M-l A 1 I Secretary Gresham died early mi Tuesday morning. The bulletin sent out on Monday might plainly indicated death. When a patient sixty-throe years old. exhausted with a complication of diseases of the alimentary organs, is taken itli acute pneumonia. the chances of recovery are cry re mote.

Death sometimes removes a cahinet officer, but these fatalities been comparatively rare. The ablest man who ever filled the position of Secretary of State. Daniel Webster. Jied in office, Another very distinguished Secretajy. James G.

Blame, retired from President Harrison's cabinet, suffering from a fatal disease and died in a few weeks. Secretary Oresham was not an olt man, and if he had continued to quietly discharge the duties of Circui Judge, which were congenial to his taste, and for which he was well equip ped, he might have lived to a great age, President Cleveland would have made him a Justice of the Supreme Court at the first opportunity, and this would have satisfied his ambition. When he broke with the Republican party in 1S92 he gave up all hope of being President. It was a mistake for him to accept the premiership in Cleveland's cabinet. The position is laborious under any circumstances, but it being the purpose of President Cleveland to overthrow, and if possible to discredit the foreign policy of the previous administration, his Secretary of State was charged with duties and responsibilities which over-taxed his physical powers.

He broke down died. Judge Gresham was a brave ami patriotic man who served his country to the best of his ability in and in peace. At the breaking out of the enlisted as a private soldier, but er actually carried a musket. When the regiment to which his company assigned was ready to be organized lie was elected lieutenant- colonel, ami hu went to the front with that rank. He earned his promotion by tallautry in action.

There is an impression abroad that Gen. Oresham and Gen. Harrison, were not in accord as leaders of the Indiana and that while they both aspireil to a nomination for the presidency, neither was willing to help the other in attaining the object of his ambition. Harrison became President ithout receiving much assistance from Gresham. aud it is commonly that Gresham's subsequent political course was largely influenced by this personal antagonism.

But putting aside all political ambitions and political mistakes Judge Gresham will have an honorable place in the history of his country. To have been a brave soldier and an upright judge is no ordinary distinction.Judge Gresham missed being Preiident. but it can not be said that his countrymen entirely over-looked his distinguished services. He'lied leaving vacant the -first piace in the President's cabinet. and the record of a pure and upright life.

The individual com- million cup was not recommended, although not absolutely prohibited. One of the most difficult questions that before the Assembly was the marriage relations of Orientalcoiivcrts.

The patriarchal institution of poly- still exists in tho East, and when a man of high caste embraces Christianity, what is to be done with his superfluous wives? Ale they to be turned loose to become degraded outcasts? Or will Christian morally permit them to be sheltered in tho home of the master who has held them in a sort of marital bondage? An overture came i Synod of India asking the General Assembly to make a deliverance ou this matter: but when the overture was reached in the closing hours of the session, there was no time for ing it proper consideration, aud it was referred back to the committee, ho had sought to dispose of the subject by recommending "no action." WALTER Q.GRESHAM The Last of President Cleveland's Secretary of State. HIS SON ARRIVES TOO LATE. THE GENEKAL ASSEMBLY. Considering the disturbing questions that came up for adjudication the Presbyterian General Assembly which has just adjourned was, a remarkably harmonious body. It met at Pittsburg.the very citadel of orthodox Calvinism and this probably had something to do with the preponderance of conferva tive delegates.

Judge Harlan is now suffering the penalty that is sura to follow the delivering of a political opinion from the Supreme Bench. He has been nominated for President by a newspaper which concurs in his views.

He has a goo 1. big head, which has always heretofore been a level head, and is possible that he may be able to ake this vdlj adulation, at its true within therneiuory of thepres- ut generation.three veryable and learn justices of the Supreme Court took matter like this seriously aud two of were grievously disappointed. ustice Field thought that the Detno- ratic nomination might come to him some way, on account of the atisfaction which his opinions on the ecoustruction acts gaye to the South, ut he never made any effort to start "boom," and he is still content to be judge- It may also be remarked hat he has lost his grip on the Demo- ratic party, and he is now remaining the bench in his old age, to prevent Democratic President from appoint ug a suece-Kr who will favor the in- ome tax. It was different, however, with tidge Davis, and Chief Justice Chase. Joth of these eminent jurists and tardy patriots dreamed of a great onservative party which would take the South, and each regarded hiui- elf.

the logical candidate of such a arty. After close of the war, acli of them sitting in the circuit ourts. made decisions which tended restore the old doctrine of the rights the states, aud to exalt the civil over lie military power. Chase would a tnken ihe Democratic nomination 1N)S if he could haye got it, and lie failure saddened his life. Justice Jayis left the bench and allowed him- If to be elected to the Senate as a tepping stone to the Presidency, but he course of eveuts was against him and president pro tem of the Senate as the nearest that lie came to the oal of his ambition.

