ROOSEVELT'S CONDOLENCE
Message Sent to Mrs. o. III. Platt-
Plans for the Funeral.

Washington, Conn. April "A message Of con-
dolence. expressive Of his grief the death OF
Senator Oryile II. Platt. came to Mrs. Plate from
President Roosevelt this afternoon. II was sent
from Glenwocd SPRINGS Col The message also
contains expression Of regret at the inability OF
tbs President to attend the funeral In accord
with the request Of Mrs. Platt. the text OF
the message will not be given out.
There many other messages of coincidence
received. among them being one from. the German
Ambassador, Baron Speck Sternburg and an
other from Mr.. TdkahiTa, the japanese Minister ut
Washington. There We're also many beautiful floral
tributes from personal friends in this and adjoining
towns.
The body of Senator Platt has been prepared for
burial. and it rests in plain. black broadcioth
