DEATH ro.N"Qi:i:i:s THK VKTKUAX. NKW YOKK, Feb. 10.—General Sherman died at 1:50 p. 111., Saturday after a brave struggle for life. The improvement in his condition Friday, which filled his many friends with-hope that he would win tins battle, gave way to alarming' symptoms which caused the attending- physicians to announce that the end was rapidly approaching'. The members of his family were hastily summoned to his bedside and remained with him to the end.

The General was unconscious for some time before death. lie did not suffer any pain. His respirations grew weaker and ceased entirely at 1:50. The end eatne so easily that for a moment it was not possible to realize that he was dead.

The watchers beside the bedside of the dying hero refused to give up every thread of hope until the last moment. The famous patient had rallied so many times since he was taken ill that his friends believed he would again keep death at bay. Even when his head -ank perceptibly to the right side and tl -re was no respiration for fully a minute, at 12:85, the physician, Dr. Alexander, turned to Senator John Sherman and said: "lie is not dead he will breathe again." And the relatives and friends about the couch drew a breath of relief. The doctor's

GENERAL. SHERMAN1.

prophecy was correct, for the great warrior moved uneasily in less than a minute and he made a move as if to lift his eyelids, but for the first time his strength had deserted him, and after a feeble effort he sank wearily back upon the pillow.

Dr. Alexander made two or three attempts to revive him, but did not succeed, and although he did not communicate his belief to the members of the family he expected the end and waited for it to occur every moment.

He was unconscious all this time and had been since 6:20 o'clock in the morning, when he looked at his brother, the Senator, and his children, and addressing the former, said: "There, there, John, it's pretty hard: comfort the children." These words, so far as known, were his last.

At 1 o'click there was a movement on the part of the dying warrior, as he lay on his camp-bed in the center of the large apartment where he has been confined since last Sunday, and a noise came from his lijjs as if he was trying to speak. The physician bent over him, but the noise had stopped, lie said it was the mucus on the lungs, and when it was heard a few moments later the doctor said, with his head on the grand old soldier's breast: "The end is not far off."

For nearly half an hour there was no movement on the part of the dying man. About 1:45, about five minutes before the end. there was just the suggestion of a movement of tlu» General's arm and a moan came from his lips. The sound was like that of a man attempting to speak, but changed to a low gurgling noise. The physician in the room reached over and watched the patient's face closely for a moment. Then he turned to the weeping relatives clustered about the couch and said quietly: "The General is dead.'

At the bedside were his son, P. T. Sherman, his daughters, Rachel and Lizzie, Lieutenant and Mrs. Fitch, Lieutenant and rs. Tliackara, Senator John Sherman, Dr. Alexander and General Thomas Ewing. The two daughters remained kneeling, one at each side of the bed. during the last hours of the life of their father. No priest or clergyman was preseut, neither were any called. No priest lias entered the house since Father Taylor called.

The General did not suffer any pain for the last two days. All night long he lay in bed with his head high, but toward morning he worked his head lower, until at last he lay perfectly flat. Death came so quietly that those at the bedside did not realize that the General was dead until Dr. Alexander said: "All is over." Death came with one long sigh. Suffocation, due to the lungs filling with mucus, was the cause*

Immediately after his death Generals Howard and Sloeum, who were on General Sherman's staff, were sent for. Some two weeks ago the General made known his wishes as to his burial. He particularly requested that his body should not lie in state anywhere. He also requested that the funeral be a strictly military one. lie said that he did not care particularly for any military observances here in New York, but that he did want a military burial in St. Louis, which would be participated in by his old comrades in arms. He also requested that the funeral rites be not in conformity with any particular form of religion. He wanted a soldier's burial. The body is now lying embalmed in the room where the General died—the back room on the second floor. The features are natural, with the exception of a slight swelling

Till: I'ltKSIUKNT INFOIIMS COXOl'.KSS. W ASHINGTON. Feb. 10.—The news of I General Sherman's death reached Washington in the form of a private dispatch to the President from Senator Sherman, which contained th* simple words: "General Sherman passed away at 1:40 p. m."

