is quite probable that Gen. Lee will
not return to Havana. 1t will be re.
membered that when the new admin
istration came into power, Gen Lee
and other officials holding like posi-
tons rendered their designations.
There followed a great deal of
speculation as to who the sue
cessor of Gen. Lee would be and
several names were announced in
this connection. About this time the
disclosures concerning the condition
of Americans in Cuba became public,
and based on the reports of Gen. Lee
and other consular officers in Cuba,
President Mckinley sent message to
congress stating the destitute condi-
ton of the Americans in Cuba, and
congress Immediately appropriated
$4,000 for their relief. The publica-
ton Of these reports caused a great deal
of criticism of Gen. Lee in the Spanish
and Havana papers, and intimations
were made that Gen. Lee was to be
superseded because he was unsatis-
factory to the new administration. 1t
was also said that when these reports
reached Gen. Lee he informed the
state department that, while he was
anxious to be relieved, he did not
want TO retire under force. The course
pursued by the administration in not
naming his successor leaves no ground
for the intimation that there was
dissatisfaction with him officially.
Now there has been a period OF
comparative quiet in Havana, and
Gen. Lee has remained long enough

Illinois Baptist Association Takes Decided
Grounds Against 1t.
MOUNT VERNON, H., Sept. Z. The
Salem South Association Of Missional v
Baptists now holding its annual meet
ing in this city, went on record on the
doctrines Of modern holiness or sancti-
6cation people, who teach rule of
perfect religious living. The matter
arose upon a-query from one of
the churches OF the association,
asking whether it is proper for Bap-
fists TO give aid, financial or otherwise,
to ministers of the holiness faith. and
the association answered to the query
after discussion of it by saying that
Baptists shonld withhold aid from
ministers teaching the modern doctrine
OF holiness and voted that such OF
their members doing so shall be first
admonlshed to cease such aid, and
that after they have been thus admon.
ished, if they still persist in giving
aid, other measures shall be resorted
to, even to the extreme of expulsion.
The Baptists, in explaining the action
of the association, say they are not OPP
posed to the true Bible doctrine of
holiness, but they insist that the teach
ings of the modern holiness adherents
are not scriptural and should there
fore be discouraged.

MURDER MYSTERY IN MARYLAND.
WASHINGTON, Sept. IA boy hunt
ing in the woods near Laurel, Nd, 10
miles from Washington, found nude
human body. The coroner found that
the body was that of woman, in such
an advanced state of decomposition as
to make identification very difficult, if
not impossible. The head had been
completely severed from the body,
as had also the left hand
and left foot. The hand and
foot were missing, but the head lay a
short distance from the body. The
nails of the right hand seemed to have
been well cared for and indicated that
the woman had not been accustomed
to hard work. As far as learned, no
woman is missing in that locality and
the officers have no clues as to the
murderer.
