Senator Leland Stanford is DEAD.
United States Senator Stanford passed
away peacefully at his residencein Palo Alto
California. Senator Stanford was IN the
best of spirits during his last day. He took
drive around his stock farm and seemed az
we'll as ever. He retired shortly after 1t
o'clock. and about midnight his valet, gong
into the senator's room, discovered he was
dead. 1t has been evident for some time
that Stanford's demise was question of but
short time. His symptoms were apopietlc,
and his weight was increasing alarmlngly;
There was a stiffness about the limbs that
made his locomotion exceedingly difficult.
His body was fast growing too heavy Tor ms
limbs to support. He could only take the
| slightest exercise. Six months ago he sent
| for DR.. Curtis. of San Francisco. The doctor
| prescribed heroic treatment. but the senator
was not ready to undergo such drastic meth
| DDS. -.
Apoplectic symptoms increased and his
| condition became such as to create serious
alarm. About six weeks ago it was found
necessary to impose a severely PLAIN dlet
unon the senator. and since that time his
sole food has been fried hashed meat with
hot water as the only liquid accompaniment
| II seemed for time that this treatment
would effect a permanent cure, but III:
strength was not sufficiently great to RESPOND
| to the demands upon it.

IEAvENvorH. Kan. June go. s. Hiatt
of Paramount, who has the contract for the
output of the penitentiary coal mine, cannot
begin to get enough coal to supply the de-
mand made upon him, as his contract only
calls for $1,000 bushels per month, which is
about three car loads per pay. Mr.. Hiatt
says that Leavenworth city alone uses, dur
ing the summer months. sixteen cars of coal
per day. and during the winter months thirty
five and forty cars per day.
Most of the coal now being used IN this
city comes from Iowa and Missouri points
on account of the local strike.

on his wa to the post office. Death was

President Buchanan's administration and
he has always been reappointed by every
succeeding postmaster, without regard Co

perence in handling letters made him so
familiar with names and residences that he
was veritable borough directory.
