KING EDWARDS BODY
NOW LYING IN STATE
Remains Taken From Palace to
Westminster Hail

London, May 1S.-The body of King
Edward VII. was taken with stately
pomp from Buckingham palace on the
first stage of the journey to the grave
and now lies in state in Westminster
hall, where hundreds OF thousands will
pay last tribute to the dead mon
arch before the final passage through
the streets of the capital.
Mr Roosevelt, special American am
bassador to the funeral of King Ed
ward, did not participate in the cere-
mony attending the removal of the
body of the king from buckingham
palace to Westminster hall. In com
pany with Mrs. Roosevelt, Miss Roose
welt, Kermit, American Ambassador
Reid and Mrs. Reid he witnessed the
procession from a house in Carlton
House terrace.
The procession lasted only half ar
hour, but in that brief period one oi
the greatest crowds that ever jammet
section of London witnessed won
derful scene of mingled pomp ant
gloom.
The route, one mile in length, wa!
lined by 1850 soldiers, who stood 81
close together as almost to toucl
shoulders.
The procession lacked the glitter o
royalty that will mark the funeral pro
cession on Friday. Aside from KIM
George and the members of the Brit
| ish royal household few of the visiting
monarchs participated in the exel
ciSeS.
The procession was made up of tn
army headquarters staff, the arm
| council, the board of admirals, fiel
marshals and admirals, King Georg
and the other members OF the roys
household.
