CURIOUS GUST O M
Creaking Wheels Typify
Sorrow of Japan Over
MikadO's Death.
Bv MILES w. VAUGHN
UNITED Press Staff Correspondent


TOXIC, Feb. 7.-Japan's mil
lions bowed in mourning tonight as
the body of Emperor Yoshihito, who
died December %, was borne
through the streets of the capital
to the imperial gardens for the fin
al funeral rites.
Pilgrims from every corner of the
land of the rising sun gathered in
Toxic and it was estimated 1,500,-
600 lined the route of the process
sion.
The ancient Shinto ceremonies
were strangely blended with moder
nifty and microphones along the line
Of march enabled millions unable to
be present to join in the national
mourning. Even the creaking
wheels of the great funeral cart
were caught on the radio.
The creaking of the wheels was
the symbol of the nation s sorrow
Caught up by the radio, the strange
lament, in rhythmic, seven note
cadence, was scattered through the
air to the farther parts of the island
empire, heard for the first time by
others than the crowds bowed along
the line of procession.
The dirge of the wheels, by an
cient custom, is made by a mechani-
cal arrangement of the wooden hut
and axle which emit the sounds in
regular order from the time the
procession started.
Business was suspended during
the day as the crowds gathered and
sought vantage points. At night
the electric lights were not turned
on, and the magnificent procession
wound through the streets in the
impressive light of Pickering torch
cs, reflected in cleaning points
from a recent snowfall.
The cortege arrived at the funcr-
al hall about 9 p. m. and the coffin
was taken by bearers into the i'm
perial presence. Shinto priests of
the imperial household carried out
the last rites and Emperor Hirohito
then spoke briefly, giving his con
dolences to the nation and urging
united support for the empire and
the dynasty.
Shortly after midnight the cor
tcge again formed and followed the
coffin, borne by 105 bearers, to n
specially built railway station at
Sendagaya, where it was entrained
for the Asaka mausoleum. The
train was scheduled to arrive at the
nlausoleum at day break where ad-
ditional ceremonies will be held be-
fore interment.
The whole funeral was a tremen-
dous demonstration of, the popular
ity of the Imperial Family and the
firm hold which the dynasty has on
the minds and hearts of the Japan
ese people. Pilgrims from through
out the Empire swarmed in Tokyo
for the funeral.
The cost of the funeral was ap-
rroximately $1,500,000 gold.

CHAPLIN ATTACKS
DIVORCE ACTION
ON TECHNICALLY
ny United Press Leased Wire

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 7.-Attor-
neys for Charles Chaplin began a
technical attack here today on the
divorce complaint filed by the com
edian s wife, Lita Grey Chaplin, al
most month ago.
That the complaint did not state
specifically that Lita Grey Chaplin
and Charles Chaplin were husband
and wife at the time Of filing ac-
tion, was the basis of arguments
made by attorneys for Lloyd Wright
at n hearing on a demurrer, contest
ing the naming Of Wright in the di-
vOrce action.
Counsel for Chaplin contcnded
that no allegation was made in spe-
cific terms and tho' the complaint
did not state facts sufficient to
constitute cause Of action.
Mrs. Chaplin's attorney, Lyndol
Young, replied that the filing of the
action was sufficient evidence that
the Chaplin s were married at the
time.
Hearing of the demurrer was con
tinued until late this afternoon by
Superior Judge Schmidt.

'DAUCHERTY AND
MILLER FACING
SECOND TRIAL
BY G. j. v. MURPHY
United Press Staff CorreSponde

NEW YORK, Feb. 7.-Harry M.
Daugherty, once power in Wash
ington, was tired man when he
came into federal court today to
watch the selection of jury that
will try him and Thomas w. Miller
on a charge of conspiracy to "de-
fraud the government of their un-
preiudiced services as officials. -
There was nothing in Daugherty
today to suggest that he was the
nation S attorney general in the
Harding cabinet. Since his first
trial few months ago, when a jury
disagreed after &C hours of delibera-
ton, he has lost sight of his left eye.
He appeared completely fatigued.
Colonel Miller, who in 1921. was
alien property custodian, was in
better spirits. He chatted with his
wife, who sat by him during the five
weeks of the first trial.
Daugherty and Miller were in
dicted in connection with the return
of $7000,000 assets of the American
Metals company, impounded under
the trading with the enemy act, to
Richard Merton, German metal mag.
nate, who had said he paid fee r"
of SAL 900 for "hclp and specd'
in obtaining the transfer.
A panel of 1l5 veniremen was
called.
