PRESIDENTIAL SUCCESSION.
Circumstances Thnt Aro Said to Hnvo
Kept Cleveland from Henricks's
Funcrnl.
From the SU Louis Globe-Democrat.
Behind the Jaw of presidential suc
cession.!? a curious chapter of unwrit
ten history. It was told today by a
Mlssourfan, who has been for many
years a trusted official of tho United
States senate. It explains fully an in
cident, almost forgotten now, but onco
the cause of much criticism of Presi
dent Cleveland.
Until ten years ago the law was that
the president pro tempore of the senate
succeeded to tho presidential office in
th'e event of the death or incapacity
of both president and vice president.
In the absence of a president pro tem
pore, tho succession devolved upon the
speaker. But either of these officers
only acted as president until congress
could bo convened on twenty days' no
tice and a special election could be
held.
Early in the first term of Mr. Cleve
land Vice President Hendricks died at
his home in Indianapolis. A situation
which was without precedent existed.
Up to the tlmo of his sickness Mr. Hen
dricks had prevented the senate from
electing a president pro tempore. He
had been able to do this by declining
to vacate tho chair and to recognlzo
that privilege. The senate was Repub
lican by a narrow majority. The vice
president, having some political advan
tage in mind by so doing, steadfastly
refused to let the Republicans organ
ize. When he died there was no presi
dent pro tempore. The death occurred
between the dissolution of one congress
nnd the regular session of the next con
gress. There was no speaker. At tho
white house President Cleveland was
completing his preparations to go to
Indianapolis to attend the funeral. Sen
ate r Edmunds was at the capltol, busy
In his committee room. The sugges
tion came to his mind: What would
happen If the president should "be killed
or be rendered unfit for duty by an
accident on this contemplated Journey
to Indianapolis?
"Senator Edmunds," said tho Mis
pourlan, "was much disturbed. The
more ho thought of th'e pecullur possi
bilities the graver the situation seemed
to him. He asked me to find some oth
er senators and send them to him. Only
two wero about the capltol. They were
soon closeted with MY. Edmunds. He
told them his opinion of the situation.
Ho said that if anything should happen
to Mr. Cleveland tho country would be
without a head. There would be no one
with even tho temporary authority to
call an extraordinary session of con

any step. No special ejection could be
ordered. Thero would bo no relief from
the confusion until the regular dato for
tho assembling of congress came
around in December. Until the senate
chose a president pro tempore and tlw
house elected a speaker, nobody could
perform any of tho duties of president.
"Tho Jaw then relating to presidential
succession was laid beforo the other
senators. Tho anomalous condition
had not occurred to them. They agreed
at onco that Senator Edmunds wns
right. When ho suggested that under
the circumstances tho president ought
to be especially careful they approved
th'o suggestion. As the result of tho
conference Senator Edmunds camo-out
and asked mo to get a carrlago for him.
Ho rodo direct to the white houso and
told Mr. Cleveland ho must not go to
Indianapolis. He went over the ground
showing tho president that if an acci
dent happened to him tho country
would bo left without an executive for
months, until December came. Tho
president was astonished. Ho had not
had tho slightest realization of how
much depended on his life nt that time.
H acknowledged the force of Senator
Edmund's argument, immediately can
celled tho orders for transportation and
remained In Washington."
Thero wns much criticism over tho
failure of Mr. Cleveland to be present
nt the Hendricks obsequies. Tho news
papers couldn't understand the appar
ent lack of consideration. The presi
dent raid nothing. This Is tho first
time the circumstances of th'o senatorial
conference and of Senator Edmund'a
hurried visit to tho white house have
been told.
As soon as congress convened after
Mr. Hendrlck's death Senator Edmunds
fathered and pushed to enactment a bill
which made impossible tho repetition of
such a crisis. Tho law of succession
now is such that a vacancy in tho of
flco of president of ths United Stat.3
is beyond all probability. If the presi
dent dies the vice president takes tho
office and holds it to the end of tho
term. If both tho president and .tho
vice president die, the secretary of stato
succeeds. Succession falls In turn upon
the members of the cabinet, Including
the secretary of agriculture.
