FOUR WOMEN CLAIM HIM
Each Had Certificate of Marriage to
the Dead Mr.. King.

New York, Feb. Each bearing
marriage certificate, four women
appeared at a local undertaking es-
adjustment to claim the body of w.
S. King, who was a we'll known figure
in the TenderIoin district. He died
Wednesday at St. Joseph's hospital
and although the four supposed wives
have since turned up it was the gen.
eral belief. among his friends until
yesterday that he was a bachelor.
Three of the Mrs Kings" viewed the
body, having arrived at the undertake
ing establishment within a few min
utes of each other.
A hySterical scene ensued and each
woman was positive in her assertion
that the body before them was that of
her husband. The third woman be-
came so excited when she was inform
ed that two other women had already
claimed the body. that the undertake
err at last requested all three to leave
the place. They had scarcely depart
ed when the fourth woman came and
another scene was enacted. The I'M
dertaker was in quandary for a
while, but finally decided to recog-
nize only the first Mrs. King. The
funeral of the much-cIaimed husband
will be held today.

That 1t Will Take Up the Case

given notice that on February II it will
begin an investigation on its own mo-

toward determining the right OF the
commission to order through. routes ana

two or more lines which reach his des-
tination.
In the present case the Northern
Pacific has always refused to JOIN the
Hartman lines in a through rate TO
Seattle by the way of Portland AFTER
the passage of the Hepburn act the
Hartman lines filed through tarlIL
under the theory that the general con
currence of the Northern Pacific IN
their tariffs covered the Portland stu
alton. The commission ordered TINS
tariff taken out upon the ruling tnat
each tariff should be accompanied with
which was lacking in this case.
Then the Hartman lines filed tar
iff which made the same rates from
Chicago to Portland as are MAINTAIN
ed by the Hill lines from Chicago 10
Seattle and incorporated provision TO
the effect that any passenger could. by
applying to the conductor on the ore
gon Railroad & Navigation company
line. secure a free side trip from Port
land to Seattle.
This move was countered by the
Burlington, which sent a representative
to the commission to ask If 1t would
he allowed to file such a tariff from st.
Louis to Portland with a free side trip
to Seattle. The commission thought
not, but declined to issue ruling, II
being stated that it had decided to
