The galleries, too, were crowded. Senator Foraker said in his brief ewlogy: “He js mourned by all his countrymen—by his political associates not alone. because he was their great organizing leader, who repeatedly led them to victory, but also and more especially because he had gained their affections and reigned in their hearts as a favorite—by his political oppo- nents because they are chivalrous and generous enough to experience sorrow when a brave man falls, though he be of the opposition, and be- cause they recognized in him a bold and fearless foeman, who commanded their respect and excited their admiration, ‘For the present I content myself with offering the following resolutions, forrwhich I ask present consideration.” ‘The-resolutions follow: “Rebolved, That the Senate has heard with profound svr- row of the death of the Hon. Marcus A. Hanna, late United , States Senator from the State of Ohio. “Resolved, That a committee of twenty-five Senators, of whom the President Pro-Tempore shall be one, be appointed by the presiding officer to take order for superintending the tuneral of Mr. Hanna, which shall take place in the Senate Chamber at 12 o'clock on Wednesday, Feb. 17th instant, and that the Senate will attend the same. “Resolved, That as a further mark of respect, his remains * be removed from Washington to Cleveland, O., for burial in charge of the Sergeant-at-Arms, attended by the committee who shall have full power to carry these resolutions into effect; and that the necessary expenses in connection therewith -be paid out of the contingent fund of the Senate, “Resolved, That the Secretary communicate these proceed- ings to the House of Representatives and invite the House of Representatives to attend the funeral in the Senate Chamber and to appoint a committee to act with the committee from the Senate. “Resolved, That invitations be extended to the President of the United States and members of his Cabinet, to the Chief Justice and Associate Justices of the Supreme Court of the United States, the Diplomatic Corps (through the Secretary of State), the Admiral of the Navy and the Lieutenant-General * of the Army to attend the funeral in the Senate Chamber.” THE HOUSE RESOLUTIONS. Resolutions of a similar tone were passed by the House. ‘ Senator Hanna will be given a great public funeral on Wednesday. His body will rest in the Marble Room, adjoining the Senate Chamber, and there the people may pass and look their last of the face of the great Re- | 4 publican leader. At noon on Wednesday the casket will be taken into the Senate Cham- ber and placed immediately before the desk of the presiding officer. The members of the House of Representatives will then enter the chamber and the dean and members of the diplomatic corps will follow. Then will come the United States Supreme Court, the President of the United States and nis Cabinet, the Commissioners of the Disrict of Columbia, the Committee on Arrangements of the two houses, the family and the personai friends. ‘Tue chaplain of the Senate will offer prayer, and after President pro Tem, Frye announces the suspeision of the routine business of the Senate the tuneral services will be conducted by the pastor selected by Mr, Hanna's family. There may or may not be a choir, Mr. Allison, being the oldest member (in point of service) will move to adjourn. The Capitol police will act as pallbearers. MORGAN TO ATTEND FUNERAL, J. P.
