whether they be true or false.
Since leaving the force here, Pal
mer has been employed at the plant

LAST RITES FOR |
JUSTICE HARLAN
Obsequies in Washington Attend
ed by Prominent Officials

Washington, Oct. 17.-Impressive
simplicity, typical of his useful life
and his distinguished service upon
the bench, marked today the funeral
of Associate Justice John Marshall
Harlan, of the United States Su-
preme Court, which was held from
the New York Avenue Presbyterian
Church, at o'clock.
A notable gathering was present to
pay a final tribute of respect to the
"Grand Old Man of the Judiciary"
who, for more than third of a CEN
fury, occupied seat upon the most
august tribunal in the world.
Members of the Cabinet, the judi
ciary, diplomatic representatives, re-
nowned lawyers, officers of the army
and navy, veterans of the civil war,
churchmen, and hundreds of promi-
nent citizens packed the edifice.
Justice Harlan's associates on the
Supreme Court bench acted as pail
bearers, escorting the body from the
home to the church and thence to
Rock Creek cemetery, where inter-
ment was in private.
The love and esteem in which JUS
tice Harlan was held was indicated
by glance over the sorrowing audi
ence. In the reserved pews sat rep
resentatives from all the courts in
the Capital. The members of the In
terstate Commerce Commission, the
Commerce Court, the Customs Court,
the Court of Claims, and the Su-

of the District were in attendance.

New York Avenue Presbyterian
Church, of which Justice Harlan had
been the beloved teacher for many
years, attended. There also was pre-
sent a delegation representing the
District Commandery of the Military
Order of the Loyal Legion.
In addition, the reserved pews con-
tanned members of the Presidents
Cabinet, representatives from the
Diplomatic Corps, army and navy
officials, and the board of directors
and officials of the Garfield Hospital,
on whose board Justice Harlan had
served as president.

counts alone had been found.
1t was further stated that other
Irregularities might also be found.
A glance at the accounts of 1905, for
instance, showed one item of over
$1,000 that had been paid over to
the treasurer and had not been en-

Gillian was unreliable, at least as
far back as 1905, that it was unani-

Messrs. Boudar to investigate the ac-
counts of the treasurer, not only in

regard to all that he had '-.ndled

allowed to state to the board that
he was ready to make good any de-
felt that might be discovered. He
declared thu he wished was that
the matter b. st j. right-that he
wanted whatever -, right to be
done.
DR.. Gillian is a man far advanced
in years, and the belief prevails
among his friends that the irregu-
larities appearing in his accounts
may be accounted for by the loose
and carless methods into which
most old people are apt to slip.
