rFrom a STAFF Correspondent

LAKEWOOD, April "a. - Grover
Cleveland is doing nicely at the Lake
wood Hotel, having recovered today
from the sinking spell he suffered last
night.
"Mr. Cleveland is an aged man." said
Manager Berry, of the hotel, but his
cesadition is not serious, so far as /
know. Mr.. Cleveland has his own
suite of rooms and VIC do not bother
him except to keep a sufficient corps
of servants to maintain the service
Mr.. Berry stated that Mr.. Cleveland
would possibly leave the Lakewood
Hotel i'm a few days.
Mrs. Cleveland today issued a
statement through Manager Berry to
the effect that the rumors of the serious
Illness of the eX-President were ground
less. and. she added, that she would
possibly issue a formal statement as to
his condition today. When seen later
Manager Berry refused to say any
thing further about Mr. Cleveland S
condition, except that DR. Bryant, fam
lily physician, had returned to New
York, and would come to Lakewood
every two days.

in England a few days ago and hur-
ried hither to welcome Nine. Gould.
He rushed to Mime. GOuId's cabin, met
her at the door, lifted his hat and kissed
her hand.
The prince was much annoyed by the
presence of reporters, and he refused to
be interviewed or make any statement.
The tutor of Nine. Goulds children,
however, i'm brief interview, said:
"Tlest assured that the marriage will
take place. but nobody can say when or

Madame Gould was smiling and appa-
rently contented. After the prince had
kissed her hand she took him to the
salon reserved for women. They mad
vertently left the door open and the re-
porters gathered outside. When the
prince perceived this he angrily
slammed the door in their faces. The
conversation between De Sagan and
Nine. Gould lasted half an hour.
Nine. Gould then took the prince ia
her cabin. where he met the children.
He kissed them repeatedly. Nine. Gould
introduced to the prince the detective
who stood at her door keeping a sharp
eye on the reporters and said that the
presence of this man was a comfort 10

} Personally, | know nothing of the
affair of yesterday, but I will know
within the next twenty-four hours who
was at fault. I owe this to the league,
to myself, to the baseball public and to
the umpire.
II have ordered Kelly and Sullivan To
umpire today's game at Newark, and
have informed Mr.. Stallings that if Sui
livan is prevented from acting in his
official capacity today the game will be
forfeited
Mr. Stallings will not be allowed on
the players field until his case has been
decided. I'm sorry to do this, but it's
the only recourse 1 have. If umpires
are not protected in Newark will re-
fuse to assign any to that city.
The order of suspension was issued
shortly before noon.
Stallings has not yet been officially
notified. Trouble is expected when to-
days game begins, as Sullivan may at
tempt to order the Newark manager off
the field.
The fight between Stallings and I'M
pire Sullivan occurred while the 5000
fans were on their way home from
yesterday afternoons game. A brisk
but bloodless battle was then being
enacted under the grandstand at Vie
denmayer's Park.
During the game several decisions
handed by Sullivan were not to the
liking of the local manager, who had
good ground to find fault, Sullivan. for
getting his dignified position and while
at the home plate, turned to
the players bench and mixed it up
with Stallings in wordy war, instead
of ordering Stallings from the bench,
as he had right to do.
AS the game proceeded Sullivan's
judgment did not become any better
on balls and strikes. and Stallings's
temper grew none the softer
When the game was over Stallings
and Sullivan met under the grand
stand, and the manager pointed out
several mistakes which he said were
detrimental to the game in this city.
Sullivan retorted by accusing stall
irgs of wanting the best of it. Words
and it is said sullivan used
language, which Stalings
answered by bang in the eye.
Sullivan had his mask in his hands
and swung at the manager, but play
ers and bystanders interfered and the
row was over.
Sullivan Immediately reported the oe-
eurrenee to President Powers.

Deed Committed Within Ten
Minutes of DOOrman's Two
Trips to Prisoners Quarters.

Arrested for intoxication, Josephine
James. 81 years old, of Boston, Mass,
hanged herself with strip of her skirt
in a cell at the First Precinct police
station today She was found dead
when the doorman went to bring the
prisoners into court.
Not more than ten minutes could
have elapsed between the time she
hanged herself and the time she was
found. Detective Sergeants Fohs and
Quinn, accompanied by Doorman Nett
man, went into the prison at 9:40 a. m.
to get one of the men prisoners. At
that time, Neitman declares, the wom-
an was sitting on the bench. AT $50
he went back again to bring the prison
ers out and found her dangling against
the door.
She had torn the hem and about six
inches of cloth from the bottom ef her
skirt and tied 1t in a loose knot around
her neck. The other end she fastened
to the grating over the door. The dis
rance to the ground was so short that
when she was found her knees were
bent under her. When cut down she
still showed signs of life, but only for
few moments.
. According to DIR. Clark. the woman,
even with her feet on the floor, could
not have saved herself without out
side aid The weight of her body had
drawn the cloth so tightly about her
reck that she could not 'lave loosened

as contemplated by the committee in

Personally / am in favor Of a seawall,

my opinion, the first steps to be taken
in the building of seawall, is the es-
tablishment Of grades on Bond, Com

SO as to conform with the line Of the
proposed structure. As matter OF
fact, before any attempt can success
fully be made to build the seawall,
the grades Of the streets must be
raised. Any engineer familiar with
construction work will endorse this
proposition. The grades will have to
be raised at least five feet on the
streets named, in order to secure an
easy grade and access to hill lots. The
establishing and raising Of the grades
will not cost much, but when raised,
every building and business block on

RHlNELANDER, Wis. Sept 2l
--Gagen and Woodboro were destroy
ed BY forest fires yesterday,
The fire started in the woods yes
terday morning and quickly reached
Gagen and Woodboro. Men, women
and children fought valiantly 10 save
their homes but without avail,
Gagen and Woodboro each had
about 1000 residents and nearly all
are homeless,
Burned out OF their homes, the peo-
pie fled from the fire which grew more
dangerous with each minute, Won
en- carrying children in their arms
and men and boys with packs on their
backs ran toward Rhinelander Many
falling PROSTATE in the heat, only TO
be helped on by the stronger reiu-
gees.
Nearly all OF those burned out at
Gagan reached Rhinciander last
night and are cared for, But few Of
the Woodboro people are here and
is not known what has become of all
OF them
The IRE is fresh one and not a
continuation OF the FIRE which did
so much damage last week.
When the blaze started the wind
was from the west, and it was feared
that Rhinelander with its homes for
1000 persons was doomed also, but
change in the direction OF the wind
probably saved the city
The towns OF Gagen and Wood
boro are on the 500 Railway Reports
from the refugees who came to this
city say nothing is left OF Gagen.
Many citizens have decided to ask
Gov. Davidson to order out the state
militia to assist in fighting the flames
which, because of the dry condition
OF the woods threatens to destroy the
forests.
1t is feared the wind may again
shift and the mayor and chief OF po-
lice believe the danger to Rhinelander
is not yet over
Hundreds Of men have gone out
from this city to fight the flames but
reports received from the scene say
they have made but little progress
against the fire.
