was brought to this city for treatment
but he steadily sank and died in the hos

stirred every pulse in Biloxi. and the rival
papers espoused opposite sides in the con-
test The last few issues Of the papers
have been Of n personal nature. and on
Saturday a communication published IN

Mir. Soule. a special edition Of Mr.. so1ie S

We shall doubtless be able 70 obtain
more exact knowledge as TO the nature
OF the information about Cuba which
Corsul-General Fitzhugh Lee communl-
Gated TO Mr.. Cleveland after the Con-
sul-General shall have appeared before
the Senate Committee on Foreign Rela-
lions. He will be able 10 speak more
freely then, and TO give full expression
TO such ideas about the Cuban war as he
may have formed during his stay at
Habana
We suppose he will be questioned IN
a very thorough manner by members OF
the committee, the chairman OF which
stands IN especial need OF correct in
formation. For a time Senator sherman
was counted among the friends Of Cuba,
but his friendship became less marked
after he had held q conference with Mr..
Cleveland In May last. We are not
aware that he has ever made public what
Mr.. Cleveland said TO him az that time;
and we doubt whether Mr.. Cleveland
then possessed any information about
Cuba beyond that i'm possession Of many
other people. General Lee, however. was
a careful observer OF affairs In Cuba,
and held communication with the com
manders Of both the Spanish and the
revolutionary armies.
The House Committee on Foreign Al
fairs. as well as the Senate Committee
on Foreign Relations. ought to be able
