IK HOTEL DISPUTE Circuit Judre L.. G. Lewelline handed down a decision In court yesterday sustaining the demur rer filed by James and Paris Linn, majority - stockholders - in the Marion Hotel company, as de fendants in the suit to foreclose on the hotel's bonds. Tbe complaint was filed by Thomas A. Roberts as personal trustee for the bondholders. The judge's decision sustained the ar gument of John H. Carson, at torney for the defendants, that Roberts as personal trvstee, had no authority under- tbe trust agreement to Institute the bond foreclosure proceedings. Carson contended that the cor porate trustee was tbe only one who could under the agreement institute such proceedings, unless 51 per cent of the bondholders undertook tbe suit themselves. Under the agreement the First National . Bank in Salem was named corporate trustee, but lat er resigned and the position was taken over by the First National Bank of Portland.

Todajr finds the World Champion Cards two games ahead ot the Giants; and two and a half games In front of the Cubs. The Pirates apparently shot their pennant bolt when their fine winning-streak snapped recently. They are now eight games behind the league leading Cardinals, but still capable of throwing plenty of monkey wrenches into the well laid plans of Messrs. Bill Terry, Charlie Grimm and "Farmer Frank Frisch. 0 PAID FINAL IIS BRUSSELS, Sept. 3.-UP) - The body of 29-year-old Queen Astrid was buried beside those of Bel gian monarchs today in the royal crypt under Laeken church. Beside it was placed a wreath of her favorite flowers orchids a final gift from her husband. King Leopold. Leopold himself, dry-eyed and his face pale and drawn, limped behind the hearse on the journey of nearly three - miles from the palace to Ste. Gudule cathedral. He was bare-headed and his right arm was in a sling. Once be stumbled and nearly fell on the cobblestoned street. Near Leopold walked other members of European royalty, in cluding the Duke of York, repre senting Great Britain. Only the clattering of hoofs and sobs from the crowd of more than 300,000 Belgians broke the sil ence. The funeral, was held six days after an automobile driven by Leopold overturned in Switzer land, killing the queen. ? - Princess in White Seven - year - old Princess Jose phine Charlotte, eldest of Astrid's three children, sat at her father's right on a throne inside the cathe dral choir. She was clad wholly in white,; in contrast to the dark robed women and brightly uni formed princes. Tears rolled down her cheeks at times. Leopold buried his face in his hands : during part of the service. As the ermine-lined coffin, cov ered with the Belgian tri- color and Astrid's crown on a cushion before it was taken to Laeken, the king, who was scheduled to enter a coach, . decided to walk the nearly three miles alone be hind the hearse. In coaches and ears were Dowager Queen Elizabeth, widow ed 18 months ago when Leopold's father. King j Albert was killed while mountain climbing, and other relatives and royal guests. After the service at Laeken tbe family alone witnessed the lower ing of the coffin. A salvo of 19 shots, the toll ing of bells and a bugle call sig nalled the end of the Journey to Laeken. X. .
