Dieces of shell and innumerable bullets were imbedded in it.

At the foot of the coffin stood the bronze figure of a woman, "Illi nois Welcoming the World." On this waa placed the great wreath of or chids presented by the members of the Lincoln Memorial Commission. On the .bier was President Wilson's wreath. Other memorial offerings were from Robert T. Lincoln, Charles W. Fair banks, ex-Vice-President, who served nany years In the Senate with Mr. :Cullom. and from the State National -Sank of Springfield, of which Mr. Col lom was president when, 30 years ago he began his long service in the Senate. There were at least two figures of Interest in the lines which walked slowly through the Capitol today. Josiah Beard and Colonel John A. Pat- tee, a Gettysburg- veteran, followed Lincoln to Oakridge Cemetery 49 years ago as one of the great military escort under General Joseph Hooker Tomor row he will be in the Cullom train. Beard is 87 years old, two years older than the late Senator at the time of bis death. Only Four Intimates Survive. ' "I think I was the first man here to be Introduced to Mr. Cullom when he came here with a letter of Introduc tion to Lincoln In 1858," said Mr. Beard, It was State Fair week and he and a friend of mine named "Whitmore had Just arrived after being delayed up the line by a train wreck." Of Mr. Cullom'a Intimate associates ct early days In this city oclv tour survive. They are Dr. William Jayne, John W. Bunns, Dr. George W. Pass field and William Rldgely. Excepting Ridgely all were confined to their homes by the storm today and it is doubtful if they will be able to attend the funeral tomorrow. Despite the nation-wide tribute to Mr. Cullom the scene in the statehouse was one of the greatest gloom and loneliness after the doors were closed to the public tonight. The dark cor ridors were dimly lighted and only a tew militiamen, relieving each other at intervals, moved in the deep shadow of the coffin and the symbolic bronze figure over it. Doors were seldom opened, for this admitted drafts, which swept the cor ridors and intensified the aspect of Wintry isolation of the distinguished dead and those who watched. Funeral services win be held tomor row at 2:30 o'clock in the Hall of Representatives. BAKER PEOPLE C0-0PRATE Pollotving Visit of Portland Men Big Rally Is Arranged. BAKER, Or., Sin. 31. (Special.)

CASES WILL BE STUDIED Wlien Individual Causes Are Ascer tained, Woman Will Attend Hear ings and See That They Are Presented Properly. DENVER, Jan. 31. Mrs. Ben B. Lindsey, bride of the judge of the Juvenile Court whose fame is Nation wide, has celebrated her return to Denver by appointing herself an "as sistant judge" in her husband's court. She will serve without- pay, and is working from combined love of her husband and of the work he is doing. She began by taking a bride, 17 years old, in her arms and advising hec how to treat a husband. In addition, Mrs. Lindsey in an interview outlined her ideas on the care of Denver children. "I am going to visit all the proba tion officers," she said, "and I mean to learn the individual cause of each case that comes before my husband's court. Then I am going to attend the hearings and see that the facts are presented properly. I love children and I believe that In most cases the bad child is bad because he has not had a chance to be good." Before her marriage to the Judge, in Chicago, December 20 last, Mrs. Lindsey was Miss Henrietta Brevoort, step daughter of Dr. J. F. Clippert, of Detroit. SEATTLE BANKERS BUSY EFFORT BEING HADE! TO RAISES CAPITAL FOR FEDERAL BANK. State Institutions of Oregon. Montana, Idaho and Washington Are Asked to Subscribe f 1,500,000. SEATTLE, Jan. 31. (Special.) The Joint committee, which presented Seat tle's claims for a regional bank to the Federal Reserve Board Thursday, to day let it be known that efforts are being made to induce the state bank of Washington, Oregon, Montana, and Idaho to subscribe the $1,600,000 eapl tal needed to bring the total for the proposed Seattlo bank to the required 4. 000,000 minimum. Figures show that If a fair major ity of these banks subscribe, the de sired capital will be obtained. The joint committee represents the new Chamber of Commerce and the Seattle Clearing-House Association- All the largest state banks in Seattle have expressed their intention of sub scribing to the Federal reserve system, although they have not yet intimated how soon that will be. Secretary McAdoo's assertion during the beattle hearing that the commis sion cannot depend on whether the state banks may or may not subscribe in making its decision, may well be taken as a method adopted by the Gov rrnment to urge the state banks to get in line, rather than as a danger on Seattle's chances. This Is the tip which the Joint committee Is working on. The biggest difficulty is the apparent disregard for Seattle's claims shown by Idaho and Montana. On the other hand it is considered that more than half the state banks will subscribe. WASHINGTON BANKERS TO ACT Ruling State Banks Can Enter Re serve Prompts Capital to Be Sought. OLYMPIA, Wash..

