The federal government OF Switzer-

MURDER AND MYSTERY.
Leading Washington Modiste SIain-Murderer
and Motive Alike Unknown.

Washington, d. G., Dec. ia mys-
terry that promises to rival the Ayres
tradegy has stirred the city to it's depths.
Mrs. Walter Dennis, one of the most
fashionable modistes of Washington,
was found in her apartments Tuesday
morning unconscious and dying. Help
was called and on examination it was
found that her skull was fractured in
several places, her jaw broken and her
body badly bruised. She had been
beaten to death, evidently with some
blunt instrument and apparently, after
being hammered over the head until UNI
conscious, had been wantonly bruised
on many parts of her body. The room
showed evidences of struggle, but in
dicatiOns were that the woman had been
fairly beaten down and afterward thrown
into the position in which she was found.
That robbery was not the motive for
the crime was evident from the fact that
on the stand near the woman's bed
was pocketbook containing large sum
of money. 1t had apparently remained
untouched as no confusion was evident
on the stand. In the other places in
which a search would naturally be made
by robber, there were no indications
OF disorder. The police are totally at
sea and the detectives have thus far
failed to find either motive for the as
sassination or any one who can throw
light on either the time or visitation.
The victims condition is such that
there is no hope Of her ever regaining
consciousness and she is now dying.
Mrs. Dennis enjoyed one of the most
fashionable patronages of the city, and
numbered among her friends some of
the most distinguished women of WASH
ington. She was a woman whose char
acter has never been in any wise ques-
toned,

SEVEN DROWNED.
British Bark Pinmore Meets With Disaster OIL
Washington Coast.

Hoquiam, Dec. 1.-THE bark reported
off the Washington coast Sunday is the
four-masted Scotch bark Pinmore, jam
ieson master, owned Clink 4 Co., Glas-
cow, from Santa Rosalia for Portland,
there to load for Europe. She bea. from
November 26 to December $, eight days,
off the Columbia river bar, but could not
get tug. On December she tried to
make Grays harbor but adversewindsand
current carried her by.
After becoming water.logged, two an
chors were thrown out and the bark
abandoned, the crew starting ashore IN
two boats. The first boat gained the
shore in safety, losing one man, who was
sick at the start and died during the
sixteen hours of exposure in the open
boat. The second boat overturned in the
surf and lost six men.
The names OF the men who were lost
were: Henry White, Joseph White,
Richard Drank, Patrick Prior and Harry
Deven, who shipped from Cardiff Carl
Nilsonn, who shipped from Antwerp,
and Stanley Shearer, an apprentice.
The surviving twenty-three members
of the crew made their way to shore,
going by land to Oyshut and from there
the tug Ranger took them to Hoquiam.
The bark sprung a leak on November
26, and after beating about for number
of days trying to make an entrance into
the Columbia, was finally driven north.
Her ballast shifted, and that, with the
water in her, gave her list of As degrees;
After flying signals OF distress day and
night, the condition of the vessel con-
stantly becoming worse, the crew
abandoned her on Wednesday night az
she was nearing the surf at the mouth OF
Raft river, north of Grays harbor.
Monday night the whistle OF the tugs
was heard off shore, and when the fog
lifted the bark had disappeared, but
whether lowed into some port or sunk is
not known by those ashore.
The French bark Ernest Reyer, which
last week went ashore north OF Grays
harbor, is breaking up and will become
total wreck. Her crew is expected here
ON Thursday.
