WASHINGTON, d. C., April 1G.-(Spe-
clal)-In religious faith Senator Vance
was n Presbyteran--of the old school. as
he often expressed it. Mrs. Vance, ths
widow Of Senator Vance, is member
q the Roman Catholic church. She is
his second wife, and is from Kentucky
She was a widow when he married her,
being Mrs. Martin. They were married In
1850. and Just after the wedding they
went to the Greenbrier White Sulphur
Springs. where they remained several
weeks
The selection of Rev. Moses ID. 1oge,
Of Richmond, 10 conduct the funeral cere-
monies In the Senate chamber was APP

nence in the PRESBYTERIAN church. there

Church
TRIP TO EUROPE.
In 1891 Senator ana Mrs. Vance made
an extensive European trip. They arrived
at Queenstown early in May, and after
spending six or eight weeks in ireland,
Scotland. and England. they travelled lei
surely on the Continent until the follow
ing December. when they returned 70
Washington, and the Senator resumed
his duties here. The trip ana change Of
scene seemed to have been Of great bene-

years succeeding his return home he APP
peared 10 be in more robust health he
was cheerful. and did great deal of
hard work. Last spring. however, he b.
gan TO break down again. and was com
PEELED to spend a good deal of his time al
his mountain home in North Carolina.
For more than eight months previous to
his death he had repeated attacks Of i'll
ness resulting in his spending most of
the winter in Florida. When he returned
TO Washington about the first of April
the fatigue of the trip was such that he
felt it ketnly, and he was unable TO
leave his residence or to give very much
II any attention TO his senatorial duties.

A SAD BLOW TO DEMOCRACY
Probable Popuiist or Devout Alliance VIA"
His Successor.


CHARLOTTE. n. c. April le.-Ihe
death Of Senator Zebulon Ii. Vance IN
WASHINGTON Saturday night is regarded as
n sad blow to North Carolina Democracy
IL will in all probability cause Woe
breach IN the party, because his success
sor Is more than likely to be Popuiist'
or at least devout Alliance man
While Senator Vance has to some ex-
tent favored certain schemes that the
Populists andeavored to inaugurate III tne
South. his former Democracy and the
great love that his people had for MN
oyerbalanced his shortcomings as regards
the Alliance move.
Already six prominent North Carroll
mans are In the race for the succession.
Governor Carr who will appoint. Is a
strong Alliance man. having been at one
time president Of the State Alliance. His
views on public questions are about the
same as those OF the Popuists OF the
West. and Il Is a fOregOne conclusion that
His aupointee will hold the same views.
The Governor himself has the senatorial
bee in his bonnet, but he is willing TO
walt a few years. Those most prominently
mentioned for the succession are Con-
gresham s. Il. Alexander. or the sixth
Congressional District; Associate-Justice
\. G. Avery, of the Supreme Court; Judge
Il. T. Armneld, OF the Superior Court;
4. Leazar. ex-Speaker Of the Legislature;
Acknowledgement +. T. Osborne, brother
OF Assistant District Attorney James o.
borne, OF New York; W. W. Robbins,
whose claims were pushed for the Next
can mission. and Associate-Justice Arml-
stead Burwel. Of the Supreme Court.
Congressman Alexander, it seems, mas
the strongest claim on the Governor.
Governor Carr succeeded Alexander as
president Of the state Alliance. ana IL
was mainly through AleXander's influence
that the two factions Of the Democratic
party came together I'm the convention
that gave to Carr the gubernatorial nomi-
nation
The next strongest man is Mr.. Leazar.
He and the Governor are devoted friends,
and both are large farmers.
Associate-Justices Avery and Burweli
will have a large backing, and Judge
Armneld stands vol with the Governor;
Attorney General Osborne Is recognized
as one Of the ablest lawyers in the South.
