GEN. SHERIDAN A NATIVE.
Born I'm Albany, N. ", I'm 1881.

Gen. Sheridan declines to be interviewed In re-
gard to the statements appearing In the newspa-
pers by an alleged cousin Of the general, one Nc
Cabe, Of Milwaukee, to the eject that the general
Is native Of Ireland. This story is authortta-
lively pronounced to be wholly false. and it was
learned by a STAR reporter this morning from an
undeniable source that the general was born in
Albany, N. Y, on the 9th day OF March, 1881.
This statement cOnfllcts with the generals record
in the Army register, however, which puts his
birthplace down as Ohio.
WHY PUT DOWN FROM OHIO.
The Washington correspondent OF the New York
Herald says: "Gen. Philip Sheridan was born In
Albany, N. Y, in March, 1881 About eighteen
months later his parents removed to Ohio. which
was appointed TO West Point from Ohio and in
view OF The fact that he had practically known no
other home he allowed himself 70 be registered as
IDENTIFY coniOunded General Sheridan with his
elder BROTHER Patrick, who was OF Irish birth, but
who came 70 America with his parents and died
subsequently in his twenty-1rst year: An elder
sister was also born in the old country, but the
younger children, including Philip and Col Michael
Sheridan, are native Americans"
TESTIMONY FROM ALBANY.
A telegram TO the Herald from Albany says:
At the time Sheridan was made heutenant-general
the papers said he was born here. Old residents
also say he was born here. The family moved to
Perry County, Onio, when he was three years old
