GARUSD'S EFFECTS H | GUARDED INITALY 'Valuable Pearls and Ring of Tenor Cause Police Uneasiness. By the Associated Press. NAPLES, August §—Measures to protect all the baggage and psoperty ewned by the late Enrico Caruse have been taken by the authorities here. There was yesterday seme uneasiness over a string of pearls that the dead tenor bought In Parls ten years ago and said to be valued at 1,000,000 francs. The location, also, of a ring set with a valuable diamond was the :nhlect of preoccupation in some quar- ers. This city resumed its normal life, Zollowing the interruption caused by the death of Caruso on Tuesday and his funeral yenerd-y. Seldom in the history of the city has the death of a man in private 1ife so affected the Neopolitans, and from the time the fcat tenor's death was aunounced until is body was placed In its temporary Yault business virtually was at a stand- atill. Church, government and people yes- terday paid their last honors to C ruso.” At the Basilica of San Fra cisco di Paola, where the requiem mass was celebrated, were gathered representatives of King Victor Emanuel, the Italian government, the Uniteq States and many other countries. In the floral offerings heaped about the vault where the body was placed were wreaths sent as fokens of the sorrow felt in virtu- ally tpe entire occidental world. Great crowds surged about the noble edifice where the funeral service was held. vor strained against the police lines drawn along the streets while the procession passed. Mt was esti- mated that nearly 50,000 persons zathereq in front of the basilica. The press of the crowd in its at- tempts to enter the church to view the casket of the famous tenor was great that troops had to charge several] times upon the throng. Final- a cordon was thrown about the church to prevent serious disorder. Mounted Squads Head Cortege. Moving from the church, the cor- tege was headed by mounted squad- rons of municipal guards, garbed in full dress uniforms of ancient days and bearing medieval banners. Be- nd came he municipal band of aples, marching with measured steps and playing a funeral march. The municipal services of Naples fol- lowed. the firemen Wearing the uniforms of former days and carry- ing floral tributes of the city. Then| came a ecrucifix bearer holding aloft the emblem of sacrifice, leading & procession of priests in cassock and | surpl while Dominican and Fran- ciscan monks, with bowed heads and with lips uttering prayers, followed. Tt was 5 o'clock when the proces- on left the bascilica of San Fran- cisco di Paola to the Camessa chapel, ; consigned toi where the casket w. its temporary resting place. The firal scene of sealing the vault oc- curred just before twilight. A great part of the enormous crowd which had gathered for the services fell into the procession behind the representatives-of the city and the nation and of foreign governments. There were tens of thousands of Nea- politans who thus pald tribute to the beloved artist. Among them were multitudes of representatives of the world of art—singers, actors, sculp- tors, painters and the like—while al along the route masses of people awaited the cortege In breathless si- lence. As the hearse passed by the in the throng uncovered their ads and murmured prayers, while the women and children bowed low and invoked blessings upon the soul of_the great tenor. The procession assembled In the Plaza Dante, and here it was that'the tributes of thé nation, the city and the outside world were paid in ora- tions delivered by representative men. For America the speaker was Hom- er M. Byington, the American consul at Naples. He told of £he loss Italy, America and the world had suffered at the passing of the great artist. Caruso. he said, mourned in two hem- ispheres, was beloved not only for his art, but also for his many generous deeds of charity. Tn the other speeches. the prefect, the mayor and representatives of the ouncil eulogized the life of the tenor nd his love of his art and his coun- ¥. In the services in the Basilica the requiem mass of Piaasielo was sung by a choir of 400 voices, accom panied by an grchestra of 200. under the direction of Giuseppe Baroni. Fol- lowing the mass the tenor de Pueia, an old-time friend of Caruso, sang an_ air from St. Radella requiem. Mrs. Enrico Caruso has received more than 2,000 telegrams of con- dolence from individuals in various parts of the world, who are sorrow- ing over the loss of the great singer. Among them was one from Queen Mother Alexandra of England, which read: 1t is with deep regret that I hear of the death of your gifted husband, whose wonderful voice has for so long delighted the world. His loss will be much felt in England, and I offer you my sincere sympathy in your Breat bereavement. (Signed) “ALEXANDRA.” HAD NO PROPERTY IN U. S. Tenor Took All Belongings to Italy.

