DIR. MONEY RETURNS.
General Lee Says HisObjects in Visiting
Cuba Are Lawful.

of Mississippi the United States sena-
tor-eloct. who disa9p sarei from the Ho-
tel lnglaterra. on Saturday morning. Is
still missing and thus far no clue 10 his
whereabouts has been obtained.
AS II was the aVCwed intention of Mr..
Money. upon arriving In Cuba 10 pene-
trate the lines of the insurgents II he
possibly could with q view OF studying
the rebellion in the island and the con-
dillon OF the country from the rebels
pOint of view, as well as from the GCv-
eminent side. 1t is surmiscd that hc may
have found means 10 accomplish this OBJ
Ject, which would account Tor mis- disap-
pearance.
Mr. Money returned TO Havana this
evening. All efforts 10 learn from him
where he had been were fruitless. he
declining TO say anything that would
tend TO disclose his Whereabouts since De
disappeared. The general opinion IS
that he has been within the rebel lines
seeking the information he desired. but
there is no way OF proving this belief.
Consul-General Lee IS authority for
the statement that Mr.. Money has no
connection with the Cuban Junta in New
York. This statement is made In view
OF the fact that report has been cir
culated to the effect that Mr.. Money Is
an agent of the Junta. or has some con-
nection with that body. General Lee
adds that Mr.. Money has made the trip
TO Cuba for pleasure. and TO obtain per-
sonal information. within lawful limits,
of the condition OF the country, in order
TO enable him TO speak with authority
on the Cuban question.
Mr.. Money General Lee says, was
invited 10 visit the town OF san Jose
de Las Lajas. some fifteen miles south
east of Havana. I'm order 10 sec the
country. He went there that day and
remained until to-day. He remained In
the town during his entire stay and saw
no rebels.
