GENERAL FUNSTON
 BURIED NEAR SON
A DRENCHlNG RAIN DID NOT PRE- VENT PAYING TRIBUTE TO
 DISTINGUISHED DEAD.
The Entire Route of the Funeral Pro- eession Extended Through Portions of the City Which Owed Their Immunity From Destruction at Time of Earthquake 10 Fuoston's Men.

San Francisco, Feb. 2l.-ln accord with his wishes General Funston was buried near his son, Arthur MacAr- thur Funston
 From early in the day. when the triple balconies of the city halls To- tunda were packed with citizens gag ing at the guarded casket at the foot Of the great marble staircase, until past midday, the ceremonies ran. 4 drenching rain hour after hour slani- ed across the ranks of the military escort. The streets. seemingly de serted. became alive with citizens as ihe llagwrapped caskel was horne from the city hall on an artillery cais- son 10 the First Presbyterian church and thence to the cemetery.
 The route lay along Van Ness ave nue lined on one side with ola dme mansions, which escaped destruction because in the great fire of 1906 Gen eral Funston's engineers dynamited the buildings on the opposite side of the street and checked the flames. The entire route of the funeral procession extended through portions of the city which owed their immunity from de struction largely 10 the efforts of "Funston's men" and his hillside grave overlooks the camping grounds where slept thousands of refugees whom he fed sheltered and clothed. Hundreds of these were preesnt at the cemetery today and persistently sought memen- tos of the last rites for the man who to them was the greatest general of all Women braved the sentries to pick from the grass the empty shells fired in the last saluate and crowded around the grave until it was found neces sary to set a special guard which will remain throughout tomorrow.
 One other token remained of the sentiment which bound citizens and soldiers. The sick in the county hos. pital found at their bedsides late to- day flower sand blossoms which were sent by the generals friends and had been heaped on his casket in the church during the services there,
 The simplicity of the funeral ar rangements which the generals friends regarded as harmonizing with his own utter lack of display was in- tensified when before daylight Gener- al ].

THREAT MAIZE TO KEEP
 SENATE IN SESSION SUNDAY
Democrats Charge That the RepubiI- cans Are Delaying Matters to Try and Force an Extra Session of Con- oress After March 4--Fights Likely on Other Bills.

Washington, Feb. 24.-One of the most spectacular filibusters the capi. tal has seen in years kept the senate Tn session until midnight tonight and was broken down when republican leaders directing secured pledge from the democrats that the admins tration revenue bill would not be urg- ed to vote until Wednesday.
 The democrats, facing what they de. clared was a republican attempt to break down the administration pro gram and force an extra session of congress after Marcs 4, had threaten- ed to keep the senate in continuous session over sunday, if that was found necessary to secure passage of the revenue measure.
 During the afternoon and evening the debate went far afield from reye- nue and hot exchanges between demo- crats and republicans led into drar matic discussion of the international situation and of President Wilson's policy in the submarine crisis.
 For a time 1t seemed certain that the parliamentary struggle would proe lon the session at least we'll into Sun day but late at night some of the lead CTS of the republican side let it be known that they did not favor car rying tho fight to the extrent of eIa- barrassir.g the country by killing the revenue bill anGsthus weakening pre- paration for defens-S After two or three peace proposals had been re- jected by the democrpts the republi can leaders submitted proposition for a vote Weduesdak nig1s aszss o'clock on condition thy in the mean time appropriation bhss may be brought up by unanimous consent.

was given particular attention because 1t is understood here, that the vessel virtually were in the service or the Dutch government. A serious crisis is expected to result though it is real. ized that Holland would be loath to risk the consequence of actual hostil- tties with Germany because most of her canals, comprising her main line of defense, are reported frozen and in no condition to flood the necessary districts. A large body of German troops also is understood to be con centrated on the frontier.
 Officials here are watching very closely the attitude of the European neutrals. Hollands situation is re garded now as the most desperate with foodstuffs so scare that slaughter Of her immense cattle droves is con. templated as the only way out. Swed. en is reported in the throes of bitter dissension as to the sending out of Swedish ships to face the German sea K already been reported as heavy losers. Spain is known to have reached a ser ious stage in her relations with Ger many while Switzerland has been forced to adopt a war rations program with two meatlcss days week and other restrictions.
 Senator Falls resolution points to the restriction on the commerce of the United States by submarines of the central powers and authorizes the president "to instruct and direct the commanders of the vessels belonging to the United States, to protect all property, and to take seize or bring into port powers and destroy if unable to seize any armed vessels of either of the central powers and particularly of the German government which have committed or are threatening to. com init depredations against ships con veying Americans or American prop erty.
 lt would make it legal also for the commander and crew of any merchant American vessel to oppose and de- fend against any search, restraint seizure or attack, which shall be at tempted on such vesser' by any armed ship of the central powers.
 On the army side the president would be authorized "in the event of a declaration of war against the Unit ed States" or of invasion or of inl- minent danger of invasion discovered in his opinion to exist" before the next session of congress, to call into service in addition to the regular army and the national guard, 500,000 men to serve not more than three years or during the continuance of the existing diff. ferences" with the central powers. The president also would be given au. thority to accept volunteers and to organize the 500,000 men called into the proper service branches and to of ficer them when the senate is not in session by his commission alone
 The resolution says that when Ger many and her allies shall disayow" and cause their commanders to re- frain from the lawloss depredations and outrages hitherto encouraged and authorized" and shall cause the laws of nations to be observed" then the commanders of merchant ships may be directed "to Jubmit to any regular search" by central power war vessels and to refrain from "any force or character
 The act would continue in force for six months "and until the end of the next session of congress thereafter" |"
