WASHINGTON, Jan. 28.—At the bedside
of James G. Blaine when death’s angel
heard the statesman’s answer to the last
roll cell were those who were to him near-
est and dearest.

‘ Those present were Mrs. Blaine, Miss
Harriet Blaine, James G. Blaine, Jr.,
Mrs. Walter Damrosch, the eldest living
daughter, and Mrs. Blaine’s sister, Miss
Staysil Dodge, better known by her liter-
bry nom de plume, “Gail Hamitton.”
Robert Blaine, a brother of James G.
Blaine, was not present when death
came, not having been notified that a
crisis had occurred in time to arrive at
the house until all was over.

f Mrs. Blaine was almost completely
overcome by the shock occasioned by
her‘ husband’s death, and, notwithstand-
ing his long and serious illness, had been
led to believe that his life would be pro-
longed for some time. Mrs. Blaine said
that she wished to have no autopsy and
no embalment of her husband’s body,
and desired, moreover, that the funeral
should be a quiet and unostentatious one,
and take place as early as practicable.

Dr. Johnson said that he was perfectly
conscipus up to within a few moments of
his death, and recognized all those arOund
him, and that he died without suffering.

The doctors late in the day issued “an
official statement of the cause of death.
The earliest signs of disease. were due to
gout. Later came kidney troubles de-
veloping into chronic Bright’s disease.
Then came a lung complication followed
by heart trouble and a general shattering
of the system.

There will be no autopsy and the body
will not be embalmed, the family object-
ing to any disturbance of it.

- The President Hears the.News.

The Presideat received the news of Mr.
Blaine’s death soon after 11 o’clock, and
immediately notified the members of the
Cabinet by telegraph over the department
wires. A few minutes later he started for
the Blaine residence. The President re-
mained but a few minutes. He left a
message of sympathy for Mrs. Blaine,
saying that he could sincerely and thor-
oughly appreciate the great loss which
she had sustained.

The visit of the President and Secretary

A Foster was quickly followod by calls from

the Postmaster-General, Secretaries El-
kins, Noble, Tracy and Rusk, and Attor-
ney-General Miller, each of whom re-
mained only a few minutes and then
went to the White House,‘ where the
Cabinet assembled at 12.30. It remained
in session a few minutes only, during
which the following proclamation an-
nouncing the event was agreed upon and
issued:

.Great mental, agony is endured by
parents who see their children sufi'erin
from diseases caused by impure blood, an
for which there seems no cure. This is
turned to joy when Hood’s Sarsaparilla is
resorted to, for it expels the foul humors
from the blood, and restores the dis-

‘ eased skinto fresh, healthy brightness.

Read the following from grateful parents:
" To C. I. Hood & 00., Lowell, Mass:

“We think Hood’s Sarsaparilla is the most
valuable medicine on the market for blood and

skin diseases. Our two children suffered terri-
bly with the

for two years. We had three physicians in
that time, but neither of them succeeded in,
curing them or even in {fivinér them a little
relief. At last we tried 00 ’s Sarsaparilla
and in a month both children were per-
fectly cured. We recommend

ceremonies will be as unostentatlous as
possible, Mrs. Blaine having great re-
pugnance to an exhibition of grief. At

mourning for/ex-President Hayes will
not be supplemented by any sombre
decorations for the ear-Secretary.

Sorrow in “Washington.

Mr. Elaine’s death. has created a pro-
found sorrow in \Vashington, where he
has lived for nearly 30 years. ‘11113 {31.11.
dren were nearly all born" here; this was
the scene in his triumphs ‘bf political
diplomacy and statesmanship,\gnd Mr.
Blaine constantly expressed his hie for
Washington and his desire to be nried
here when his life should be ended. The
whole city is in mourning today. Go...
gross adjourned; distinguished men and\
women, including the President and his
Cabinet, hastened to the house to ex-
press their sorrow; telegrams of sympathy
poured in from all over the world, and
the fact that Blaine was dead was dis-
cussed to the'exclusion of all other topics.
The social festivities of the capital, now
at their height, have been suddenly
halted, andwill not be resumed until
after the remains of Mr. Blaine are laid
away forever.

of your distinguished husband.”

ACTION OF CONGRESS.

Both Houses Heard Tributes and Then
Adjourned.

Wasnmeron, Jan. 28.—The Senate met
yesterday in the gloom which the intelli-
gence of Mr. Blaine’s death an hour be-
fore noon naturally cast over that body
and over the Capitol. The sad event was
appropriately noted in the opening prayer
of Chaplain Butler. As soon as the read-
ing of the journal was completed Mr.
. Hale of Maine, one of Mr. Blalue’s closest
friends, rose and announced the death.
He said:

Mn. PRESIDENT: ‘Ve are again summoned
into the presence of death. very great man
has passed from this earth. he Hon. James
G. Blaine died in his house in this city at 11
o’clock this morning. His long illness had.

other great nations. He belonged, Mr. Presi-

Mr. Cockrell (Dem;, Mo.) moved that,
in View of the announcement by the
Senator from Maine, that the Senate do
now adjourn. The Vice-President put
the motion and at 12.20 declared the Son-
ate adjourned till today.

In the House, soon after the reading of
the Journal, Mr. Millikan of Maine rose
amid profound silence and said:

Mn. Srssxnn: It becomes my sad duty to
announce to this House the death of James
G. Blaine. Mr. Blaine was for >14 years a
prominent and leading member of this House.

Mr. Holman paid a glowing tribute and
the House adjourned.

NEW YORK COMMENTS.

Leading Papers of the Metropolis on the
Dead Statesman.

