st. Paul, October samuel j. r.
Mcmillan, United States Senator from
1876 to 1883, died at his home in this
city late last night of anaemia. He
had been ill for nearly year. He was
born in Brownsville, Pa, September
"a, 1926. He studied law in the Office
of Edwin NJ. Stanton, afterward Sec
rotary of War. and after distinguished
career was, in 1874, chosen Chief JUS
tice of the Minnesota Supreme Court.
He was elected to the United States
Senate as the result of one OF the most
noted deadlocls in the history OF the
State. Ex-Governor Ramsey was the
Republican caucus nominee, and Cush-
man K. Davis, the present Senator,
was a boiling candidate. Mcmillan
was elected on narrow margin after
a prolonged contest. In 1881 he was
reelected. While in the Senate he sue
ceeded Roscoe Conkling as chairman
Of the Commerce Committee. He was
prominent in the Presbyterian Church
and in 1890 was chosen one of the two
men from the West on the committee
of revision Of the confession of faith
Of that body.
