With the President.
Washington, Nov. 15.-Prcsident Cleve-
land, accompanied by Secretary Lamont
took the Il: 80 express train over the
Pennsylvania railroad for New York last
night, No inkling had been allowed to
escape of his intentions or destination
and therefore knowledge of his departure
was gained only from people who recog-
nized him at the depot. Private Secre-
tary Thurber refused absolutely to make
any statement whatever about the Presi-
dents movements, and only admitted
that he had left town after he had been
informed that President Cleveland had
been seen to board the train at the Penn
sylvania station last night.
HIS SECRETARY MUM.
Later in the day Secretary Thurber
was requested to make some definite
statement in view of the rumors preva-
lent throughout Washington that the
President had left town to undergo
another operation, but Mr.. Thurber de
clined to say anything further than that
The only true statement is that the
President has gone away on jaunt and
will be back tomorrow"
Secretary Herbert said the rumor that
another operation was to be performed
was all nonsense. IF anything like that
was going on" he added, II would have
known it."
AT NEW YORK.
Dispatches from New York say that
the President and Secretary Lamont ar
rived at the Hotel Victoria early this
morning. An hour after breakfast the
pair took carriage and drove off, leav-
ing no word as TO their destination.

be obtained up to this writing as to the

lecture
A New York dispatch says: ''There
were no callers at the hotel for the Presi-
dent during his mornings stay. He left

y

him"

| ply to the next query, if the President
was here on account Of his health, and
| for the purpose of undergoing another op-
GRAFTON for the removal Of diseased mouth

"'I will say this and no more said the
doctor with considerable vehemence:

not even criminal"
