H TS ANOTHER SKAG
Banker Refuses to Pay for
Canadian Commission.
ALL TO BE DONE OVER
Latest Vilicnval Means Few More
Months of Delay In .ctlon Al
ready Lasting 2 Years.
NEW YORK. Jan. 5. Although Mrs.
James A. Stillman is In Canada Inter
viewing: north woods witnesses and
steeling' herself for the final fight in
her divorce suit, her lawyers today
tangled with the banker's counsel and
there will be no Canadian commission
as planned on January 11. There will
be no more hearings In the suit for
several months.
The formal process of reippo'nt
ing another Canadian commission
must be repeated. Mrs. Stillman s
heralded hardships have gone for
naught. It is probable that she will
return to this city until the legal
machinery is readjusted. This is
- what happened today to upset the
Canadian drama: Counsel for Mrs
Stillman obtained an order from su
preme Court Justice Morschauser,
calling upon the banker's lawyers to
contribute $7500 for the expenses of
the Canadian commission. The Cana
dian commission was designed to take
testimony that would upset the Mrs
Htiilman-Fred Beauvais episode as
outlined by the banker. Charges
were to be made that Mr. Stlllman's
agents employed "bribery and corrup
tion."
Fred Brauvals to Testify.
r Tea tseauvais was 10 lesiuy anu
Mrs. Stillman, so the plan went,
would listen. But In the order that
Airs. Stlllman's council obtained was
the provision that if the banker's
counsel refused to pay, all hearings
would be automatically suspended
until an appeal was decided. Corne
lius J. Sullivan, chief counsel for the
banker, said that he would not pay,
Mr. Sullivan was very emphatic. The
banker, he said, in effect had con
tributed generously to the expenses
of his wife's legal forces, but this
was too much. So Mr. Sullivan will
appeal to the appellate division. He
must announce his decision to pay
or not to pay some time tomorrow,
and he said today that his mind' was
made up since the order obtained by
Mrs. Stlllman's counsel carries the
stay of proceedings. ,
AH Must Be Done Over.
If Mr. Sullivan does what he says
he will, the Canadian commission has
toppled before It has been created.
Afler the appellate division decides
upon the merits of the order, another
commission must be appointed. Spe
cifically, this means that counsel for
Mrs. Stillman once more must apply
for a commission, hold a hearing
upon it, argue the case, present
briefs, get the order and have the
commissioner appointed once more.
If the appellate division sustains
Mr. Sullivan, the course of the de
fense is more or less problematical.
Then should they still desire to hold
the Canadian hearings, they .must
either appeal the appeal or pay their
own expenses.
"I thought that Mr. Sullivan would
welcome the opportunity to hear the
charges of bribery," said John F.
Brennan, counsel for Mrs. Stillman.
"He has a -chance to cross-examine
witnesses we will put forth, but re
fusal to pay means dragging the case
and I see no advantage In this for
him. Why should we pay the ex
penses for a Canadian commission?
"We have paid sufficiently to en
able them to hold the hearings with
out additional funds." said Mr. Sul
livan. "We don't want to drag the
case. We'll try to bring the appeal
just as soon as we can, within a
week at the latest."
Mrs. Stillman will learn of the post
ponement tomorrow and the news
will doubtless come as a surprise,
for today's development was totally
unexpected by close observers of the
case. It will, however, serve to add
a few more months to the little less
than two years in which the case has
been In the court.
1925 FAIRJTO BE HELD
(fontlnueil From Firat Page.)
ference of opinion as to the method
of finance. Also It was brought out
that there Is some Ill-feeling upstate
against Tortland, but that this fee:
lng Is not as deep nor abiding as some
radicals would Imply, and further,
this feeling is largely without justifi
cation. '
Subsequently a resolution was of
fered proposing that a plan to finance
the fair be Initiated and left to the
people to decide. James B. Kerr
sketched on amendment to the effect
that a sub-committee be appointed
to work out a plan. This was about
to be adopted when Edgar B. Piper
called attention to the resolution
showing that it did not sufficiently
make clear the commitment of the
committee to carry on the 1925 fair.
The delegates instantly wanted that
fact brought out in no uncertain
terms, so Mr. Kerr redrafted his
amendment and it was adopted, there
by stressing two things:
1. The plans for the 1925 expo
sition will go forward;
2. A plan of finance will be worked
out and offered to representative state
bodies for approval and co-operation.
$3,000)000 Tax Proposed.
Herbert Gordon proposed that for
financing the fair Portland hold an
other election and vote $3,000,000 as
a. property tax. wiping out the $2.