The President sent the following message to Congress: "To TIIKSKNATK AND HOUSK OF UF.PHKSKNTATIVHS: The ili utU of Wiliinm Teeumseh Sherman, which tuoU pl.uv tu ilay at his residence in the city of X.• \v York 1 :r0 o'clock p. m.. Is an event that will brim sorrow to the heart of every patriotic cit.z n. No living American was so loved and venerated as he. To look upon his fact, to hear his name, was to have one's love of country intensilled. Ho served his country, not for fame, not out of a sense of professional duty, but lor love of the flag and of the brm.-tlcenl civil institutions of vjhich it was the emblem, lie was an ideal soldier anil miared to the fullest the esprit

de corps of the army, but lie cherished tha civil institutions organized under the constitution and was only a soldier that these might be perpetuated in undiminished usefulness and honor. He was in nothing an imitator. A profound student of military science and precedent, ho drew from them principles and suggestions and so adapted them to novel conditions that his campaigns will continue to ba the jirolitable study of the military profession throughout the world, lli genial nature mado h.ni comrade to every soldier of the great Union army. No presence was so welcome and inspiring at the camp-fire or commandery as his. His career was complete his honors were full. Me had received from the Government the highest rani known to our military establishment and from the people unstinted gratitude and love. No word of mine can adil to his fame. "His death has followed in startling quickness that of ihe Admiral of the Navy, and it is a sad and notable incident that when the department under which he served shall have put on the usual emblems of mourning, four of the eight Executive Departments will be simultaneously draped in black, and one other has but to day removed the crape from its walls. ''HKN.I'AMIN HARRISON."

When the message from the President announcing the death of General Sherman was laid before the Senate Senator Ilawley (Conn.) rose and offered resolutions reciting the profound sorrow of the Senate at the announcement, and renewing that body's acknowledgment of the inestimable services which he rendered to his country in the day of its extreme peril, lamenting the great loss which the country lias sustained and deeply sympathizing with his family in its bereavement. The resolutions were adoped unanimously, and the presiding officer was requested to appoint a committee of five Senators to attend the funeral of General Sherman. The names of the committee were not announced. Before the resolutions were adopted, however, eulogistic addresses were made by Senators Morgan (Ala.), Manderson (Neb.), Davis (Minn.) and Evarts (N. Y.).

