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.
Regulating the work of the Guard and
use of the Armory while the bodies re

Speculation has been rife, and railroad
men all over the country curious and ex

the form of the agreement was, made
on the part of the presidents of the Am

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

J. B. KIrkland. district passenger agent

evening. 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."

DRAWS BIG HOUSES.
movement is from Oregon to Montana.
Wyoming, Kansas and Nebraska, and
many bands of sheep will go by rail. 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.

J. F. Boothe, chairman of the commit
tee appointed by the Republican Bar As
sociation to Investigate charges against
Deputy District Attorney Giltner, Is out In
a letter saying that the committee had
and has no Inclination to deny Mr. Gilt

nesses. Ho states that either Mr. Giltner
or Mr. Sewall has been present at every
sitting. Following Is his letter:
Portland, March 20. To tho Editor.) As
chairman of the committee appointed by Hon.
W. 31. Cake to Investigate charges made by
Judffe McGinn against R. R. Giltner, 1 fel
that It la my duty to correct the lmprewion
caused by the letter of J. "W. "Whalley, ac
companying; his resignation from the commit
tee, la this letter Mr. "Whalley gays: "In
asmuch as I am now convinced that ray mo
tives are neither understood, nor, I may ear.
In accordance with the .-wiehea of these seeking
eecrecy, I resign."
I do not tnink Mr. "Whalley Intended by this
statement to Insinuate that the other members
of the committee desired to proceed In aecrecr.
though this Is the Interpretation generally
placed upon his statements.
It la not my purpose to discuss the reason
why Mr. "Whalley was asked to resign from the
committee. That 1b a matter entirely between
himself and the President of the Association;
but I do desire to have It distinctly understood
that I never knew I was to be placed upon
such a. committee until my, name was an
nounced, and I think, all the members of the
committee were likewise unacquainted with the
purposes of the Investigation, and ore equally
free from, any desire to oeek -notoriety or per
ronal controversy. j .
The committee organised Nxria ire proceeding
precisely along the lines- advocated by Mr.
Whalley. It waa the unanimous opinion ot
the committee that the accused should not only
be allowed to be present and face the witnesses.
