HE HAD Jl'BT CONCLVDEO SPEECH. He Had Been Speaking Before The New York Board of Trade and Dropped Unconscious Into His cnalr-Tne House and Ben- ate Adjourn. , New York, Jan. 20. Just as Secrcta- ey Windom concluded a speech at the board of trade dinner lnrt night, he grew deaoly pale, his eyes Wiut and opened pasmodically, and he fell on his chair, thence slipped to the floor, where he lay unconsctous. The most intense excite ment immediately ensued. Judge Arnoux, Ex-Secretary Bayard and Capt. Snow were the first of the several who ran to Mr. Windom's aid. They found him apparently unconscious, They carried him into an ante-room, where several physicians proceeded at once to his as- sitance. They found that he was dead, now HE DIED. The gentlemen who wert near the sec retary when he fell generally concede that life left the body as soon as it top pled off the chair. Secretary Tracy's first action was to feel for his colleague's pulse, but he could find none and he whispered sadly in the ear of ex-Iudge Arnoux that Mr. Windotrl was dead Examination of the body made early this morning by Prof. Schilts and deputy coroner W. T. Jenks, confirmed the belief that death was instantaneous and was caused by a valvular disease of the heart When the inquest wus finished the body was placed in a casket, the body being idden from view with the exception ol the face, which showed plainly beneath the glass cover. The features exhibited no signs of puin and the secretary looked as though he had sunk into a calm and peaceful sleep. The body of Secretary Windom will be taken from thiscity by a special train over the Central railroad of New crsey which will leave the foot of Liberty street at 11:30 o'clock. The train is due to ar rive in Washington at 4:;t() p. m. Up to half past 10 o'clock the business of the stib-treasurv and custom house proceeded as usual. 'If. But the heads of dc- . partments were ex' i'yr liectinir tn hpflr i-.z:::.r t r " from Waslnnuton """-' every moment or dering the suspension of business. HALF MASTED FLAGS. Mags were at half mast on nil the federal, municipal and public buildings out of respect to the illustrious dead. On Fifth avenue, Madison unci Lexing ton as well as in adjoining streets many draped flags were to be seen on private residences. Un uroadway and other bus iness streets flags were also at half mast. THE BODY IN NEW YORK A special meeting of the board of trade and transportation has been called for this afternoon, when appropriate resolu tions was be adopted. A sprcial command appointed last evening to escort the re mains to Washington assembled at 9:30 o'clock this morning in the station of the Central railroad and when the re mains of the secretary arrived they were carried from the Fifth Avenue hotel at hulf past ten o'clock this morning and conveyed in a hearse to the railroad depot at the loot of of Liberty street. Secretary Tracv, At torney-general Miller, ana L. M. Hend ley, private secretary of the dead states man, attended the remains to Washing ton, A committee consisting of captain Am brose Snow, James B. Tnlcott, cx-ludgc Arnoux, Seth Thomas, Darwin lames ond William H.

The House and Senate Adtourntt an a Mark of Respect. Washington, Jan. 30. Tie house Jour nal having been npproved Mr. McKinlcy offered a resolution stating that the house of representatives having heard with profound sorrow of thedcath of the Hon. William Windom, secretary of the treasury, a committee be appointed to attend the funeral of the late secretary and that the house adjourn. The resolution was adopted and the speaker appointed the following commit tee to attend the tuneral: Mckinley Mills, Dunnell, Ilolmnn, O'Neill of Penn sylvania, Forney, Vandcvcr, Blount and Snider. The house adjourned. The senate met nt 11 o'clock. After prayer by the chaplain the Journal of yes terday was read and Mr. Monll rose and in a voice tremulous with emotion said "In consequence of the recent calamity which has visited us in thesudden decease of a former eminent member of this body and distinguished otticer oi tne govern ment, the secretary ot the treasury. move that the senate do now adjourn.' The motion was agreed to, and the senate adjourned till to-morrow at 11 a. m. The President is very deeply grieved over the loss ol ins friend and tins morn ing gave instructions to inform callers that he would see no one on business to day. As soon ai the president was informed at a reception last night of the death ot Mr. Winburn he nnvatclv inform ed Mrs. Colgate of Windom's death and she without exciting the susui cion of Mrs. Windom and her dnughters, succecuca in getting incm to ineir car- nngc andhome. The president, Secretary Proctor and Postmaster General Wana mnker entered the carriage and followed directly after. When Mrs. Windom and her two daughters reached the house, Mrs. Colgate gently broke the dreadful news to the bereaved widow and her daughters. Mrs. Windom was com pletely overcome and had to be assisted to her chamber. The shock was terrible, 46 0 as when the secretary left Washington this morning he seemed in the best of health and spirits. Win. Windom was born in Belmont county, Ohio, May 10, 1827. He re ceived an academic education, studied law at Mt. Vernon, Ohio, and was ad mitted to the bar in 1850. In 1855 he removed to Minnesota and soon after wards he was chosen tn congress from that state as a republican, serving from lsosto J.SBU. In 1870 he was appointed to the Uni ted States senate to fill the unexpired term of Daniel S. Norton, deceased, and he was subsequently chosen for the term that ended in 1877. He was re-elected for the one that closed in 1883, and re igned it in 1881 to enter the cabinet ol President Garfield as secretary of the treasury, but retired on the accession of President Arthur in the same year, and was elected by the Minnesota legislature to serve the remainder of his term in the senate. He was appointed secretary of the treasury by President Harrison and has since served in that capacity. He left Washington apparently in good health to attend the banquet of the board of trade and transportation at New York to make an address outlining the policy of the government. THE LYCEUM. An Essay on "The Poets of South Carolina." At the meeting of the Lyceum last night J. W. Starncs presided, President Malone being absent. The subject for iscussion was, "The Poets of South Car olina," and Col. L. M. Hatch read an essay on the snbjcct. The essay was a well prepared one, showing the power ot poetry to express tne choicest thoughts and truths in the most pleasant and im pressive manner. lol. natch took up tne list ot writers of verse according to dates, and began with the names ot a number wuo wrote about the close of the eighteenth century, and closed with Grayson, giving extracts from his poems. Col. Hatch sclosing lecture on the houth aiolina poets will contain sketch's of Wm. Gilmorc Sims, the Timrods, Paul H. Haync and others, and will be pub lished in the Lyceum. At the close of -Col. Hatch s essay re marks were made by Messrs. Cushmun, Ward, Gaines and others.

The subject for the meeting two weeks hence is: "Should the people of Ashcville be taxed to secure and sustain schools owned and controlled by individuals or orporations other than those under the control of the city government?" Capt. Natt Atkinson will make the opening au- ress. "A THOROUGH MASTER." A Flattering Crltlciatn of Mr. Win. H. Sherwood, the Pianist. The Atlanta Constitution of January 28th has the following to say of Wm. H. Sherwood who appears at the Grand opera house here February 3 : A splendid audience greeted Professor William H. Sherwood, the famous Chi cago pianist. He prelaced his program with a short talk on the musical theme and a description of how the genius of the composer expressed in the musical composition the various moods, passions and changes ot the human mind. The filth number, the loiut production of Paganini, the greatest of all violinists, and Liszt, the foremost nincteeth centu ry maestro, aroused the greatest enthu siasm. It is entitled "La Campanella," and from beginning to end is a combina tion of the most difficult passages of mu sic. This rendition opened the door to the hearts ot the audience, and from that time on they wetc the most attentive and sympathetic of listeners. rrolcssor Sherwood is a thorough master of the noble instrument, with a touch of velvet and a command of the keys possessed by but few pianists of the present day."
