"BEs5ANIs HARRISON"
When the message from the President
announcing the death of General Sher-
man was laid before the Senate SEN
ator Hawley Conn rose and offered
resolutions reciting the profound sor-
row of the Senate at the announcement
and renewing that body's acknowl-
edgment of the inestimable services
which he rendered 10 his country in the
day OF its extreme peril, lamenting the
great loss which the country has sus-
tanned and deeply sympathizing with his
family In its bereavement. The reso-
buttons were adoped unanimously, and
the presiding officer was requested To
appoint a committee of five Senators TO
attend the funeral of General Sherman.
The names of the committee we're not
announced. Before the resolutions
were adopted, however, culogistic adj
dresses were made by Senators Morgan
tAla), Henderson (Neb), Davis
MINI and Evarts IN. W.
LONDON EDITORS EULosTZE SHERMAN.
LONDON, Feb 1s.-The London news
papers all contain long obituary articles
eulogistic of General Sherman. The
Time says his death removes one of
the greatest heroes of great
war and inpoverishes the worlds
stock of military genius and renown.
The Standard says: Refusing to be
drawn into the mire Of politics, General
Sherman enjoyed the esteem Of all par
ties and died without a stain upon the
luster of his erIns-as free from re-
proach as from fear"
