Another Seattle Sensation

Another sCnation comes from Seat

Washington Hotel safe in open day

more readily believed from the fact
that our people have become accus-
toned TO consider that everything
goes" that comes from that stalwart
community. Briefly, man from
Montana, giving the name OF Burke,
claiming to lie half owner OF the Butte
Nin,r, and having 5000 to iavest
with Moses Goldsmith in the threa,ri
cal business, is the star actor in the
drama. 1t was while apparently nego-
tiating for that interest he called Mr..
&. to the Lincoln hotel, by telephone.
On arrival in Burke's room, he was
requested to read a letter, lying on
the table, which, to his CONSERVATION,
he found to be communication to
himself, stating that the writer wanted
$3.50 very badly, and that if Gold.
smith did not at once sign check for
the money, he (Burke) would blow his
head Off; concluding with the signifi.
cant words: "Sit STILL" Goldsmith
ventured to turn his head, and found
Burke standing over him with re-
volyer. He declared that he bad been
an embezzler and wanted that amount
to make good" and that neither
would leave the room alive unless he
got it. Goldsmith soon as he recov-
cred from the daze caused by the sud.
den turn of affairs, drew a check for
the amount; the hotel clerk was
called and given the check by its
drawer to cash, end the bank was
telephoned by Goldsmith TO pay the
check on presentation. After the clerk
had gone, Burke made his victim order
up the drinks from the hotel bar.
This he readily did. When the clerk
returned with the money he counted
it out before Goldsmith, Burke stand.
ing behind him with the pistol, and
when the clerk had retired Burke
took up the money and put it in
his pocket. Burke then commanded
Goldsmith to step into the bathroom,
and after he bad done go, told him
to remain quiet fifteen minutes and
turned the key on HIM. Goldsmith,
after few minutes, signaled boy in
the street and told him to inform the
clerk that he was a prisoner and to
come to bis relief.
This was the report sent out Satur.
day, Immediately after the alleged rob-
berry. Since then the police have been
making diligent inquiries. Burke can
be found nowhere, and so far the story
is confirmed, but the Chief of Police
is working on the theory that some.
thing more is necessary to show that
the robbery actually occurred. Clerk
Fleming thinks that if Burke had had