Farmers in the vicinity were notified by telephone and hurried to the assistance of the victims, taking the most seriously injured to hospitals In Joliet and Lockport and the others to their homes. . . Report Says Government Would Be I nder So Restriction to Limit Lines to Territory That Will Afford Profit. WASHINGTON, Jan. 31.-rGovern- ment monopolization of telegraph, tele phones and wireless communication. and such other means of transmission of intelligence as may hereafter de velop,' is recommended in a report sub mitted to the Senate today by Postmaster-General Burleson. Immediate Government ownership of telephone lines is recommenced, with a system of license for the other agencies of communication, establish ing a Government monopoly even where there is npt actual ownership. The report is that made to the Post master-General by a special committee appointed by him and was transmitted to the Senate in response' to a resolu tion asking that he make an Investi gation of the subject as an extension of the postal service. Farmer Lines Let Alone. The report recommends immediate acquisition by purchase at appraised value of the "commercial telephone network," except the farmer lines. It would provide that the Postmaster- General mj issue revocable licenses to private individuals to operate lines not acquired by the Government. The report says that the United States "is alone of the leading nations which has left to private enterprise the ownership and operation of the tel egraph and telephone facilities," and that practically all- of the economists who have treated the subject . are agreed that telegraph and telephone facilities should be controlled by the Government. It declared further that Theodore N. Vail, president of the American Tele phone & Telegraph Company, by his statement that the telephone business must be "under common control," and sufficiently strong to constitute prac tically one system, inter-communication, inter-dependent, universal," has himself pointed out-that the 'most ef ficient telephone service can be at tained only under a condition of monopoly. All People to Be Served. Pointing out that the Government- directed service would be more nearly universal, the report adds: The private monopoly has no In centive to extend Its facilities to un profitable territory; but the Govern ment must serve all the people. This universal service is accomplished by the equalization of rates. In fixing rates the policy of this Government is to super-impose no change for taxa tion, but only to see to It that the service, as a whole is self-supporting. The . private mononoly, on the other hand, must make a profit, and, in pro viding for this, tends to increase its rates to the highest price that will not, by too greatly restricting the volume of business. Impair the aggregate profit. "According to the best available data. the capitalization of the long-distance and toll lines represents approximately fZOO.000,000 and the capitalization of the entire commercial network approx imately $900,000,000. The cost to the Government would be less than the ap praised, vaiue, since it would be unde sirable for the Government to pur chase the real estate holdings of the companies. Exchanges could be leased until accommodations could be oro- vided in the postoffices and stations." OFFICIALS HUNT DEER OREGON GAME COMMISSION MEM BERS ARB IN HILLS. Wklte-Talled Specimen Wanted . for Colleettoa Being; Made by State Department. BEND, Or., Jan. 81. (Special.) "Stanley ' G. Jewett, chief of scientific investigations of the Oregon Fish and Game Commission, and field assistant Murie are in. the Davis Lake country on the east side of the Cascades, in Crook County, about 40 miles south west of Bend," writes John Riis, Depu ty Game Warden of Crook County. "They are camped in from four to five feet of snow, miles from any habita tion, as Game Warden Flnley wishes to secure a specimen of the white- tailed or as It is commonly called, the 'tiag-talled deer, to add to the collec tion which the Commission has been getting together for the past few years. "This collection contains hundreds of specimens of birds and animals native to Oregon. unfortunately, the Com mission has at present no suitable quarters in which to house them and the greater part of the skins .are in pickle" at the tanner's in Portland. The task of collecting, classifying and da termining the distribution by species of the native birds and animals is one of the most important projects under taken by the Fish and Game Commis sion. "Mr. Jewett. in charge of the present expedition, was formerly connected with the United States Biological Sur vey. He states that the flag-tailed deer is rarely found in Oregon and re sembles the deer of the New Kngland states more closely than It does the white-tailed deer of the Middle West. 'This Is the region in which Bill Rogers, of the Portland baseball club, passed the Winter of 1912 trapping, and It abounds in cougar, marten, bob cat, otter, mink and fox. The Davis Lake country is almost inaccessible in the Winter and Mr. Jewett and party were driven from Bend to La Pine In a wagon. From La Pine, the party drove to the mouth of Davis Creek on the Deschutes River and there the team was abandoned be cause of the deep snow and the bal ance of the trip made on snow shoes."
