GROVER CLEyELAND'S ILLNESS.
Believed He Is Fatally lll.--Popular
President With Great Many.

New York, May 1S, 19OS.-
While the reports from the sick
bed Of Grover Cleveland do not
indicate that the ex.president is
in q critical condition, yet there
ia a public feeling that his days
are numbered. Private advices,
or rather private indications,
warrant the conclusion that a
fatal malady has its tooth In him
and that he cannot long survive.
Mr.. Cleveland is about seventy
two; and has not been in good
health for some time. Those
who have seen him lately say
that he is reduced almost to a
skeleton and that he looks much
older than he really is.
= He Is the only ex.president
living and'is naturally a figure
whose condition Is watched with
anxiety. This is especially true
In the East, where he has been
able to maintain the popularity
he had during his first term
In the White House. In the West
he lost that popularity, but yet
there will bs an anxiety felt over
his condition actual or otherwise.
Mr.. Cleveland was one Of the
strong presidents OF the United
States, and 10 90 considered by o
large body Of Americans regard
less of any prejudice his actions
during his last term Of office may
have sown among the Western
wing Of his party. His message
to congress during the veneSuel.
an troubles with great Britain
gave him rank among the most
conspicuous Of the morally brave
presidents Of the United States,
and while II cannot be said that
no understood all the people Of
his country, no undoubtedly felt
that hs represented them fairly
well, and was carrying out th
