TREMENDOUS OUTPOURING ON THE
8TKEETS OF BERLIN.
The services in the cathedral begun
with a soft prelude on the organ, during
which the mourners begi n to assemble.
Dr. Koegel read passages from the 19th
psalm and verses 2o-Z or the litn rnapter
of John. The choir sang VI Know that
ray Redeemer j Liveth." Passages were
then read from psa'm . 91 and Timothy

cluding with the words,- "Ulessea are
they who die tin tne kord, now ami

shall rest from ! their labors; their work
shall live after them." The prayer was
then intoned, What God doth is well
donA.".
Prince Bismarck and Gen. Voa Moltkc
were uot present at i the service in-tne
cathedral, nor did they take part in the
procession to the mausoleum.
The cathedral presented a i. o n solemn
and impressive , appearance. When the
soft orzan prelude beean th3 court

tions behiud tabourets, bearing the em
pire's insignia. Gen. Von Paj e, holding
the imperial standard, then stationed
himself at the nead or tne comn, tjoin
Lchndorff and Prince RadziwiW, the
late emperor's aids-de camp, with drawn
swods, standing on either side of him,
and the adjutant geuernl and other aids
standing together at the foot of the coffin.
While the organ still played tne royal
ties entered Prince William arriving at
noon. ' -i -
At a signal from jthe chief master of
ceremonies the organ broke into swell
ing tones and Ithe service was be.un.
Prince William, tood in the middle of
the nave behind the imperial standard.
Alongside of him were the King of raV
ony, King of Belgium and the King f
Rou mania. Close by stood the Granl
Duke of Baden, Princes Albrccht and
Henry and! other princes of the royal
house of Prussia, the Prince Imperial of
Austria, the Prince Imperial of Russia,
the Grand Dukes Michael and Nicholas
of Russia, Ithe Prince of Wales, the
Crown Prince of Italy, the Crown Prince
ofDenmark and the Crown Prince of
Greece, all In the uniform of their re
spective countries. The Princess of
Bavaria, the Grand Duke of Hw
other notables and foreign representatives
including Gen. Billot, of France, and
his suite, formed the next ro vs i
nave. The diplomatic pew was crowd
ed. ' - ' ! ' I
The scene; in the cathedral was truly
memorable when, amidst the sti a: ns of
the final chorus and the sharp rattle of
volleys outside, twelve regimental com
mandjrs slowlyi and reverently raised
the conn from its resting place, moving
forward with It on their shoulders to the
Erincipal door, j ! Before, them walktd a
igh court official. On each side of th -,
o 3n were ministers of state bearing on
c4;hi-n theiimpcrh;! crown and scoter
I - i -. ;
and other Insignia. Above the coffin
waved the imperial standard, borne by
Gen. ,Von .Fapc. On each side of hii
walked an officer with draw nword.

tion of the cortege occupied some limp
but was effected in an orderly manner
in igid accordance with the official pro
gramme. , The conspicuous' absence cf
thd emperor, and Count Von Moltke,
and Prince Bismarck was deeply regret
teds. This was the only prominent
change in th arrangements. The pro
cession was in every way worthy of the
occasion. The military display was
magnificent, though somber. The entire

In the morning the French Gen. Billt t

Dr. McKenzie has received several
threatening letters and the emptror
has! given orders that he be specially pro
tected, n
l is feared the emperor will break
down after the excitement attendant on
the5obsequie of his father and his own
coronation. He has maintained good
heaJth since his return. Dr. McKenzie
ha removed his rooms from the floor
-belw that occupied by the emperor to
lihe ijjtik of the chief mourner, the
hei to the throne, accompanied by three
kinjs of German blood, followed by tile
most illustrious representatives of every
European country, whose presence gave
evidence of the universal veneration in
which the deceased was 1 e d, and by a
long line of statesmen all combined to
give the scene an impressivencss that
wa-j reflected in the demeanor cf the
dense throng watching the cortege.
Wepdihg-its way over the castle bridge
and through Unter den Linden, the pro
cession readied the Brandcuourg gate
a few minutes after two o'clock. Linter
denl Liuden presented an extraordinary
spectacle, like tbe gloom of night at
midday. Every t hiug was black houses,
pillars, flags. In the midst of this in
tense somberncss of color irliuimered the
pal light of the lamps veiled with crape
Thejl strangest effect came from the Uar
ing light of pitch torches, throwing over
the 'scene a glare that was tempered by
the smoke of t.ie torches blown uy the
wind. The demeanor of the countless
spectator was excellent. The silence
vas;unbroken. Every one remained un
covered until the cofliu had passed. In
the jSiegesailee, as Jiad been arranged,
the ;pruoesion halted. Crown Prince
William, who had thus far walked im
mediately behi i d the futien 1 car, now
enteYcd a carriage acompaiied by the
kings of Saxony, Belgium and Koumania
lhcs other royalties at the sane time
took scats in carriages following that ol
the JCrown -Priucc. The order of the
protession was now changed, the guard
uu Qorps assuming the place ol escort,
andiOtncers of lower rank relieving tut
pallfbcarers. The cortege then moved
onward until it reached tharlottenburir.
,A3:15 o'clock the remains were re
ceived at the mausoleum by theps stor of
Charlottonburg, and Koegel then read
the prayer, "Blessed is the man vho re-
sistean temptation," and the Lord's
pravtr. I The chaplain then clos d the
solemn service with the bei e iiction.
