NEW SHAPE "1900" GOLF, BICYCLE AND SAILOR HATS FUNERAL ARRANGED FOR PliAXS FOR BURIAL OF DEAD VOLUNTEERS. Rational Guard ami Second Oreson Will Conduct, the Procession Details Arc Settled. Details for the public funeral services to be held Sunday over the bodies of the Second Oregon soldiers being returned to the state from the Philippines were ar ranged last evening at the Armory. A mass meeting of the Volunteers was called by General Summers, which was attended by General C. F. Beebe, on behalf of the Guard: Mayor "W. A. Storey, representing the city; and Adjutant-General C. U. Gan tenbeln, on behalf of Governor Geer. The committees appointed some time ago to arrange for the ceremonies Teported that everj'thlnjr necessary had been attended to. From every official came the assur ance that it was the general desire to have the Volunteers arrange for the serv ices, and everything else would co-opsrate. The general committee's report, read by Chairman George F. Telfer, was the first order of business announced by Gen eral Summers after calling the meeting to order. This recited the seeming diffi culty facing the committee In making proper arrangements, owing to lack of funds, until Governor Geer instructed the State Military Board to pay all necessary expenses. Including the purchase of a plot in some cemetery. This liberal attitude of the Governor had enabled the commit tee to arrance for the purchase of a fine plot in RIverview cemetery, which) will be used as a military plot hereafter, and also to provide for the construction of a catafalque for the conveyance of caskets Governor Geer's action in having: the un claimed dead returned to the state, the offer of General Beebe. of the Armory and the services of all or any of tho Guard to be used in any manner desirable, were also reported. Particulars of the programme finally de cided upon are that the services shall ba divided into three distinct parts. At the Armory the civic authorities shall have charge, when an address by the Governor, an oration by D. Soils Cohen, a prayer, music by the First Regimental Band and vocal music by Professor Boyers Glee Club, will be the programme. This will commence at 10 A. M. In the afternoon at 1 o'clock the funeral procession will start from the Armory. This will be vho second division, and until the procession reaches the cemetery will be in charge of the National Guard, and under the direc tion of its commanding officer. At the cemetery the bodies will be delivered over to the Volunteers, who will give their comrades a military burial, according to the United States Army regulations. At the Armory and In the procession all chic and military bodies will be expected to participate. Governor Geer will be chairman during the public services, and will be accompanied by other state of ficials. Mayor Storey, with the c'ty of ficials, will also attend In a body. All fraternal organizations will be given place, as well as any other organization desiring to participate. The Volunteers' old friends, the Red Cross and the Emergency Corps, will be assigned to the pest of honor, if they attel in a body. At the noon hour the Guardsmen and Volunteers will take lunch, so that they may be ready to form when the procession starts at 1 P M. Light Bcttery A will have full charge of the transportation. A catafalque that will hold five or more caskets will be provided, under the direction of J. P. Finley. and the remainder of the caskets will be borne on artillery caissons, in true military fashion. There wiil be reaulred 24 horses for all these vehicles, which was quite a problem until Mayor Storey announced that he would turn over to the committee and the Guard all the horses In the City barn, if necessary. This places Battery A In pos session of a fine lot of animals to select from, and will greatly enhance the work the organization will have to do. That everything In the procession might be orderly, the meeting unanimously vot ed that General Beebe be asked to act as grand marshal. He expressed dislike to taking any part of such prominence, pre ferring that the Volunteers themselves would select their own commanding officer or other member, but as that part of thei services was under tho direction of the Guard, consented to arrange matters. Ke and General Summers will confer in this respect. Major Jubltz has been selected as tho officer to whom all organizations desiring to take part in the procession shall report. If each Intending to do so will inform him of the fact and also fur nish an approximate estimato of the num ber to be present, work will be greatly facilitated. Major Jubltz will also have charge of arrangements In the Armory for seating the civic and other officials attending. Guard. Volunteers, Emergency Corps and. Red Cross Society and immediate rela tives of tho deceased. A committee on Invitation was appoint ed, consisting of Lieutenant Telfer, W. C. North and Chris Bell. This committee will invite the Governor to act as pre siding officer; Captain Kllgore, the com mander of the revenue cutter Perry, now in the harbor, to participate with his sailors, and, through the press, all civic organizations. A committee of five on programme was also selected to fill up whatever might be needed on the pro gramme. The committee was lieutenant