NEW YORK, Jan.28.——All the New York
papers have lengthly editorials on Mr
Blaine. Fellowin g are extracts: -

Tribune—Mr. Blaine, like Mr. Giado
stone, has had the incomparable gift of
inspiring enthusiasm. No other Ameri-
can since Lincoln has commanded in
equal measure the love, cOnfi’ience and
loyal devotion of a great political party.
Now that he has fallen, his enemies
themselves being the witnesses, a nation
will mourn him as the greatest American
of his generation.} .

Times—The death of Mr. Blaine will
bring genuine‘ sorrow to many admirers,
and to a smaller number of devoted per-
sonal friends, but as far as the great
party is concerned with which be was so
long and so conspicuously connected his
career was closed at Minneapolis in J uno
last. Admiration he could command; he
could arouse the-wildest enthusiasm; the
considered confidence of thoughtful men
he could not win, and, With all respect to
the feelings of those who, in widely sep-
arated parts of the land, will sincerely
mourn him, it must be written that it
was better for the American people that
he could not .win it, since, in sober truth,
he did not merit it. -

Herald—Mr. James G. Blaine had
sturdy friends and unrelenting enemies,
but friends and enemies alike agree that
be occupied a conspicuous position in the
constellation of American statesmen.
History will vindicate his right to that
most honorable distincapn, for it would

e events which
threw this nation into chaos in the earlier
Gillies, or to name the men who moulded
publib‘cpinion during the five years when
the coautry summoned a super-human
courage and rebuilt the Union on the
graves of a million heroes, or to review
the slow processes which, like a hot fire,
have since welded the States into a bar-
monious, whole, without referring to
James G. Blaine as one of the foremost in
the group ctgiants whoseWork isrecord-
ed in that strange chapter of our history.

World—Mr. Elaine possessed most of

 

the qualities of a great political leader.
He had an attractive personality, of the
kind called “magnetic.” He was a dash-
ing leader, adroit, audacious, resourceful.
But his lacks were fatal to the success.
which his ambition craved. Mr. Blaine
was wanting in some of the higher at-
tribut es of leadership. He compelled ad-
miration, but he did not inspire confi-
dence. Men applauded, but they did not
Ernst him. Many loved him. Few feared

FOREIGN PRESS COMMENT.

Opinions of.London Newspapers of hit.
Blaine's Powers.

LONDON, Jan. 28. —:~All the morning
dailies comment editorially upon Mr.
Biaine’s death. .

The Daily Chronicle—Few men have
played so many parts. Most of them he
played remarkably well. His manner
was charming, but we cannot rank him
with the great political, leaders of his
couritry. As a moral leader he cannot be
ranked with Lincoln or Sumner any more
than with Jefferson or Adams. _ He was a
brilliant specimen of the American poli-
tician. _ . _ '

The Standard—“die would be idle to pre-
tend that America is made any poorer by
the loss of her great statesman, He was
unquestionably a versatile politician, an
elegant speaker and aclever wire-puller,
and he might have been a powerful leader
if he had kept his record cleaner.

The Daily Telegraph—The impression
has long prevailed that Mr. Blaine was
animated by feelings of bitter hostility
to British interests in all parts of the
world. It is more probable that his
tirades against Englandfhad as motive
the desire to win Irish votes, but in his
character and policy there was so much
secretiveness that'it is diflipult to estimate
hislqualitiesan'd idiosyncrasies aright. He
was amaster of intrigue,‘a wire-puller
who well understood how to manipulate
machine politics. ‘ * That he was one
of the most powerful, subtle, far-seeing
political leaders (in the country where
management of the machine is high art
can be denied 'by none that came within
the sphere of his influence.

Blaine’s death got to t/ members.
When the news reached the Senate, Sen-
ator Cantor, the Democratic leader, said:

“Mr. President, .the’. news has just
reached here of the death of that eminent
and distinguished American statesman,
James .G. . Blaine. At this time I shall
refrain from ssyin'gLanything of his life

be 11de next week when an opportunity
willbe afforded to the members of the
Senate to express their admiration of the
services he has rendered to the public. I
desire simply at this time to submit the
following resolution:

Resolved, That if the Senate concur a joint
committee to consist of three Senators and
five members of the Assembly be appointed
by the respective, presiding officers of the

CANADIAN OPINION.

Kindly Expressions in .M‘ontreal—A Lib-
. e‘rnl Press Opinion. .
MONTREAL, Que, Jan. 28.—Mr. Blaine’s

death was one of the principal topics of

discussion here and on all hands kindly
expressions of Opinion were heard regard-
ing the great American statesman. Mr.

Blaine, it was known, always took a deep

interest in Canadian affairs, and Canadian

‘ public men who had anything to do with
him while he was at the head of the State

Department speak highly of his broad-’

mindedness and great ability.

The Witness says of his death: In a
country where statesmen take a sort of
pride in‘limiting their horizon so as to
exclude any views of foreign affairs, he
was among the two or thr‘ea whose inter-
est did extend beyond the jborders of
his own Country.

among the nations of the. world in inter-

‘WASHXNGTON, Jan. 28.—Mr. Blaine’s
death means a personal loss to a great

terial change in the social entertainments
of the capital. Women prominent in Sen-
ate and Cabinet circles said that all invi-
tations out for dates between now and the
time for Mr. Blaine’s funeral would be
recalled and engagements cancelled. In
all probability the. public receptions of
the wives of Cabinet officers will not be
msumed for the remainder of the season.

place in history long after many of our
Presidents will live only in name.”

Gov. McKinley Sends Sympathy.
