Grant i'm Washington.

Special in Philadelphia Times.
General Grant was the most conspicuous pub
lie man who ever lived in Washington. He was
known to every man, woman and child in the
district before his name was before the people
for the Presidency. While General of the army
his headquarters were at the corner Of Seven
teenth and streets. He used TO walk to and
fro morning and evening along with the process
sion of clerks and with nothing but his we'll
worn military cloak in winter aud the familiar
figure in summer, the cigar always to distinguish
him from the crowd. He was usually absorbed
in himself and walked mechanically, though
while going to work very rapidly. While
President he was the same sort or man.
He loved good horses dearly and some~
times drove four-inhand drag, but he
usually walked or took street-car. In either
case he was always the cynosure Of many curi-
Gus eyes He had evidently become accustomed
to this and paid no attention to 1t as long as peo-
plo kent out Of his way or did not force them

The Fatal stage of the Disease.

The Fatal Stage of the Disease.
New Yorli Special. I'd.
Although to-days show of strength was nat
urally attended with general expressions of relief
and qualification, the doctors relaxed in no de-
gree their watchfulness, and the anxiety of the
family was only partially allayed. 1t was
feared that the Generals show of strength was
only reused by the drugs and stimulants with
which he had been, dosed, and that the absence
of pain might indicate stage of exhaustion
beyond susceptibility to pain At the
examination of the throat, which was
possible at to-days consultation for
the first time in two days, it was
found that the cancer had made dangerous prog
ress since the former examination, advancing
backward and upward beyond the mares. The
doctors could not see how far it had gone, but
one Of them said that it was the fatal stage and
was of itself sufficient alone to cause death at
any time. The family understood this when
they retired tonight and their qualification over
the evenings gathering was thus shadowed still
by the fear that has overhung the household
since Saturday None have escaped the strain
of the last two days Mrs. Sartoris bears up the
bravest of ALL but Mrs Grant has been sus-
tanned for two days only by nervous excitement.
He Will BE Buried at Washington.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON. April 3.-A dispatch from New
York announcing that General Grant had re-
quested that his remains be inferred in Wash
ington was received here this afternoon. Gen.
Sheridan is to have the matter in charge. 1t is
understood the spot selected is in Presidential
Park, Immediately south of and hundred yards
distant from the White House. 1t is most
charming spot, surrounded by beautiful walks,
drives and fountains, with charming little lake
hard by, while half mile further south, and in
full view, are the Washington monument, the
Potomac river and the hills of Virginia beyond.
1t will afford lovely site for such a monument
as the Nation will erect to the heros memory.
Preparations will be quietly begun for the fu-
neral ceremonies, which will exceed anything ever
witnessed in this country. All Washington is
sad over the approaching death.
