WASHINGTON. D. c.. March 1O.-The

message from Consul-General Lee at
HaDana announcing that the New York
correspondent. Sylvester Scovel. was re-
leased to-day. II was learned that the

John McSweeney, of Wooster. o.. his
attorney. came to Washington to solicit
the intervention Of the government in his
behalf. Secretary Olney declined to take
any steps I'm the matter. for the reason
that Scovel had once been expelled from
Cuba, and had returned to the island. in
violation Of his parole, under "A false name
and a false passport Mr.. Scovers rela-
uves sought the good Offices of the
Spanish Minister, who promised to use
his efforts TO secure Scovers release upon
certain conditions, which were:
First, that it should be regarded as a
personal and not a diplomatic matter, so
that IL might not be used as precedent
in the future; second. that the newspaper
agitation in regard to Scovers arrest
should be stopped and. third, that
Scoveis father should make an appeal
to the Government OF Spain for ScoveTs
release as an act of mercy, and not as
an act Of justice.
Mr.. Scovers relatives accepted these
conditions, and have done their best 10
carry them out. The Rev. Mr.. Scovel
who is president of the Wooster Universi-
ty sent very eloquent appeal on behalf
of his son, which NJ. Dupuy de Lone, the
Spanish Minister, endorsed. with a recon-
mendation for the young mans immediate
release without trial and forwarded 70
the Spanish authorities There has been
considerable correspondence on the sub
ject between Madrid. Habana, and the
Spanish legation in Washington, but the
Intervention of the Department of State
