The Hudson on her trip down yesterday
20 Cincinnati. had $50 tons of freight. 1t
is estimated that the amount of freight
she took away from P.ttsburg would re-
quire two freight trains Of twenty cars
each TO carry her cargo. A week ago the
Hudson was unable to- get away from
Pt,sbure ON account of high water and
on her last trip she was compelled to re-
fuse freight because there was not water
enough to take everything offered. She
also took a big lot of freight from Wheel

Capt. W. H. Ellis. Of the steamer Bay
City, regards the advent of the steamer
George Z. Starr on the Seattle " hatcom
route as a direct attack on himself II
was stated in the Observation-Disclosures yes
terday morning that the Bay City was an
association boat. while the George Z.
Starr was not. This, according TO Capt.
Ellis, was just the opposite Of the true
state OF affairs.
THE fact is." said Capt. Ellis yester-
day. "the Bay City does not belong to the
association. and that Is why the George
T.. Starr. which Is an association boat. has
been put on the route. When I refused
10 join the association threat was made
10 me that unless I did Join my business
would be cut down The Starr is put on
the run for that purpose. Every one who
knows anything of steamboat business
knows there Is not enough business on
the Standardization route for three
steamers. The Bay City and State of
Washington have made no money on the
run IL the George z. Starr wishes to
catch cannery business, as has been
stated as the object of her going on the
route, why doesn't she run on alternate
days with me. instead of leaving the very
days / dor
While Capt. Ellis has not been in the
association. he has held up 10 established
rates. A cut rate competition that will
prove disastrous to all may now ensue.

usver thinking fer a momenTthar Il was
in dagger Of disappearing. What time In
the morning she was awakened by some
one opening the door she does not know.
but dawn was well advanced that she
could distinguish the person who had en-
tered her room and walked TO the table
where her money was. She says that
PAT Burns was the man and that she
saw him take her money.
What are you 6oings" asked Mrs.
Norrington
II forgot my PEN is the reply ascribed
10 the man whom Mrs Norrington swears
was Pat Burns.
Burns walked out Of the room. and Mrs.
Norrington, realizing that she was a
stranger in a foreign country, and prac-
ticaliy penniless. commenced TO cry. After
a while she dressed herself and went to
the Office. where she made inquiries about
Burns. The Waterman did not know or
any one by that name. but remembered
that large man had come down the
stairs somewhere about 3 or O'Clock
in the morning. Mrs. Norrington in
Qufred about her room and found that 1t
had already been paid for. She was sur
prised to learn that the man who had Sc
cured the room did not live IN the hotel.
She understood that he had room In the
same building
Mrs. Norrington started out in search
OF policeman, and subsequently, she
landed at police headquarters. where she
poured her tale of woe into the ears OF
Capt. Hogle. The moment the captain
heard of Pat" Burns proposal TO marry
he grinned. but instantly recovering his
self-possession. was an attentive listener
to the end. Chief Reed was made ac-
quainted with the story and ordered the
arrest of Pat Burns who was found in
the Globe hotel by Sergeant Peer. Burns
made no remarks. He got out of bed and
accompanied the officer to headquarters
where he was locked mp. The sergeant
thought from Burns actions he was not
surprised at what had happened.
The first obstacle that the police encoun-
tered in the case was to find the name
of the hotel where the alleged robbery had
taken place. Mrs. Norrington said that
she was unacquainted with the city. and
that when she started out TO find the place
she became bewildered. Chief Reed said
he thought he could find good reliable
guide, and chose Detective Cudihee, who
is great man in such cases" Their
search was successful not only as to the
name of the hotei--tfe AtlantIc-hut also
as regards evidence, which the police re-
fuse to divulge.
Late yesterday afternoon Mrs. Morning
ton was taken to Prosecuting Attorney
McElroy's Office by Police Matron Taylor.
A complaint was sworn TO charging Pat
Burns with grand larceny, and later a
warrant was issued from Justice Inger-
soils court.
Burns was released last evening on
bonds furnished by his friends He denies
the charge against him.
