John Sherman.

The nations estimate of John Sherman
has been fairly well formulated, in view OF
the fact that his years of activity had
closed some time before his death That
estimate is i high one, regardless OF paru-
san and sectional rancor, irrespective OF the
ups and downs of the active political LIE
which the great Ohioan led for over half
century. 1t embraces the two great phases
of Mr.. Sherman's life. as a legislator and
as a fnancier. AS legislator his career
should ne subdvided well, for he was a
a. man of two chief lines of activity, that OF
financial construction and that OF loyalty
to the Union. Nothing finer is recorded in
the history of the republic than SIr. Sher-
mans refusal to compromise with the
southern members in 1859. when few
words of acceptance of the south's views on
slavery would have won for him the ar
IDENTIFY coveted speakershp. In the eight
weeks of ballotIng. during which he stood
firmly by his pronounced views against
slavery. Mr.. Sherman rose to heroic
heights
As fnancier Mr. Sherman will best be
known both as legislator and admins
TRAITOR He served in Congress at a time
when the nation needed the steadiest OF
hands upon the helm. The money of the
republic none too secure The great
crisis of the rebellion called forth eXtraordi-
nary men in the field. whose activities
would have been useless had there not been
an equally devoted band of men at the cap
ital strainins every nerve to maintain the
country's credit Secretary Chase and Sen
ator Sherman, who succeeded him in the
upper house were a host in themselves in
the fight to prevent the collapse of the
treasury. When in later years Mr.. Sher-
man himself undertook the administration
of the finances he showed the results of his
legislative experiences. and once more he
made a record which will remain monu-
mental. His mastery management of the
finances in preparation for the resumption
OF specie payments was an achievement
alone sufficient to make his name notable
in American history.
In later years Mr. Sherman has presented
a comparatively feeble figure in public life
This was largely the result of comparison
with the intense activities of the war pc
Rod and to a certain extent the result Of
political environment His successive de-
feats for the republican nomination for the
presidency in 1880. 1854 and 1sSS greatly
weakened his force and his confidence in
himself He had easily risen to the presi-
Dental stature Yet his party was rent by
factiOnal strife. and as he lacked the quail
ties of the compromising politician he failed
TO reach the goal on which his heart was
set. His interest in foreign affairs during
recent years never caused him to rise to
the heights upon which he had scored his
great successes a fnancier.
1t is difficult to embrace the whole of such
a long. active. useful. brilliant career in a
brief estimate. But the general sentiment
which undoubtedly animates the country
today with regard to John Sherman is that
he was man worthy to stand in the front
rank of the nation makers.

Weyler.

Gen. Weyler brought Spain to the verge
Of utter ruin through his cruelties In Cuba
He has now caused the collapse of the
Spanish ministry and has brought the
crown to a serious issue in domestic poll
tics. He is clearly not a mascot for Spain.
He represents the hard aggressiyeness of
the conservative. the tenacious sticking to
old thoughts, the implacable execution of
relentless policies SO characteristic of old
Spain. 1t is hardly his disposition. now that
the coveted captain seneralship of Madrid
has been so nearly within his grasp, to give
way to the opposition without a struggle.
The objection to Weyler's appointment was
based on the ground that it savered too
much of the organization of a personal
machine by the crown. The progressive
elements in Spain are anxious to break
loose from the old militant spirit which has
been one of the mainstays of the throne.
To many Spaniards Weyler stands as a
symbo! of the cause of Spain's sufferings
and losses during the past few years, and
they would prefer that he be kept out Of
sight and particularly out of honored places
while they are proceeding with the work of
regeneration

4 Useless Functionary,

Chicago newspapers are waging sharp
warfare upon the Office Of coroner just now.
but with little hope of success. The utter
uselessntaS of the Office has been estab-
hshed, yet there is small chance that the
legisla ture Will submit 20 the people a con-
sttutional amendment which If adopted
would abolish 102 lucrative offices in the
state. 1t is believed that the pressure from
iEcumbe1.s of and aspirants for these Of
fees would be sufficient TO prevent the lay
ing of the case before the voters. Never
theless the agitation continues, 1t has
developed III other cities where the use
lessness of this office has been from time
to time made clear to the people. In Mas
sachusetts a crusade against the coroner
succeeded sixteen years ago and the duties
which formerly pertained to the "crowner'
were transferred to the health boards OF
the state, which have since performed them
to the entire satisfaction of the public.
The coroner was once an important ami
useful member OF the municipal administra-
ton. He was early on hand In case OF

Sudden Death.

