OWENBY WANTS TO KNOW About Traveling Expenses and Counsel— | Sec! The Committee's Reply. At the adjourned meeting of the silver-pool investigution cominittee this afternoon a tele- gram from Mr. Owenby was exhibited, in which a request was made for money for tray- | could cling expenses, and it was also inquired whether witness would be allowed to employ counsel at the expense of the government. It was stated by a member of the committee i : i REE el i i E | if PS | d_ some: Mf | what upon: whet, word ts deceived frost tne: tomorro' night. They only knew that the husband and father had received the summons from the dread messenger and that he had died, not in the midst of a ioving and ministering family, but away from them, alone really, although the center of a great throng of prominent men at the time death claimed him for his own. Still Mrs. Windom and her two daughters bore up remarkably well. There was nothing to be done. ~ At first it was thought best that Mrs. Windom Ce leave for New York, but this plan was quickly abandoned, and the President himeelf wrote the mesrage of reply, which was to the effect that Secretary Tracy and Attorney Gen- eral Miller, who were in New York at the ban- quet, should accompany the remains to this city on an early train. ‘iss Colegate and Miss Hatch, who are at the house, have proved to be towers of strength to the ved family and have been all that women can be to women in the hour of their need, supporting and cheering the widow and the orphans. It was a sad scene in that lonely household last night, though all that human love and pity could do was done. Late in the evening Secretaries Noble and Rusk called at the house to express their sym- pathy and to proffer their services if they were heeded in any way. ALL IN DOUBT THIS MORNING. This morning up to 10 o'clock there was little more known by the family in this city, and all was in doubt so far as the details of the death or of the sad duties that must yet be performed were concerned. Tele; that had at once been sent flying in all directions upon the receipt of the news of Secretary Windom's death were still unanswered. No farther word had been received from New York and no! was known oven as to the time the body wo' leave New York for this city. Mrs. Windom's brother-in-law in Minneapolis had been com- municated with, but no answer had been re- ceived from him up to that time, and, saddest of all, Secretary Windom's son, who is at prevent in the south, could not be reached. ‘THE SECRETARY'S SON. Young Mr. Windom has been afilicted with heart trouble and has been traveling in the south for the benefit of his health. It was thought that he was at Baton Rouge and tele- grams were at once sent to him there, but if he received them in time no answer has as yet come from him and it is more than likely that the first intimation he had of his father’s sud- den death was from the ern papers from New York this morning. Some fear is expressed that this sudden reception of unexpected sad news may have a dangerous ef- fect upon him in his present condition. ‘THE VICE PRESIDENT AXD MR. WANAMAKER Cans... Among the first of the callers at the Windom residence on Massachusetts avenue this morn- ing were the Vice President and Postmaster General Wanamaker. All the preliminary arrangements that could be made before the arrival of the funeral from New York were left in the hands of Mr. Wanamaker and he at once started off to do all that was in his power to do. DISTINGUISHED CALLERS. All day long the house was visited by num- bers of prominent officials and friends of the family, among them the President and Mrs. Dimmick, Assistant Secretary Spaulding, the Chiet qpumtice, Junice Lime ant iar. rr. . in last evening and was discussing the visit to New York with Mre. Windom ing of the Wth ber peech band, ‘was probably making at that time at the banquet in ork. This was buta few moments before the news reached there that the Secretary was dead. Late in the evening Dr. Hamlin went to the Windom house and stayed there some time with the distressed family, doing what he could to comfort them in their hour of trouble. Today Dr. Hamlin expressed himeclf as amazed at the courage and the fortitude with which Mrs, Windom and her daughters re- ceived the news of their afftiction. PRIVATE SECRETARY HENDLEY'S TELEGRAM. About 10 o'clock this mornings telegram was received from Mr. Charles Hendley, Mr. Windom’s private secretary, who was with him in New York and was sitting beside him at the banquet table when death overtook him. The telegram was to. the effect that the body of the Beer would leave New York for this city on a special train over the Baltimore Ohio railroad at 11:30 this peal al oy ‘une! retary , Attorney Gencral Miller and a, comunities of seven mens. bers of the New York Board of Trade, who will + and Mrs. John Douglass of Minneapoli ing that they would arrive in this city on day.

As he is the senior assistant secretary in point of service he will probably be ‘designated to act as, secretary gor period of ten days, the limit for which such ignation may be made. io business was transacted at the White House today. The President, who was visibly affected by the sad occurrence, denied hitse toallcallers. A little after noon, in company with Mra. Dimmick, he left the Executive Mansion in his closed carringe and drove out to make a visit of condolence to the stricken ere a th ttle t the other departments there was lit doing today and the talk of all was devoted to the death of the Secretary of the ‘Treasury. Mr. Windom was eminently popular and es- teemed among his fellow cabinet members and all united in their praise of the worth and ability of the dead man. All the secretaries who were in the city were among the callers at the house today. In each of the departments business was practically suspended. HIS HEART TROUBLE. Mr. Windom had realized for some time past that he had some heart trouble and all his friends insisted again and again that he was working too hard and that he must let up or there would be a break down. He often promised to take their advice, but the time never came and his working days were asarule prolonged far into the night. The late financial troubles added materially to his labors and responsibilitios and of late his friends had noticed that he seemed overworked. He looked like a tired man. Every afternoon at dusk he might be seen, walking as a rule, from the Treasury nt up to his handsome residence, 1422 Massachusetts avenue. His step was not as brisk and vigorous as it should have been. He was not ill, however, and his family were by no means alarmed about his condition nor probably ever though: it serious ad Ne and, as a result, the news of his sudden taking off was all the more a shock. of ion in his chest his bert, but beyond that known that he ever felt unwell or his health. taid that he intended to begin ractice les © afternoon Jor the mike of cearcly ant treeh air, but he delayed beginning until it was too late.

The following executive order was issued this afternoon: Derantaent oF State, ‘Wasurxorox, January 30, 1891. Sir: The Honorable William Windom, Secre- tary of the Treasury of the United States, died suddenly last night in the city of New York at the hour of eleven minutes past ten o'clock, in the sixty-fourth year of his age. ‘Thus has passed away a man of pure life, an official of et integrity, distinguished’ by long and eminent service in both branches of Congress and by being twice called to admin- Scie Gels bas ereed deep hiesdl tice th has cat roughout the country, while to the Pendent und choos associated with him in the administration of the government it comes as a personal sorrow. ‘The President directs that all the departments of the executive branch of the government and the officers subordinate thereto, shall manifest due respect to the memory of this eminent citi- zen in # manner consonant with the dignity of the office which he bas honored by his devotion to public duty. ‘Tr Procent farther directs that the Treas ury Department ranches cap- ital, be dra "ba soourning. for the ported ot day of the funeral the pulls buildings goat toe mul out ational tng coal be cir ‘The ie tors of steamboats.
