Fielding to its last resting place in Beechwood Ceme- tery, There was a private service at the fieldipg residence on Sandy Hill al two o'clock after which the cor tege proceeded to the First Baptist Church on Elgin street. Leaving the church , the procession followed Laurier avenue to Metcalfe, Many parts of Canada were repre sented among the hundreds who, sad of heart and with many a reminiscent thought of bygone days, attended the funeral, The people of Ottawa who had loved and honored Mr. Fielding as a fellow citizen and as a great Canadian joined in throngs. Perhaps the most significant mom- ents of the solemn march were when the cortege 'moved along Wéllington street skirting parliament hill. Many of those who now paid. their deep respects had listened to all or nearly all of the seventeen budger speeches which Mr, Fielding had delivered during the many vears that he was a dominant force in the parliament of this country. One figure among the honorary pall bearers was particularly marked, Ii was that of Sir William Mulack, of the "cabinet of the talents" which Sir Wilfrid Laurier formed after the Liberals swept the country in 1896, Sir William and Sir Charles Fitzpat- rick now alone remain, Sir Charles was unable to attend today's ser- vices but Sir William was present, Sir Clifford Sifton and Mr. Fielding were the most recent of that distin. guished group to pass away.

Fielding arrived in the capital last night and this morning that they might join in the funeral of the distinguished statesman, Sir William Mulock, the last surviving member of the first cabinet of Sir Wilfrid Laurier, reached this city last night and is staying at Laurier house, the guest of Premier Mackenzie King.

Vincent Massey returns here tomorrow from Ottawa, where, it may be surmised, he discussed among other things with the Prime Minister the famous "I'm Alone' case, Last week Mr, Massey received from Yale University the Honorary degree of Doctor of Laws, and it was a happy coincidence that at the same time the same degree was bestowed upon the United States secretary of state, Henry L. Stim- son, In the diplomatic world such contacts are not without their profit taking, and it is pretty well understood in Washington that the "I'm Alone" case took a step for- ward, Under the agreement reached each country ig to appoint an ar- bitrator and these are to endeavor to reach an amicable agreement on the issues at stake. It is ex- pected the names of these two men will be announced oh Mr, Massey's return, but in any event hefore the ond of June, Tt is anticipated each country will appoint an eminent jurist, If this arbitration board of two fail to agree, what then? Refer: ence will be made to the pecuniary claims tribunal set up, in 1920 by treaty between Great Britain and' the United States to which were referred all outstanding claims, some of them going back a hun- dred years. This tribunal consists of threes members, one British, one American and one neutral, the lat- ter being a French jurist, M, From- ageot, But the personel may be changed at will and it is pretty certain should a reference hecome necessary, a Canadian, jurist will be nominated by Great Britain.

When they pulled up to the high. way they noticed the Kord driven by Mr. Read, coming towards them although at a considerable dis- tance, Curtiss thought that he haa plenty of time to make the other side of the road and pulled out halfway when he saw that the other car was attempting to swing around in front of him. He im. mediately stopped and the Ford crashed into the right front fender, swerved towards the side of the road, and turned over, completely ruining the car.
