Omaha, Sept 29.-Charles Frederick
Henderson of Omaha, one of the most
distinguished citizens of the entire
west, died on board the steamship
Cedric as it was sailing from Liver
pool for America yesterday. The
news was brought to Omaha by cable
grams from c. n. Dietz to Gould Dietz
and by Manson G. McCook to William
Wallace.
General and Mrs. Henderson sailed
from New York early in June for a
summer in Europe, Gen. Henderson
intending to seek some possible relief
at one of the watering places. They
| left Omaha late in May and in Europe
We're in company with Mr.. and Mrs.
C. n. Dietz, Senator and Miss Willard,
and Mr.. and Mrs. Gould DietZ. Word
was received from London some time
ago that Gen. Manderson's condition
was very low and it was uncertain if
he would live to reach Omaha. He
was with the Omaha party on the
Olympic when that steamship was
rammed by British vessel last week
and had to return ashore. and was
sailing On the Cedric, the first avail
able ship.

~. He was twice elected president
pro-tempOre of the senate, serving I'M
der the Harrison administration after
the death of Vice President Morton
in what was practically the vice presi-
dency of the United States. His serv-
ices in the senate were notable. On
returning to Omaha he took up again
his law practice and was made gen.
eral solicitor for the Burlington west
of the Missouri river, succeeding the
late T. NJ. Marquette of Lincoln, in
that capacity. Several years ago his
health broke and he was i'll for a long
time so that his life was despaired
of, and after recovery he gave up ac-
tive work, but was retained as con.
sulting solicitor of the Burlington.
He came to Nebraska in 1869 from
Ohio, from which state he went to
the war as a private in 1861, serving
in all grades up to and including that
of brigadier general. He resigned
from the army in 1865 and returned
to Ohio, where he was elected district
attorney for Stark county, which Of
flee he gave up to come to Nebraska
He was a member of the Nebraska
constitutional convention and was al
ways anxious and a prominent factor
in the politics of the state.
