The announcement of the sudden death of Alderman Lawler was received throughout the city with surprise and regret. The deceased was widely known, his reputation being national rather than local. He served three terms In Congress from the Second District, in which be was succeeded by la wrenpe XlcGann four years ago. He then ran for sheriff of Cook County, and was defeated by James H. Gilbert.

Last spring he became an independent candidate for alderman from the Nineteenth Ward, and was elected, which office he held at the time of bis Ike Frlead of the Laserta Mam. "Our Frank," as the people In' Ills neighborhood familiarly called him. was entitled to be called one of the best-known public men In the West. He bad been In public life for many years, and by bla labors for the working people won the title of the "laboring-man's friend." He was born In Rochester, N. In 1S42.

and In 1853 removed to Chicago, where he has since resided. When thirteen years old he went to work in a brickyard, and later he worked as a newsboy on the railroad. After some service as brakeman, he learned the ship carpenter -As presU dent of the Ship Carpenters and CaHcerc' Union, he became interested in labor matters and helped to organise the first trade assembly. He was one of the early advocates ot an eight-hour working day. Postmaster John McArthur appointed Mr.

Lawler a letter-carrier, and for the next twelve years he served in the postofflce. During this period he was elected a member ot the city council, serving from 187 to 1884. While in the city council he was Instrumental in having many important ordinance others the closing of the bridges one hour morning; and evening; the compelling of dry goods merchants to furnish seats for their employes; the prohibiting of the employment of children under thirteen years of age in factories. While be was still a member of the council he was elected a member of the Forty-Ninth Congress from the Second District of Illinois, and re-elected to the Fiftieth and Fifty-First. As a Congressman, Mr.

Lawler was a bard worker, and many people all over the country were recipients of his kind office. When the Columbian Exposition bill was before Congress he was one of the most ardent supporters, and when the $5,000,000 appropriation was being considered by Congress he made a special trip to Washington, at the request of the directory, rendering efficient service In securing tbe 12.500,000 which was finally appropriated. He was pre-eminently ine cnampion ot me cause of labor In tbe city council. Among bis noteworthy acta In this line was bis attempt immediately npen taking hla seat to secure a Saturday, half holiday for the laboring mec In the city's employ, also Introducing an order that in- all public works the city should us none but union-made brick. One of his most recent acta was aa order which he pre sented which provided, that the Aldermen salaries should be devoted to the street-clean-.

Ing fund. He was always alert and watchful In what he eouceived to be the Interests of the laboring classes. Resretted ay Hla The announcement of the sudden death of 'Alderman Lawler was tbe cause of general regret at the city halt Many ot the aldermen were la the city clerk's office when tbe aad intelligence arrived. It was a shock -to each and all paid warm tributes to the work of their dead colleague. City Clerk Van Cleave Issued a call for a special meeting of the eity council to be held St 11 o'clock this morning.

The aldermen will, decide to attend tbe funeral in a body and take other appropriate action. "1 have known Frank Lawler ever since be was a young man," said Alderman Campbell. "Although differed In politics and have frequently said sharp things to each other In the council. I entertained the warm-eat eateem for him. Hla sudden: death, was great surprise to me.

Mr. Lawler has al-wtys been the friend of the poor man. I doubt If any man In Chicago has a larger personal circle ot friends than had Mr. Lawler, and they will Join me In expressing my grief." "In the death ot Frank Lawler," said President HeeJy of the county board, 'the poor people of the Nineteenth Ward lose one whom it will be impossible to replace. He was ths most charitable man 1 over knew.

His sympathies were always open; as was his pocket-book, to the needsof poverty." Alderman John Powers My colleague's oeath is a severe blow to me.

His record in the council. In Congress, and In publie life generally has been good. He bad hosts ot friends and it seemed his chief Interest In life was to good to others. I believe I can truthfully say that no one man in the City of Chicago baa ever done harder er more effective work in assisting the poor in bis district than Frank Lawler. Many a family will-ever bold him in grateful remembrance tor his kindly aid and sympathy during their sad bereavement when called upon to part with one of their loved ones.

