G2& #H|ll===> most tender and and
dffecJionate to his
PRINCE ALBERT VICTOR. parents and the
Others who were at his bedside.
Between and o'clock last night the
condition of the sufferer grew SO bad that the
usual bulletin was delayed, as it was feared
that the end would come at any moment.
Soon atterward he became better, and to-
ward midnight he fell into sleep, which,
whileit was disturbed, was more quiet than
usual.
At2oclock this morning he again be-
came worse, and the members of the FAM
lily, who had withdrawn from the room,
were hastily summoned. They all re-
manned at the bedside until death occurred.
The prince of Wales sent the following tele-
gram to the lord mayor ofLondon:
Our beloved son passed away at o'clock to-
day. ALBERT EDWARD.
The news of the death OF the duke of
Clarence has caused widespread grief, and
already dem onstratio ns of the public feel
ing are everywhere apparent On ali pub
lie buildings flags are displayed at half
mast, and throughout the whole OF Lon
don the sad intelligence has been received
with expressions of the deepest sorrow.
When the solemn tolling of the great
bells In st. Pauls cathedral were heard this
morning they conveyed to every one
within hearing Of their deep-mouthed
booming the fact that the duke of Clarence
and Avondate had passed away. The bells
in St. Pauls are never tolled save on the
occasion of the death of an heir to the
throne, and therefore no other infor nation
was necessary Tor the people of London to
i,o Sl,of 1lov, tctp,
gle the duke had finally succumbed.
WORN OUT BY WATCHING.
Both the prince and the princess of
Wales look hassard and worn out by their
continued watching by the bedside of their
son. 1t will be remembered tuat they
both had not yet entirely covered from the
labor entailed upon them through the re-
cent sickness Of Prince George. The
princess O Wales, it will be recalled, cut
short her visit to the car and czarina, in
order to return to London to minister to
Prince George, and it was only few
days ago that Prince George, being
convalescent, the entire family Of the
prince Of Wales left the Marlborough house
and went to Sandringham. The prince and
princess of Wales are in the deepest distress
and nothing can afford them consolation
for the loss they have sustained.
The condition OF Princess May is pitiable
She WanderS rom room TO room, weeping
bitterly. She cannot be made to stay in
one place for two minutes together, and
she appears to be daZed at the sudden TAX
ing Off Of her betrothed husband. She re-
fuses altogether to touch food and her ter
rible distress and Wordless sorrow is caus-
ing much apprehension regarding her.
The prince OF Wales would allow no one
to write the kilograms announcing the
death of his son to the queen, the lord
mayor and the various other soyereigns
He reserved to himself this task, and all
these messages he wrote with his own
hand.
The telegraph wires leading from Sand
dringham were kept busy all the morning
in transmitting the messages from the TAM
lily of the prince. This afternoon mes
sages of coincidence began pouring in, and
already such messages have been received
from the most OF the rulers of the world.
Many messages have also been received at
Osborne house. The government is also
receiving official messages from the prime
ministers 0. many countries.
QUEEN VICTORIA SHOCKED.
The queen remained up quite late last
night waiting for news from Sandringham
The last dispatch she received before retir-
ing was from the prince Of Wales. It said:
Eddie is sti II in a critical condition, but
his strength is we'll maintained"
This was somewhat encouraging, and her
majesty thereupon retired. She was very
anxious however, and early this morning
she arose and asked tor the messages that
had been received while she slept The
messages that had been sent to Osborne
house early in the morning were unfavor-
able. and III measure prepared her
majesty Tor the blow in store Tor her.
Though she was hoping against hope the
announcement Of the dukes death. which
came in message signed simply Berthe
was great shock to her ma esty Prince
Albert Victor was, and always had been,
her favorite grandson, and his untimely
death was III ost severe blow to her. She
immediately telegraphed long message of
sympathy to the prince ard princess OF
Wales. She did not forget in her own
sorrow the sorrow that has come to Princess
May, whose love dream has been rudely
shattered by the hand of death To her
her majesty sent message condoling with
her III her sorrow aud distress, and in low
ing words expressed her sympathy.
She at once ordered the duke Of Con-
naught 10 proceed at once to Sanoringham
to represent her there. She also ordered
that the court go into full mourning for
three months and cancelled all the drawing
rooms" and state levees.
Her majesty announced that the funeral
OF the duke would be 4 state junction and
that it would he held in St. Georges chapel
