THE VACANCY.

Speculation to Who Will Succeed to the
Empty Seat in the Senate.
Special to the indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON, Dec. ga good deal Of specu-
lation has already been INDUCED in here as to
Senator Logan's successor. The vacancy will
undoubtedly be filled by a Republican, as
the Legislature Of Illinois is now Repub-
lican by reliable majority, and
will soon be in regular session.
Governor Oglesby would. it is believed, be the
successor, were he not in the executive chair Of
the State; and even though he occupies that po-
sition there are those who believe that he will
be elected Charles B. Farwell. the well known
millionaire merchant of Chicago is said
to be the favorite. He was the hearty
supporter of General Logan in his last campaign
for reelection and is said to have the jealous
support. in all his political movements, of the
friends of the dead Senator. Representative
Henderson, who has won 80 much distinction in
and out of the State by his work for the Henne-
pin canal; Representative Payson, who has for
many years been prominent leader on
the Republican side of the House,
especially in land forfeitures, and Representa-
tive Cannon are mentioned as probable contest
ants. Mr.. Farwell has had long experience in
legislative affairs, having served his State in re-
sponsible positions, and for several years, until
the close of the Forty-seventh Congress- was a
member of the lower house Mt the national
capital Mr.. Farwell was succeeded by George
Z. Adams, of Chicago.

General Sherman,s Tribute.

NEW YORK, Dec. 26-The news of Senator
Logan's death was received in this city soon after
it occurred, and in all quarters surprise and re-
greet were manifested Among those who had
known General Logan surprise was most marked,
for they had supposed him to be in almost per-
feet health. and regret with these was deepest,
for it had the foundation of absolute knowledge
of the man. AS the news spread among the
people there was some feeling of establishment
and sorrow. Gen. W. Il. Sherman Was
found at his rooms in the Fifth
avenue Hotel, lingering fondly over
recoections of the early days Of the war, called
up by the news of Logans death. which had
been telegraphed to him at once. Said General
Sherman: 81 first met General Logan on a
boat on the Tennessee river, and from that
time until the close Of the war / had good
chance to know him, as he fought for long
time directly under me. No Drawer man ever
lived He had great personal courage, and
was magnificent in action in battle. He mani
tested Intense devotion to his cause and country.
Probably at the time of his death he was the
most conspicuous example OF the volunteer
soldier living. In late years, in political life.
he was very ambitious, but his desire to be Pres
ident was laudable and fully warranted He
was q constant attendant at army meetings, and
one of our best orators. On the trip to
the Pacific coast, last summer, he seemed
in the best of health. and only two
weeks ago he occupied the next room to
mine in this hotel and seemed to be in his prime.
For some years after the war he was disposed TO
be captous and fault-fnding. but of late wears he
has been beloved by all soldiers both volunteer
and regular During the first period of the war,
he thought West-Pointers we disposed to monop-
oli2e every thing, but was among the trst to &C.
