Members Of the Indianapolis Bar Associa-
ton met in the Federal Court room yester-
day morning to take action on the death Of
its president, Nathan Morris. f. E. Steven
son called the meeting to order and re-
quested Ferdinand Winter to preside.
Ernest Keith was chosen secretary. Mem
bers of the bar who had been closely asso-
ciated with Mr.. Morris spoke eloquently Of
the life of the dead attorney. That Mr.
Morris was held in the highest esteem by
those in the same profession was evidenced
by the many beautiful tributes paid to his
memory. Mr.. Winter showed great emo
ton in stating the object of the meeting.
He spoke of the long and intimate friend
ship that had existed between him and
Mr. Morris. In abiding to Mr.. Morris
benevolent character Mr.. Winter said that
although a Hebrew he was equally an asso-
ciate of the Protestant minister and the
Catholic priest, and was sought by them
for help in charitable work, narrow in
nothing and in touch with all classes.
Many prominent attorneys of the city
spoke briefly on the life and attachments
of Mr.. Morris, among them being Senator
Charles w. Fairbanks, Charles Martindale.
John w. Kern, A. G.. Smith, John r. Will
son and Louis Newberger.

for the march to the Hebrew Cemetery.
The two funerals were formed side by
side. and in this order moved to the ceme-
terry. The many carriages formed pro-
cession of great length, and slowly wended
their way to the south part Of the city,
while people stood in the drizzling rain
with uncovered heads, watching their prog
ress. AT the cemetery a short burial serv-
ice was conducted and a prayer offered by
Rabbi Messing, and the bodies consigned
to their graves. The graves had been
strewn with flowers and lined with roses
by friends of the dead. When the burial
was over three or four wagonloads of flow
ers Were heaped high about them, and the
last respects of his friends. neighbors and
family had been paid to Nathan Morris,
who heroically died with his little nephew,
Frann Haas.

Senator Fairbanks was one of the first
speak ers to eulogize the character, both in
professional and private life. of Nathan
Morris. In part Senator Fairbanks said:

awful tragedy OF Sunday morning that our
lips cannot give appropriate utterance TO
the thoughts which I'LL our hearts. The
grim reaper, in his memorable quest, could
have taken no member OF the bar whose

COMMERCIAL CLUB ACTS.
Resolutions Adopted Over the Death
Of Nathan Morris.


At the meeting Of the board Of directors
of the Commercial Club yesterday noon
resolutions paying a beautiful tribute to
the late Nathan Morris were adopted. Mr.
Morris was actively identified with the
Commercial Club from its organization and
was a member of the board of directors
during the first eight years. At the time Of
his death he was a member of several COM
mittees, and he had always contributed
freely of his time and energy to the work
of the club.
When the resolutions were presented
Judge Frank E. Gavin, the president of the
club spoke briefly of the life and charac-
ter of Mr.. Morris and OF the loss to the
organization and TO the city In his death.
All the other directors spoke informally,
expressing their personal regard for the
dead man. The resolutions were as fol-
lows:
.sResolved, That the board of directors
of the Commercial Club has heard with
profound sorrow OF the untimely death OF
member and friend, Nathan Morris.
..That In the death of Mr.. Morris the club
has lost a faithful friend and the COM
munity a worthy citizen
death Is always an unwelcome messen-
ger. but especially when he calls from
among us one so devoted to his family, so
attached TO his friends and so useful TO his
Community In all things he was a man.
Nav the recollection OF his many virtues
fall as a benediction upon Borrowing friends
and relatives.
..He was taken in the very zenith of his
usefulness. In the words Of another we
can fitly say:
We expect the sun TO go down In the
evening; we expect the stream TO be frozen
i'm the winter; we expect the flower 10
wtther In the fall: but that the sun should
go down at noon; that the stream of life
should be frozen before the chill OF old age
had come upon IL; that the flower should
Wither in the summer. Is sad indeed
but he died glorious death In trying TO
save others. and In this we have consola-
ton and the city an imperisbable example.
Resolved. That q copy of these resoIu-
tons be transmitted TO his family"
