P. photo. By PHIL NEWSOM United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Nov. 9. Billy Sunday traveled the end of the "sawdust trail" today a trail that led to a small family plot at Forrest Home Cemetery.

The evangelist, whose swashbuckling, free-swinging attacks on sin and the Devil have made the rafters of many a temple ring, was buried this afternoon in a plot that he and Mrs. Sunday picked out 18 years ago. Cold rain beat down on Moody Bible Institute but thousands crowded to the temple where funeral services were held in quiet dignity that was in striking contrast to the days when "Billy" climbed up into the pulpit, waved his arms and shouted himself hoarse as he led his flock in such stirring hymns as "Brighten the Corner Where You Are." In a silence broken only by the pulsating whisper of a huge crowd, Dr. Will H. Houghton, president of the Institute, read from the 18th chapter of First Corinthians: when this corruptible and this mortal shall have put on immortal-ity- In the front row a woman stirred and attendants leaned heavily against the outside doors.

The crowd, restless in the chilling rain, surged forward Dr. Houghton's voice went on. "Then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written The auditorium, jammed as it was, was quiel. and Dr. Houghton concluded: "Death is swallowed up in victory." That short verse, taken from the ressurection chapter, was the keynote of the service.

It was a contrast in color a contrast to Billy Sunday himself. SAN FRANCISCO. Nov. 9. Investigation of charges made by Collector of Internal Revenue John V.

Lewis that fortunes were being amassed in police graft payoffs, will be conducted by an "unseen hand," and the identity nf all his operatives will be shrouded in secrecy. This was learned today as District Altnrney Mathew Brady launched a probe for which $25,000 has been appropriated. MAY NOT BE SEEN The "unseen hand," it was said, is a former Department of Justice agent, who ie not now in the city, and who may direct operations without ever coming to San Francisco. In any event, he will not appear on the scene until all desired information is ready for submission to the Grand Jury. Either Brady or his deputies will draw on the $25,000 probe fund without explanation during the course of the investigation, but a complete itemized account of expenditures will be submitted when the work of the "unseen hand" is completed.

FIRST WITNESS Though confirmation was not forthcoming, it was understood that the' first witness to be questioned will be Mrs. Marie Pap-pens, sentenced to one to 10 years in Tehachapi prison in May on a morals charge involving alleged placing of two minor girls in I house of ill repute- "Mama" Pappens is reported ready "to tell all," a complete reversal of her attitude when sent to the prison. When incarcerated, she refused to discuss alleged graft with authorities. TORNADO MUSKOGEE, Nov. 9.