(Copyright tional Newspaper Service.) sailed away last spring to his native Bruno Zirato, his private secre- tary and confederate for many years, announced tonight. Even his beloved objects d'art, his ceramics, his pictures, coins and curlos, of which he had a marvelous collection, were packed into twenty large trunks and boxes, and most of them were shipped .to Italy. So_were all the personal effects and furnishings with which he had beauti- fled his hotel suite here. Carugo's frankly spoken reason for this course, though jocularly expressed, Zirato said, was the belief that he might never get back to New York. Mr. Caruso owned no real estate in this country, Zirato said. He had a summer home in East Huntington. Long Island, which he had leased for a term of six months, and his city residence was the hotel suite. “As for personal property,” Zirato added, “practically all of Mr. Caruso’'s stocks and bonds, with the sole ex- ception of a comparatively small block of liberty loan securities, which he still retains in a safe deposit vault, were sold out completely something like two years ago His reason for this action, I presume, was the heavy government taxes now imposed upon such holdings, though during war time and thereafter there were few men, if any, who paid large incom. tax imposts more cheerfully than he. Mr. Zirato declared that neither he nor any one else in this country could give an accurate estimate as to the |, amount of Mr. Caruso's estate. The tenor made out a will, he explained, shortly after the birth of his daugh- ter Gloria, about two ars ago. It was written in the tenor's own hand, Zirato added, and so far as is known its contents were not revealed to any one. Zirato and two close friends of the tenor signed as witnesses.

H. it 5.— The President In his sa_here yesterday spoke In part os follows: Senator Drew said yom hed come hére to see your President. I want to add, your President is very happy to come here to see you. I think it is a perfectly patural and commendable trait of the American people that they like to see and know those whom they commissien to places of authority. On the other hand' it is a mighty good thing for those who are placed in eu- thority to know a little better the American people. If 1 could only have my way, if the exigencies of public service would enly permit, I would llke somehow to come in contact with all the people of these great United States. You do not know how good It is to look the common people in the face and have your faith in Amer- ica renewqd. You do not know how good it is§o see the boys and girls who are the citizenship of tomor- row and find oufselves reconse- crated in the determination to hold for them the America which we of today have inherited. Praises Mr. Weeks. I have had for a good many years a reverent and affectionate regard for a Lancaster boy who is now conspicuous in his service to the nation. I refer to John Win- gate Weeks, Secretary of War. New Hampshire has made some very mnotable contributions to the ranks of American statesmanship, but she never sent a_more pra tical, commonsensical and courage- ous man to the public service. ‘What a fine example of the op- portunities of American youth. 1am glad to come here and have the experience, as one of the mid- dle west, in gazing upon the works of your wonderful land. I won- der” sometimes if you appreciate the indescribable charm of the section in which you live. You are so accustomed to these mar- velous mountains, so addicted to these indescribable scenes of the valleys, that you do not quite ap- praise, as some of us do who see them less. Scene Inspires. If T ever grew doubtful in any stage of my life of the wonderful goodness of God I would only have to journey to this section to see the mountaina in their eternal glories, and the valleys, glorified, and then see them all crowned with our works of modern civili- zation, and I would have my faith unalterably renewed. This morning we were standing on a tower of the mountains drinking in the picture, and saw in one valley a storm brewing, but high above the peaks stood out, striking in their power and per ‘- manance. Then I turned my thoughts to the affairs of men and nations, and felt how comforting it is that the clouds in our na- tional life are only momentarily dimming the picture. We need not lose faith, because under the eternal plan God works out his ultimate intent, and I believe we may all take heart that, no matter what betides today or what dlis- courages tomarrow, we of America have a God glven des- tiny to fulfill which nothing on earth will ever prevent. What America Is Doing. What a fine thing it is to contem- plate the things we of America are doing. What a fine thing it is to estimate sometimes how worderful the fathers conceived and that we of today are contributing to the fulfillment. I never can escape the comforting impression that comes of the knowledge that ifi a century and a third of American national life we of the United States have outstripped every record of civili- zation in all the world, and the re- public which_had its beginning here in New England only a cen- tury and a third ago is today vol- untarily conceded the leadership of the world. 