Throngs From All Walks in Life Do Last Homage to Dead Pontiff, Whose Body Lies in State in Throne Room --Italian Flags Ordered to Half Mast, (BY ASSOCIATED PRESS) ROME, Jan. 22.--Arrayed in full canonicals, the golden mitre, gloves and ring, the body of Pope Benedice XV lies in state in the throne room on the floor immediately below the apartment in which he died. For many hours Sunday to the room where the pontiff had made his fight for life came a continuous stream of officials, the representatives of foreign nations, high prelates and others. Then, later in the afternoon, in gorgeous procession, composed of palatin guards, gendarmes, the Swiss guard, secret chamberlains and honorary chamberlains, the body was solemnly transported down the royal staircase, through Clementine hall into the throne room, where it was placed on a raised catafalque, before which the whole diplomatic corps paid devout reverence. The sacristan scampi gave absolution and the cardinals sprinkled holy water, while the penitentiaries unceasingly chanted prayers, answered by the kneeling onlookers. Immediately afterward the doors were opened to the multitudes desirous of looking for the last time on the departed pontiff.

He will administer the holy see during the interregnum. With him also was Monsignor Sincero, secretary of the sacred college. Cardinal Gasparri, surrounded by the cardinals, then proceeded to verify the death of Benedict, extending over the lifeless form a silver wand and crying out "Giacomo! Giacomo! Giacomo!
