LATE CHIEF OF
SUPREME COURT
IS LAID AT REST
Bjr George R. Holmes) ;
'.Washington, May 21. (I; N. S.)
-With the same lack of ostentation
that marked his long and useful life,
Edward Douglass White, ninth chief
justice of the United States supreme
court; was laid to his long rest to
day. ' The services for the noted Jurist were
impressive in their simplicity, in keep
ing with the character of Justice White,
as Washington had learned to know it
In the more than 30 years of his official
life here. Save for the presence of the
- highest officials of the government, the
president, the Vice president; members
of the cabinet, senators and represent-
- Uvea, officers of the army and navy and
foreign diplomats, the funeral 'of the
late chief Justice today might well have
- been that of any other Catholic citizen
well beloved by his fellow men.
FLAGS AT HALF HAST
Only the flags drooping at half mast
' in the May sunshine and the quiet which
" prevailed around governmental depart
- ments and courts, closed In honor of the
dead, gave mute testimony of the sorrow
of official Washington at the passing
of one of Its greatest members, one who
had served the government well for
more than three decades.
All over the world, wherever the
American flag flies today, the govern
- ment officially spoke its sorrow at the
-. death of .fustic White. American army
: posts from Alaska to Panama, from
China to the Rhine, fired a salute of 17
guns In his honor at I o'clock this morn
ing. Navy posts and every warship on
j the seas which could be reached with
wireless orders did likewise, . In every
country where the United States main
tains official representation the flag
hangs at halt mast and will continue to
so hang foe 10 days.
SERVICES ARE SIMPLE
The simple services were conducted
- from - St. .Matthews church, but a few
blocks from the home of the late Jus-
' tice In Rhode Island avenue.
The venerable rector of the church.
the flight Rev. Monsignor Thomas S.
Lee, was celebrant of the high mass
of requiem. He had been a close friend
and neighbor of the chief Justice for
1 many years. They had much in com
mon. Chief Justice White was descended
from a long line of distinguished Jurists
. and Catholic pioneers in Louisiana. The
Celebrant. Monsignor Le, likewise typi
fied the Old Catholic life of the nearbyi
state of Maryland, being a greai-grana-son
of Charles Carroll of Carrollton,
last survivor of the signers of the
Declaration of Independence.
Following the conclusion of the brief
services at St. Matthews, the body was
taken to Oakhill cemetery in George
town for burial. Accompanying it as
' honorary pallbearers were the eight sur.
viving members of the supreme court
Justices McKenna, Holmes, Day, Van
Devanter, Pitney, McReynolds, Bran
dels and Clark the first three of whom
had served on the bench with the dead
justice upward of 20 years.
Local Court Adjourns
As a mark of respect to Chief Justice
White, whose funeral was nem tooay in
w,MnrtAn. D. C Federal Judge Bean
n-AAi-tri that the local United States
court adjourn all day today, "It is fit
ting that this court adjourn," the judge
said, "as during the S7 years which
Chief Justice White occupied the bench,
he- distinguished himself as a fearless,
able and conscientious judge.'-'

the. convention of the national associa
tion for this city In 1925. Other North
western states are cooperating In this
movement, according to ' Charles Full
man, president of the Oregon associa

Conestoga Disabled,
Lost in j Trough of
Sea, Captain's View
Mechanical trouble, causing the ship
to fall off into the trough of the sea,
is given by Captain Ernest O. Hetnrtci,
port captain of the Columbia-Pacific Co..
as the cause of the loss of the naval
tug Conestoga.
The Conestoga left Mare Island navy
yard, bound for Samoa, the latter part
of March and was reported as hove to
some 600 miles off Honolulu during the
gale Of April 8. Since that time no word
has been received of her.
Built in 1904 for the Reading railroad,
she was used for towing coal barges on
the Atlantic coast. Captain Heinrlcl
stated.' At the beginning of the war she
was commandeered for a naval tug and
has been In the service since.
Serving as a lieutenant In the navy.
Captain Heinrici commanded the Cones
toga during the war and afterwards
when she was doing harbor duty at
POnta Degarda In the Astores. He stated
the ship was a sturdily hullt craft with
a powerful set of engines. At the time
he served on her 'the crew,' Including
officers, numbered 48.
That some difficulty was experienced
With the engines or perhaps the steering
gear, causing the ship to fall into the
trough and capsized during the gale that
was sweeping the sea at that time is
what Captain Heinrici believes hap
pened to the ship.

CITY FOSTER ROAD
PLAN TO BE PUT
UP TO P. R. L & P.
A. L. Barbur, commissioner of
public works, has arranged for a con
ference Monday with representatives
of the Portland Railway, Ught &
Power company to discuss matters
pertaining to the company in the
prospective Improvement of Foster
road. ; : ' !
For a distance of about 20 blocks the
electric line has a private right of way
abutting the properties on the south side
of Foster road. This means that the
residents on the south side, along this
stretch, have no direct frontage on Fos
ter road, but must cross the railroad
tracks to reach It. ,;; J- .
Commissioner Barbur advocates the
granting of a right of way in the center
of Foster road for a relocation of the
electric car tracks, in lieu of the private
right of way, and taking this- strip
into the street area.' r
Heretofore the street railway officials
have opposed this plan, but if they con
tinue in this attitude Commissioner
Barbur says the city will lay a cement
sidewalk along the railway private right
of way and 'assess the property for its
cost, and that the railway also wilt be
required to lower Its tracks at street
Intersections to conform to the new
grade of Foster road after it Is im
proved.

over the week-end until the lull Monday,
The fall in the Snake river at Lewie
ton - amounted to .8 of a foot this

was due to the cool weather which
Southern Idaho has had for the last
several days. The weather i bureau says
that warmer weather is' t in prospect
and- that the flood will come up
rapidly again. But the j decrease in
the ' Snake will tend to stay the rise

at a steady rate. At Wena tehee the rise
this morning was 1.4 feet.) at Umatilla
Lt feet and at The Dalles, 1.7 feet.

Farm lands along the Columbia and
Willamette sloughs are inundated, base

New Rates Cannot"'
Become Effective
Before July First
That July 1 Is the earliest date when
the modified rates prescribed by the
interstate commerce commission in the
Columbia basin ease may become ac
tually effective, is the prediction of jr.
H. Lothrop, manager of the Portland
Traffic and Transportation association.
"1 Judge by the progress made in pre
paring the tariffs and by the fact that
some SO complicated tariffs, printed at
various points throughout the country,
must be assembled by Sam Henry of the
North Paclflo freight bureau and shipped
to the interstate commerce commiss'or
In one bundle," said Lothrop.
"Naturally one becomes impatient with
the delays, especially after the promise
that the effective date of the new tariffs
would be June 20. But when we have
to wait a week or two we can console
ourselves with the thought that the peo
ple of Portland and the Interior waited
for justice for many years."
