LONDON, May 9.-Yesterday, IN
practically every church throughout
the British Isles services Of mourning
for the death of King Edward were
held.
1t is thought now that the date for
the funeral will be made May 20, any
earlier date making 1t impossible for

ferent countries to l. present.
The remains will be given their last
resting place in tomb beneath the
Albert Memorial Chapel, the magniti-
cent mausoleum at Frogmore erected
to the memory of "the good prince"
the father of King Edward, by Queen
Victoria, in which was later laid the
body of that queen.
LONDON, May S.-This city pre-
sents a solemn appearance with the
public buildings, the squares and the
majority of the shops and hotels drap-
ed in purple and black, the outward
manifestation of the grief of the peo-
pie for the death of their King. All
places of public amusement have been
closed and all society events have been
Cancelled for the time being.
The remains of the dead King lie in
the chamber in which he died and will
remain there until Tuesday, when the
body will be removed to Windsor Cas-
tie, from whence the funeral will be
held
The funeral will be military.
Five Kings and an Emperor will
follow the remains of King Edward TO
the grave, making of this funeral one
of the greatest gatherings of ruling
monarchs in history.
King Albert of Belgium and the
Belgium Queen have expressed their
intention Of being present; King AL
fonso and Queen Victoria the latter
the niece of the dead King, are also to
arrive in England this week. King
Manuel of Portugal, King Victor EN-
manuel of Italy and Emperor William
of Germany have all arranged to form
a part of the funeral cortege.
