Mellon was returned home today for burial in the city where he was born 82 years ago. Mellon, who at death was head of an empire embracing billions, an eminent statesman, a patron of the arts, a benefactor of science, will be buried this afternoon at Allegheny cemetery, not far from the smoking blast furnaces. intimately associated with his rise to great wealth and power. The body arrived at 8 a.

immediate family accompanied it. In the funeral party were his daughter, Mrs. David K. E. Bruce, and her husband; his son, Paul and Mrs.

Mellon; Mrs. R. B. Mellon, his sister-in-law; W. L.

Mellon, his nephew; Mrs. Allen Magge Scaife, a niece and her husband. As soon as the body is removed from the train, it will be taken to the wealthy East Liberty Presbyterian church, built at a cost of 000,000 by Mellon's late brother, Richard. The body was to lay in state at the church for two hours, with the casket closed in accordance with wishes of the family. The family will go from the station to the Mellon home, four miles from downtown Pittsburgh.

The funeral service was scheduled for 1:30 p. m. est. after which the body was to be removed to the cemetery for private burial, The services will be public because, his associates believed, Mellon had "too many friends to keep it exclusive." The services themselves were to be brief, with brief readings from the bible, a few hymns chosen by the family, and a prayer by the Rev. Stuart Nye Hutchinson.

Beginning and end of the ceremonies were 1 to be signaled by tolling of the church's deep-toned. bells. From the church, the body was to be taken to the cemetery where lies the grave of his father, Judge Themas Mellon, who founded the Mellon fortune. Quiet and unassuming in life, it was Mellon's own wish that the services be conducted "with as littie ado as possible." Mellon was born in Pittsburgh March 24, 1855, destined to become secretary of the United States treasury under Presidents Harding, Coolidge and Hoover, the richest man ever to hold that office or any public office in the United States. During his regime as secretary of the treasury he reduced the public debt by $9,000.000,000 and lowered taxes each year.

Republicans were fond of referring to Mellon as "the greatest secretary of the treasury since' Alexander Hamilton." In 1932 he went to London to serve as ambassador to Great Britain. He retired from public life in 1933, devoting his time to business and philanthopic pursuits. One of his last acts was the establishment in Washington of a national art gallery, to cost 000,000, which will house his own collection valued conservatively at $25,000,000 and which he hoped would become the nucleus for a great American art collection.

Angeles, Aug. 28-(UP) George Brent's suit for an annulment of his marriage was under advisement in superior court today, awaiting a verdict that may react against all elopements from the movie colony into Mexico. Brent charged that he and Constance Worth, pretty blonde actress from Australia, had not complied with the Mexican marriage la laws, but one of his witnesses was Mexican legal expert who testifiled that no Mexican marriage was binding "unless one of the parties is or has been a resident of Mexico." Mexican border towns have been Gretna Greens for several Hollywood couples.

Judge Charles E. Haas, who heard Brent's case, indicated that he might decide on the validity of all Mexican elopements. Miss Worth opposed Brent's suit. She wept several times during the hearing, especially when reference was made to Brent's remark that he agreed to marry her because of the "pressure." Brent, the brawny Irish actor, former husband of Ruth Chatterton, charged the marriage was void because they did not take health examinations or comply with other technicalities of the Mexican law. He said he agreed to elope because of Miss Worth's insistece.

She said he proposed marriage "several times" before she accepted him, and that after five weeks of married life, he told her he was "tired" of it. Miss Worth's counsel, David Tannenbaum, said that since there was no record of the marriage this side of the border, the marriage does not exist in the knowledge of this country's courts. "Brent should go down to Mexico if he wants the marriage annulled," he said.

Lee, 40, respected Evanston butcher shop proprietor. St. Louis police said they were holding Leonard Doxey 31, Lawrence Dixon and Louise Lamay, 25, all of Chicago.

Louis police picked up Doxey and Dixon last night as suspicious characters and found Miss Lamay at their hotel room. Out of conflicting stories they told, authorities decided the trio left Chicago shortly after the slaying. Doxey and Dixon were taken in an automobile bearing Ohio license plates 437-PU. A set of Indiana plates, 790-977, was found in the car. Lee's assailants escaped in a car bearing Indiana plates.
