General Garcia's body has been lying in state in the apartments in which he died, under military gv and all day long there been a continual stream of promi- nent men, who have called to pay their pects to the dead soldier atives, to companions of the commission, d view the remains.

It is estimated that fully five hundred persons ealed during the forenoon. As a token of the respect in which Gen.

It will be for the general's ff and his family to decide whether or this invitation shall be accepted. In it is the Dolphin will be designated as sel to carry the remains.

The work in hand, they say, will continue without interruption, and the ideas and views held by General Garcia will be impressed on all that is done. While it is possible that an- other chairman may be chosep by the Cuban assembly, yet the commissioners say that is not essential, as those now here are thoroughly equipped to take up the work where their leader laid it down. President McKinley's Tribute. President McKinley was one of the first to send a letter of condolence. The note was directed to General Garcia’s son, and read as follows: - “I have heard, with deep regret, the melancholy news of General Garcia’s death. I beg to offer my heartfelt sympathy in your sorrow, and the tribute of my sincere admiration for his eminent qualities as a patriot and a sold: “The people of the United States will join | my country. This has been accomplished I will be at hand to see the last Spanish soldier leave for his home Physical Manhood. General Garcia, highly educated and cul- tured, was a perfect type of physical man- hood. Tall and erect, he stood over six fect. His hair and mustache are whitened and grizzied, showing in handsome relief against his dark complexion The members of the commission do not talk freely of the effect of General Garei: death on their mission. When the fune is over they will take up their work un- daunted, and follow the #ans out ined by the dead soldier. In an interview Colonel Sanguilly, one of the commissioners, said: “The news of the death of General Garcia will be received with the most profound sorrow and regret by all Cubans and friends of their cause. It will be regarded as a pubie calamity, not only so far as t work of the commission ts concerned, but with regard to the political future of the island as weil.

General Palma of the Cuban junta in New York is unable to come to Washing- ton. He gave out, however, the following statem , a tribute to Gen.
