NAB OPIUM PLANT.
Seattle Pullman Palace Car Superin-
tendent Arrested.

SEATTLE, Sept. 29.-George Ber-
ger, local superintendent Of the Pull
man Palace Car company, was arrest
ed by customs officers on the charge
of smuggling. With him was taken
F. B. Stevens, better known as Big
Steve" and Stevens wife.
The arrests were made by Customs
Officers Frank Lotus, Brinker and
Knox.
Berger, when arrested, was carrying
a dress suit case containing 27A
pounds of opium. At the police sta
ton he claimed that he did not know
what was in the suit case. He stated
that Mrs. Stevens had approached him
as he was about to leave the car and
asked him if he would carry the suit
case for her.
Assisting the Woman.
He said ne took the valise and had
only gone a few feet when the officers
placed him under arrest.
Stevens was one of the gang capt
ured some time ago along with more
than 1000 pounds of the illicit drug.
The customs officers have been
working on the case for some time.
Nearly three weeks ago word was
received at the local office that there
was something doing in the dope
line, and that the smuggling was not
confined 10 the steamboats,.
The officers then set to work On the
case. An accident revealed the fact
that Big Steve" was on the move
again. 1t was also noticed that he
was continually seen in company with
a woman.
On both sides of the line the Off
GERS worked jointly until it became
known that the trick was to be turned
on the train which was scheduled to
arrive in Seattle Tuesday morning.
Berger Pleads Innocence.
Berger, when seen at police head
quarters, stoutly denied that he had
anything to do with the opium. In
spite of his statements the officers are
inclined to hold their own opinions in
regard to Berger. The officers state
that they have a pretty good idea of
the gang which has been working in
and about Puget sound for some time.
and intend to break it up.
There is also a fine point of law
which envelopes the case. Customs Of
ficers are only warranted in arrest
ing those on whom the goods are
found.
Neither big Steve" nor his wife
mad the dress suit case containing the
drug, and it looks as though Berger
would have to do some tall talking to
ger ont of biS r,rocant

Walla Walla has proven anything
but a harvest for the army of touts
that thronged here early in the meet.
Very few of them made any money
and those VINO did have played it all
back. Every tout on the race track
went broke on the derby.

by Bowers. The first heat was won
in 1928, the second in 2:25A, the third
in 2:2S and the fourth in 1925.

I Golden Buck repeated his per-
Torrance Of the day before when he
! won the second event on the card, the
four and one-half furlongs and made
the distance in 55A. He was a
strong favorite. Aurora B. got the
place and Chief Aloha third. Benny
Powell gave Golden Buck the ride Of
his life and when he came under the
wire it looked like Benny was just
lifting the horse forward.
The talent got to the bookmakers
again in the third race when they
had their money staked on Miss
Raphael and backed her down to six
10 five. The chestnut mare beat out
Mosketo. Great Mogul was third.
The finishing of this race was some
what of a relief for then the crowd
had the Walla Walla derby to look for
ward to. Little Rettig was on the
winner.
1t looks very much like the stable
entry, Sad Sam and Peter j., will
land the money in the great Whitman
handicap which is to be run tomor-
row. 1t is a six furlongs event and
the entry will about go at three to
five. Mindanao and Estelle j., the
Baker City Stables entry, will have
good chance and the odds will be
about at even money to win. Laidlaw
is entered in this race and is good

ming in good form at this meet would
be touted to win this race. Suburban

ra Santa may be played for a good
thing by some. Others entered are
Silver Heels, Lady Rice, Sir Christie
pher, Follow Me and Miss Croix.
The fifth race saw lot of horses
with trapped hoofs go to the post.
There was Babe, six to one; Caro-
burn at even, Dixie, three to one; Har-
ry Tracy, four to one, and Sunrise,
three to one. The talent didn't like
the race very we'll and it didn't get
much play for the most of them went
bump on the derby. Sunrise won with
Coburn second and Dixie third.
The sixth and last race saw a lot of
money go down On Harbor He was
tipped to win by many of the wise
ones and the crowd backed the brown
horse from even to three to five. The
distance was a mile and Clark won on
Harbor by half a Length from lone.

final personal plea to the court in his
own behalf, Albert T. Patrick, the law.
yer convicted Of the murder of William
Marsh Rice, last night was sentenced
to die in the electric chair. in the
week beginning Jan. IL next. Sentence
was pronounced by Justice Rogers in
the criminal branch Of the state SUI
preme court. Notice at once was given
that an appeal to the supreme court Of
the United States on a writ of error
will be taken The application for the
writ, it is said, will act as a stay Of
execution. Patrick was taken back to
Sing Sing last night. nj 81
The passing of sentence upon the
lawyer, whose case has been one of the
most noted in criminal annals, followed
a series of arguments by his counsel,
who at first contcnded that the SUI
preme court did not have jurisdiction
to set new date for the execution,
the last stay in the case having been
granted by the court Of appeals. and
later asked that sentence be deferred
at least until the appeal to the higher
court could be perfected. ...-