000,000 tax voted In November; that
another million be raised by sub
scription; that in the legislature of
H23 an appropriation of $1,000,000
be asked for a state building and
exhibits and possibly another ap
propriation be asked In -1925 of the
legislature. His plan would do away
with initiating a measure in No
vember. Instant opposition to this plan came
from W. W. Harrah of Umatilla coun
ty, who declared such a programme
would make a hero of Multnomah
county and the upstate doesn't want
something for nothing, but is ready
to contribute Its just share toward
an Oregon exposition. Like sentiment
was echoed by Walter Meacham of
Baker and others.
Proposal Not Acted On.
Mr. Gordon's proposal was not
acted on, but the committee can con
sider it along with any other sug
gestions. According to J. S. Delllnger of
Astoria, Clatsop county will vote a
property tax, but in this opinion he
did not receive support from B. P.
Stone, also of Astoria. Mr. Delllnger
suggested that the gasoline tax and
the property tax both .be placed on
the November ballot ad the one re
ceiving the highest vote be adopted.
Mr. Meacham of Baker related the
condition of the farmers, stockmen
and sheepmen In that county and
said that while the people want, a
fair thiy cannot zttori to pay for it.
Also he spoke of the friction which
has arisen over freight rates and the
Umatilla-Wallula cut-off. Mr. Har
rah Indorsed Mr. Meacham's views,
saying that people are agreed they
want the fair, but conditions in Uma
tilla are not good at present and
much agitation has been raised by
the organization of taxpayers' leagues
which have become very radical.
Desire for Fair Reported.
F. G. Deckenbach of Salem report
ed that everyone wants the fair and
wants someone else to pay for It.
The gasoline finance plan he con
sidered as equitable as any. as "It
hits a large number of people at
gently as possible."
However, he called attention to an
objection to the gasoline tax which
Is that the railroads, timber owners
and similar lines would not con
tribute much to the gasoline fund,
so these will have to be reached in
another manner. C. E. Gates of Med
ford hoped the committee did not
take the action, of the Jackson county
delegation in the legislature as ex
pressing, the sentiment of the county,
saying the county was misrepre
sented, as the people who do things
In that county are for the exposition.
If the final plan calls for a subscrlp
tipn he assured the meeting that
Jackson county will contribute as
heavily as if a property tax was im
posed. State Exposition Favored.
"Hood Kiver wants to know If it is
to be a statewide exposition," Baid
Truman Butler. "If It is to be a fair
of temporary buildings, plenty of
architecture and sunken gardens
Hood liiver doesn't want it. But if it
Is to be a state exposition we are for
it, for we want the state s unde
veloped resources exploited and wc
want a million population."
"It has always been the plan to
make It an Oregon exposition," ex
plained Chairman Meier. "It Is to be
an Oregon enterprise, to exploit the
state and every corner of it. For
instance, the desire was to have a
i;ound-up at Pendleton for four
months; an international regatta at
Astoria; an international hog show
somewhere in central Oregon; an in
ternational poultry show in Marion
county; an international horse show
for 6u or 90 days, and to get the visi
tors to see Crater lake, the Oregon
caves, and, In short, all of the scenic
points and the fields and mountains
of Oregon. That has been the inten
tion from the beginning."
Portland Vote Is Cited.
The best proof that the people want
the 1925 exposition is In the three
tests it has received, said J. A. Thorn
burgh of Forest Grove. The first
test was when Portland voted 4 to 1.
the second when It was passed in the
lower house at the legislature, and
the third test was when It passed in
the state senate by a small if not a
constitutional majority. "
Senator Moser made a motion that
the finance plan be initiated for the
November election and Senator
Joseph declared that the plan of a
gasoline tax should be carried out
and submitted in November. These
motions were tabled, as it was the
sense of the committee, after de
liberation, that the finance commit
tee will first have to evolve a pro
gramme before anything more can
be done.
Some time next month the commit
tee will probably be called to hear
a report of the committee on a plan
to finance the fair.

PORT IS ASSlREl).
Voluntary Stock Subscription to
Put Project Over Mould Get
Big Contributions, lie Says.
That Jackson county Is behind the
1925 exposition and .will support it
in every ,way possible was the dec
laration of C. E. Gates, mayor of
Medford. in an address delivered yes
terday noon at the luncheon of the
Progressive . Business Men's club at
the Benson hotel. Mr. Gates said that
the action recently taken by mem
bers of the legislature Is no criterion
of the feeling in southern Oregon.
"ft it comes to a question of sup
porting the fair by a voluntary stock
subscription I am confident that our
section of the state will contribute
fully as heavily as if a tax had been
put over as a means-of financing it,'
lie saiu.
The speaker referred to the many
beauties of the state and declared
that Oregon was to a large extent
like a big art museum closed to the
public.
