Cowiis, I»!e of Wight, Jan. 2«.-The
royal family yesterday took their last
loving look at the features of the dead
queen. About 10 o’clock lu the morn
ing the shell was brought into the bed
room, where were waiting King Ed
ward, Emperor William, the Duke of
Conuanght, Sir James lteiil ami the
royal ladies. Tint latter having retired.
Sir James Huid, with reverent lmud>,
assisted by throe trusted household ser
vants, and in the presence of the king,
the emperor and the duke, removed the
body from the led to the coiliu.
Not a trace of the ravages of disease
was visible. The servants having re*

Emperor William wept even more

Joue. Sir James Reid, beckoning to
he servants, who were holding the
offm lid, asked the king’s instructions.
For a few seconds the king stood
peechless, stricken with emotion at the
ast farewell. Then he said quickly:
“Close it finally. It must not be
►pened again.”
Thus the remains of England s great
est ruler were forever hidden from hu-
nan view. Reverently the coffin was
jorue into the diningroom. Officers and
nen from the royal yachts took their
itand around the coffin, over which the
ting, aueen and kaisor gently laid the
■obes of a Knight of the Garter, placing
it the head a diamond crown. Beneath
ay the royal ensign, while hanging
ibove was the union jack.
At the altar was the reotor of Whip*
pinghaui, who read a portion of the fun-
a ral service in the presence of the royal
family. Emperor William covorcd hii
face with his hand and the grief of
Princess Beatrioo was pitiful. After
the benediction each placed a wreath
upon tile coffin and then all retired.
Victoria’. Thoughtfulness.
New York, Jan. 2(1.—An interesting
illustration of the queen s thoughtful
ness has come to light in connection
with Thursday's renniiouml, says the
1/union correspondent of The Tribune.
When Sir William Vernon Harconrt
was home secretary she sent a sealed
packet with instructions that it should
not be opened until after her dentil. Sir
William Vernon Harconrt's son went to
the home office on Wednesday, and
after considerable delay tin* package
was found. It contained a memoran
dum covering various points connected
with the ceremonial at the opening ot a
new reign, with a recommendation that
her successor should not be present
when he was proclaimed, and that he
should not visit the city in state Tiieso
were acted upon by the king, and sev
eral new precedents were set. The
queen, a long time in advance, had an
ticipated the annoyances and risks or
the traditional ceremony an i had t.iueii
pains to forewarn and relieve the king.
The German Crown Prince.
London. Jan. 26.—'The German Crown
prince, Frederick William, who left
Potsdam yesterday, was met at the land
ing at Port Victoria this morng by an
equerry ot the, king and a member ox
the German embassy, who accompanied
him to Ijoudou, on his way to Oborin*.
The crown prince, who wore a blacK
suit and a felt hat, remained in his sa
loon carriage during the few minutes
which were occupied in changing at
Victoria station. As the train started
lor Portsmouth he uncovered his head
in response to toe salutes ot a little
knot of on lookers Emperor IMIlum
awaited his son at Pur*.mouth dock-
Yard and greeted him most affection
