THREE MOURNING
OVER SAME MAN
police WORKING ON CLUES
THAT MAY LEAD TO
THREE OTHERS.

Chicago, May 2S.--fAt least two
Widows and fiance are mourning the
Momer f. Morrison, and the
II working on clues which
may them to three other women
who claim that man as their late hns-
band.
Morrison died last Thursday of
what may have been poisoning. Two
of his wives have complained that
he took $4,000 of their money and
widow VINO says he promised to
marry her, admits she gave him ST.
600.
Mrs. II. e. Morrison says she mar
ried Morrison three years ago; Mrs
r. w. Thompson says she married
the same man under the name OF
Thompson seven years ago; Mrs.
Pearl McDivitt asserts that Morrison
promised to marry her next month.
These three women lived on the
same car line without knowing the
existence of each other, Sometimes
Morrison visited all three the same
day.
Under the name of Thompson the
man posed as a claim adiuster but
for seven years kept Mrs. Thompson
in the dark regarding his place oi
business. To Mrs. Morrison he was
a real estate dealer but she never
knew where his Office was. By day
he was manager Of rooming house
on Chicago avenue, where he never
was seen at night
From what Mrs. Thompson has
said. the police suspect that Morri
son took poison and they are gather
ing evidence to present to the cor
oner.

NE wRIEcoRo ESTABLISHED YES
TERDAY WHEN THE JAMAl-
CAN WENT TO SEA.
DEEPEST DRAFT ON RECORD
Though the Natural Rise of the Tide
Was Way Below the Acreage the
Steamer Passed Out Safely From
New Docks q the Bar.

When the steamship Jamaican. Of
the Leyland line, sailed out of Bruins
wick yesterday afternoon drawing
just fraction over 27 feet of water
she established what was unquestion-
ably a record for this port. While
many larger vessels, carrying heavier
cargoes, have often visited the port,
and while not long ago a steamship,
of the Jamaican, sailed from here,
still the vessel which departed yes.
terday drew more water than any OF
them. Further than that she eytaot
lished the fact that Brunswick un-
luestionably has q feet Of water in
the channel the entire distance from
the terminals of the Southern railway
to the outer bar.
The Jamaican, as stated, is owned
by the Leyland line. She sailed from
Liverpool some time ago and visited
the West Indies coming on to Sayan-
nah, where she took on part cargo
of phosphate, cotton, etc. The steam
er sailed from that port drawing 25.l1
and ca ne here to complete her cargo,
and 13 more inches were loaded in
her, SO when she sailed yesterday aft
ernoOn she was drawing az feet Of
4 .gaterss
Y The g0et thar Brunswick has all the
4 water Ia the channel and 6ii the bar
that is claimed was further demon
strated by the fact that when the
steamer sailed yesterday there was a
..atural rise OF the tide Of only 4.S.
when ordinarily the rise Is six feet,
and further a westerly wind has been
prevailing for the past few days,
which has carA&d unusually low tides.
The Jamaica is only medium size
ship, having al bet register of 2s.040
tons, but she $ not only the deep
est draft vesselseye to sail from this
port but also carried one of the larg-
est cargoes.
The record yesterday established
at this port is undoubtedly the record
for the South Atlantic coast 1t is
not believed that a vessel drawing n
feet of water has ever sailed from
any other port along this coast.
