SULLIVAN TAKEN TO FINAL RESTING PLACE Hundreds Crowd Streets to Watch Funeral Procession Carry Ring Veteran to ' Calvary Cemetery. , Boston, Feb. 6. Final tribute to a great champion was paid today when the bordy of John L. Sullivan was buried in Calvary cemetery. In the crowds .that lined the snow-filled streets as the casket was borne from the home of Sullivan's sinter, Mrs. Annie Lennon, to St. Paul's church, where the funeral mass was cele brated, were scores of children bid ding farewell to their big "pal," whose watchword was courage and who re galed them with stories of kings and presidents he had met. At the funeral mass were men and women from every walk of life. Leaders of the temperance move ment were there to testify to their regard for the man who boasted that his greatest victory was gained when he conquered drink. Many were there also whom the former cham pion had helped in their hours of need, while neighbors journeyed from his former home in Abington, where he died suddenly of heart disease last Saturday. Nor did the sporting fra ternity forget their once great idol, and they came in numbers from far and near. The burial was in Calvary at Forest Hills beside the body of Sullivan's wife. : , f Church Is Filled. From the home of Sullivan's sister to St Paul's Catholic church the funeral procession proceeded through streets thickly lined with people, most of them women and children. On the doorsteps and in the windows of every house standing on the long hill up reborn street crowds watched as the body of the former champion passed "the scenes intimately associ ated with his boyhood days. Tfiere was a tremendous jam about the church and every seat in the build ing was filled, with hundreds stand ing in the aisles and at the rear. More than half of the attendants were women. It was much like a big gathering of neighbors anxious ' to pay tribute to' the memory of an old friend. James J. Corbett, who wrested the championship from Sullivan more than score of years ago, was not present. Corbett sent a floral offer ing and telegraphed his regrets that he would be unable to come here for the funeral. v The Pallbearers. ' In his absence United States Mar shal John J. Mitchell was substituted as an active pallbearer. The others were former Mayor James M. Cur ley. William Mutdoon, Police Captain JamesP. Sullivan, Daniel J. McDon ald, Edward M. Curran, William Hogarty, Clarence W. Rowley, John Mahoney and Fire Chief William J. Gaffey. There were no .honorary bearers. Ushers at -the church included men who had been identified with some of the matches in which Sullivan took part. . Among the old . fighter's sporting friends at the church were "Yank" Sullivan of Syracuse. N. Y.; James O'Brien of Troy. N. Y.; Thomas Han ton. Chicago: Willii.ni Hurd. Man- I Chester, N. H.; Tim Cronin of Law rence,' Thomas King of Oloucester, and a ,host of lesser ring lights. Cal vin Coolidge, lieutenant governor, at tended as the official representative jf Sullivan's native state. '" There was no funeral oration at the church, as many had expected, nor was the casket opened. Hundreds of people who had been turned away from the church fol lowed the procession to Calvary cem etery at Forest Hills, where a multi tude waited in the bitter cold. As the funeral party turned home ward there was a light flurry of snow.

Justice Hen drick in the supreme court here today declared the New York state anti prize fighting law constitutional when he dismissed a writ of habeas corpus obtained by a boxer who had been ar rested for taking part in a bout for which an admission fee had been charged. It was claimed the boxer did not know the audience had paid to see the exhibition. "When a man participates in a sparring match it seems to me quite reasonable to presume that he must know whether he is giving the exhibi tion gratis or whether he receives compensation," declared Justice Ilcn drick. If tlu latter, it is only a step to the presumption that he must know the sources from which the money U received. If there is no admission fee, no ofTeiue is committed. If there is a fee it is so nearly a part of the exhibition as to render the participant amenable to the penalty prescribed. "Sparring in itself is not inherently wrong. The legislature has not un dertaken to declare it so. Nor is sparring as an exhibition for money evil in itself. Eut in the judgment of the legislature it tends to corrupt the public morals and for that reason it is prohibited." Three Teams Now Tied for Lead in Church Cage Loop HOW TllET STAND. P. W. L. Pet.

