Miss Phelps, a niece, were present
when the end came Mr. and Mrs.
Dan Hanna were the first to arrive
and they withdrew Immediately to the
chamber of the senator's wife to sum-
mon her to the bedside. It was while
they were absent the senator breathed
his last
In the meantime Mr.. Mccormick,
Mr.. and Mrs. Parsons and H. NJ Han
ma, a brother, had entered the room.
Mr.. Dover, Mr.. Hanna's secretary,
stood in the door. There were no
distressing incidents attending the
last moments. 1t was a sinking spell
which terminated in death in ten min
utes. Just after Mr. Hanna's eyes
closed in death, Mrs. Hanna was able
to come into the room. She bore ND
we'll under the ordeal and is showing
calmness and bravery.
Displayed Great Courage.
The courage which had been dis
played by Mrs. Hanna was the subject
OF the greatest surprise. She had
been In almost constant attendance On
her husband, though realizing there
was no hope for recovery. Neyerthe-
less the remonstrances of the physi-
clans and the added implorings of her
children that she take some rest were
unavailing until late in the afternoon,
when she was attacked by violent
headache. She was given a sedative,
and then She retired to her chamber,
requesting that she be called as soon
as there appeared to be any change
for the worse.
For the past two days Senator Han
ma had not been conscious except at
Intervals and then only to obey me-
chanically some instructions given
him by the physicians. Fourteen
hours before the end was announced,
life was almost suspended, the flicker
ing spark being kept aglow by the most
powerful scientific agencies, Five
minutes before death came, General
Charles A. Dick came from the bed
side with the announcement: HE is
worse and has only few minutes at
the most"
That statement Immediately pre-
faced the last official bulletin. which
was:
Senator Hanna sank gradually dur
ing the afternoon and died quietly at
$40 o'clock"
MIR. Dover read the bulletin to the
newspaper men who were waiting.
Grief Held Full Sway.
Word went over the hotel like a
flash. The lobby was crowded and a
score of friends were waiting in Mr..
b Dover's room. Though it was known
five minutes before that the word
& probably would be the announcement
that the senator had died, the effect
on his friends was that of a shock.
No attempts were made to restrain
grief. Senators Fairchilds, Scott and
Kittredge broke down. They had re.
mainsd at the hotel all day and knew
there was no hope. General Dick
wept his sorrow at the loss of q
friend, who had been as brother. So
nit was that conversations we're GU.
