At the Mercy OF
Wind and Waves,

Halifax, n. s., April 23.-During the
heavy southeast gale on the Nova
Scotia coast on last Saturday night,
the oil tank steamer Lucerne lost her
prize, the big French steamer Breiz
Huel, that she was towing to this
port and the disabled liner is again
drifting about the Atlantic at the
mercy Of wind and waves.
Nothing has been heard of the steam
err since then and it is thought that
she must have been carried far out
of the track of shipping.
The West Indies steamers Soho and
Boston will be sent out from this port
to search for the French steamer.
1t is possible that the Plant Line
steamer Halifax from Key West. or
the steamer Oruro from the West
Indies both due at this port may fall
in with the disabled steamer.
A dispatch received here today stated
that the steamer Lucerne had arrived
there and reported losing her tow.

EXPIRES. Cleve-
land Again Ill.

Lakewood, N. j., April 23.-The con-
dition Of Former President Grover
Cleveland. about whom alarming re-
ports were circulated here today, was
said by Mrs. Cleveland tonight to be
improved. Mr.. Cleveland has been
suffering from rheumatic govt and
stomach trouble and is said to have
been reduced in weight considerably IN
consequence. With Mrs. Cleveland
and trained nurse, he came to Lake.
wood about March 16. and since then
has occupied suit Of rooms at the
Lakewood hotel where 1t was said he
was regaining his health and strength.
Since his arrival he has celebrated his
list birthday. In response to an in
curry Mrs. Cleveland sent out the fol-
lowing message:
"Mr. Cleveland is getting along nice
". There is no occasion for any alarm.
I may issue a statement to The Asso-
ciated Press tomorrow"
The hotel closed Tuesday but Mr.
Cleveland did not leave with the other
guests. This gave rise to report that
his condition was such that 1t was
deemed imprudent for him to make the
trip to Princeton. The report was Civ
en- further credence by the fact that
Mrs. Cleveland, who left here at IL
o'clock yesterday morning for Prince
ton, hurried back to Lakewood the
same afternoon and that the express
train which leaves Princeton Junction
a few minutes before o'clock stopped
to take her aboard. AS this train does
not stop at Princeton Junction without
special orders 1t was surmised that
Mrs, Cleveland received a call to hurry
back to her husband.
No one is admitted to see the former
President The big hotel among the
pines is locked and visitors are denied
admittance.
Most Of the servants have left and
the few remaining today were busily
engaged in packing up for the summer.
James M. Bryary, the manager, said
tonight that the hotel would continue
to house Mr.. Cleveland's party until
they find it convenient to leave.
Mr.. Cleveland is improving and will
return to Princeton probably within a
short time said Mr.. Bryary tonight.
He came to Lakewood about the mid
die of March and since that time has
been quietly recuperating.