2 1 had another thought while ga: ing upon the mountains this morn- ing: Here In the distance was a beautiful fertile valley, offering everything required for aultenlnce and comfort, In the olden time, Tmana primitive state. the IARABIL: ants of one section, looking upon this beautiful spot, would mve armed and seized it as their n. That was the primitive age of man. The whole process of civilization has been wrought out of this pri- mary ,conflict. The developing of civilization has called men’s atten- tion to the fact that it is not the |~ just, the righteous way to acquire things, and so the story of the world is one stage or another of de- veloping warfare, until we of this generation have witnessed the most dreadful struggle of all man- kind. Confilet Ts Costly. That conflict was so costly in treasure and in human sacrifices that I belleve mankind today is .und"‘(bc A combination and in the usness of a_determina- tion that- the whole development has been wropg, that acquirement through might is contrary to hu- man justice, and in our sorrow and sympathy and our sacrifices, we of America, and all the werld, are resolved today that warfare ought to come to an end. - 1 am happy to bring you word that your government is doing all it can to bring about a conference —an e e e /ASHINGTON SCHOOL ?"wkr SECRETARIES EVENING SEHOOL SHORTHAND 3 fessons each week $6.50 permonfA.

I would like to have much less of resources for destruction and more of resources for instruction in America. I would like to have less of toil to maintain arms and more of play to hearten the Ameri- can people. I do mnot believe the best of citizenship comes out of ' the constant grind. I would like an America where there is more recreation, not for just fortunate people, but for a fortunate Ameri- can people, in which all may par- ticipate. % Faith in Republic. I like to bring you word that in some four months of responsibility I have come to a deeper faith in this republic of ours. 1 was re- minded this mofning by the first piece of mail I recelved, written by some one in the west who thought I would have time to read and ponder, who warned me the government must put an end to the aristocracy of wealth or the nation would be doomed. The writer called upon me to behead all who had more than he or 1 hav I wonder sometimes what wealth is. Contentment is the possession in the world. office of the richest In the presidency I have come in contact lately with every kind of representation American in life—the great lead- ers of finance, the influential leaders of labor, leaders of vari- ous political groups—and I believe there is not one in any group who does not want, deep in his heart, to preserve our America, and is do- ing all that he possibly can to aid in its onward march. Those who are suspected most of using their places of importance for selfish ends are sometimes the most generous of all in their ten- ders of support and sacrifice for our nation’s good. Sometimes you think your government is mnot alert; sometimes you think it is not concerned with what you be- lieve to be your interest. Let me tell you, and I care not what party in power, your government is always seeking to serve you to the best of its ability. Hopes of Civilisation. You can not always be told everything that is going on. I know there is a school of Ameri- can advocates who believe that everything ought to be proclaimed at every stage of our national life. That is not a practical plan. can commend your public servants. They are really trying to promote the good fortunes of our common country. Ours is an inheritance of popular government. There is none precisely like it. 1 believe that we have come the nearest to formulating a dependa- ble form of popular government that mankind has ever devised, and you of New England may take that to your hearts, for American de- mocracy had its beginning here. American democracy is the inspira- tion of the world, and America’s attitude is the hope of modern civilization. o sogke o SENATE CONFIRMS NAMES.
