ard s. Glenn. VINO has been advertis-
ing manager OF the Detroit concern

Big Ocean Liner Kron Prinz
Wilhelm i'm Collision.
Another Steamer Rams a Hole
i'm Her Side.
ON HER WAY TO DOCK.
She Had 229 Cabin Passengers
Aboard.
Nobody Was Injured on Either
of the Vessels.

New York, March 1S.-While the great
Transatlantic liner Kron Prinz Wilhelm
Of the North German Lloyd line lay at
anchor in a thick fog off Staten Island
today the steamer Crown of CASTLE ran
into the liner and tore a hole more than
ten feet in diameter in the overhang-
ing stern. The bow of the Crown of
CASTLE penetrated the stewards quar-
ter on the Kron Prinz Wilhelm to a
distance of about 15 feet but nobody
was injured. Water tight doors on the
hull of the Kron Prinz were completely
closed but it was quickly ascertained
that she had suffered no damage below
the water line and after a wait of sew
eral hours for the fog to tighten she
proceeded to her dock in Hoboken
The Kron Prinz Wilhelm arrived from
Bremen at 2 a. m. today, carrying 1872
passengers. She anchored off the quar-
antine station to wait the visit of the
health officer, and after his inspection
started from quarantine to come up the
harbor to her dock.
When the liner left quarantine the
fog was not thick enough to prevent
good vision of the harbor, but the
steamer had proceeded only about two
miles when the mist closed thickly
about her and Captain Nierirch brought
the ship to stop and anchored off
Robinsons reef to await the lifting of
the fog.
The Kron Prinz Wilhelm reached her
dock in Hoboken about 10:30 a. m.
There was a triangular hole about 10 by
Is feet in the extreme after portion of
the steamers overhang. The prov of
the Crown of CASTLE penetrated the
Kron Prinz Wilheln's hull distance
of about 15 feet into the quarters oc-
cupied by the steward
Four bells were rung on both the bow
q nd at of hn Inc To
vessels of her presence, but the steam
er had been at anchor only five min
utes when the quartermaster on the
aft bridge telephoned to the captain
that a steamer was coming stern,
headed directly for the Kron Prinz
Captain Nierirch promptly ordered the
chain slipped, the engines started
ahead and the watertight doors in the
steamers compartments were closed.
There were 4S of these doors and they
were closed in just Is seconds.
The big steamer was just gathering
headway when the Crown of CASTLE
struck her fairly in the stern, pene-
trating the overhang and tearing a tri-
angular hole. 15 feet wide and 10 feet
long through the. steel plates. TO-
2 The shock of the blow was only
slightly felt on board the big liner and
the two vessels quickly separated. Both
of them came to anchor again and lay
there for several hours until the fog
lifted, when they proceeded to their
docks.
At the North German Lloyd dock it
was stated that the damage to the
Kron Prinz would not delay her sail
ing.
The Crown of CASTLE, which was
bound in from Rotterdam belongs to
the New York and Continental line.
No one was injured on board. The
steamers cut-water was partly torn
away near the main deck, but the dam
age is slight.

THEY'REL EL0OKING AROUND
Tax Commissioners Are Making Their
Official Visitation.

Judge w. S. Glass, member of the
state tax commission, left Tuesday for
Clay, Lincoln, Republic and Washing
ton counties, for the official visitation
which the law requires the board to
make in order to see that the work of
assessing property is getting along all
right.
Chairman s. T. Howe of the board
went to Montgomery and other south
eastern Kansas counties. S. c. Crum-
mer is already out inspecting the work
in some of the eastern counties.
The reports coming in to the tax COM
mission indicate that the assessing of
property at it's full value is proving
generally satisfactory. When = prop
erty owner finds that every otner man S
property is being assessed at it's full
value he is more willing himself to COM
ply with the law. From one county it
is reported a wealthy citizen had
SIS, 100 worth of mortgages which he ad-
mitted that he had intended to cover
up until he found that everybody was
being assessed on the full value of th9
property owned

ALL OVER IN HAYTI.
Arrival of Warships Settled the Dis
turbed Condition.

Paris, March 18.-Offcial advices
received here from Hayti indicate that
the arrival at Port Au Prince of for
eign warships has produced the de-
sired effect upon President Nord
Alexis. NJ. Carteron, the French min
lister, cables that the government has
abandoned it's intransigeant attitude,
that the re-embarkment of the
refugees has been authorized. and
that safe conduits have been granted
for the departure Of General Firmin
and the other revolutionary agitators
who had taken asylum at the legations
and consulates at Port Au Prince and
Gonaives. M. Carteron gives much
credit for this improved state of
affairs to the active intervention of
NJ. Borno, and the minister of state,
who was the first to counsel this
course of action. All danger Of an at
tack on the legations or consulates is
now considered at an end
