SOLICITOR EOWlhP. HANNAOfAD
ASSISTED CAPT. LEMLY IN
scHLEY COURT OF INQUIRY.
Was Made Solicitor of Navy Depart
ment When Office Was Created
and Held It Ever Since.

Edwin p. Hanna, solicitor OF the Navy
Department, died last night at $40
O'Clock at the Naval Hospital of acute
uremia, after an illness of less than ten
days From last Monday afternoon his
condition became steadily worse. and
fina ly his son was called by telegraph
from New York.
Funeral arrangements have not yet
been completed. but the services will
probably be held tomorrow afternoon at
the family residence, 200 Goth street
northwest, and will be conducted by a
Presbyterian clergyman. The intement
will be in Rock Creek cemetery. Mr..
Hanna was in his fifty-ninth year. He
is survived by son, Frank r. Hanna,
who lives in New York city, and three
daughters, Margaret, y ice and Lulu
Hanna.
For more than ten years Mr.. Hanna
had been in the judge advocate general
office of the Navy Department and was
made solicitor of the department when
that position was created as q separate
office. During these years he has handled
many important cases for the Navy De-
partment. including the Schley court OF
inquiry which he conducted In conjunc-
ton with Capt. Lemley, judge advocate
general. The work in the judge advo-
Gates Office always called forth the praise
Of his superiors and he was retained
through each change of administration.
Mr. Hanna was born December 81. 1850
at Chester, Ill. He attended the Kansas
Agricultural College anu alterward tie
University of Michigan, where he was
graduated with the degree OF a. Is. When
young man he moved with his Family

versity became associated with his father,
who was a prominent newspaper man in
that state, in the management OF the
Salina Herald.
In 1874 he came to Washington with
his uncle. the late Col. w. \. Phillips,
who was a member Vi Congress fro n
Kansas. He was an expert stenogra pheI
and became private secretary to Carl
Schurz when he was Secretary of tn
Interior He held the same position
under Secretaries kirkwood. Teller and
Lamar.
After completing law course at Co
lumbar University he took up the prac-
tice of his profession in this city. Some
time before the Spanish-American war he
went into the office of the judge adyo-
cate general of the Navy Department and
was soon promoted to chief clerk. In the
Schley court of inquiry he acted as
sociate counsel for the government. When
in 1907 Congress passed an act creating
the office of solicitor of the Navy De-
partment ne was appoin ed the Office.
He took an active interest in the affairs
OF the Y. NJ. G. A, and for long time
taught stenogcaphy there. For several
years he has held the chair OF lecturer on
naval law In the United States Naval
N dical School.
He was great chess player and held
the championship of the District until his
official duties prevented him from giving
further time to the game
