Edward VII was carried through the
streets of the capital today in the pres
ence of many hundred Thousand sub
jects and with the kings of nine Eu-
ropean nations, several future rulers,
members of all the royal families OF
the world and former president OF
the United States following the casket
from Westminster Hall to Padding
ton station.
| The cortege moved through solid
double lines of relocated soldiery
standing with rifles reversed and the
freglmental colors dipped to the
ground.
At the railway station the casket
was placed in funeral car AMI taken
to Windsor, where, after tine Church
OF England service had been conduct
ed by the archbishop of Canterbury in
st. Georges chapel, it was entombed
in the Albert memorial chapel ad-
joining.
No such professional spectacle had
been witnessed in London since
Queen Victoria's jubilee. The parade
included many Of the greatest men Of
the kingdom with representatives of
/ all arms of the service and delega-
tions from the most famous regiments
| OF the empire and representative
groups Of foreign armis and navies.

minutes before the casket Emperor
William, who was at the entrance as
they appeared, dismounted and, wav-
ing the lackeys aside, opened the door
of the queen mothers carriage, help
ed her out and kissed her upon the
cheek.
The procession started from the hall
at 900 O'Clock just as the first min
ute gun doomed. The precedent
afforded by the funeral Of Queen Vic
toria nine years ago was closely fol-
lowed. The oaken casket with the
crown and cushion regalia and in
sigma of the Order of the Garter there
on was borne on gun carriage, the
same as was used at the funeral Of the
late queen. The procession proceeded
through Parliament street and White
Hail.

THEY GOT ENORMOUS FEES.
Sums Which Have Been Paid to Not.
ed Lawyers Of the United States

=
George B. Wickersham, Attorney
General OF the United States, who. as
one of the attorneys in the litigation
between the city of Chicago and the
Chicago traction Company, was paid
fee of 100000, did not receive as
much, relatively, as Elihu Root. who
topped every fee ever paid to any law
yer in the world considered from the
view of services performed.
James B. Hill, now a Judge of the
Court of Errors and Appeals in New
Jersey, was paid 100000 for patch
ing up the bitter differences between
Andrew Carnegie and Henry G. Frick.
This took months of labor and the
employment of many assistants in the
search for records which were neces-
sary in bringing about the reconcilia-
ton. 1t is, SO far as the amount is
concerned, the highest fee paid to a
lawyer in the history of American
Jurisprudence. William D. Guthrie
was paid 100000 for breaking the
will of Henry B. Plant. which in
volved many months of labor and
frequent appearances in Court
After the death of Russell Sage a
legal snarl presented itself as to the
distribution of the estate. variously
estimated at from $40. 000, 900 to $780,
100000. Mrs. Sage, Kindly, generous
and just, wanted the legal questions
settled quickly and by authority.
II want you to see Mr.. Elihu Root, "
she said to her adviser. and say to
him that will consider it a distinct
favor if he will pass upon this ques.
ton and give to me his decision"
Communication was opened up al
once with the then Secretary of War
A special messenger called upon him
He was too much engrossed with his
official duties to give the request at
tention.
please say to Mrs. Sage" said he
that it will be impossible for me tc
act l am not practicing law now
But it is not a question of fee, Mr.
y.
Sage insists that you, and you only
shall advise in this matter"
Il repeat" replied the Secretary,
"that l do not wish to be retained
and You may say that nothing further
need be suggested. Ny fee would be
practically prohibitive, and l want il
to be SO regarded
And that fee would be-
''Well, say $250,0OO," was the reply
in tone intended to cut off further
discussion.
That same day Geographic commun.
ication with Mrs. Sage was opened
PAY it, she said Mr.. Root was as
founded when informed that his pro
hibitive" fee was regarded as settled
He accomplished what he had to do ir
less than 4S hours, without appearing
in Court and without engaging adj
1itional aid, and Mrs. Sage was very
well satisfed.-New York Herald