Tolfer. Captain C. E. McDonell. Henry Hockenyos. "W. C. North and Chris BolL It was decided by the Volunteers that all their members taking part should walk from the Armory to RIverview cemetery; that the uniform to be worn by 'them would be khaki complete, with campaign hnt nnd leggings: that each company should furnish six pall-bearers for each body belonging to the company; that Cap lain Dunbar's new Guard company, com posed of Volunteers, known as separate Company B. should act as firing squad for the entire service and wear the full khaki uniform, with the permission of General Beebe, which was readily granted. A bugle corps from the Volunteers will be also selected by Captain Dunbar to blow taps over the graves. Chaplain "W. S. Gilbert will act in his wonted capacity during the military, services In the cem etery. J. P. Finley, who volunteered his services as director, will arrange the cask ots at the Armory and also attend to necessary arrangements at the cemetery. The highest officers of the several com panies In the city will report during the week the names of their members to Gen eral Summers who are to act as pall bearers. Thanks were expressed by the Volun teers to several persons who have assist ed In giving their dead comrades appro priate burial. Governor Geer, General Eeebe and the Military Board generally were thanked for especial effort to ac commodate the Volunteers: J. P. Finley for his gratuitous services received like compliment, also "W. H. Boyer for ten dering the services of himself and club, and Ralph "W. Hoyt, who volunteered to act as accompanist during the Armory ceremonies. During the time the bodies are at the Armory they will constantly be kept under a guard of honor, night and day. General Beebe and Major Jubltz have arranged that regular details of Guardsmen shall go on duty every day, who will mount guard In the usual manner, with three reliefs. This morning when the bodies arrive. Captain Von EglofTstein, with his company, G. will be at the depot to es cort them to the Armory. General Sum mers asks as many of the Volunteers as can find It convenient to be there also to assist In whatever manner possible. After i reaenmg tne Armory, the oodles will bt placed in the center of the drill hall. To day, the public will not be admitted, as there will be much work arranging things. Thursday, Friday and Saturday people will be admlttod at certain hours until Saturday afternoon, when the caskets will be placed on the catafalque and caissons, ready for the ceremonies Sunday. Gen eral Beebe Issued an order for all flags over Armories throuchout the state to be at half-mast the day of the funeral. In the same line. Mayor Storey makes the following request to the people of the City of Portland: "To the citizens of Portland: Inasmuch as tho soldier dead of the state who fell while fighting their country's battles in tho Philippines will arrive in this city today at 9:15 A. M.. I most urgently re quest that each and every person of this city possessing a National flag will display the same at half-mast while the dead are here, that we may show our respect for those who have sacrificed their lives in behalf of their Nation and state. "I would also urge that during the hours of this week when the Armory Is open to the public, every citizen feel It his or her duty to visit the place with offerings of flowers, which will be placed on the cask ets by the military committee there In charge. This tribute is about the last that can be paid to those whose memory we shall ever revere, and our gratitude and affection must not be Judged small by neglect of attention while the state's soldier dead repose In our city." General Beebe yesterday Issued orders for the companies up the Valley to parade at the depots as the funeral train passed. This order covered company B, Ashland, Captain Mays; company C, Eugene, Cap tain Williams; separate company C, Eu gene, Captain Houston; company K, Sa lem, Captain Lyons; company H, Grant's Pass, Captain Tate; separate company F, Oregon City, Captain Metzner. The in structions Issued by telegraph announced the date the train would arrive, and re quested the captains to have their com panies at the depots of their respective cities to give full military honors. Eu gene was reached about 3 A. M., which was a bad hour, so representatives of the Guard merely were asked to be at the depot.

Speculation has been rife, and railroad men all over the country curious and ex pectant, to And out Just exactly what the form of the agreement was, made on the part of the presidents of the Am erican railway lines, to the Interstate Commerce Commission. This agreement, adopted at the meeting held in New York, March 7, 1500, was in the form of resolu tions. The text of these resolutions was kept out of the newspapers. As they be came effective yesterday, their publication at this time is apropos. The resolutions adopted, are herewith presented: "Resolved, That the ralroads here rep resented pledge themselves to the Inter state Commerce Commission and to each other, that all their business, both freight ana passenger, snail De conducted in a & N.

It Is replete with information and hand somely illustrated with half-tone photo gravures, of every point of interest on this interesting Journey of 2S95 miles.

