GEN. LEES RETURN.
He Will Probably Take Part fu tbe
Political Campaign i'm yfrcinia.

T"it1cal Campaign in VIRGINIA.
1t is learned that Consul General Lee is
arranging his official affairs in Havana so
as to permit him TO make a visit to his
native state, where there seems to he a de-
r'and for his presence in the near future
The business of the consulate is i'm good
shape. and arrangements have been made
to place Vice Consul General Springer in
charge during the absence of General Lee.
The latter has not yet obtained leave of
absence. but II is expected that THAI formal
ity will be arranged in a few DAYS
There are various con- lectures as to the
particular purpose of General Lees visit to
the United States just at this junciure but
the ole which receives the most credence
is that IL relates to the political situation in
Virginia, with view 10 his possible nom-
ination to Congress from the sixth district.
The news from that district, whose CEN
tral point is Lynchburs, where General Lee
was collector of internal revenue, is that
there is n disposition for a coalition beiy;, en-
the republicans and gold democrats by
which the republicans will withdraw and
give the gold democrat a free field against
the silver man.
1t is stated that General Lee Is i'm no re-
spect dissatisfied with his office or with the
relations that now exist between himself
and the authorities at Havana, but he has
healthful season at Havana while engaged
In the discharge of onerous duties. and
feels the need of recuperation. His return
to Washington will afford opportunity
for Secretary Olney to confer with General
Lee as to the present aspect of affairs on
the island, but further than above stated, IL
cannot be gathered that the consul gener-

IN KENTUCKY.
Letters From Busfness Men as to the
Political Situation.

Letters From Business Men as to the
Political Situation.
, Mr. H. d. Walbridge writes to The Even
ing Star. inclosing two letters received by
him from business men relative to the
political situation in Kentucky:
Mr.. d. J. Burchett, who was United
States marshal under President Harrison,
and a candidate for lieutenant governor
last fall. writes as follows:
'sYour letter received, and will say that
If there is no change in matters in Ken
lucky Major Mckinley will get the state
by a good majority. We are all confident
of this
Mr. ]. A. Northrup. a prominent gold
iemocr at. writes:
Your favor of the 10th instant received.
Senator Lindsay is of the opinion that the
state will go for Mckinley, and 1 have
been inclined to that opinion for some time.
However, our people are fanatics on the
subject of free silver. On last Sunday
morning my neighbor, T. H. Vaughan
found in his hens nest an egg-a duck egg
that had on 1t in yellowish cast inscrip-
ticn: w. B., 1885, Free Silver, 16-2-1,'
and good men, in discussing it, said God
only tell how it was put there. With such
views what can one think? The egg was
evidently intended for me. but my hen
house is under lock and key"
Mr.. Walbridge himself adds: las the
democratic party is now in the throes of
political bankruptcy, and as there appears
an earnest attempt on the part OF the old
and discreet democratic leaders to save
fl ON the wreck some Of its ancient planks,
to wit, respect for the federal Supreme
Court, sound money. federal authority over
mob law, national and individual integrity
let me suggest that the wfsest and most
effective action would be for these gentle
nen and their followers to vote for Nc
Kinley and Hobart who now stand for and
represent the essential tenets of what they
now claim Is pure and unadulterated de-
mocracy."

THE PRESS AGENT STORY DENIED,
But Another Story Comes Concerning
Mr.. Bryan and the Stage.

But Another Story Comes COncerning
Mr. Bryan and the Stage.
Vigorous denial has been made of the
report that Candidate William Jennings
Bryan, prior to his nomination at Chicago
applied for a position as press agent of a
theatrical troupe. dispatch from Xenia
Ohio, says:
William ]. Bryen's attention was callei
to several newspaper reports. One that he
had been upon the stage: another stating
he had thought about going on the stage,
and still another that he had written
criticism Of a play, and had applied for
position as press agent. He said that there
was no truth In the report. that he had
never been upon the stage, had never writ
ten a criticism Of any production and
never applied for any position In connec-
t1on with any theatrical company, and had
never had any thought of going on the
stage. nor had he ever discussed the matter
with any one. He said at the time he was
reported as contemplating the stage he was
writing editorials in favor Of free silver
and delivering lectures upon the subject
throughout the country. He looked on the
matter with considerable amusement"
A special dispatch from Cleveland to the
Philadelphia Times says:
duncan b. Harrison, the theatrical man.
ager, is here today. and in an interview
said that William Jennings Bryan had
trod the boards in 1Ss4-S5 with Ada Gray's
company, and had been an Indifferent actor
at that. Harrison said he well remembered
seeing representation OF East Lynne
in Topeka, In which one William b. Jen-
nings figured.
He then said: have just reached Cleve-
land from Michigan. While in that state
saw William Jennings Bryan, and at once
l thought had seen that face on the stage
I racked my memory and suddenly recalled
that while in Topeka. Kan, in March,
1857, I attended a performance where 1
saw Ada Gray's company in East Lynne
and the leading man had the same face as
Bryan. More than that, his every move
ment was the same as that of the Francis
Levison in East Lynne 1 saw at Topeka.
I was satisfied that Bryan was the Jen-
nings of the Ada Gray company during the
season of 1SS4-'S5, but said nothing about
it until had talked about the matter with
several other theatrical men, and by them
my own suspicious were confirmed

Not Enough for Two,

From Harper's Rotnd Table.
Patrick was the captain Of brick schoon-
er that piled between New York and Haver-
straw on the Hudson! One day his schoon-
er was loaded, ready to start for New York.
But Patrick never gave the word to the
crew to cast OFF the hawsers and get under
way. Instead, he sat lazily swinging his
leg over the spoSkes IT the wheel, smoking
his pipe.
The owner OF lthei brick yard, who was
also the owner of the schooner, seeing that
the vessel had not started and wishing to
have the load landed in New York as soon
as possible, rushed down to the dock and
irately demanded of Patrick why he did not
get under way.
'Shure, yer honor, there's no wind
