FUNERAL OF GEN. NEWPORT
James Creelman Traces Life Of Civil
War Ouartermaster at Baltimore

Greenwich, Conn. Nov. 3.--The funeral
of General Reece Marshall Newport, who
was auartermaster commandant at Balti-
more during the civil War, was held here
to-day at the hotel where he died yester-
day afternoon from double pneumonia.
General Newport's home was in st. Paul,
but for the last three years he had trav-
elled for his health. He was brought here
when stricken several days ago. The
body will be taken to st. Paul for burial
beside the grave of his wife
General Newport was born at Marietta,
Ohio, seventy-five years ago. He volun-
teered for service when the war broke
out, and his record as captain in the
auartermaster department at Columbus,
Ohio gained him such reputation that
at the age OF twenty-six he was put In
charge at Baltimore. After the war he
became editor of a Baltimore newspaper
and later entered business In st. Paul.
At the funeral an address dealing with
the generals life and achievements was
made by James Creelman, president Of
the New York City Civil Service Commis-
sion, a relative by marriage.

While there is no doubt that the first
Lord Denman was a wonderfully able
lawyer, there is difference of opinion as
to the cleverness of his advocacy of Queen
Caroline, and he was particularly criti-
clsed for having during the course OF his
speech in her behalf introduced the Bibli-
cal case Of the unfortunate woman whom
the Founder of Christianity saved from
being stoned. This was regarded as an
admission OF the Queens guilt by her own
counsel, and led TO the following qua

Modern penology, he said, ignored the

Governor General Evieted.

Lord Denman, Governor General Of the
Commonwealth of Australia, has Just
been subjected to a most extraordinary
aTront by the labor administration or
New South Wales. Pending the building
OF the new capital, according to the ac-
cepted designs Of the young Chicago ar
chitect, with its federal offices and Its
palace for the Governor General, the
latter has been housed until now partly
al Government House in Sydney and
partly at Government House at Mel
bourne, spending six months In the one
city and the remainder OF the year In
the other.
Some time ago the labor administration
OF New South Wales quarrelled with the
federal Cabinet on the subject Of the es-
.tablishment Of national. that Is to say
federal, savings banks-a quarrel with
shioh the Governor General had no con-
eern-and determined to get even With
the federal government. Accordingly IL
notified the Premier Of the Commonwealth
that it declined to place Government
House at Sydney any longer at the dis
posal Of the Governor General, and that
IT needed the building for use as mu-
scum. IL added that the provision Of a
residence for the Governor General was
a matter which concerned the Common
wealth and the federal government, and
that all that could be expected Of the
State Of New South Wales was that 1t
should provide a residence for It's own
State Governor.
Accordingly, on october last. King
nj q
tralia and Governor General, Lord Den
man, left Sydney, virtually evicted from
the Government House, TO take up his
residence at Melbourne until the federal
capital is completed.
That the action OF the Labor admins
tration Of New South Wales is depiored
by the inhabitants OF Sydney was made
clear by the remarkable popular mani
festation which marked Lord Denman's
departure, the Lord Mayor, on behalf o.
The citizens, presenting at the railroad
terminus an address expressing regret
End Indignation at the circumstances Of
Lord Denman's departure, declaring that
the state governments action was I'm
defensible and an objectionable Outrage
on the national hospitality" assuring the
Governor General Of the loyalty OF the
PEOPLE 10 the crown and Of their de-
termination TO have his official residence
At Sydney re-established. The entire
route from the Government House TO the
railroad station was lined 18th dense and
cheering crowds.
SO great Is the Indignation which pre-
walls not only in Sydney, but also
throughout the greater part OF the state,
That the early downfall OF the labor min
istry seems assured. Meanwhile. the sea-
son at Sydney cannot fail to suffer since
tne presence OF the Governor General
there, and especially his hospitalities,
contributed in no small degree TO the
success OF It's season as also TO the pros
perity Of the city. Lord Denman is very
rich, thanks TO his marriage to the
daughter OF the enormously wealthy con-
Tractor Lord Cowdray, more familiar In
the United States by his former name Of
cir Weetman Pearson. Lord Cowdray,
~ is well known. has very large interests
IN this country. in South America and In
Aexico, where he is the principal rival
OF the Standard oil Company.