From the New York Herald
Whenever death occurs from heart failure
there Is a suddenness in the event that is
startling. Generally it is as If the victim
were struck with lightning-one gasp, no
other breath-and all is over.
The other day a paper simply fell from a
passengers hand and his comrade looked to
see him limp and lifeless. Another man
while conversing with a friend stopped in
dropped one shot.
In the case of Mr. Charles Dudley War
ner, whose death was reported yesterday,
there was a slight preliminary warming
long enough to allow him to stagger into a
convenient house before the end came.
There appeared to be no special provoca-
ton for the attack of faintness Indeed.
this seems to be the rule when age adds its
feebleness to that of a chronic disease.
There apparently comes a time when the
heart can no longer bear its burden and
ceases beating from sheer exhaustion
When the victim receives the premonition
of death the feeling of faintness is distress
iEgly oppressive and is said by pathologists
to be due to the overdiStention Of the heart
walls by the accumulation Of stagnating
blood in their cavities.
This sensation is believed to be casioned
by the well known responsiveness of the
sensitive nerves of the stomach to those of
the heart. Thus is, in a measure explained
the reason why SO many stricken patients
call for water in the vain hope of being re-
lieved from their distress. which Is then OBJ
viously enough past all remedy.
In the particular form Of heart disease
from which Mr. Warner is said to have
died there is usually no pain. The patient
simply sinks into insenSibiity as the result
of the quick and overwhelming shock.

mystery and sometimes found valuable facts
which led to the clearing of clouded crimes.
But the times have changed. The news
papers have in large degree rendered obso-
lete the coroners office. The almost in
Simultaneous spread Of the news of a crime
a disaster has caused the people to be-
come active agents for the prosecution
Evidence is not so difficult to secure. 1t is
within the power of any conscientious pros
ecuting attorney in few hours to formu-
late the average fatality for consideration
by the grand jury, without the Intervention
of the clumsy machinery of the coroner and
his jury.
In cases where criminal responsibility for
an accident is suspected there is always a
method of ascertaining the facts through
the health department, or through the po-
lice force direct. There is no need for the
formal sitting of a jury, which always
suhscribes to the coroner's decision, In or
der to narrate facts which as a general rule
are patent to every person. 1t does the
public good and 1t advances the cause
of justice no step for such a jury solemnly
to declare that man who is found lifeless
in the street is dead, by means unknown,
from receiving a blow from some blunt
instrument, or from pistol wound, or from
poison. from natural causes. when such
a condition would be clearly established to
the satisfaction of a court officer through
the medium of a medical examination.
Washington has made various efforts to
secure the adjustment of the coroner sys-
tenn. Many farcical illustrations of the
inutility of the office have been adduced.
A least one incumbent of the office has
recommended its abolition. Yet Congress

Nearing Full international Harmony

A further exchange of notes between the
United States and France has occurred, ap-
parently with the effect of making even
more sure the opening of negotiations with
China with an unbroken front of foreign
powers acting upon the basis of Chinese
territorial integrity and governmental re-
sponsiblity. The purpose of the French
note was to propose the preparation of a
joint note to show China that the powers
are animated by the same spirit, that they
are decided TO respect the integrity of
China and the independence of its govern
ment. but that they are none the less
solved to obtain the satisfaction to which
they have a right" The American reply
goes further and suggests that the powers
Include part of their initial declaration
a collective manifestation of their deter
rlination to preserve the territorial integ-
rity and the administrative entirety of
China and 10 secure. for the Chinese nation
and for themselves. the benefits of open
and equal commercial intercourse between
the Chinese empire and the world at
large
In other words. the United States hopes
to secure a pledge by the powers to main
tain the open door of trade and the integ-
rity Of the empire a virtual condition
shown in the news story today, this pro-
posal made without knowledge on the
part of this government that there was an
agreement to this same effect between Eng
land and Germany. Thus the United States
is now placed once more record as ia
voring these two great propositions. Ger
many and England are formally bound to
the same doctrines. France has herself
proposed the integrity of China and the in
dependence Of her government. The open
door of trade is natural corollary to this
proposition.
Russia is therefore the only frst-class
western power-the governments of Austria
and Italy being in this connection prac-
tically negligible-which is not on recent
record on these precise points. Japan has
made no expression on the subject, but her
acquescence is assured. The French note
II is thus to be seen. is a move toward
unanimty of action along the very lines of
the Anglo-German alliance, which are the
lines of American desire.
