SOME NOTABLE FEATURES
OF Mr.. GALLAGHER'S FUNERAL
(Contribu.ed.)
To the Editor of THE NEWS:

To the Editor of THE NEWS:
There were some features of the
splendid funeral service over the
remains of the late Thomas Gallagher,
roadmaster of the Nevada Northern,
on Tuesday, that will comfort the
children of deceased if you will permit
me brief space in your newspaper to
describe them.
At half past two O'Clock on Tuesday,
after the bell of the Sacred Heart
chapel had tolled for half an hour, the
funeral cortege moved into the chapel
and the body was placed before the
altar Rev. Father Won Rec hegan
Immediately the impressive rites of the
Catholic Church and when he had fin
ished he addressed those present, show
ing it in his impressive manner that
this life is not mans aim, but to seek
the knowledge, the love and service of
God. And from all he had learned the
deceased had done this. Therefore we
might confidently hope that he had ac-
complished the task set him by his
creator, and hence that, through sud-
denly called to account, he was now
enjoying the reward of his faithfulness.
After the sermon the solemn pro-
cession wended its way to the grave
yard, where, near to the entrance gate,
a resting place was prepared for Mr.
Gallagher.
Here, Father Won Rec, still dressed
in his church robes, blessed the grave
and gave the last solemn absolution to
the deceased.

New York
STEVENS IS IN LINE
President Has Had His Eye on ShOnt's
Scalp Ever Since the Panama
COmmiSSary Scandal
Last Year
"spEclAL To TIE NEWS"

Washington, Jan. 25. Theodore P.
Shonts, president of the Clover Leaf
Railroad, who has had tempestuous
career as head of the Isthmian Canal
Commission for more than year, has
decided to separate himself from the
enterprise and a $4,000 salary. 1t is
announced from the White House that
his resignation will be accepted, to be-
come effective March 4. 1t is unoffic-
tally stated that his salary as head of
the New York subway will be 500, 200.
Mr.. Shonts is on his way West to de-
liver a speech at Kansas City.
Because of the frequent rumors of
his dissatisfaction over certain features
of the construction work of the canal
and the determined opposition of the
Senate to Shonts, the impression is ere
ated that the resignation is not distaste-
full to the President.
This belief is emphasized by the fact
that in correspondence made public
from the White House the President
GADI ICooCo tLiC CAtl ClIiC lCldCCdIiSC Will
which he accepts the resignation and
congratulates Shonts upon his new bus
mess connections.
The opinion is further strengthened
by the knowledge that when Chief En-
gineer Wallace sent the President his
resignation to accept the business ma l.
agement of the same Belmont-Ryan
syndicate, he was interrogated in the
presence of stenographer by Secre-
tary Taft and Special Counsel Crom-
well. This was reported to the Presi-
ident by the Secretary in lengthy
statement.
Shonts' real troubles began shortly
after he assumed Office as Chairman of
the Panama Canal Commission, when
he called for bids for conducting the
canal commissaries and permitted
twenty -four hours to elapse between
the reception of the first bids rendered
and the final bid, submitted by Jacob
Markle of Nebraska, which was accept
ed. 1t turned out that the successful
bid contained verbatim paragraphs
copied from an earlier bid, submitted
by Hudgins & Dumas, of New York,
and the latter firm protested vigorously
to the President-so vigorously, indeed,
that Congressional inquiry resulted,
at which it developed that Shonts,
Markle, and son of Senator Millard
of Nebraska (the Chairman of the Sen
ate Committee on the Isthmian CanaD
were in collusion to have this contract
awarded to the Union Pacific lunch
counter man. AS result of the agita-
tion the Markle contract was cancelled.
The President seemingly upheld
Shonts during this period, but close
personal friends have known his views
and no surprise is manifested in we'll
informed quarters at the sequel to the
scandal.
