All kinds of complalnta have been re
reived by the Public Service Commis
sion, but the oddest one on record came
In when residents of Jovlta protested
that It la impossible "to best" the new
tariff framed by the Commission to
cover the lnterurban line between Ta
coma and Seattle.
The tariff made out by O. O. Calder
head. statistician for the Commission,
fixed the round trip rate from Jovlta
to Tacoma at li cents, which was a
rat of 3 cents under the old rate. But
the Jovlta people used to buy a round
trip ticket, under tbe company'a sched
ule, to Milton, for 0 cents, and then
another round trip from Milton to Ta
rn ma for 11 cents, making the round
trip for 30 cents.
Now however there Is bo possible
combination by which they can make
the trip for less thsn 3 cents. Then
they appealed to the Commission, but
the Commission will not be able to
help them. The matter reste entirely
with the railway company. If it wanta
to cut the rate I cents It csn: the Com

FORMER WIFE IS ON LIST
Armed Posse Headed by Brother of
William Showman Will Take
Marxyek Dead or Alive Gov
ernor Offer Reward.
ELLSWORTH, Kan.. Oct. 1. The
County Attorney today began a search
for Charles Marxyek, an ex-convict, in
connection with the murder here Sat
urday of William Showman, Mrs.
Showman and their three children.
Governor Stubba has offered a 3600 re
ward for the slayer. Marxyek waa re
leased from the penitentiary a year
ago, after serving a sentence for grand
larceny for stealing wheat from a
farmer by whom he was employed.
Marzyek's former wife, who obtained
a divorce and re-marrled following his
sentence to the penitentiary. Is a sister
to Mrs. Showman. She Is said to have
made a statement to the autnorltles
today that testimony of Mr. and Mrs.
Showman was largely responsible for
Marxyek's conviction and that before
he went to prison he had sworn
vengeance. He was seen last night
running through a wheat field near
here.
Veegeaace Sought Ob Nine.
Nine persona remain to complete
Marxyek's vengeance If he is seeking
revenge. They are James Vopat. the
farmer from whom he stole the wheat
and whose name he forged to checks;
Vopat'a wife, Minnie, who was the
convict' wife; their two children; John
Katke, the father of the murdered
Mrs. Will Showman, who testified
agalfit Marxyek; Mrs. John Katke and
the) 9 children.
TSrse people are panic-stricken. Af
ter Vopat rscognlxed the convict In
his fields last night he took his wife
and children and fled In terror to the
house of another Slav farmer five miles
away, where he spent the night.
Ira Lloyd, the attorney who de
fended Marxyek In the wheat-stealing
case, believes that the ex-convict is
the alayer, and that he will wait In
the neighborhood until he completes
hla vengeance.
Prisoner's Threats Recalled.
"After he wa sentenced." said
Judge Lloyd, "he told me that when
he was released he would come back
and kill the people who were responsi
ble for his conviction and also their
children. Til put them all In hell,'
he said. His eyes are grayish-black
and shifty. He has a cruel face and
is of the sort that would take desper
ate chances."
An armed posse led by Sam Show
man, brother of the murdered man,
left this morning for the Vopat farm
and will search the country. If Marx
yek is found a fight Is expected.
Sheriff Bradshaw has ordered that he
be taken dead or alive.
Mrs. MlKN s Vopat. former wife of
Charles Ma vek. said today that
Marxyek was ; -mvlcted of forgery In
Colorado Spring... where the six mem
bers of the Wayne and Burnham
families were murdered, and that he
waa at Monmouth. 111., where three
persons were slain October 3. The
weapon used fn each instance waa an
ax.
