I can't resist adding to Martin's comment. It's one of about 120 photos 
taken during the first leg of Twain's "round-the-world" tour, part of the 
large James Pond--Mark Twain archive that I've built (reconstructed) over 
the years. The copyright to those photos is jointly owned by me and Elmira 
College, and permission to use any of them should be directed to Nathaniel 
Ball at Elmira College. He then runs it past me, and I want to make clear 
that we are pretty free and easy about allowing their use, and no fees are 
charged. But please ask permission! In the meantime, I encourage anyone to 
take a look at the 1992 Elmira College publication, OVERLAND WITH MARK 
TWAIN, (I see used copies for sale online at bookfinder.com for $45 to $60) 
where all but one or two of the photos are reproduced. Fun stuff.

Subject: Re: Picture of Twain in bed interview during tour with Cable

A large-format book of photos from the 1895 tour, including photos taken in
the northwest U.S. as well as Canada, was published a few years ago by the
Center for Mark Twain Studies.  I believe this book, which may still be
available from the Center, includes the photo of Twain with reporters.
Mr.and Mrs. Pond accompanied Twain, Livy and Clara on the first leg of
their around-the-world tour.
