Especial to the Evening start

PRINCETON, June 1.-The condition
of former President Grover Cleveland
today, following his trip from Lake
wood yesterday, was so satisfactory as
to lead his friends to believe that he
would quickly regain sufficient strength
to make the trip to Tamworth, N. H.,
his summer home, where Mrs. Cleve-
land tool the children last Friday, re-
turning 'hurriediy, to be in Lakewood
when her distinguished husband was
taken home.
DR.. Lockwood is remaining at the
Cleveland home, and Mrs. Cleveland
will be here for a few days yet, any
way. 1t is known that Mr.. Cleveland
is anxious to get to New Hampshire.
The stories emanating from Lake
wood that Mr.. Cleveland was suffering
from cancer are denied positively.
While his physicians will make no
statement, his friends insist that his
ailment has been acute indigestion,
coupled with rheumatic govt.
Mr.. Cleveland surprised the residents
of Lakewood by walking downstairs,
nOaSSlSIeQ, except lOI d StpuI SoAiS,
and chatting pleasantly with those
whom he met. In the corridor he
thanked the hotel attaches, who had
remained with him after the place
closed. and on the porch he met many
of the townspeople, who heard that he
was about to depart and who had come
to see him. He shook hands with sew
eral and talked pleasantly, saying he
was feeling fine and hat he expected
soon to be as good as he e was.
The 6O-horsepower machine of John
HAYS Hammond was waiting for the
ex-President, and with Mrs. Cleveland
he got into the machine. They were
accompanied by DR.. Bryant, a nurse,

IT took three hours to make the run

seemed none the worse for the trip.
He was able to leave the motor I'M
