There was nothing alarming In his condition, it was be- lieved by the physicians, and the for— mer president passed a fairly good night, nothwlthstanding the oppres- sive heat. ‘Wheu Drs. Bryant and Lockwood visited their patient this morning they found him “lndisposed,” as one of them termed It. Dr. Cnrnochnn, who lives in Princeton, was asked to so over to the house. This was before 8 o'clock. Shortly after that hour Mr. Cleveland seemed to fall. The physi- cians recognized instantly the Hymn toms, and Immediately arrangements were made to combat the attack. With eVery resource at hand, the physicians worked ever their patient but finally he lapsed into unconscious ness, and the end came at 8: 45 o'clock As soon as the widow could recover herself, she summoned a servant and naked that Professor Andrew F. West. of Princeton University, a close, in- timate friend and neighbor, and Prof lohn D. Hibbiu. also of Princeton and a neighbor should be sent for. Tele- grams were prepared to Mrs. Perrinc and the children at Tamworth, and about a dozen other relatives over the country. Up to this time no one out- side of the Cleveland, West nnd Hib- bin families know what had occurred. Mrs. Cleveland requested Professor West to inform the Associated Press of the death of her husband, and n nlesscugcr was sent for to take the telegram to the telegraph office. In the meantime, the undertaker. John A. Blend, of Princeton, was sent for, and the first the other neighbors knew that their disllngulshcd neigh- bor had passed away was where the undertake“ wagon rattled rapidly down Bayard avenue to the Clcwlanti residence. Mr. Stead, as he stepped on the porch, hung the customary knot 0f crepe beside the door, and then en- tered the house. Mrs. Cleveland is proslrnlod, and on ly a few of the neighbors haste been ilIlII‘ to see her. When the nearby friends heard of the ex-presldent's denth, many of them hurried to West land to render whatever assistance ihvy could, but Professors West and lilbbins had matters well In hand. It Is expected that arrangements for the funeral will be made this at tot-noon. Among the telegrams sent by Mrs. Cleveland to relatives and friends was one to President Reese volt, and one to Secretary of War Taft. The death of Mr. Cleveland came as a terrible shock to the people of Princeton, who were proud of their fellow citizen. They always had a warm spot for both the six-President and Mrs. Cleveland because they se- lected Prirlceto as their ho c after they left the W ite House. ‘ a death to them was not in the least expect. ed, and many at first refused to be- lieve the sad news. Flags all over Princeton are at half- staff. There seems to have been an etfort on the part of the physicians to keep the seriousness of the ex-president's condition from the public. When Mrs. Cleveland was seen last night by a reporter for the Assoeiatod Press she chatted pleasantly. She manifested no anxiety about her husband's illness, and when the visit of the physicians was referred to as appearing signin- cunt she said there was no occasion for alarm. Mrs. Cleveland either did not know the seriousness of the form- er presldent‘s condition or did not de- sire to tell. Dre. Lockwood and Bryant came here at 4:24 p. m., yesterday. Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland celebrated the 22nd an- niversary of their wedding here on June a. The affair was very quiet be- cause of Mr. Cleveland’s illness. The funeral of former President Grover Cleveland will be held on Fri- day June 26th, at Westland, Mr. Cleveland’s residence, on Bayard Lane, Princeton, and will be strictly private. GREENWICH, June 24. —-Mr. E. C. Benedict, who was one or Mr. Cleve- land's most intimate friends, said that the news was so sudden that he hard Iy had time enough to compose his thoughts to give expression of the loss he felt. Since word came to him of Mr. Cleveland's death messages has constantly peered In upon him from those who were well aware of his own close and delightful relations with the former president. OYSTER BAY, June 24. -Presldent Roosevelt has sent a message of con- dolence to Mrs. Cleveland on the death or her husband, and expressed his in tention of attending the funeral ser- vices of Mr. Cleveland it they take place on any other day than Satur- day. on which day he has an important conference to he held. have been wholly beyond him had it not been for his...

Ence Society of this city. and up to the time of his going to Lakewood had attended to correspondence in connec- tion with his duties for that society. After he went to Lakewood, how- ever, he discontinued that work, and It soon developed that Mr Cleveland was suffering from an attack of diges- tive trouble, which he had experienced many times before. Mr. Cleveland was attended by Dr Joseph D. Bryant, of this city, and Dr George R Lockwood, a specialist In lung disorders, was called into conv sultatlon. Dr. Bryant made frequent visit to the distinguished patient at Lakewood. Mr. Cleveland occupied a suite of rooms at the Lakewood hotel, where he received constant medical attendance. The fact that Mr. Cleve- Innd remained at the hotel after It had been closed to all others, and that for many weeks no attempts was made to take the former president. to his home in Princeton, only a short distance away, early made It evident that Mr. Cleveland's condition was re- garded as very serious. Early in May a report became cur- rent which was said to have come from one of the olilcers of the Equit- able Life Assurance Companies, that Mr. Cleveland was suffering from can- cer of the stomach. This was promptly denied by Mr. Parker, the secretary of the trustees of the Equitable Society, who after- ward acted for Mrs Cleveland In is- suing statements of the condition of the former president. Mr. Parker said that Mr. Cleveland was suffering from one of his periodi- cal attacks of stomach trouble, and that was all. Mr. Cleveland remained at Lake- wood for several Weeks thereafter. and constant reports of improvement in his condition were Issued from the ho- tel. About a month ago he had suf- clcully recovered to be taken to his home In Princeton, making the jour~ ncy In an automobile. Yesterday it was reported again flint Dr. Bryant had been called to M . Cleveland‘s home In Princeton. l+uirios made us to the reason for th s visit brought re-assuring answers and it was not publicly known until the announcement of his death today, lhut Mr. Cleveland's Illness had again assumed a critical phase. The news of his death, therefore. came with great linexpdcicdness lo the public, and. it is hellved. to many or the friends and admirers of the ex president. WASHINGTON, June 24 .-—Unoftlclul notification of the death of fomicr President Clewland was flushed im- mediately to Oyster Bay for the Infor- mation of President Roosevelt. The White House received its first news of the death from the Associated Press. Secretary Cortelyou, who is the sen- ior cabinet oflicer in Washington at present, Is now the acting bend of the administration. The first word that came to Score tary Corterou from Oyster Bay was an Instruction, which the secretary at once promulgated to all executive de- partments, to place their national flags at half-staff. It Is probable that they will thus re. main for a period of thirty days. NEW HAVEN, June 24.—Secretnry Taft was greatly shocked when he was Informed of the death oi Former Pres Ident Grover Cleveland. He was in the commencement procession on the march of the university officials, fac- ulty and student graduates to Woolsey Hall where the graduating examines took place when the news was con veyed to him by a representative of The Associated Press. “I am very sorry. indeed," said he, “to hear of Mr. Cleveland's death. He was one of the really great men or the country and his passing away is a dis tinct loss to the American people." Former Senator John C. Snooper, of Wisconsin. who received today the de- gree of Doctor of Law’s, also expressed his great regret at the death of Mr. Cleveland. Senator Spooner knew Mr. Cleveland intimately and entertained for him a high regard. The Information at the death of Mr. Cleveland also was conveyed to J. Plerpont Morgan, who today received the degree of Doctor of Laws, but he made no comment upon it. TAMWORTII, N.
