the army and navy monopolized the
pageant. Three thousand soldiers and
sailors, picked companies representing
all branches of the service, cavalry, ar
tillery, infantry, yeomanry. militia,
volunteers and colonials formed the ad-
vance escort. They marched slowly
and without music. Most of the uni
forms were covered with dark over
coats and the standards were draped
with black. the officers wearing bands
of crepe on their sleeves. The infantry
marched in columns of four, with rifles
reversed. They were half an hour in

them four massed bands playing fun

proclaimed ideal conditions for the fu-
neral day of England's Queen. The
calm serenity of the atmosphere was
reflected by the crowds which at day
light began to assemble at every point
of vantage along the route of the royal
obsequies. So soft, peaceful and noise
less was the progress of the ingather-
ing hosts that the constantly swelling
throngs and the rhythmic tread of the
assembling troops seems to accentuate
the solemn stiffness.
The early scenes were unlike those of
many spectacular days which London
has witnessed in the past year. The
crowds which so early gathered in the
streets this morning evinced an entire
lack of feyerish unrest and excitement
The great masses of police which as
sembled phantomlike in the grayness
of the morning, seemed more apologet-
ically to tiptoe to their allotted sta
lions. as though their presence reflect
ed on the solemnity dominating every
thing. Never did a concourse of peo-
pie so little need either civil or mil
itary guidance. No man standing by

CHARLESTON, w. Va, February p.
Much the same lobby that wrought the
downfall of the Laughlin license bin Is
now working TO beat the Wheeling elecs
trio light bill. Whether Sergeant-at-
Arms Fitch has been enlisted in that enc
terprise remains TO be seen. but as James
n. Hall is the moving spirit and as Hall
was the head push for Fitch when tho
latter was a candidate for clerk of the
Senate il Is fair to presume the latter
is ready TO make another such exhibition
of his gratitude as he gave in the fight
on the Laughlin bill.
When the final lineup comes there viii
be found Senators, opposing the measure
whose object will be to repay some of the
favors received from Republican head
quarters during the recent compaign, and
the wise will recognize the motive as
soon as they see the list of voters
With all this, however. II is hardly
thought the bill can be defeated. as the
Democratic Senators are not susceptible
to the influence that will control tho other
side, and will probably vote to free the
city of Wheeling from the corporate grasp
that now holds it fast
The bin introduced by the finances COM
mittee OF the House under the high
sounding title of "A bill to increase the

of cheapening the price for small char

There will be a hard fight made

Three kings and heads of municipalities

what interfered with by the enormous
proportions of the crowds gathered
around the Windsor station, and in
many cases the royal personages were
literally bundled into the special trains
awaiting them. 1t was at Windsor
that the only bitches in the elaborate
programme of the day occurred; and
these added to rather than detract
from the dramatic and pathetic inter-
est The first and most striking was
the utter intractability of the horses
attached to the gun carriage bearing
the coffin. The alarm and chagrin of
the king and emperor who had hurried
up to ascertain the cause of delay in
the procession leaving Windsor sta
ton, was patent upon their counter
ances. The horses struggled in the
traces and the coffin was almost
thrown from the gun carriage. Lord
Roberts asked the King for permission
to take out the horses and substitute
for them jackies. who had come up
from Portsmouth as a guard of honor.
This suggestion was quickly sanctioned

HITCH IN THE SERVICE.

The other hitch occurred during the
religious part of the ceremony. The
service at st. Georges chapel was
brief, but beautiful. The choral ser
vice had formed fitting elimination
to the martial parades. The trembling
voice of the archbishop of Canterbury,
who is almost blind, had scarcely end
ed the final benediction before he
turned to go up the altar steps. His
sight and strength failed him and he
tottered, CROPPED and was on the point
of falling when the archbishop of
York, who had been standing some
distance behind him, advanced and
caught his hand and gentlely led the
venerable prelate to the holy table.
Then they both knelt, the greatest dig
nitaries of England's church next in
rank to the royal blood, their heads
bowed upon the purple altar cloth.
While the archbishops prayed and
the bishops and clergy reverently kept
their knees, the King and Emperor
William, followed by three other kings.
walked almost hurriedly up to the altar
rails and out into the castle by pri
vate exit. Their gorgeous suites fol-
lowed mechanically and a kaleidoscope
of color and royalty surged up the
chancel Against this hurrying throng
the coffin and kneeling figures within
the holy enclosure stood out in con-
trast. STILL the archbishop prayed and
still the gaily caparisoned princes
sought an outlet by which they might
gain the Waterloo chamber, in which
the long delayed luncheon had been
laid. Almost touching the coffin they
chatted. Ambassador Choate shook
hands with another ambassador.
