Long Private Conference HeId-Hs VIII
Return to Cuba.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 20. - General
f~itzhugh Lee. consul general to Cuba,
had a long consultation by special ap.
pointment with the President ut the
White house to-day. All visitors were
excluded except Secretary Alger.
General Lee carefully reviewed the
situation in Cuba and explained all
points upon which either the Presi-
lent or Secretary Alger asked for in.
formation. He gave his W views
freely to the President, but after the
Interview was very reticent about the
nature OF the report made. He said
the President had not given him an
outline Of his policy.
The president was deeply impressed
with the character Of the situation
described and 1t Is understood that he
strongly urged Consul General Lee to
retain his office, at least for the pres
ent, and to return to Havana at his
earliest convenience. As It had been
strongly intimated for several month.
''"s congressman hlurlCu WOulu sue
coed General Lee at Havana and that
the latter would probably not return,
the Presidents action is construed to
mean that he thinks it inadvisable to
make a change at this juncture.
General Lee left this afternoon for
C%ovington, Va, but before his depart.
urc admitted that he would return to
Cuba as soon as he had arranged his
private affairs, probably about the
middle OF October. In private con-
v%ersation with close personal friends
he expressed himself vigorously as to
the situation in Cuba and was very
emphatic in his condemnation of some
OF General Weyler's methods.

stOp.Over Privilege al Washington.

A ten day stop-over at Washington, DC,
is now granted on all through tickets be-
tween the East and West, via Baltimore &
Ohio railroad. Stop-over will also be
granted on the return journey made on
round trip tickets, within the final limit Of
such tickets, but not exceeding ten days.
Passengers will deposit their tickets with
the ticket agent at B. g. 0. railroad sta
tion in Washington, who will retain them
until the journey is to be resumed, when
they will be made good for continuous
passage to destination by extension
or exchange. This arrangement viii

holders Of through tickets to make brief

Health Conditions at Port Arthur

Many inquiress are made relative 60 health
conditions at Port Arthur, Texas. For the
information OF readers the following letter ls
given The writer was Tor many years Presid-
ING Elder Of the NJ. E. church In the South
Kansas Conference.
Having lived upon the Gulf coast, |
am desirous that all who are looking to
the South for homes and health should
obtain, rs far as possible, all necessary
information. 1t must be borne in mind
that the inland salt sea lines these shores
and supplies the air with vapor Of south
eastern Texas. The purity Of the air
impregnsted with salt is seen in the
preservation Of cistern water, which is
accumulated in large tanks upon the
surface like the large stock tanks of the
West. This water remains pure and
sweet throughout the heated summer
season. Water thus accumulated in the
North would in few days become so
foul as to be offensive for any use. Salt
is onr great preserVer and purifier. 1t
is anti-miasmatic in this region, there
fore there is less Of fever and ague and
bilious fever than in the higher attitudes
in proportion to the population. The
atmosphere of the Gulf coast is most
grateful to all nasal affections. Catarrh
yields readily and permanently to it's
healing qualifications. Some years since
l removed my family from the attitudes
Of the West to the sea level of the Gulf
for reasons Of improvement in health.
One Of our small children was danger
ously affected with nasal catarrh; the
whJle nasal membrane covering the
interior OF the head and throat was most
seriously involved. It seemed that each
succeeding cold season would result in
his death. Soon after reaching the Gulf
coast, he began to improve and within
twelve months was entirely we'll, with no
symptoms Of returning trouble. The
secretory system undergoes thorough
and radical change. The humidity Of
the air, combined with the mildness
and regularity of the climate, produces
most healthful capillary action. All
kidney trouble are favorably affected and
relieved by the flushing process; free
perspiration, produced by the humid and
warm conditions OF the air, affords relief
to the hundreds Of channels Of waste,
giving relief to the whole system. George
W. 81. Cline of Lake Charles, La came
to this coast affected with what his
physicians pronounced Bright's disease
Of the kidneys, He at once began rapid
improvement and has reached complete
recovery. Rheumatic affections are
greatly benefited by the healthfulness
Of this region. Bronchial affections and
all nerve disturbances are greatly bene-
tited. Here is pure air, pure water,

TWO POLICE DEPARTMENTS.
Superior to Have a War Over Stark
weather's Appointments

WEST SUPERIOR, Wis, June A.
Mayor Starkweather at o'clock this
morning gathered the police force and
demanded from each member of the
department statement as to what
authority he recognized. Of the thirty
men, most refused to answer, five
thought they would obey Starkweather
and two would take no orders except
from Chief of Police Crumpton.
Starkweather called the. men before
him, he says, to ascertain what au-
thority . he had to execute his com
mands in case Of necessity and he will
now fill the places Of all men not
recognizing him with new appoint
ments. The old men acting under Chief
CrumDton, who has recognized and
stands by the eX-Mayor Pattison board
of fire and police commissioners, will
refuse to give up their stars and there
will soon be two police departments,
one under Starkweather's direction and
one under Crumpton, the latter holding
possession Of city police headquarters
Chief of Police Crumpton has just
rejected an offer Of settlement of the
difficulties proposed by Starkweather
who offered in consideration of Crump-
tons recognizing his appointees and
executing his orders to send Crump-
toms name to the council as chief of
police. Under this Crumpton would
discharge the old men, and he has re-
fused the terms of capitulation