Both Chase and Davis founded their icjpes upon the dissolution of the Ue- ublican party. They supposed that laving saved the Union, it had accomplished its purpose, and that lew party would take its place. But he old party has outlived both 01 distinguished jurists, and wil probably outlive the youngest of their successors on the Supreme bench. We now approach ing a crisis caused by the demand for the free coinage of silver, and it may be possible that Justice Harlan sees a disruption of the party upon that question: or he may suppose that the national Republican convention may feel constrained to concede the candidate to the South, in order to prevent a disruption of the party. In that event what man would measure up to the place except himself? This, however, iaa mere speculation.

The probability is that the presidential idea was not in Justice Harlan's mind when he delivered his opinion. The newkpapcr men are the authors of the ''bourn," and it may have no existence except in their sensational despatches. Those enthusiastic crowds of citizens which the New York World posted alons the avenues leading to the Capitol to hail Judge Harlan as tho coming man. a no existence outside of its columns. They are phantoms of the imagination.

Harlan is a big enough man physically and intellectually for President, but when he reaches the office it ill not be through a "boom" invented by the New York World. Hming of an Honored Life- Sorrow in Official Circles. WASHINGTON, May Quinin Uresham, Secretary of State, died his rooms at tho Arlington Hotel at 1.15 o'clock this morning. Death was lue to pleurisy, complicated by acute aud heart failure. At the bedside, when the statesman passed away, were Mrs.

lie was met at the station by Assistant Postmaster-General Jones, who is a near personal friend of the family, who ii'formed him that the end had come. He was prepared for the news, as a telegram from Mr. Jones had reached him at Altoona, saying that he must be prepared for the worst. THE END XOT EXPECTED. While Secretary Gresham's phi'si- ians aud family had throughout yes- realized that his condition was very serious, it wai not till after live o'clock in the evening that they abandoned hope of his recovery.

About 5 o'clock such a sudden collapse overcame him that his physician, Dr.Johus- tou, ho had been constantly iu attendance throughout the night anl day. became very much alarmed, and, as almost a last resort, began immediately to administer hypodermic doses of nitro-glyceriue aud digitalis, the most powerful heart stimulants known to medical science, The sufferer recovered slightly, but after two severe rigors shortly before 11 o'clock he began to fall rapidly and his vitality began to ebb.

Tue Secretary was conscious all day, and almost to the time of his death. He spoke at intervals to Mrs. Gresham, who, although not strong in health, was devoted in her attention during her distinguished husband's illness. The patient fully appreciated his condition, but at times his mind wandered slightly. lie spoko of his absent son, aud his private secretary, Mr.

Land is, whom he loved as a son, and like his son, was speeding to his bedside, all too late. Just before the physicians retired he ceased speaking, though ho appeared to be conscious. Mrs. Gresham occasionally read to him from tho Bible passoges which he loved. At 1.13 o'clock his breathing ceased, a peaceful shadow pissed over his pale countenance, his puiae flickered and the sorrowing family were in the presence of death.

The remains of the Secretary have been embalmed, and will be committed to the casket tonight. They will lie in State at the Executive Mansion tomorrow by the express wish of President Cleveland. The casket will be taken from the Arlington to the "White at 9 and will be placed in Jie large east room, where funeral services will be held at 10 o'clock.

lie yond this no arrangements for the burial have been made. President and Mrs. Cleveland were in the Gresham apartments for half an hour. When they came out a knot of people had gathered on the opposite sidewalk for a glimpse of them, having apparently recognized the Presidential carriage in waiting. There was in the centre of the group a photographer's camera on a lrijxd focussed upon the crrriage.

No sooner the Presi- dent and his wife scaled than the pho- 1 tographcr put hia head under the How the Two Drifted Afut- The rivalry between Judge Greeham and General Harrison for leadership in the Republican party iu Indiana has long been an interesting topic with those fond of the personal featurei of politics. A great deal has been written on the subject, aud much of it re- maius undisputed, but there are well- iuformed men who assert that the story ia its full and connected scope has yet to be written. It was no ordinary struggle. It lasted for years, and it brought into play the resources of two as resolute and fearless men as over confronted each other on any kind of Held. General Harrison won, but Judge Greshaiu, transferring his residence to Illinois, continued to play a great part in alfairs, and dies while filling one of the most important posts iu the government.

THE INDIANA SEXATORSIHP. The first distinct advantage gained by General Harrison over bin rival occurred in when a United States Senator was to be chosen in Indiane to succeed Joseph E. McDonald. The Republicans had carried the legislature in their triumph of 18SO, party prospects were bright for a great lease of power there, and the demand was for the strongest possible party organization. Gen.

Harrison and Judge Gresham were easily at the head of the roll of the local leadership, and it was plain from the outset that the senftorship would go to one or the other of them. One was a practicing lawyer of very high reputation, and the other was the United States district judge for Indiana. Both lived at Indianapolis, and Gen, Harrison occasionally appeared in Judge Gresham court. But the two men were not on friendly terms, and their respective supporters divided on the question of their talents and deserts with much show of feeling. HARRISON WON.

The choice between them was, in one not an easy one to make. They na borne qualities in commen. Both were good lawyers, good Republicans, good men. Both were, personally and politically, brave and aggressive. Both had won praise and promotion on the battle field, and each was still the idol of the men who had served under him.

