PRO ESSION FROM THE PALACE
TO CHURCH, '':
IMPOSING CEREMONY IN THE cathedral.
Lisbon, February 9 In cold but beitriful weather, and amid many signs of mourning, the late Don Carlos aud the Crown Prince of Portugal were yester. day conveyed from the palace chapel to the Church of San Vincente for the funeral service. King Manuel, Queen Amelie, and Queen Maria Pis beard the last responses before the coffins were removed, and, each carrying a candle, accompanied them to the steps of the chapel, Both queen's were weeping, and the young King tried bravely to solace them, Neither of the trio followed in the procession. the Duks of Oporio personally superintending the removal of the bodies from the palace.
At ten o'clock the procession began to form. and considerable time was accupied in getting the ten gilded state coaches, which contained the foreign representatives and the high officers of State, and the 200 private carriages into order, As the cortège, moved off from the palace the nurse of the Crown Princé uttered a foud wail and fainted.
The populace to-day flecked in thousands upon thousands to the church of San Vicente, to view the remainaadis Reuter,
It is slated in woll-informed political circles that in all probability the young King will dispense altogether with the Coronation,cess mony.
THEIR MAJESTIEs at requiem MAFÐ WAT ST. JAMES'S, '* Impressive, but simple, was the special memorial service held in St. Paul's Cathedral yesterday morning for the late King Carlos Haud Crown Prince 'of Portugal',
It was simple at the request of King Edward himself, and there was less ceremonial than when the King and Qu'en attended the Requiem Ma-s at St. James's Church, Spanish- place, on Saturday, Consequent on the desire of his Majesty that formality should be dis peosed with, the customary admission of the Sovereign to the City by the Lord Mayor at Temple Bar was omitted. There was also co escort or guard of honour, and the royal party. drove to the cathedral in private carriagen.

But although there was an absence of state ceremonial, it did not prevent the scene in the. cathedral, with its distinguished gathering, from being a brilliant one, from large crowds witnessing the arrival of their Majesties out- side, and attending the service inside. was a good muster of people all along the route as their Majesties drove from Buckingham Arthur of Connaught, representing, King Ed-Palace, by way of The Mall, the Home Guards ward, Prince Leopold of Prussia, Prince Carlos Parade, the Embankment, New Bridge and of Spain, and the Count of Turin, representing Ludgute-hill. the King of Italy.

Inside St. Paul's the arrangements had been admirably made, and everything passed off" exacily as had been planned.

* CROWDED IN EVERY PART,
By hall past ten it looked as though every part in the vast interior was filled. The scene in the nave of the cathedral was made mora sombre and impressive, by the fact of the huge congregation being in mourning, the only bit of relieving colour being the bright scarlet kod gold uniforms of the band of the "Oxfordshire'
ether clergy. The ceremony was procuded by the Dead March in "Saul" and concluded by Chopin' Funeral March,
Their Majesties occupied seats on the Gospel side of the sancipary, being escorted there by the Are bishop, and the Prince and Pilecess Wales, and other members of the royal
