ARRIVAL OF FITzHUeH LEE.
The Counsel General TO Havana ON His
Way To Washington.

New York, Sept. 9.-Consul General
Fftzhugh Lee, accompanied by his son.
Fitzhugh Lee, Jr., arrived from Havana
on board the Segurancia Wednesday.
The general said he had been suffering
from billiousness for some time past,
put he felt very much better after the
TRIP. When asked as to whether he
would return to Cuba or not, the general
shook his head and said: "I cannot
answer that, and 1 would rather not
talk on Cuban affairs until 1 make my
report in Washington" In speaking OF
the case of Evangelina Cossio Cisneros,
the general said: THE young woman
Is now confined in Casa Rechohidas. She
has never been tried and 1 do not think
that 1t was ever intended that she
should be banished. The stories Of her
iil-treatment are very much exagger-
ated and were IL not for the hubbub
which has been raised about her, the
girl would probably have been released
long ago. In fact, / was given to un-
derstand that her case was on the par
don list. She has comfortable quarters
and Is treated as well as possible under
the conditions. There Is a good deal

replied the general. "And there will
not be any Improvement until the war
is ended"
When will that be, general?"
To this last question General Lee re-
piled in Spanish, a free translation of
which is, that is too much for me:
cannot say"
General Lee and young Fitzhugh Lee.
Jr., will go to West Point to see his
other son, George M. who is at the mil
ltary academy there and they will then
leave for Washington. Among the 9th
er passengers on board were Robert L.
Oliver, United States consul at Merida.
Mex, and George w. Fishback of this
city. who was said to have been sent
to Havana on business for the United
States government. Mr. Fishback said
that his trip to Havana was purely or
private business. Mr. Fishback said
that there was great deal of suffering
all over Cuba and that the condition of
the people was even worse when ,he was
there last as secretary to Commissioner
Calhoun when the latter was investi-
eating the Ruiz case. He saw Miss Cis-
neros at the Casa Recohidase and he
said the reports regarding her treat
ment were grossly exaggerated and
that the young woman was fairly welh
treated and did not complain when he
was speaking to her.

indianapolis, Sept. 9.-Owing to the
report sent out from Elwood, Ind, sew
eral days ago to the effect that the ne.
gro residents of that town had been
notified that they must leave town

to Mayor Finch of Elwood, asking for

of every citizen of the state without

cases the people are quite poor and a
great hardship is imposed on them. The
greatest alarm comes from the fact that
people from all over the south live at
Ocean Springs in the summer and have
been going home for the past three
weeks, frightened by the epidemic pre-
vailing there. 1t is feared that the tar
diness in pronouncing the disease what

the germs with them and that the dis
ease may break out anywhere.

Its Attractions and Advantages as a
 Place of Residence in Winter.

WhiteIaw Reid. owner and editor of the New York Tribune, who has spent the last two wInters in Arizona for the benefit of his health, writes entertainingly and in structively concerning that part of the country. Mir. Reid says:
 So many questions are asked about Ari- zona as place for winter residence, and there appears to be such dearth of pre- else information among many who are vitaIly interested, that it seems almost a public duty, to set down, in the simplest form, a few facts of personal observation.
 WEATHER.
 During 8 five months residence in one day when the weather made it actually unpleasant for me to take exercise in the open air at some time or ether during the day. Of course there were a good many days which a weather observer would de- scribe as "cloudy," and some that were "showery; but during these five months (from No' ember, 1895, to May, lS96,) there were only four days when we did not have brilliant sunshine at some time dur ing the day. Even more than Egypt, any where north of Luxor, Arizona is the laud of sunshine. As to details:

MINES.

There is no section of the United States, or probably of the earth, more rich in min eral wealth than the County of Yuma. All the country north, east and south of Yuma lies directly within the main gold belt that commences in Alaska and ends in Mexico. From the San R"rnardino mountains in California to the Sonora boundary line the mountains and hills are exceptionally rich in the precious metal, as though demonstrating the theory often advanced that the richest gold mines are found bordering the beds of
