All Creeds Represented at the Services
 for Him in the Cathedral.

New York, Nov S.-Two thousand friends of all creeds attended the fu- neral services of Father Benjamin E'. Da Costa in the cathedral yesterday. One hundred and fifty priests were in the sanctuary and assisted in the chanting of the office for the dead, which was led by the Rev Ormond Hughes of tho cathedral and the Rev D. F. O'Connor of St Andrews's church in Duane street.
 Those who officated at the solemn requiem mass were old friends and aided in bringing Father Da Costa ill the Roman Catholic church. They were the Rev T. F. White of the Je. suit Fathers in West Sixteenth street SIS celebrant of the mass, the Rev Luke J. Bvers, pastor of St Andrewss church i'll Duane street. as deacon, and the Rev w. F. r. Dooley as subdea- con. The master of ceremonies was the Rev Thomas F. Murphy. assistant rector of the cathedral. The sermon was preached by the Rev ThomasiP. Mclaughlin. who was for years the pastor of old St Patrick's in Mott street, and was known among the ljeo- pie of Chinatown as the singing priest" Father Mclaughlin receiv- VI AIA AId SOStu illlO luc ollie faith. He is now pastor of the Blessed Sacrament church in New Ro- chelle.
 Father Mclaughlin dwelt upon the sincerity, earnestness and zeal of the dead priest, and told how in his days of doubt he spent long hours ill prayer and study to be sure that his step from Episcopalianism to Catholicism was the right one.
 Possibly those most visibly affected by the services were the sisters from St Vincent's hospital. where the priest died. Ten of them sat as mourners in the first pew of the center aisle. Many of pr Da Costa's old parishoners of the Episcopal faith were in the ca thedral to say prayer for him. Few of the assemblage were unmoved.
 Father Da Costa was buried in the priests plot in Calvary cemetery tenn porarily until the mortuary chapel, now under construction is completed, when the body will be moved
