MISS Ruth CLEVELAND DEAD.
The Ex-President Loses His Old
est Child, Aged IL.

Princeton, N. j., Jan: Ruth
Cleveland, the eldest child Of Ex-Presi-
dent Grover Cleveland, died at the
Cleveland home today very unexpect-
edly, the immediate cause of death
being weakening of the heart action
during a mild attack Of diptheria.
DR.. Wycof, the attending physician,
said that Miss Cleveland had been Ill
with a mild form Of diptheria for
four days, and that the heart affection
was not anticipated.
The Cleveland household is grief
stricken over the death of the eldest
daughter, and many messages Of con-
dolence are being received. The pri-
vate school which Ruth attended has
been closed for the rest Of the week
out Of respect.
President John N. Finley, of She
College of the City Of New York, Mr..
Cleveland's personal friend, has come
here to make all arrangements for the
funeral. The intermens will take
place tomorrow. In response to many
inquiries former President Cleveland
gave out the following statement TO-
day; S.. ,., .,,,, -,,os
began with an attack Of tonsilitis and
developed yesterday suddenly in
diptheria, our eldest daughter, Ruth,
died today suddenly.''
Ruth Cleveland was born on October
1881, in her fathers residence, at
681 Madison avenue, New York, after
Mr.. Cleveland had served has first term
as President. She was named after
Mrs. Cleveland's grandmother, and as
"Baby Ruth" was a great favorite
in Washington society during her
fathers second term in the White
House. Mr.. and Mrs. Cleveland have
four remaining children.
It is now understood that it was
the child's illness that prevented Mr..
Cleveland's attendance at the dinner
to Mayor Mcclellan in New York on
January 4.
The funeral services will be held
at the Cleveland home, conducted by
the Rev. Maitland Bartlett. Mr.. Cleve-
land, with President Finley, Of the
College of the City of New York !:
Dean Andrew West, and few intimate
friends, will accompany the body to
Princeton Cemetery, whore interment
will take place. It is said the other
children show no signs Of diptheria.

fed with Russia's terms, but does not
feel warranted in issuing an ultimatum

scare rumor to the effect that COLI
sion between the Russian and the
japanese fleets has taken place near the
islands Of Taushima, in the Strait OF
Corea.
This rumor is not mentioned in any
other source, and, in view of the fact
that the Japanese Government is exer-

cerning naval matters, it may be safe
~ disregarded.

part of the garrison of Hong Kong, has
suddenly been warned to be in readi-

TO MORE JAPANESE WAR SHIPS.
Genoa, Jan. 8.-When it became
known that the Niasin and Kasaga, the
war ships built here for the Argentine
Republic and purchased by Japan
would depart tonight, there was great
excitement through the town and
crowds of people hocked to the harbor
to bid farewell to the ships.
The commanders of the Niasin and
Kasaga have received sealed orders,
which will be opened on the high sea.
At the last moment the departure OF
the war ships was delayed to await the
receipt of money from the japanese
legation at London, but it is expected
the vessels will sail early tomorrow

The GOvernOrship.

Willacoochee Sun: There are now
three announced candidates for Gov
ernor of Georgia in 1867. H. Estill,
of the Savannah News; Clark Howell,
of the Atlanta Constitution, and former
Attorney General Boykin Wright, of
Augusta.
The Sun is personally acquainted
with all three of the candidates and
recognize in them gentlemen of emf
nent ability, and fully qualified to I'LL
the position to which they aspire.
While the Sun does not irrevocably
choose it's candidate for the governor
ship thus early in the campaign, 1t does
not hesitate to say that the publishers
in If individual capacity, supported
John Holbrook Estill two years ago,
and nothing has yet transpired to
change their minds as to the superior
fitness of their candidate for the place.
The Sun is not disappointed with the
present administration. The state
needs now, as it did two years ago, a
thorough business administration. Be
lieving this, Candidate Estill looms up
in their minds as the man, par excel
lence, to place at the helm.

Statesboro Ga, Dec. 9.-The firm of
o. c. Parker & Son, during a fancy
retail grocery business here in one of
the store rooms of the Simmons block,
was closed yesterday by Sheriff Ken
drick on an attachment taken out by
A. Ehrlich & Bro. of Savannah. The
amount involved is about $500. Other
liabilities will probably reach $1,000,
with assets not known. The attach
ment is against the son, a single man,
and it is claimed that the business
passed into his hands some time ago
by private sale, which, if true, will ex
clude the possibility of the father TAX
ing a homestead exemption. o. G.
Parker is also proprietor of the Cen
trail Hotel, and has been in business
here for five or six months.
