Tho funeral will tako place from bit
lato residence here, a mansion formerly
occupied by a Spanish general. The
body was temporarily placed in a vaull
in El Paco cemetery, where many of the.
American soldiers have been Interred,
and a guard of honor will bo maintained.
When Mrs, Lawton and her four chil

xn'ents for returning to tho United
States the remains will bo token on a
transport with an escort of officers fot
final interment, as Is thought probablt
here, In Arlington cemetery.
General Lawton's death caused uni
versal sorrow in Manila. No American
officer had greater popularity among all
rnnks. and In his dealings With the na
tlves ho commanded their respect and
confidence to a remarkable degree.
The mayors whom he Installed in the
neighboring (owns were arranging tc

To his executive ability nnd personal
leadership is cblofly due the brilliant
execution of the plan of campaign in
North Luzon, which has scattered th
insurrectionary forces from San Istdra
to the gulf nt Llngayen. That section
of the island which bad to be traversed
during the very worst season of the
Tear, presented difficulties considered
by all acquainted witn It to bo almost
Insurmountable, bnt General Lawton
thoroughly covered the program as
