President and Practically Ail Official Washington at Admiral’s Bier. WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.—More than ten thousand satlors, soldiers and marines marched to muffled drums to-day on Pennsylvania Avenue as part of the funeral pageant of Ad- miral Dewey. The President and Mrs, Wilson at- tended all the services, going first to the Dewey home on K Street for the family service, thence to the Capitol for the official ceremonies, and nally accompanying the flag-draped cais- son to the National Cometery at Arlington. Mrs. Dewey did not accompany the funeral party to the Capitol, but ed it on the way to Arlington. Between the Dewey home and the Capitol the only funeral escort was the corps of midshipmen, 1,200 strong and in full dress uniform, from the Naval Academy.” The body rested on the same cat- afalque and at the same spot at the Capitol where Lincoln, Garfield and McKinley lay in sts Chaplain John B, Frazier, Dewey's chaplain at Manila, conducted the exercises, and hundreds of the nation’s most distinguished men and women, as | well as Government offictals, the Dip- lomatic corps, army and navy offi- cers, Congressional committees and members of many patriotic societies, were in attendance There was no funeral oration and the occasion, as the Admiral wished, was very simple. After the solemn reading of the funeral service, a quartet sang “Lead, Kindly Light,” and “Abide With Me,” the Admiral’s favorite hymns, From the Capitol the cortege moved down Pennsylvania Avenus, where tens of thousands Ined the walks, In the procession were blue- Jackets from the battleship New Hampshire and other —_ vessels, marines from Norfolk and Philadel- phia, artillerymen from Fortress Monroe and other posts, the Naval Cadets, the Spanish-American War veterans, the Manila Bay Society and many other units, Behind the military in carriages, camo the President, the Cabinet, the Supreme Court, the foreign diplomats, and the committees specially named by Con- gress. funeral procession entered Arlington Cemetery a Httle more than an hour after it started from All except offictal. ve- but all po the Capitol, hicies had been exclude destrians were freely admitted, The body was taken to the mausoleum erected for Lieut, Gen, Nelson A.
