ment, but is In Receipt Of Official
condolences From All Parts of
the Countrywide Cabinet Called
in q Body.

Washington, JAN. 23.-The British
embassy is enshrouded in gloom, and
the heavy hangings of black within
and without the stately old mansion
rive tribute to the memory of the
departed queen. The British flag
hangs at half-mast above the porte
cochere fronting the building. Around
the royal arms, which top the portico,
hang heavy masses of black, and from
,be large columns are draped long
hands of crepe. All the curtains of
,be embassy are drawn, and the entire
Mace presents an aspect of silence
and mourning.
Lord Pauncefote in Retirement.
Lord Pauncefote remains in retire
ment with his family and staff most
of the time, only occasionally seeing
come distinguished caller who comes
10 paw a tribute of respect and con-
dolence. These condolences have come
in the most abundant form, and tes-
tify to the widespread feeling which
the death of the queen has awakened
in all classes. They come in the form
of notes, telegraphic messages and
cards, running into the hundreds, be-
sides, the many personal calls which
the officials of the government and of
the diplomatic corps have paid.
Cabinet Called I'm n Body.
The sentiment of this government
was the first to express itself in the
calls of the entire membership of
President McKinley's cabinet, includ-
ing Secretaries Hay, Gage, Long, Will
son, Hitchcock, Acknowledgement
Griggs and Postmaster-General Smith,
and the leaving of cards of Secretary
Root, who was confined to his home.
The British officials throughout the
country also have taken occasion to
send their expressions of grief.
Awaiting Omcinl Announcement.
The official announcement of the
government as to the procedure to be
followed has not come. For the time
being there is little to do but testify
in silence to the affection which has
come upon the British nation, and
then to take up the business under
the new sovereign. Lord Pauncefote
and his family attend ST. Johns Epis-
copal church on Lafayette Square,
fronting the White House, which will
be the place of commemorative exer-
cises, if any are directed from Lon
don.
Use of Church rendered.
The rector of the church, Rev. DR.
MacKay-Smith, called on the ambas.
sador to tender the use of the church
for this purpose, but in the unsettled
condition of arrangements, no final
reply could be given. There had been
some doubt among the British Off.
Gals here whether parliament would
be Immediately assembled, but the
announcements from London appear
to make this certain. Lord Paunce.
fote is a member of the house OF
lords, but it is hardly expected that il
will be necessary for him to go to
London to attend the session under
the new sovereign, and to receive the
new credentials of ambassador from
King Edward VII.
