COLORFUL SANCTUARY
ERECTED ON HILLTOP
Papal Legate Carries Ornate 0sten-

Pontifcial Procession.

by tne AsSoclatcq IfeSS.
MUNDELEIN, ILL.,, June PA first
century scene overlaid with the pomp,
wealth and splendor of the twentieth
century church was presented today
in the Climactic ceremonies of the
Twenty.eighth International Eucha-
ristic Congress.
More than 100000 people gathered
on the shores of st. Mary's Lake
to worship at solemn pontifical high
mass celebrated by Cardinal Bonzano,
the papal legate, to hear the word of
God expounded by Cardinal Hayes
of New York, and to see the eucharis-
tic procession, which concluded the
great ecclesiast stical festival.
Four days of pageantry and thronCs
were dwarfed by the multitudes which
assembled at st. Mary-of-the-Lake
Seminary today. The procession, more
than three miles long. began at the
huge outdoor sanctuary soon after
noon and wound slowly through a
parted sea of humanity in a four-mile
course about the seminary grounds.
Procession Occupies Afternoon.
Under a brilliant sun and cloudless
sky, the procession spread dazzling
panorama of color about the circum-
ference of the lake from high noon
until the lenGthening shadows of late
afternoon fell over the reverent
thr0ngs.
Immediately following the address
from Cardinal Hayes, arose the
Gregorian chant of the 'Credo," the
creed of the great Nicene General
Council of the church, beginning ma
jestically with the words Il believe in
one God, the Father Almighty" and
ending with "One. Holy. Catholic and
Apostolic Church." and THE life of
the world to come"
The offertory reached, the chimes
in the steeple above were substituted
for the usual warning tinkle of sane
uary bells which, indoors, tells of
offering up of the bread and wine. The
legate, taking in his hands the bread
and lifting his eyes to Heaven, repeat
ed the words of Christ at the Last
Supper:
This is My body"

TOOK CASE AT 2.47

WASHINGTON, Dec. Is. = Up - The
Fall-DohenN oil conspiracy case to-
night was in the hands of tn ejury.
At 8 o'clock the jurors had been de-
liberating more than six hours. They
were given the case at 2:47 p. m. by
Justice Hoehling, who announced later
that if there was no verdict by mid
night he would order them locked up
for the night.
The jurors maintained silence, for
four hours, then opened the door of
their drab little room to order dinners
for 12. When the trays arrived they
were. slipped into the room and the
jury sank again into the oblivion of
their guarded quarters.
Justice Hoehling left his chambers
for dinner, returning at o'clock to
resume his vigil. Albert B. Fall and
Edward L. Doheny, the two defendants,
also left the court room for dinner at
their hotel.
They were accompanied by members
of their families and their attorneys.
On their return, the defendants passed
the time chatting with friends and
counsel, Doheny seated in the crowded,
buzzing court room and Fall ambling
up and down the smoke-fogged cor
ridors with hand in each pocket like
a cattle man waiting for stock car
on narrow guage spur.
AS time-killer, some of the younger
members of Doheny's family organized
a card game in one of the witness
rooms. There they were Joined by

thoughts of some of the younger folk
from the trial and one by one they

Brunswick parliament of bribery
charges, State Senator Frederick W.
Hinskly said tonight, after word had
been received from Fredericton, N. b.,
that the official records on The inves-
tigation into the st. John Valley and
Quebec railway matter involving
Gould, were missing from the files.
Senator Hinckley said Ae had been
unaware of this investigation until
Monday when he appeared as counsel
for Gould before the senate committee,
to which had been referred charges
that he paid bribe of 100000 in 1918
to j. X Flemming, then premier of
New Brunswick, in conectnion with
contract for rights to build the rail-
road. The charges, made in the senate
in an effort to prevent Senator Gould
from taking his seat, to which he was
elected on November 80, to fill the va
cancy caused by the death Of Senator
Eert NJ. Fernald, and first brought cat
in the election campaign by commit
tee associated with Fulton j. Redmasl,.
the democratic nominee, were based
upon the report Of Chief Justice Har-
rison A. McKeown, before whom was
arbitrated 100000 claim against the
province of those interested in the
railroad Mr. Gould explained in the
campaign that the 100000 was a po-
litical campaign assessment, paid
against his wishes.
Redman, when informed at his Ellis
worth residence that the records were
missing, had no comment to make ex-
ccpt to say that the records could be-
authenticated under the secondary evil
dcncc route.

BORDER PATROL DOING

SOUTHWEST, SAYS CHIEF

That the U. S. border patrol is

Wednesday of Walter f.. Miller, as"

a few days ago by G. c. Wilmutn,
director of the district, that all is
quiet along the border at present.
Miller stated that the immigratior
department recently requested num-
Der of photographs showing the Dor
der patrol and it's work, these photo
graphs to be sent to Washington ana
used by the immigration department
in connection with newspaper and
magazine articles. "These photo
graphs, because of their appeal to
the imagination and love of adven-
ture in most people, have undoubted
ly been of much advertising value
to this section of the southwest"
Miller stated.
Commenting on the very commend
able mention recently given the bor-
uST pdlfO1 ny JOuH w. OdNlS, SeCTet
tary of labor, in his annual report,
Miller stated: Most people do not
realize that the most important work
of the border patrol has been the

harm from smuggled liquor and mar
cotics practically ends with the con-
sumption Of the narcotics and liquor
