ANXIETY IN ALL QUARTERS.

While the public has been aware for a
week or more that General Logan was con-
fined to his room with rheumatism, many
even of his most intimate friends were, as
late as yesterday afternoon, unsuspicious
of the serious character of the attack, and
to the masses the announcement in this
mornings papers that the statesman lay at
deaths door brought u shock of sorrowful
surprise. All day long carriages of sympa-
thetic callers have occupied the space in
front of Calumet Place, while hundreds of
pedestrians in all walks of life have climbed
the hill upon which the Logan mansion
stands, 10 ask if it were true that all hope
was past Among those who thus actively
expressed their grief and sympathy were
Secretary and Mrs. Whitney, Secretary
and Mrs. Manning. Senators Ransom
and Walthall, General and Mrs. Cockrell,
Mr. and Mrs. Bancroft Davis, General
Malone, Senators Platt, Mitchell and
Eustis, congressman Hit of Illinois and

ators Harris and Whitthorne, Senator and

A NATIONAL LOSS.
SUDDEN DEATH OF GENERAL
JOHN A. LOGAN.
The Warrior-Statesman Gone to His
Last Rest-Affecting Scenes
About His Deathbed.
IsY TELEGRAPH TO THE REooHD-usIos.l

WASHINGTON, Dectm 26th.-General
John A. Logan died at three minutes before
3 o'clock this afternoon. His death, which
came with startling suddenness to his fam
lily and friends, had not been unexpected
by his physicians for some days. The
lurking tendency to brain complication
which had been present in greater or less
degree and constantly increasing in sever
ity during his entire illness, had prepared
them to expect the wont The racking
pains which he suffered during the early
days of his illness, yielded to treatment,
but left him in a weak and exhausted con-
dition, from which he never rallied. and
upon which the fever prayed with increas-
ing violence until the hour of his death
After midnight his pulse grew weaker and
weaker, and at o'clock this morning his
condition was such as to cause great fear of
his immedi DEATH After this he rallied
somewhat, and at consultation, which
was held at 8 o'clock this morning, his
pulse was found to be somewhat stronger,
but his general condition was not such as
TO give any hope of bis ultimate recovery.
DIR. Baxter relieved DIR. Hamilton at the
conclusion of the consultation, and contin-
ued in constant attendance until the Gen
erals death. The physicians again met in
consultation at l:30 P. NJ, when it was ap-
parent that the patient was rapidly sinking
and could live hut few hours.

Let Me Have a Mild
CIGAR.

UyHE ABOVE REQUEST Is HEARD DAILY
in cigar stores saloons and other places.
where cigars are sold, for it is an undisputed
fact that most smokers prefer mild cigar, and
that those who have for a long time smoked
strong cigars, principally imported Havanas,
will, after having thoroughly injured the stom-
ach aud impaired the nervous system, surely
want mild cigar, if they could find the right
kind
How many thousands OF smokers who suffer
from loss of appetite, headache, nervous irrita-
bility, asthma, ETC., and who have tried all pos
sibIe remedies without success, might be cured
if they knew that their sufferings were caused
that they should only smoke mild and properly
prepared ones.
1t is a fact that not all mild cigars agree well
with smokers, for in most cases there is a lack
of care in the selection of the tobacco, and often
the necessary experience for it is wanting, yet
there is one brand which suits the most fas-
tidiOuS smoker and that is

that good health cannot exist with
out healthy Liver. When the Liver
is torpid the Bowels are sluggish

stomach undigested, poisoning the
blood; frequent headache ensues; a
feeling of lassitude, dependency
and nervousness indicate how the

TELEGRAMs on CoNpOLENCE

Have also been pouring in during the day
from all parts of the country, among the
latest being one from ex-senator Conkling
expressing his inability to credit the re-
ported imminence of danger, and asking
for information. Though the doctors had
given no word of hope during the day
yet the attendants, as late as this
noon, refused to give full credence
to the alarming bulletins and whispered
to inquirers something as to the chances
that the sturdy frame of the sufferer and
the united skill of the consulting physi-
clans would bring a revival of vitality suf-
ficient to dominate the insidious poison in
his frame. But this afternoon none ven
tured TO express the hope that the sufferer
would last during the day. Intimate
friends gathered with the
GRIEF STRICKEN AND ALMOST FRANTIC REBA-
TIyEs
About the bedside, while in the spacious
hall and parlors below the ad-faced
group remained in hushed expectancy.
The stifed sobs Of his wife and children,
and the inaI ticulate utterances of the dy
ing man were audible at times through the
mansion. At five minutes before 3 o'clock
DR.. Baxter came out of the sick room and
said to one who was waiting for intelli-
gence simply say he is dying" Then
the voice of prayer at the bedside rose
above the sobs of the stricken mourners,
and with its end ended the life of the war
rior-statesman.

AAoNG IRE HUNDRED EAPRtSsIONS
Regarding General Logan's death, the fol-
lowing are selected as showing the place he
held in The estimation of those with whom
he associated in his daily public and social
life
The President said he was inexpressibly
shocked by the news of Senator Logan's
death. From his own limited personal
acquaintance with him he had formed a
high opinion of him as sincere, frank and
generous man, and his loss would be very
sansibly felt by hcsts of personal friends
throughout the country, who had become
attached to him because of bis qualities of
heart, and bg the people at large, whom
he had served SO well as Union soldier
and in the highest branch of the National
Legislature.

whelmed with profound grief. General
Logan was born, grew up and married in

CONCERNING THE FUNERAL,

1t is stated that the Generals body will
no doubt be taken to Illinois for burial, but
no definite arrangements for the funeral
will be made until Mrs. Logan, who is
wholly prostrated, can be consulted. Sena-
tor Cullen, who was at the dying mans
side continuously from last evening, was
requested to temporarily take charge OF
matters. He sent at once for the Deputy
Sergeant-at-Arms of the Senate, who upon
his arrival, half an hour later, entered upon
the usual preliminary arrangements for the
funeral, by summoning an undertaken and
telegraphing to the Sergeant-at-Arms and
others at distance.

Gen. Logans system was very sensitive
to weather changes of particular kind,
and he has often been heard to remark, in
half-jocular way, that he believed he
could accurately foretell coming snow
storm. The seeds OF his disorder were
sown during the war, his first attack of
rheumatism having followed the immedi-
ate end Of twenty-four hours march
through binding snow-storm. His last
attack, too, resulted from q brief exposure
to a snow storm fortnight ego. and his
death was preceded by bnt a few minutes

80 degrees above.

Jen Davis, memorial church,

Louisville, Nov. 2s-Yesterday at
Fairview there was dedicated q church
erected on the spot where Jefferson
Davis was born. Mr.. Davis was present
and there was an immense crowd, many
of whom couldn't get into the church
aud we're forced 80 leave, as it was ram
ing hard. After the ~dedicatory sermon,

bent with age and supported to the
stand, he made q few appropriate re-
marks, closing as follows:
May he who rules in heaven bless in
diyidually and collectively this whole
community, and may His benediction
rest on this hous Q forever. More than
this it would be improper for me to say.
Mr.. Davis then presented the church q
service OF solid silver. The church is a
handsome brick structure, costing about
$4,000. After the services the crowd
adjourned to a magnificent dinner
spread in q building near at hand, where
all were plentifully fed.

here that q fight recently took place
between a band of Grow Indians and
some Canadian trappers on the Missouri
river in Montana. 1t ia said that the
Indians caught the trappers stealing
game from their traps, and q vigorous
fight ensued. The trappers numbered
fifteen, armed with Winchester rifles
and shotRuns. One trapper VAS killed,
