 Memory of the Dead Statesman.
PROFOUND SORROW PREVAILS
The Body VIII Lie In state In the senate Chnmbcr-It VIII Then He Conveyed By Special Train to
 It's Last Resting Place.

Washington, Feb. 17.-All that i3 mortal of Senator Marcus Alonzo Han- ma lies Tuesday in the room at the Arr lington hotel, where, after the long, brave struggle, he yielded to death. The remains are being prepared for burial. Thus far. only few of the most intimate friends ot the Hanna family have been permitted to enter the death chamber to view the body. In appearance, the features of the dead statesman are very lifelikc. They indi- cate little cancellation and, on account of the oxygen used during the last days of the senator's sickness, there is an absence of the ashen pallor often pe- culiar to the dead
 An atmosphere of profound sorrow pervaded the hotel throughout the day
 Men conversed in subdued tones and the name of the distinguished dead was on every lip.
 The Funeral Arrangements.
 At council of the members of the Hanna family and some intimate friends of the senator held Tuesday, arrangements were made for the fu- neral. Besides the senator's son. Dan- iel k.