BlOOItAPHY OF A IIEKO,

William Tecumseh Sherman was born In Lancaster. O., February 8. 1SJ0. He was the sixth child, and was adopted by Thomas Ewing. and attended school in Lancaster until 1838, when he entered the Military Academy at West Point, graduating from that institution in lsj-j, standing sixth In a class of forty-two members. He received his first commission as a Second-Lieutenant in the Third Artillery July i. lfUO, and was sent with that commandto Florida. On November 30, 18-11. lie was promoted to a First-Lieu-tenancy. In 1S-1S. on his return from a short leave, he began the study of law, not to mnke it a profession, but to render himself a more intelligent soldier. In 1840, when the Mexican war broke out, he was sent with troops to California, where he acted as Adjutant-General to General Stephen W. Kearney. On his return, in 1S.VJ, he was married to Ellen Boyle Ewing at Washington, her father, his old friend, tlu being Secretary of the Interior. He was appointed a Captain in tho commissary department September 21, 1850, but resigned in liS3 and was appointed manager of -u bank in San Francisco, but subsequently took up his residence in New York as agent for a St. Louis lirm. In lf\8-.V. he practiced law in Leavenworth, Kan., and the following year became superintendent of the Louisiana State Military Academy. It was while he was acting in this connection that Louisiana seceded from the Uivon, and General Sherman prompt! ,' iv.-,..3'ned his oflice. On May 13, 1W51, he commissioned Colonel of the Thirteenth l:::amry, with instructions to report to Genjrat Scott at Washington. Sherman was put in command of a brigade in Tyler's Division. On August 3, lStil, he was made a Brigadier-General of volunteers, and was sent to be second in command to General Anderson, in Kentucky. On account of broken health, General Anderson was relieved from tho command, and General Sherman succeeded him on October 17. Just after the capture of Forts Henry and Donelson, in ISrW, General Sherman was assigned to the Army of the Tennessee. In the great battle of Shiloh, Sherman's division served as a sort of pivot. He was wounded in tho hand duriDg tho light, but refused to leave the Held. General Ilalleck declared that "Sherman saved the fortunes of the day on tho 6th, and contributed largely to the glorious victory of the 7th." General Sherman was always conspicuous for judgment and dash. He was made a Major-General next, and on July 15 ho was ordered to Memphis. On account of brilliant services in the Vicksburg campaign ho was appointed a UriKadier-General. On October 14, 18ti.'l. General Sherman was ordered to take his corps to the relief of General Itosecrans, who had b.en forced back into Chatta nooga after the battle of Cliicuamauga. On the morning of the 2."th Sherman pursued the enemy by the roads north of Cliickamauga and everywhere destroyed the rebel communications. During these operations General liurnsidc was besieged at lvnoxviile. Sherman made forced marches to his relief, and, after supplying him. marched hack to Chattanooga. After General Grant had beon made Lieu-tenant-General he assigned General Sherman to the command of the military division of the Mississippi. On February

General Sherman received the thanks of Congress for his services in the Chattanooga campaign. On April 10 he received his orders to move against Atlanta. His forces then consisted of '.KWXKl men. with 2"1 guns, whilo the Confederate army, tinder Johnston, was composed of fiii.CXXJ men. Sherman repeatedly attacked the enemy, who gradually fell back. On July 17 Sherman began the direct attack on Atlanta. In a number of severe sorties theU'iion forces were victorious, and on September 1 the enemy evacuated the place. Sherman immediately moved forward to the works that covered Savannah, and soon captured that city. His army had marched 300 miles in twenty-four days through tho heart of Georgia and had achieved a splendid victory. Sherman was mado a MajorGeneral and received tho thanks of Congress for his triumphal march. Sherman left Savannah in February, and soon flanked Charleston, compelled its evacuation, and entered Columbus on the 17th. Ho thonce moved on Goldsboro, opening a communication by the Cape Fear river •with Schofleld. Johnston, at Greensboro, received news of Lee's surrender, and sent word to Sherman asking on what terms he would receive his surrender. Sherman made a basis of agreement which was repudiated by tho Government as being too lenient. The General determined not to revisit Washington, but finally did so at the special request of the President. General Sherman took leave of his annyon May 30. From June 87, 1864, to March 3. 1809, he was in command of the military division of the Mississippi. Upon tho appointment of Grant as General of -irmy Sherman was promoted to be Lieu'. Gen

eral, and when Grant became President of the United Slates. Mar.-'.: 4, !StW, Sherman succeeded him as General, with headquarters at Washington. A! hi* own request, and in order to make Sheridan tieneral ia-Chi-f he was placed on the retired list, with full pay and emoluments, on February S, ISS4. For awhile after that the General resided in St. Louis, but some years ago moved to New York, where he became great favorite. There was hardly a night that lie did not attend some dinner, entertainment or theater party, and he became well known as

eloquent. after-dinner speaker.

The General lived very quietly with his family at his house in Sevcnty-llrst street, near Central Park.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 14. Admiral Davi(J D. Porter, who has been in failing health for some time, died suddenly on Friday at his residence in this city. Dr.

