Needless to say that there was an exceptionally large atten- dance at the funeral to the pretty cemetery at Ryde, the legal profession being very largely represented.

Emperor William has sent a message to Pies'dent McKinley which is exceedingly gratly Ing in tone. It was communicated to the President on Friday, Just, before the Cabinet meeting, by the German Ambassador, yon Holleben. The exact nature of the communica tion cannot to learned. It is guarded with exceptional care and precautions have been taken to prevent even an intimation of the character of the message escaping official circles. From this it is believed that the communica tion may be the torrenner of others from which the administration expects important results, and that it is the beginning of negotiations of a weighty character. All that is known now is that the messge was most friendly in tone, and that its receipt has given great pleasure to the President and his advisers, Oficially there has been no correspondence between Warblog. ton and Berlin which has been stiff friendly.
The conduct of German ships in the Philip pines appears to be a matter thus far solely be- tween Adralal von Diederichs and Admiral Dewey.
