A week ago Saturday he suffered

plans were made to remove him
to his country home at Laurel, Mil.
There were present at his hcilside
when ihe Senator expired, his wife,
daughter and nurse, and messages
were immediately dispatched for the
other children.

for sagacity and the keenest jndtjinent
in congressional affairs, lie attained
prominence, not only as a leader
in the Senate, hut in the country
at larjrc, and by many men was eonsidered
the moct available man in his
party for the presidency, lie was
chairman of the executive committee
and tnannyed th" campaign that resulted
in the <'lection of Cleveland in

Defeated the Force Bill.
The most notaahle contest of his
congressional career, and one which
attracted to irin w ider at tent ion than
anything else, was when lie led the
Senate minority in lS'tO-PI and defeated
