SIR HENRY WILSON'S FUNERAL

London, June 24. « Sir Henry Wilson will be buried on Monday in the North Transept of St. Paul's, beside the grave of Lord Roberts, Fall military honours will be recorded.

The escort will be formed of six battalions of Guards and six Equadrons of the Housebold Cavalry. The Duke of Connaught will represent the King.

The crime has resulted in the resumption of police protection of Ministers. The press is beginning to admonish the authorities and others not to lose their heads. They warn against parte measures and urge the necessity for adhering to the present Irish policy, so strikingly endorsed by the South Ireland elections.

It is now stated that the police investigations have hitherto not revealed evidence that Sir Henry Wilson's assassins were associated with any far-reaching plot of outrage. raids have now been released.