But when the whole matter had been canvassed, the party, by a good majority, decided for Gen. Harrison, and he was chosen Senator. There seemed to be much more in this election than the mere winning of a seat in the Senate. Indiana was then, next to New York, oftener in the calculations of the politicians than any other state in the Union. misdemeanor for which tho, man who a as the man who sells is i i 0 IJ I isl 1 The effect this legislation will watched with in- cioth, but his designs seemed to "from iu ollu Bl and if found to JC rpc for both the President salutary, the ami-treating law may be adopted every where.

Judge Gresham retired from political view, and was pursuing the even tenor of his judicial way.

There was no thought iu the state that he would again come to the front, unless in the line of the judical promotion, which his friends felt he long had richly deserved. made no wry faces over his defeat for the Senate. He continued to be a good Republican and to support the party policy. Then, upon the sudden, came the assassination of President Garfield, the succession of Gen. Arthur to the presidency, and tho complete change in the party calculations.

New possibilitses seemed to open up to many men, and especially to the newly installed chief magistrate. Hia success in the White House was as immediate as that of Gen. Harrison in the Senate. The country saw that he was a man of safety and conservatism and an Arthur boom for 1884 soon took shape. When the vacancy occurred in the Post Office Department, the Arthur people at once saw an opportunity Judge Gresham was their man.

He was not only worthy of the place bj reason of his capacities and persona' worth, but his appointment would attach his friends at home to the Arthur standard and help check the growth 01 Harrison sentiment for 1884. Gen. Arthur was struck with the suggestion, and especially when it was pointed out that the ticket might be made Arthur aud Gresham. Thi ollice was tendered to Judge Gresham and accepted, and the rest ie history The new Postmaster General made a most favorable impression on his chie and they worked well together. Bu in time it was developed that it was not Harrison but Blainc who needei watching and was to be antagonized and this upset the whole of the Arthu program.

It did not, however, diniin ish Gen. Arthur's interest "in Judg Gresham, whom he had learnec thoroughly to trust, and so when Judg Folger died Judge Gresham was tram ferred to the Treasury Department and remained there until he was ap pointed to the United States circui bench nt Chicago.

HOWARD COUNTY JAIL STORMED Poor Wretch Dragged to tke of ExeCBtioM Verdict of the Coroner'i Jury. ELLICOTT CITY, May 'enson, the young negro, who ruur- ered Daniel F. Shea, hag paid the penalty of his crime, not in accordance with the sentence of the court, but at je hands of a band of midnight ly cell's. At midnight the Ellicott City jail was broken into, the murderer taken ut, and before 1 o'clock hie dead body wung from a dogwood tree in Merick's lane. Lees than 20 men participated in the rnching.

Their faces were disguised. Varden Lilly is at Wheeling. His on-in-law, Robert H. Hollmn, was in harge of the jail. The lynchers bat- ered down a door and as Hollman ap- wared from his bed room he wag seared.

CORONER'S JUKY. Hensou's body, after being viewed by he coroner's jury, was cut down from he tree and taken to the jaii. whereat .0 o'clock the jury, with Gerhard Jutke as foreman, reassembled to fin sh its labors. After examining a num- er of witnesses, including the jail ifficials, a yerdict was rendered to this iffect: "Jacob Benson, was taken from he Howard county jail by a party of unknown men and then to the Patapsco road, and hanged to a tree by the neck.

We further find he died of strangnla- ion." State's Attorney Joseph D. McGuire, who was present at the inquest, said hat the lynching was a matter to be deplored and that every effort will be made on the part of the State's officers bring the guilty parties to justice, 3e said that the numerous visits of the hysicians recently sent by Governor Jrown to investigate the prisoner's mental condition no doubt prompted the summary course taken last night as it war feared that the death sen ience would be commuted.

M. P. Moller has just returned home from Spartamsburg, S. C. where he placed.a large organ in Converse College, costing TOCO.

The Spartinsburg Daily Herald de- icribes it as follows: There can be no doubt as to the Value of the investment to one who ias been so fortunate as to sit for a moment within its compass. Its tones are as sweet and melodious as It is in appearance grand. No powers of description can meet such an emergency, for never before in Spartanbnrg was heard such melody as filled the Converse c'napel yesterday afternoon when After the final strokes were made Dr. Petsrs gave touch to the notes. It was evident that a master of music had control of a masterful instrument.

Mr. M. P. Moller, of Hagerstown, who is the most noted manufac- urer in the United States, built the organ, superintending all the delicate points in person and personally at tending the erection in the college. Being the largest organ in the South and the finest in use by any college in the United States, Mr.

Moller was determined to sustain his reputation, and well has it been done. In tone, compass and finish, it is all that cou'd be asked. Some idea of the magnificence of this instrument may be gathered From the fact that it has a frontage of 41 feet, filling one side of the spa cious chapel. It is twenty feet high and some of the pipes are as large as a man's body. Many months were required to con struct this organ according to the peciflcations made by Dr.
