GREAT ACTOR LAID TO REST
ASHES OF IRVING PLACED IN
WESTMINSTER ABBEY.
High British Officials and Prominent
Persons Pay Final Tribute
to the Dead.

London, Oct. 21.-Beside that other
great actor, Garrick, and under the
shadow of the statue of Shakespeare,
as the interpreter of whose plays he
won fame, the ashes of Sir Henry Irv-
ing were Friday given burial in West
minister abbey, thus being accorded
England's greatest tribute to her dead.
The services, which were of an i'm
pressive character, were conducted in
the presence OF a congregation which
included many from the highest official
life of England, eminent representa-
tives of all the walks of life, and all
the representatives of that gallery to
which Irving was so invariably atten-
tive, who could find standing room in
the abbey. King Edward was repre-
sented by Gen. Sir Dighton Probyn,
keeper of the privy purse, and the
prince of Wales was represented by
Lieut.. Col. William H. P. Darlington,
comptroller of the princes household,
While the cabinet ministers and am
bassadors attended in person, White
law Reid, who is visiting in Scotland,
coming to London purposely to testify
Americas regard for the dead TRACE
dian.
Long before the hour set for the
service, immense crowds gathered
around the abbey, and those having
cards of admission were in their seats
as early as ten o'clock. Those who
were unable to secure admittance re-

conclusion of the ceremony, when, in
common with thousands of others,
they passed through Poets corner to
see the burial place.
The service, although short and
simple, was most impressive.
The only mourners were Lady Irv-
ing and the sons of Sir Henry Irving.
A few. intimate friends and the pail
bearers followed the casket to tho
grave, in the narrow space surround
ing which are tombs and statues Of
many of England's great men of let
tiers.
That the death of Irving is consid-
cred a national loss is shown by the
universal mourning throughout Lon
don. Scores of thousands of persons
stood in the streets for hours around
the abbey as the only mean of pay
ing a last tribute, while for those who
were unable to get into Westminster
abbey services were held in several
churches of the city. The flags on
many of the public buildings, includ-
ing the American embassy and con-
sulate, were at half-mast, and hun
oreds wore crepe bands and black ties.
Upon his arrival in London from
Scotland Friday morning Ambassador
Reid sent the family of Sir Henry Irv-
ing a message conveying his personal
regard of Sir Henry and sincere con-
dolences in behalf of the American
nation.

OF the greatness of the cars power,
