Weyler.
The war bulletins issued at the Palace
to-day were unimportant. They only re-
ported skirmishes i'm which the losses on
either side were triiing. Rebels to-day

GEN. FI1'Z LEE HERE.
HE ARRIVED LAST NIGHT Ann
WILL SPEND A FEW DAYS.
REFUSES TO DISCUSS POLIYIC-
The President Has Not Yet Wrft-
ten His Message to Congress on ths
cuban Question-The Consul wsu
sail for Cuba In About Ten Dayx.

"All roads lead 10 Richmond" said Gene.
raj Fitzhugh Lee cheerily. as he climbed
down from the train which arrived al
the Chesapeake and Ohio's Broad-street
station at 7:i5 o'clock iast night.
The General was looking robust and
healthy, and was greeted with efYusion
by few friends who were coenizant OF
his movements and were at the depot to
meet him
To the representatives, or the press who
were on hand. General Lee said that the
reason he had taken the devious route
from Washington was that he had gone
round by Charlottesville to take his two
daughters to school
Postmaster Cullingworth was one OF
the first 10 grasp General Lee by the
hand upon his arrival. The warmth OF
his greeting is not to be gainsaid but
his joy seemed slightly tinged with dis
appointment, which is 10 be accounted
for by the fact that the rumors OF tho
Consul-Generars indisposition had reach
ed his ear and induced the belief that
his rival in avoirdupOis had fallen be-
hind in the race TO magnitude. Happily,
the reports were entirely unfounded, and
General Lee who says that he has suf-
fered much annoyance az the hands Of
reporters, who have sacrificed accuracy
TO originality, declares that thu state
ment that his health was indifferent. or
even In jeopardy. is absolutely untrue.
and his personal appearance bears him
out.
General Lee Will spend two or three
days in Richmond. He Will visit and re-
ceive old friends. but declares that poli-
ties will enter into none OF ais discussions.
For obvious reasons he cannot discuss tho
Cuban situation. President Cleveland, he
says. has not even written his message
10 Congress on this question yet. and It
probably Will not be written until the end
of this week. As far as Virginia pOli-
ties are concerned the General has no.
thing TO say. and when no was asked by
a representative OF a paper published in
this city whether he would run for tho
governorship Of the State Rt the next
election, he remarked with great humor:
Don't tell them that you saw me-" TO
| other questions Of a Ike nature the Con-
sul-General also replied pleasantly, but
evasively. 1t is evident that he has no
idea Of becoming involved in Virginia
politics at this time.
General Lee is stopping at what he Is
pleased TO call Thomas Jemersons Inn"
lie will go 10 Lynchburg after his stay in
this city. and viii visit his son at West
| Point on his way to New York, from
which port he Will sail in about ten days
/ TO take up his residence I'm Cuba again
| as the United States representative. The
! General received a number OF his friends
| at the jefferson last night, and will DO
| down town to-day TO shake hands with
] others.

Colonel Nunez had a hearing in this
