Quietly Saturday Noon.
Thousands Of Sympathetic Messages
From All over the Country.

VIII BE a Great Event,

NEW YoRK, February 14-Gen. Thomas
Ewing, who came from the house at o'clock,
said he was In Gen. Sberman's room when
he died. and that death was caused by an
accumulation of mucus In the lungs which
the General was unable to throw off. There
was no sign of death beyond faint gasp
and stoppage OF breath. Besides Gen. Ewing
there were at the bedside the Generals four
daughters. Mrs. Fitch. Mrs. Tbackera, and
Misses Rachel and Lizzie Sherman, Mrs. Col
gate Hoyt, her niece. Lients. Fitch and
Thackera. DR.. Alexander and nurse. The
end came peacefully and quietly at 1.50
o'clock, while the General lay unconscious,
surrounded by all the members of his family
except Thomas Ewing Sherman, WHO'S now
on the ocean on his way to this country.
There was just slight culver OF the mus
cies OF the face, the old soldier ceased to
breathe, and all was over. Although all
nope had been abandoned for hours, the
shock was great to the mourning friends at
tne bedside, and for many minutes no one
ieit the room. They hung over the death
oed weeping and gazing on the stilled face
so dear TO them. Then young Thomas Ewing
left the house, and his appearance, even be-
fore he spoke word. was the signal to those
who waited without that all was over. He
FASTENED to the telegraph Office around the
corner, but the reporters were there before
him, aud before he had reached it the news
Oh the Generals death was spreading far and
wide over the wires throughout the country.
Shortly after, Secretary Barrett reached
the telegraph office and sent messages an
nouncing the Generals death to President
Harrison, Secretary Blaine, Secretary Proc,
ter. Mrs. Rusk and many others. He could
not restrain his tears. "ae died like babe
falling asleep" he said. ''There was no
suffering, no pain. After 10 O'Clock he lay
motiOnless, and but the very slightest respira-
tion showed life still existed. DR.. Alexan-
der was by tn , bedside, along with members
OF the family. Before noon time all had
agreed that death was merely question of

THE SESSIONS LENGTH.
Not Much Important Business Done
at Saturdays Session.
Especial to the Press. ]

AUGUSTA, February 15-The prospect now
is good for a session extending we'll into
April. Although the legislature has been in
dustrious in private matters, little las yet
been done on the more prominent questions
of the session.
The report of the Valuation Commission
has not been made, and will not be, so
member says. within two weeks.
The legislature held its first Saturday ses-
sion today lt is almost unnecessary to say
that it did not DO much work. MIR. Shaw of
Portland, in order to show who we're doing
their duty and who had gone home after vot-
ing yesterday not to adjourn until next
week, asked Tor a roll call in the House. To
this "a members responded, showing that
there was a quorum present. 1t was half
past nine when the roll call was finished.
At Just i've minutes to 10 there was an ex0-
aus OF members anxious to catch the 1910
train for home. This left 25 minutes during
which the House was competent to transact
business. but as nothing of Importance was
brought forward after the quorum was brok-
en-, the point OF no quorum was not raised.
In the Senate there was similar exodus at
train time. The House cOncurred with the
Senate in passing the appropriation bill and
In referring the capisal commissioners re-
port to the committee on public buildings.
This was the only action of any Importance,
although the session permitted various bills

However, 1t is much TO be doubted IL this
Saturday session has brought final adjourn
ment any nearer. The victory of the friends
of Saturday sessions seems to have been
rather fruitlese one. In the House, action
on the bill TO increase the salary of the sec
retaIy of the Board of Agriculture aud on
that TO amend the Waterville city charter
was postponed because there was so small
an attendance.
Matters presented today were as follows:
Petition of N. S. Gardiner and others for a
ch rter for The Sunderland Telephone Company.
Petition of j. Moriarty, chief OF the Lewiston
fire department, and ii. M. Estes. Ernest &c CHI

Hatner Too suIphurous for Common
Domestic Use.

rEoRiA, ILL.,, February 15.-Yesterday
Drought startling revelations In the con-
spiracy OF George J. Gibson TO blow up the
Snufeidt distillery at Chicago. It is now
known that Gibson bought 90 pounds Of dyn-
amite from A. r. Barnwell some time ago.
The druggist from whom the arch-plotter OBJ
tained the Ingredients of the deadly fluid
found In bis satchel at Chicago has been dis
covered. Gibson bought the different con-
stituents separately and mixed them him
self. The stuff was made OF six parts OF bl-
sulphate carbon and "a parts phosphorus.
He purchased these chemicals three
weeks ago. There is no doubt that Gibson
has left the city as he has not been seen sines
Thursday. Members OF the trust no longer
deny that he has gone. They say he got out
OF the way because he was afraid he would
have TO face additional charges and his bail
would be largely Increased. Detectives are
here looking up data In regard TO the cOnspl-
raey. IL Is probable they win also endeavor
to find cut which way Gibson has gone, and
who were backing him In his attempt TO de-
stroy the distillery. Gibson Is supposed TO
have fled TO South America.

WASHINGTON, February 14-The news of
General Snerman's death was received at the
House OF Representatives few minutes be-
fore 2 O'Clock. and the members to whom the
message W as handed conveyed its contents
to their associates, so that In a short time 1t
was generally known.
About O'Clock message was received
from the President announcing the death of
General Sherman, but, alter a consultation
between the Speaker, Mr.. CutcheOn of Mich
lgan and few others, it was decided by Mr..
Reed, In view of the near expiration Of the
Congress, and OF the necessity of getting the
appropriation bills over to the Senate as soon
as possible, that it would not be advisable to
lay the message before the House until near
the usual time of adjournment. 1t was then
referred to the committee on military affairs,
which will report appropriate resolutions Of
respect to the memory of the dead general,
and recommend that the House take part in
the funeral services, If that be in consonance
with the feelings of the family.
