STRANGE Sc
CRECY ABOUT PEN
ROSE FUNERAL
Body Laid to Rest Without Funeral
Plans Becoming Known--No In
formation Given Out.

Philalciphia, Jan 5.-The funeral q
Senator Boise penrose was held this
morning. The same great secrecy that
surrounded 7he making Of arrange
ments for the funeral was maintained
until the body was lowered into tho
brick lined grave in South Laurel Hill
cemetery. No information was forth
coming whether there were any re.
ligious services at the house or at the
cemetery. Reporters were not admit
ted to the burial ground.
The fact that the body would be
buried to-day became known late yes
terday when the bureau Of vital statis-
tics issued a permit for interment for
Jan. 5 or thereafter.
The immediate family Of Senator
Penrose consists OF three bnpthers. No
information was given out regarding
the funeral beyond the brief obituary
notice that the funeral would be strict
ly private. A report that Senator Pen
roses father was buried years ago at
midnight in order to avoid undue pub
licity made the vigil Of reporters al
most an all,night affair.
About T.30 a. m. to-day, the three
brothers, Charles B.. Richard and Spen-
Ger, arrived at the Spencer street home,
where the senator's body lay and
where he was born Four automobiles
parked short distance from the house
about the same time. A little later
Charles Penrose, who is physician
and had attended his brother, came out
on the front step and waved his arm,
and hearse approached the house.
a few minutes later the body Of the
senator was brought out by an under
takers assistant and the hearse, fol-
lowed By the four automobiles, sup
posedly containing the families Of the
three brothers. started for the ceme-
terry. Reporters who were on watch
at the cemetery yesterday were not
admitted today and the newspaper
men who followed the funeral party
through steady rain to the last rest
ing place Of the senator were warned
that if they entered the cemetery IL
would be of their own peril. Guards
were stationed all around the place.
The funeral party was in the cemetery
about Is minutes.
Thus was enacted the final scene in
The career Of man who could have
mad one of the largest funerals in the
history of the city. Political leaders
rom every county IN the state came
o Philadelphia within the last few
lays to do honor to the dead chieftain,
md not one was invited 70 the bachelor
rome Of the senator where many po-
itical conferences have been held.

WINS NEW POINT
AGAINST PELLETIER
District Attorney Permitted to Secure
Oral Deposition from Woman
at St. Louis.

Boston Jan. 5.--A commission au-
thorizing an oral deposition by Mrs.
Agnes Il. Roehl of st. Louis for use il,
the trial Of District Attorney Joseph
c. Pelleticr on charges Of misconduct,
was given Attorney General j. Weston
Allen by the supreme court to-day. 1t

A certified statement that Israel
Manovitz was sentenced from the bor-
ough Of Brooklyn, April 25, 1921, to
serve two years in Sng Sing prison for
burglary, was submitted by the attor-
ney general at the resumption Of testi-
mony to-day ON the charge that Mr..
Pellctier neglected to prosecute Nance
vitz in the Suffolk county courts be-
tween December, 1919, and March, 1920.
Further examination of witnesses
who testified against Mancovitz before
the grand jury here in March, 1920,
was objected to by counsel for Pelle-
tier on the grounds that the district
attorney and not 1Iancoyitz was on
trial. A transcript of the proceedings
before the grand jury had previously
been entered in the records, and at the
courts suggestion this line Of inquiry
was stopped.
William L, Evans, who said his home
in Dorchester was robbed by Nance
vitz, testified that David Mancovitz, a
brother of the alleged burglar, who at
the time was an assistant district at
torney, told him he could do nothing
in the matter when the witness asked
why there had been no trial of the
burglary charges.

1t is the contention of the govern
ment that the police officer surprised
Loud and a woman in Loud's automo-
bile on the lonely Lowell road in
Wakefield and that when the patrol
men indicated his intention to prose-
cute, he was shot and killed.
Discussion over this, and other briefs
on points of law introduced at this

much of the forenoon il chambers,
while the court room was crowded and
hundreds waited in the rain outside
for an opportunity to hear the first of
the testimony.
The jury, drawn Tuesday. spent
yesterday looking over the ground OF
the shooting the alleged flight and the
route said to have been taken by Loud
in returning TO his home from the
place where his automobile was found
abandoned.
Another of the briefs filed by coun-
sci for Loud objected to the introduc-

operators license card, bearing the
name Of Loud, which was found in the
pockets Of Patrolman Preston.
