Clusters of Japa i nese lanterns hung from the trees and i in one corner a decorated Christmas | tree defied the season.

HILL Railroad Employes to Attend Funeral; Empire Builder Worth $225,000,000 Wise Words of J. J. Hill "Community of ownership is ' valuable, but not the only thing for j a railroad property. No matter how 1 many men are In a property, you can't make a bad property good by an interchange of ownership." "The less friction there Is among: ' railroads the better it will be for j all of us." "The way to abolish trusts is to ! make stockholders liable." "The crying need of the North west to-day Is men who have the | gift of continuance." "Luck and laziness don't go to gether. 'Opportunity won't hunt j you up." "Work steadily, live prudently \ and show intelligence, and help will j come to you." "One of our most serious troubles is to find men fit to be foremen, superintendents, etc." "Transportation is nothing more or less than overcoming the law of I gravitation." V., , / By Associated Fress St. Paul. Minn., May 30.—Simplicity ; will mark the funeral of James J. Hill, I pioneer railroad builder, who died at his home yesterday from bloodpoison lng. The democratic spirit of the "em pire builder" will follow him to his last resting place. His great home will be opened to the employes of the Great Northern Railroad this after- I noon and the fact that to-day is a | holiday will make it possible for most j I of the several thousand employes of' ! the company here and in Minneapolis ! to view the body of their employer. Funeral services from the home on t Wednesday at 2 p. m. The Rt. Rev. Thomas J. Gibbons, vicar-general, will have charge of the services. The funeral will be public, but only rela tives, close friends and persons em ployed by the Hill interests are ex pected to attend. All day and through the night messages from all parts of the country were received by members of the company. They came from railroad presidents, financiers, civic and state organizations and political leaders. Every flag in the city was at half mast. Wednesday all the banking insti tutions in the city will be closed ai 1.30 p. m. The First National Rank | and the Northwestern Trust Company, i Hill institutions, will close at noon. Worth About 5225.000.000 Mr. Hill's wealth is estimated from 1 MAY 30, 1916. I 1100,000,000 to $500,000,000. He was probably worth between $200,000,000 and #250,000,000. An estimate of his riches was pro vided when the European war began in July, 1914. He called his bankers together from the Fist National Bank and Northwestern Trust Company, of [ St. Paul, and more than $100,00u,000 j : in securities was said to have been in i the boxes Mr. Hill laid before them. "There should be no trouble," said Mr. Hill, "but if there is, this amount is at your disposal." His Aid lor Bankers The First National then borrowed from Mr. Hill $10,000,000 worth of Great Northern Railroad bonds. These were placed with the Treasury Depart ment in Washington, and $6,000,000 worth of emergency currency allowed ] under the Aldrich act was shipped at once to the First National Bank. It was found necessary to place only $125,000 worth of this in circulation. In a few weeks the entire amount was returned to Washington. Mr. Hill had the absolute control of the First National Bank and North ! western Trust Company, which have a | combined capital and surplus of $6,500,000. Railroad Stock Holdings Mr. Hill was a large owner of stock | in the Chase National Bank of New I York, First National Bank of Chicago | and the Northwestern National Bank jin Minneapolis. He was a large owner | of the Great Northern Pacific Steam | ship Company. The greatest portion of Mr. Hill's wealth, however, was in the stocks J and bonds of the Great Northern, I Northern Pacific and Chicago, Bur j lington and Quincy Railroads, j The executors of Mr. Hill's estate j probably will be Louis W. Hill, his I son, and the Northwestern Trust Com- I pany. The great power held by Mr. Hill j will pass to Louis, who is president of ; the Great Northern, and who has been closely associated with him in business for ten years. James N. Hill, the oldest son, is a director of the Texas Company, and has made a big fortune in New York. Walter, the youngest son, has big farm holdings in Kittston | county, Minnesota, where he spends I the most of his time, j It is believed Mr. Hill's vast estate will be held intact through the North i western Trust Company and that the j heirs will be given life interests. $43,000,000 Is Given to Rivers and Harbors of U. S. Washington, May 30. The Sen : ate to-day passed the Rivers and Har ! bors Appropriation Bill, carrying ap proximately $43,000,000, by a vote of ! 35 to 32 after adding many amend ! ments. A final effort to displace it with a substitute appropriating a lump sum of $30,000,000 was defeated by only one vote. Other substitutes appropriating $20,000,000 and $25,- 000,000 respectively also failed. Just before the final vote was taken ; Senator Kenyon predicted it would Ibe the last of its kind to pass an American Congress. ' "You are voting at least $20,000,000 into this bill that is absolutely un justifiable," said he. "You are dump ing thousands of dollars into streams where commerce is rapidly disappear ing and into streams with less than a foot of water in them, and into | streams that you could not recognize j as such when you crossed them." STREET REPAIR GANGS BUSY Only the street repair gangs were at work to-day. Resurfacing of por tions of Market and Front streets oc cupied their attention. The City High way, Park and Water Departments weer the only municipal offices that did business to-day, while the County Commissioners and the County School Superintendent's offices were open a part of the time.
