TO-DAY'S CABLES.

THE UNKNOWN WARRIOR.
IMPRESSIVE CELEBRATION OF OUR SUPREME ANNIVERSARY,
A GREAT HOUR.
SPONTANEOUS NATIONAL TRIBUTE OF HOMÁGE
LONDON, November 10.
The Verdun's anival at Dover was greeted with the Field Marshal's salute of 19 guns. All soldiers and sailors afoat on a signal from the Verdun sprang to a general salute as the coffin was reverently carried to the quay while the Irish Fusiliers played the opening verse of "Land of Hope and Glory." The remains were solemnly placed in the train in a wavelling chapelle ardente beautifully adorned with purple and gold trappings, bay leaves, and white towers. Some of the wreaths required five soldiers to lift them. As the funeral train departed from the ancient por: where shers where shut and fings were at half-mast, the people of Dever hastened to special services in the churches. Men, women and children were drawn up at allthe towns and even in the railway cuttings through which the train pursued its way to London. On arrival at Victoria the Old Guard from France with military sextony handed over their charge to a Guard of the King's Company of Grenadiers. Then two sentries with arms reversed and beads bowed, and with hands closing over their rife butts, advanced and began a night long vigil over the casket containing their dead comrade,
LONDON, November 10, ‹
The body of the unknown warrior arrived at Victoria this evening. In the presence of a large crowd a number of mta rished the barriers and mounted the engine. The body remains in the funeral coach all night. ·
HIGHEST HONOURS.
LONDON, November 11. Everything is ready to the minutest preliminary for what will probably go down to history as the most impressive celebration of the day which already has become the supreme anniversary of the British year. It is generally recognised that no such honours have ever been paid as those being offered to-day to the unknown dead, and no greater hour bas ever come in any land. The feeling of sober-mindedness is a strong contrast to the ordinary celebration mood which pervades Londoners.
Scores
of thousands, among whom were many visitors from the Provinces, sallied forth long before the dawn of the Sne automn morning to take up positions whence they could respectfully gaze on the solemn procession from Victoria along the three sides of the rectangular route to the Abbey.
AMAZING CROWDS
LONDON, November 11.
With all the pomp of ceremonies accorded to one of the great ones of the earth, in the presence of enormous throngs, Britain's uckoon wantior symbolising the ordinary common citizen, "the man who really won the war was carried through the streets of London this morning and was laid at rest amongst Britain's immortals in the National Valhalla in the presence of
the highest personages in the land with the King as chief mourner. The scenes in London to-day were never to be forgotten by those who saw them. It is many years since such amazing crowds have been seen in the streets through which the funeral cortege passed, and its deubitul ut such a national spontaneous tribute of bemage was ever paid, even to a dead King of England. Hand- reds of people were so determined zor toʻmas the procession that they stayed in the
streets all night in order to secure good places.
AN EMPIRE'S TRIBUTE.
The most elaborate precautions were taken to prevent the crowding of the masses of spectators. High barricades were erected and vehicular traffic was suspended all day over a large Best End area which has been extended for three days in the vicinites at the Cenotaph and the Abbey during which it is anticipated that the great pilgrimage will last. This morning's papers were practically devoted to the great occasion, ioftily worded leaders recalling the past offering with exhortations "the" for most messages, trom to:
future. Special the Service men breathing inspiring sentiments and eloquent telegrams reoJITEG by the Times from the Viceroy of India, the Prime Ministers of all the Domitions, and Japan, descriptive' articles by zoted writers dealing with the event from every aspect and fire ilustrated supplements, a touching poen by Themas Hardy having as its title the Biblical quotation "And There Was a Great Calm-" all reflect the deep interest the Motherland feeis in the proceedings which will shortly begin to unrail.
KING'S MESSAGE.
LONDON, November 10. On the occasion of the second anniversary of the Armistice, the King telegraphed M. Millerand his confidence that the link between Britain and France forged by the war will stand the test of time triumphantly in peace, as in war." Only by drawing closer their bonds can fatüre difficulties be over. come and their.com.men ideals realised. He further telegraphed the heads of the other Allied States on behalf of the British people an expression of unalterable regard and esteem,
