MR. CLEVELAND'S QUIET DAY.

Tourists and sportsmen -- Field sports - LodgesWeather -- Northeast storms

THE STORM PREVENTS HIM FROM ENGAGING IN SHOOTING.

EXMORE, Va., Nov. 29. -- A cold northeast gale this morning swept over the Broadwater, which gives its name to the inlet dividing Hog Island from the mainland, effectually cutting off any communication between President-elect Cleveland and his friends ashore, and making shooting an impossibility.

After breakfast Mr. Cleveland turned his attention to his mail, which is daily increasing in volume. This had been brought to him in a sailboat.

It is now said that the President-elect will abandon his proposed visit to Thomas Upshur's estate at Brownsville, because of the publicity which has attended his movements, and he may prolong his stay at Hog Island with the hope that milder weather will afford him greater opportunity for sport.

Visitors arrived at the island this afternoon from Philadelphia. They were Mr. John E. Hanifen, a woolen manufacturer, with John A. Emerick and Michael Ehret, Jr. They came as guests of the Broadwater Club on the invitation of its President, Joseph L. Ferrell. Another party is expected to-morrow.