Alderman Steve Revere I knew -Frank Lawler when be served- la the council with me befcre be went to Congress; in: tact, I bate' known him many He was one of tbe men to whom charity seemed the first object in life." Frank Lawler always called himself a poor man and in spite ot what evil- minded persons have said to tbe contrary, I think he has left his family very little. This entirely to bis Urge heart. could withstand no appeals for atdr ana deatn finally overtook him from hla exertion in behalf ef others. He left bis charity ball tbis morning at o'clock very much exhausted. All night be bad been engaged in the task of raising money for the poor ot his ward and today be is dead.

Aldersnaa Alderman O'Neill The news of Frank Law- ler's death Is Indeed a We bad many disputes in the council, but they were never carried outside. He was a good enemy and a firm friend, and I know of no one who would go further to do a man a favor than he.

Congressman Lo rimer All of ss knew Frank- Lawler and esteemed him at his worth. I' think be enjoys as gcod a reputation in Congress as any Democrat who ever sat there from Chicago in Washington he was untiring In his efforts la behalf of Chicago. He did valuable service for tbe World's Fair and was always ready to welcome and aaaiat those from home without regard to their. politics. Alderman.

BrenDsn Frank Lawler was ud tiring in hla efforts to do a friendly favor or-accompitsn- any request asked by a constituent. Nothing "was ever too- trifling to receive his attention.

For a long time past he had been afflicted with stomach troubles. which three weeks ago assumed an acute form and compelled him to take to his bed. Since then he gradually grew worse until his death. n. Mr.

Casey waa born Ireland sixty-five years ago. but aa he waa a very reticent and uncommunicative man. but little of hla early life Is known. He came to this city in 1834 by boat from Cleveland, and ever since lived here. He waa probably longer connected with the liquor business than any man In- Chicago, and no one la that line waa better or more favorably known in the down-town districts.

Of a quiet and retiring disposition he waa rarely known to engage in any discussion or lengthened conversation with customers, no matter how long and intimately they had known him; but he waa observant aad an acute Judge of character. He had. too, a keen sense of humor, and on the Infrequent moments when he wosld become communicative, hia analysis and descriptions of well-known politicians and othera whom he had met were aa witty and discriminative, as they were terse and caustic. Boms years after bis arrival here, and when yet but a boy, be became a member-of the volunteer Are department and was enrolled Feb. 7.

The "Red Jacket" company having been disbanded, a new No. 4 company, known aa the "Humane," waa organized, and in May, 1863 Mr. Casey Joined It and remained a member until it also waa disbanded In 1S58. Thla ended his connection with the fire department, aa he had already more than served the required term of seven years, which entitled him to his discharge and a diploma. His connection with the volunteer firemen seemed to be one ot the most cherished of his memories, and he took pride in the fact that he was a member of the veteran association comprising the fire-fighters ot those early days.

Tonight a meeting of the association will be held In the office ot Chief Bwenle to make arrangements about attending the fooeral and paying a tribute ot respect to the remains of their dead comrade. Mr. Casey'a first business venture In Chicago waa as a cigar dealer. This was late In the 4os, when he opened a cigar stand In connection with the "Snakespeare" saloon, located at Madison and Dearborn streets. Giving up that buslnesa he opened a saloon, which he called the "Crystal Fountain," at the eoutheast corner of Madison and Market streets.

This became a great resort for firemen, and tbe place prospered until it was destroyed in the big fire of 1871, the proprietor losing his all, as he waa not insured.

Mr. Casey was aa well, if not better, known, and had probably more frienda than any other man in his line of business In Chicago, Reticent and unassuming, but ever courteous and attentive, he became In a measure a public character, and more so by bis mental acutenese atmd peculiarities rather than by his long occupation in one bualnesa or from the fact that be was one of the old settlers.

In the fsce of the declaration of the Turkish government that it will not permit them to enter Armenia for the purpose of succoring the wounded and those suffering from the effects of the cruelty In progress there. This sctloa of the Turkish government was not only a surprise to Miss Barton, bnt to all who are familiar with the work of-the association and the agreement tinder which it was formed.

And it may be added the ac tion of the Turkish government la this matter causes great Indignation as well as surprise.
