON, S. d., Oct. GA terrible
prairie fire started seven miles northwest
of this city this afternoon, burning a
stretch of country ten miles wide by
twenty miles long. The towns of Broad
land and Hitchcock narrowly escaped
destruction. The citizens turned out and
fought the fire till dark. aided by a large
force from this place. The country
burned over is thickly settled by pros
porous farmers, many of whom have
lost everything. Up to O'Clock tonight
the fire was still raging, though less
fiercely.

lumbus as immoral, dishonest, and, in
effect, an impostor. 1t was God, said
Mr.. Van Dyke, who discovered Oolum-
bus, and used him as an agent in the
discovery of America. 1t was the
King of Kings who was back of
that avarice and cruelty which Coum-
bus displayed, and caused the voyage
to be made. It was certain Columbus
obtained money under false pretenses
on at least one occasion. He was other
wise immoral and guilty of great cruel
ty, and responsible for the West Indian
slave trade that marks dark spot in
the history of the old world.
At Fifty-ninth street and Eighth ave-
nue., today, Italian workmen spent sew
eral hours raising the shaft of Colum-
bus monument. The shaft is 81 feet in
height and four feet from the ground,
and will be surmounted by a heroic
statue OF Columbus.

The Dust of Old Chris offered to Uncle
Sam for a Loan.
CHICAGO, Oct. 8.-A News Washington
special says: A queer story is told by
one OF the worlds fair commissioners
who claims that he learned during a
recent visit to the state department that
the remains of Christopher Columbus
had been offered to the United States
as security for $100, 900 loan, at 6 per
cent interest. The offer was made
by President Heureux, OF San Domingo.
The commissioner states that, although
the proposition was that the remains
should be taken in security for a loan, it
is generally believed about the state
department that this was merely deli
cate way of preparing an absolute sale.
The proposition was rejected, as the
authorities in Washington have no
authority to make such purchases or
loans.