Wales, the physician attending Admiral Porter, was hastily summoned to his bedside, but the Admiral was dead before he arrived. All of the members of the

DA^ r. POKTKH. A ni ly were at home at the time of his death. Word was at once sent to the President and the Secretary of the. Navy and the flags on the White House and on all other public buildings were placed at half-mast. Secretary Tracy at once visited the family and conferred with them in regard to the funeral arrangements. It was settled that the funeral should be marked with the highest military honors and that the interment should be at the Arlington National Cemetery. The President was informed of Admiral Porter's death by an orderly, and sent a feeling message of sympathy to the family, lie subsequently sent a message to Congress notifying that body of the death. 1 lie iuneral will take place Tuesday at 2 p. m. The Navy Department will be closed, the Hag will be displayed at half-mast at all navy yards and stations and on board all ships in commission, and seventeen minute guns will be fired at noon from each navy yard. The department will be draped in black and all officers of the navy and marine corps will wear the badge of mourning for thirty days.

The honorary pall-bearers will be: Vice-President .Morton, General Seliofield. Senators Munder.son, McPlierson and Ilawley, Representative Uoutelle, Rear Admirals Rogers. Almy, Ilowells, Crosby and Stevens, and Governor Pattison, of Pennsylvania.

The death of Admiral Porter has been so long expected that it caused little excitement. The Admiral has for several mouths been practically dead to the world. He 1ms not left his room since he entered it in October, on his return from his summer home at Newport. His death finally came from the result of a combination of causes, not the least of which was his advanced age.

The Admiral's death will result in no naval changes. Though nominally on the "active list," he has been in practical retirement for a great many years. In fact, he could not be retired except at his own requer* and that request the vanity unu ambition which have ever been the Admiral's strongest character's1 would never permit him to make. long ago determined to die at the head of the navy in name if he were not so in fact. Jiy his death the rank of Admiral ceases to exist.

David llixon Porter was born In Chester,Del., June 8, 1S13, and after studying in Columbian college. Washington, accompanied his rather in the John Adams to suppress piracy In tho West Indies. Subsequently ho served in the Mexican navy and in 18L9 entered the United Stales navy as midshipman. His promotion was rapid until he became commander. When the civil war broke out lie had charge ot the steam frigate Powhatan, which was dispatched to join tho gulf-blockading squadron at Pcnsacola. Then, in lStil, ho was placed In command of tho mortar licet which assisted Admiral Farragut in bombarding Forts Jackson and St. Philip below New Orleans. He also assisted in the operations at Vicksburg, though the navy did not take a conspicuous part in tho capture of that oity. In 1808 he acted as rear-admiral of the Mississippi squadron, and in January of the following year helped General Sherman to capture Arkansas Post. In I SO I he had command of tho ileet, that bombarded Fort Fisher, nnd in 1805 took part in the future of tho samo fort. In the course of the war Porter was four times voted tilt thanks of Congress. After tho rebellion he, was made Vice-Admiral and served as superintendent of the naval academy until 1800, being then detailed for duty in the Navy Department at Washington. Ho was appointed Admiral of the navy in 1870.J

Monday ght the committee of tl whole council met at 7 o'clock and from that time on until 9:30 o'clock the olectric light question was thoroughly disoussed pro and eon. At length Councilman Scott moved that the committee draw up specifications for a plant to be owned by the city and advortibo for bids for the putting in of tae sume. At this point Messrs. Elmore and Walter arose and withdrew the latter tapping his head and crying out in a tragic voice as he glided through tho door: "I can't figure with you at all, but common sense tells me that the oity should not own a plant." Mr. Evans remained aud voted for the motion when it was put, stating that he was willing and anxious to

be done by the oity in this direction and when the matter was finally determined would be governed by what he judged to be best. Messrs.

A committee consisting of Scott, Jones and Evans, and at their request, the Mayor, was then appointed to draw up specifications aud advertise for bids.

This action is probably tho most sensible that could be taken as the receiving of bids does not cost the oity anything and in no wise compromises it. If a satisfactory bid cannot be obtained tho whole lot can bo thrown into the fire and other tactics be adopted. The specifications will be made at once and it will not be long before we know exactly what can bo done.