Grover Cleveland Alexander, who, with his battery mate, Bill Killifer, cost the Chicago National league base ball club $50,000, today declared that if he plays with the Chicago team next season he must be paid a salary of $12,000 a year and a bonus of $10,000 for signing. Alex ander, who some time ago became a holdout, stopped off here on his way from Nebraska to Philadelphia. He denied that he and President Weegh man bad ever reached any agreement concerning a bonus or terms for next season. "It might as well be definitely un derstood," said Alexander, "that I will not play with the Chicago team next season unless I receive a $10,000 bo nus and a salary of $12,000 a year. I have not seen President Weeghman since our conference in Omaha and I do not intend to go to see him. He knows my terms. Neither am I going to Philadelphia to see President Ba ker of the Philadelphia club. If they want to talk terms they must come to me." Alexander said he had heard noth ing of his claim for exemption from draft and said he would not press the claim. He said that when he was examined a notation was made of the fact tlut he had flat feet and a weak knee, but did not know whether or not these defects would bar him from army duty.

THE FOUR HUSBANDS" CHURCH FATHER HURLS ANATHEMA AT GODLESS REDS Calls on Faithful to Defend Holy Shrines; Scores Bolshe viki as "Outcasts of Mankind" (rt.v Associated TreSH.) Petrograd, Feb.6. Because of the seizure of the Alexander Xevsky monastery in Petrograd by the Bol sheviki and other attacks on church property elsewhere, taken in con junction with other circumstances at tending the latest revolution, the most Rev. Dr. Tikhon, patriarch of All Russia, and metropolitan of Moscow, issued today at Moscow an anathema threatening the participants with ex communication and calling on the faithful to defend the sacredness of the church. In connection with the seizure of Alexander Xevsky monastery, which occurred yesterday by order of Madame Kolontay, minister of social welfare, there was a riot and a sharp struggle, in which the monks fought the red guards. One monk, named Stipetrov, who was wounded, died to day. The church authorities are arrang ing a great demonstration in the Petrograd streets, which the Bol sheviki leaders are seeking to prevent on the grounds that it might bring a clash. The church authorities, how ever, apparently are determined to carry out their plan. The clash of the church with the Bolsheviki government is approaching a most acute stage. The p3triarch. whose anathema is couched in the strongest language, also has de manded from the military commis sion at Mohilev the release of Arch bishop Gommel and other prelates and an explanation of their arrest. When the patriarch's advisers urged him to revise his anathema so that it would be less bitter against the Bol sheviki, lie is reported flatly to have refused, declaring that he was ready to carry it out to the death. The anathema in part follows: J I tie uoiy urtnoaox cnurcn is pass ing through a hard time. It is on open secret that its enemies are per petrating persecutions against Christ' teachings. They want to kill Christ's cause, excite hatred and bring fratri cidal war." 11 TIAcTHEd" -pom FIIMLAND "PHOTO PIAY- OFFERINGS FOR TODAV if I m Also Billie Rhodes Comedy Mutt and Jeff Comic Sunday EDNA GOODRICH in "WHO LOVED HIM BEST?"

A dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph from Am sterdam says Dr. von Kuehlmann, the German secretary of foreign affairs, is bethrothed to Frau von Friedlaenderfuld, who, after Frau Bertha Krupp von Bohlen und Hal bach, is reported to be the richest woman in Germany. Frau von Friedlaenderfuld is the divorced wife of the Hon. John Mitford, son of the late Lord Redesdale. After declaring that atrocities and persecutions are increasing in general and that right and law are disregard ed, the patriarch says it compels him to address "to such outcasts of man kind our menacing word of condemna tion." "Come to reason," he continues. "Stop your bloody fratricide. This work is the work of satan. "By the power given to us by God, we forbid you to participate in Christ's communion. We excommunicate you. if you still have your Christian names, if even only by birth you be long to the Orthodox church. We pray all the faithful children of the Orthodox church not to come into contact Avith such outcasts of man kind. Throw the evil from among you yourselves." Ot the persecution of the church, the patriarch declares: "The holy communion which blesses the birth and marriage of man has been declared unnecessary. The churches arc subjected to de struction from bombardment by guns, or to humiliation, as in the case of the Church of Christ, the Saviour, and the Holy Alexander Monastery in Petrograd, and the Pochayeav monastery at Kiev, which are being .captured by the Godless doniinators of our time." Dr. Tikhon has been head of the Orthodox church virtually since the overthrow of the emperor. Oppos ing with all his might the plan of the" Smolny government to remodel the entire church system along sociologi cal, rather than religious lines, he is expected to exert tremendous in fluence among the peasants and sol diers, the great majority of whom are Orthodox.