For two hours previous to iu o'clock, the time set for the opening of the sale, the lobby of the theater and the hall of the building were crowded with messengers and others. Impatiently waiting for a. chance to secure seats. There were many women In the throng, too, and they pushed and Jostled each other In an effort to get near the box office. The advance sale Is very large, and there is no doubt that this great "Wagnerian trio will bo received by ono of tho largest and most fashionable audi ences of the season. Alfred Metzger, musical critic for tho San Francisco Bulletin, In reviewing the concerts given by Gadskl-BIspham-Dam-rosch in San Francisco, says: "Well, the "Wagnerian recitals have been concluded. That they were the most re fined and most artistic events San Fran cisco has enjoyed In this line will not be denied by those competent to Judge and on Intimate terms with music In general. Madame Gadskl, Walter Damrosch and David Blppham have shown themselves to bo Wagner exponents of the purest type, and this series of explanatory and Illus trative recitals will linger long In the memory of those who were fortunate enough to attend these affairs. Inasmuch as these concerts and lectures proved of Immense artistic value to this community. It should not be forgotten that the man agers who made these treats a possibility are ent'tled to considerable gratitude. Walter Damrosch has shown himself not alone thoroughly acquainted with the In tention and ideas of a master of com position, but he demonstrated in a strik ing manner that he Is able to transmit these ideas to his auditors. Thus this able musician showed beyond doubt that he Is a born conductor, for the main gift resented also pledge themselves, each to the other, in respect to all traffic trans ported after March 15, 1S00, that they will not, under any circumstances, pay or give any sort of stipend, rebate or consid eration of any character, or free trans portation In any form, to shippers or to persons representing them, or to any cor porations or other organizations claim ing to control the routing of business; that they will not adopt, nor permit to be adopted by their respective companies or asents, any device of any character where by the aggregate rates paid for trans portation shall be reduced, directly or in directly, below the figures printed and published In the various tariffs; and that in the meantime nothing shall be done by any one to prejudice or interfere with the foregoing pledges." It is clearly apparent that the owners of tho several railway lines represented at the New York meeting were most thoroughly In earnest In their action. "It Is unquestionably to the interest of the stronger lines," said ono railroad man yesterday, "to see to It that these reso lutions are carried out to the very letter and strictly adhered to without excep tion or deviation. It properly follows then that the weaker lines whose existence in the past has depended largely upon the payment of commissions, eta, will be un der the closest espionage from now on, and business will have to be done. If done at all, on square lines only." STOCK MOVEMENTS. Trailing;' Sheep Gradually Falling Into Disuse. O.

It has for many years been the custom to "trail" sheep 1. e., drive them overland but this custom is gradually falling Into disuse. The doing away with the old plan Is owing to many difficulties which have sprung up. Much of the land over which sheep were formerly driven has been fenced In, and the opportunity for forage has been thereby greatly reduced. It is no secret that cattlemen bear no love for the sheepmen, and often shoot their sheep down, as well as poison them. With all these difficulties in the way, it is a foregone conclusion that in a few years all sheeD movementa will be by rail ex clusively. It Is a noticeable fact that thewool yield from the sheep on the Oregon ranges will bo larger this year than for many a rear before, owing to tho favorable winter Just passed. City nnd County Physicians Connsel All Persons to Be Vaccinated. A third smallpox patient was placed in tho pesthouse yesterday by County Physi cian Harry F. McKay. This was a young man living In Alblna, who was found to be suffering from a light attack. As thero has been no vehicle for handling such pa tients, the last two taken to the pesthouso were conveyed by Dr. McKay in a buggy, which he himself had to drive. He also handled the patients, although not Immune himself, as there seems no other way but for City Physician Wheeler and him to do their own work In this respect. At the pesthouse there Is an Immune attendant. The two physicians have "been endeavor ing to have the old patrol wagon turned over to them for this work. Dr. McKay used It once, placing the patient In tho bed and mounting the box, which was found to work admirably so far as all save the physician were concerned. Ambu lance driving la not common work for either City or County Physician, but In the present emergency both officials have to do the best they can, that the com munity may be protected. Wnere the last case originated Is some thing of a mystery, as the young man had been circulating quite freely among numerous persons. One resort visited was the rendezvous of many strangers, espe cially men coming from down the Colum b a, and It Is supposed this Is tho place where the disease was contracted. The original, however. Is still unknown.' The three patients at the pesthouse are doing very well, the last case being the lightest. This is scarcely more serious than vario loid. All feel nut little the effects of their affliction, and will soon be out again. Because this variety of smallpox Is so light and harmless Is attributed the fact that It has been so insidious. Had It been severe so that a person attacked would Immediately take his bed, thero would have been but little difficulty In dis covering Its whereabouts and successfully quarantining It, Yet It must not be trifled with, and the City and County Physicians are urgent that vaccination be continued until everybody Is well inoculated. The young man last taken sick went to a phy sician's office three weeks ago for vaccina tion, but because he had to wait a few minutes for those preceding him, went away again. Now ho wishes ho had waited. a ALLOWED TO CROSS-EXAMINE Success of "Darkest Russia" at Cord ray's Theater.