"What we want to do is to open up
the museum by bringing the travel
ing public here to see what we have."
he declared. "And the holding of the
1925 exposition will bring them. If
we can get the tourist crop which
the state of California now has we
don't need to worry about other
crops."
Mayor Baker, who introduced the
speaker, urged the need of team
work throughout the state, with a
view to the development of the entire
state.
Mark Daniels sang a boIo and re
sponded to an encore. He was
accompanied by Miss lluby Lloyd.
The Misses Edna and Clara Low, two
little Chinese girls, gave piano selec
tions. The committee on nominations
chose the following officers to be
voted on at the annual election next

treasurer, and Dr. William F. Ficbie.
C. W. Ertz, John A. Beckwith, T. H.

BURIED SECRETLY
Funeral of Republican Solon
Strictly Family Affair.
CEMETERY UNDER GUARD
Brief Services at Grave Veiled and
Air of Mystery Shrouds AU
Phases of Obsequies.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 5. Buried
with the greatest slmpllcity,as was
his desire, the body of Senator Pen
rose tonight rested in a brick-lined
grave in South Laurel Hill cemetery
beside that of his fatner. The grave
was devoid of flowers. Guards who
were thrown around the grave after
the undertaker's assistants had low
ered the bronxe-lined casket Into it
shortly before 9 A. M., were still there
late today.
The same great secrecy that marked
the making of the arrangements for
the funeral was -maintained until the
end. No information beyond the brief
obituary notice that the funeral would
be "strictly private" was given out.
Illln at Grave Veiled.
Onlv the late senator's three
brothers. Dr. Charles B. Richard, A. F.
and Snencer Penrose and their fam-
llieur I.fiichton C Taylor, his secre
tary, and the nurse who accompanied
the body from Washington, were in
the funeral party. As the small
cortege passed into the cemetery
rounds the gates were locked and
th MiHnti warned away by the
guards. No questions were answered
and no one was permitted to see even
from a distance the brief rites.
Mr. Taylor said tonight that there
had been a short service at the grave,
but lhat he did not know whether it
was conauctea Dy a mnuBiKi. ti
were no services at the house. Every
thing wa done in accordance with
Senator Penrose's wishes, he said.
Katate Left to Brothers.
The will of Senator Penrose, leav
inir hiK entire, estate to his three
Krthor. wa the simplest of docu
monta it was filed late today. The
estate' Is valued at "$200,000 and up
ward." but friends said it was worth
manv times that sum. There were no
niihlii? or individual bequests.
The will was written on a single
sheet of oaDer and dated June 10,
190S. It states that his entire estate
is bequeathed to hrs three brothers,
who also were named as executors.
The brothers, however, have waived
their rights as executors in favor of
a financial institution. The executors
were instructed to file "no inventory
or account of any kind of my estate.'
Newspaper: Set Watck.
Newspapers that regard the burial
of a United States senator who had
figured so largely in the political his
tory of the country as an important
piece of news, set a watch on prac
tically the same plan as death
watches are set on prominent per
sons who are believed to be dying.
A report that - Senator Penrose's
father was buried years ago at mid
night in order to avoid undue pub
licity, made the vigil of reporters
almost an all-night affair.
About 7:30 A. M. today the three
brothers arrived at the Spruce-street
home, where the senator's body lay,
and where he was born. Four auto
mobiles parked a short distance from
the house about the same time A lit
tle later Charles Penrose, who is a
physician and had attended his
brother, came out on the front step
and waved his arm and seemingly
from nowhere a' hearse approached
the house.
neporters Not Admitted.
A few minutes later the body of
the senator was brought out and the
hearse, followed by the four automo
biles, supposedly containing the fami
lies of the brothers, started for the
cemetery. P.eporters who were on
watch at tne cemetery yesterday
were not admitted today, and the
newspaper men who followed the
funeral party through a steady rain
to the last resting place of the dead
senator were warned that if they en
tered the cemetery it would be at
their own peril. Guards were sta
tioned all around the place. The fu
neral party was in the cemetery
about 15 minutes and left before 9
o'clock.
Thus was enacted the final scene
In the career of a man who could
have had one of the largest funerals
In the history of the city.
Politieal Leaders Excluded.
Political leaders from every county
In the state came to Philadelphia
within the last, few days to do honor
to the dead chieftain, and not one
was invited to the bachelor home of
the senator where many ' political
conferences have been held.
Questions had been asked wfcy the
family desired secrecy in the burial
of the senator, and the answer of
close political friends was that Mr.
Penrose hated pomp and ceremony,
and that It probably was his wish
that he be buried as simply and with
as little commotion as possible. It
is said to have been a tradition in the
Penrose family, which is one of the
oldest in the city, that all funerals
of members be strictly private.
