GEN. LEE ISSAYING NOTHING
Keeps Discreetly Silent on Matters
Relating TO Cuba.
He Does Not Expect the War to End
Very SOon-IIad an Interview
With Secretary Olney.

Consul General Fitzhugh Ice, who ar
rived In Washington last night. was eagerly
sought by friends and newspaper men as
soon rs his wherea bouts became known.
He shook hands cordially. lie said 1t did
him good to get back among familiar
scenes and faces for awhile.
All agreed that Gen. Lee has. never
looked better, and that hIs cuban sUJourn
has done him "A great deal OF good To
all questions bearing on the status OF
the war IN Cuba the general only smiled
and maintained a discreet silence
You see,' he said, lit would not do
for me 10 give anything for publication until
i have bad consultation with my su-
pericrs.'
He did say. however, that he does not
expect the war to end very soon. Cuban
industries. he says, are in a state " de-
plorablc prostratiOn. 1t Will take the island
very many years to recover from the de-
vastatlon which this war has caused, no
matter which party is victorious.
Gen. Lee said rega riding his conduct in
Cuba that he has invariably taken a strictly
middle -of-the-road course. He has been
scrupulously neutral, favoring neither the
one side nor the other, but attending so far
rs he was able to the duties of his office,
i. e., the protection Of America ms and Ameri-
can interests in Cuba.
This, he said, kept him busy, as there are
many naturaliZeG Americans on the island
from whom he received numerous complaints
of cruelty and damage to property To
these complaints he always paid as much
attention as was possible.
There was no truth whatever, he said
in the report that he had come into coils
ion with the Spanish authorities. Both
parties had treated him with uniform
courtesy, and had done much to help him
i'll the performance OF his duties.
Consul General Fitzhugh Lee called at
the State Department this morning after
Secretary Olney had gune to the Cabinet
meeting, and sa " Assistant Secretary Il ock-
hill, who has direct charge of the consular
service, and therefore, is the consul

After paying his respects to the President
the general expects to go to his Virginia

After his business in this country has
been Strengthened up Gen. Lee expects to
return to Cuba. The general, it is un-
derStood, has expressed Il wish that Mrs
Lee may accompany him on his return
to the island, but whether she will do S oor

Dyuamiter Is Released.

London, Nov. 6.-Edward j. Ivory, alias
Edward Bell, the alleged lrish-American
dynamlter, was again aTfagned for ex-
animation in the Bow street police court

inmate. Dynamite, he said. was not now
"A recognized explosive for warlike pur-
poses, but he would not say whether or not
such an agent might not be employed IN
Cuba.
Detective Flood, who arrested Ivory in
Glasgow, was called To the stand, and said
he was sure that the prisoner. after his ar
rest, had said nothing about astonishing
the world by explosions in Cuba. As IA
matter OF fact, Ivory had made no ref
erence whatever to Cuba.
Police Inspector Walsh took the stand
and said thai he had recognized as lyman
a man calling himself Ga,th. AT The Hotel
Angiais in Antwerp, and communications
were found In possession OF lyman signed
by Ivory under the IA me Of Belle. The pris-
OEer was further remanded.
