A grand jury investigation of
F. W. Starr and Chartea Haight
formerly of Portland, is asked o
the Multnomah county district at

poration commissioner. The two
men were former salesmen -con
nected , with te Northwest DrjJM

Hotel Syndicate, " both ' concerns;

An examination of papers of the
hotel syndicate revealed an VI-
leged "sucker list," with names ot

; ARer being at' the morgue for
nearly 4 hours, the body of a
man. found on the banks of the
Willamette river between the
ends of Center and Chemeketa,
was Identified Monday afternoon
by Mrs. E.- L. Van Allen as that
of Jim Sullivan, of San Diego, who
had registered " at the Eldrldge
lodging'house early in May.,
. Sullivan was discovered Sunday
by Joe Kallstrom who had gone
to the river to cut some willows.
Sullivan had evidently taken bis
life by drinking a amall bottle ot
lysol and then shooting himself
above the .right ear, with a .33
calibre revolver. One shell show
ed tl;at the firing pin had missed
and the man .had been forced to
pull the trigger the second time.
Because all marks of identifi
cation had been removed positive
identification was delayed. Police
and severaltbers who viewed the
body were certain that they had
seen him In .the city and had
talked to him. It was later learn
ed that Sullivan, Until a few days
ago, bad worn whiskers. When
found he was smooth shaven.
The dead man was 55 years old,
with gray hair. Remarks made at
various times around the lodging
house led the police to believe that
family . troubles caused him to
take his life. He Is believed to
have a son In San Francisco.
The remains were taken In
charge by the coroner. Sullivan
w missed from his rooms Fri
day and a report was made to the
police that a shot was heard about
t o'clock. Mrs. Van Allen said
that she had talked to him Satur
day mprnlng. '
The police wrote to the San
liego authorities yesterday to
learn more about the dead man
The view was taken that Sullivan
might not be his real name.
