The city that the dead General loved
so we'll made his obsequies an event
memorable in the annals of the nation
and a funeral pageant that was worthy
the fame of the last great triumvirate
of American generals.
Prominent among those in the process
sion were Hoyt Sherman, jr., of Omaha,
a nephew of the deceased, Col. w. F.
Cody buffalo BilD, who served under
General Sherman as a scout on the plains
a quarter of century ago, Col. Forsyth

The procession was in five divisions
and several miles in length. The num-

Brief funeral services took place at
the grave, and were conducted solely by

of cooperation and assistance rendered
by members of the local priesthood, and
said that he desired to use his own dis
erection with respect to the character OF
the services and to perform them him.

Amid the booming of artillery the
General was laid to rest beside his wife
and children, and a military guard will
watch the grave.

TORONTO, Ont, Feb. 21.-The Empire,
the leading Conservative organ, asserts
that it has learned, upon undoubted au-
thority, that correspondence has been
carried on between the leaders of the
Liberal party and 'their allies or mas
ters" at Washington, with the result
that the long talked of Hit resolution
or something in the same line will be
passed by the House of Representatives
one week hence in order. to give an air of
veracity to the Canadian Liberal claim
that the United States Congress and peo-
pie are in favor of bringing about unre-
stricted reciprocity.
"This movement" the paper adds,
"will not be sprung until q week before
the election, and such a scheme bears
its own foolishness and futility upon it's
face. The United States Congress now
sitting is a moribund body. Motions
passed by it now no more represent pub
lie sentiment than the DEGREES of the
Shah of Persia. Its life expires in few
days.
"The Republican'party which control it
were hopelessly wiped out at the polls
in November last, and the immense
Democratic ma ority which will succeed
them will feel themselves in no way
bound by the action of their prede-
cessors. No resolutions passed by such
a Congress are worth the paper they are
printed on"
