ARRIVAL AT PORT SAID.
HEARTY WELCOME TO DUKE OF GLOUCESTER. - i (By Telegraph-Press Assn.-Copyright). (Received This Day, 9.30 a.m.) PORT SAID, 'September 9.
The H.'M.S. Sussex has arrived. A salute' of twenty-one guns was unnecessary to awake the populace, who are already crowding the canal front. The Sussex crept to her moorings past the H.MjS. Queen Elizabeth, which was fully dressed and manned. As - the Duke and his stalf, in tropical dress, stood at attention on the bridge, all shipping was be-flagged. The Duke later flew to Cairo to meet friends in the Twelfth Lancers mess, whose guest he was over-night. The Sussex traverses the Canal tonight and the Duke re-embarks at Suez to-morrow.
