WHEELER'S TRIBUTE TO GRANT.
GLOWING WORDS FROM THE
HERO OF SANTIAGO.
AT a Banquet Given by the Ameri-
icus Club in Honor of the Dead
Generals Birthday.

PTTTSBURG, April 27.-Politics gave
Way TO patriotism at the annual ban
quet of the Americas Republican Club
In honor of the birthday of General
Grant tonight, and instead of the
names OF such prominent Republican
Leaders among the speakers as McKin-
ley, Harrison, Reed and Sherman, the
army and navy had the call, and the
guests of honor were General Joseph
Wheeler and Rear Admiral Winfield s.
Schley.
The dinner was held at the Hotel
Schenley, and in many respects was
the most successful ever given by the
club.
Major General Wheeler responded to
the toast Grant
Calm and beautiful the morning OF
July %, 1885, dawned on Mount Nc
Gregor," began General Wheeler. All
nature seemed subdued The rays of the
risen sun fell upon the green hills and
mountains of Vermont, upon the placid
waters of Saratoga Lake and upon the
cottage where a life was ebbing away.
Ulysses 5. Grant was in the immediate
presence of the foe whom none may
conquer, the only foe to whose might
the great warrior has ever succumbed.
For nine long months he had gazed
INTO the face of death, keeping him at
bay with one hand, while, with his pen
in the other, he bravely finished the
work that would make provision for
the beloved wife and children he should
leave behind.
"A few minutes after o'clock the
silver cord was loosed, the golden
bowl broken and the spirit of the
patriot warrior had returned to the God
who gave it, and ere the sun had
climbed midway to the zenith, the
electric wires had told sthe people in
the utmost ends of the earth that Gen
eral Grant was dead In every city,
town and hamlet in our land, heads
were reverently bowed, and sorrow and
sympathy were expressed in every
countenance.
The speaker quoted an editorial from
the Charleston Is. c. News and
Courier of July "a, 1885, paying tribute
to the great commander
He continued: But sorrow endureth
for night and joy cometh in the
morning, ard now that grief and
mourning have claimed their tribute,
we meet mere tonight to celebrate the
birthday of Grant, the magnanimous,
whose memory we delight to honor and
reverence, recognizing him as one of
the nations immortals' whose memory
will be cherished together with that Of
the father of our country"
General Wheeler concluded by re-
calling Grants remarkable prophecy.
AT some future day, the nations of the
earth will agree upon some sort of
congress which shall take cognizance
of international questions of difficulty,
and whose decisions will be as binding
as the decision of the Supreme Court
is upon US.
Whether this be prophecy" said
General Wheeler, "at least it shows
that his finger was on the pulse of the
age
Rear Admiral Schley replied to Our
Navy"
