Unfounded Reports Concerning Mrs.
Cleveland and baby Ruth the Cause.
lny Telegraph to the Evening JournaLl
BUzzARD's BAY. Mass. Aug 20 -lx-
President and Mrs. Cleveland are very
much annoyed by reports which have
been sent out from here regard
ing s. themselves. The story that
their little daughter was allowed TO
visit Onset Bay camp grounds where
thousands Of people had congregated,
unattended by either parent, was, Mr..
Cleveland says. entirely without founda-
tion. and the report of Mrs Cleveland's b
narrow escape at the depot yesterday
was entirely uncalled for.
While Mr.. and Mrs Cleveland pay
little attention TO such reports. they
are bosicgcd with letters from friends
an over the conntry who are anxious for
particulars. and It greatly anuoys them.
