Gen. Lees Ovation.


NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-Gen. Fitzhugh
Lee went to Wallack'g Theater last
evening, accompanied by several
friends. Gen. Lee was in uniform, but,
as he did not arrive until the curtain
had arisen, few people saw him enter
the theatre. The party included q. B.
Plant of the Plant line, Gen. c. H.
Hyns and 81. J. O'Brien. The two
lower boxes on the right.hand side Of
the stage had been reserved for it. At
the close ofthe first act bouquet was
handed to Miss Alice Nelson, who is
singing the leading role in "The For
tune Teller" She walked over to
Gen. Lees box and handed him
the flowers. The General stood
up and bowed. Then the crowd
realized for the first time who
the man in uniform was Every
body stood up and cheered.
The orchestra struck up the "Star Span
led Banner," and the people sang it
with g will. After the cheering and
noise had died away many people
crowded to the box and shook Gen.
Lse's hand. He held an informal re-
ception until the curtain rose again.
Between the second and third acts the
scene was repeated. This time "Dixie"
was played. People weren't so familiar
with the words, but every one could
hum the tune. In return for the
flowers Gen. Lee wrote his name on
the cover of a souvenir bonbon box
which he had saved from his dinner
and gave it to Miss Nielsen. After the
performance large part of the audi
ence, to get good look ct the former
Consul to Havana, crowded around his
carriage. There was more handshak-
ing until the party was driven to the
Fifth Avenue Hotel. Gen. Lee leaves
to-day for Washington to appear before
the war board investigation.

ing specific charge. Senator Penrose
declared that Mr.. Wauamaker's repre-
sentative later made an offer ofS250,000
to Senator Quay, through the latter's

Don Cameron in the United States SEN

come Mayor OF Philadelphia through

purchase the senatorship, and after
failing to secure the republican euber-
Material nomination attempted to de.

pletely swept away, and only three per-
sons succeeded in getting oil the island
There is no definate information as to
the population of the island, and esti-
mates of the number supposed to have
persisted there range from twenty to
fifty. The population was made up
wholly OF colored truck growers. Four
deaths are now reported from Buns
wick. Reports of marine disasters are
coming in. Two children were drowned
at Fernandina, Fla. A family of mother,
father and three children were in their
house when the tide carried it away.
One Of the boys undertook to save his
baby brother, but was unable to reach
shore, being forced 10 drop the child.
The father was rescued from q tree
and the mother drfted ashore. The
crew at the quarantine station were
rescued from life raft, the station be.
ing entirely destroyed. The highest
tide that ever arose at Fernandina was
experienced Sunday. Many buildings

Mr.. Parr, the republican candidate

Arrangements are being made as rapidly
as possible for transferring the present mill

tons in Virginia. But Virginia republicans
say they we'll know that Mr.. Bowden's oppo-
sition TO Dr. Wise in the Norfolk district will
never be removed.

DAUGHTER OF THE CONFED-
ERACY.

Miss Lucy Lee Hill has written let
tiers expressing regret that any contro-
versy should have arisen in regard to a
successor for Miss Winnie Davis as
Daughter of the Confederacy," and
agreeing with General Gordon that the
title should die with the original pos
SCISSOR.
At meeting in Richmond last
night of the Daughters of the Confed-
eracy resolution was adopted strong
~ condemning the effort to name a
successor for Miss Winnie Davis. The
same action was recommended to the
State Camp of the Daughters.
The question Of now selecting any
successor to Miss Davis seems to be
settled beyond dispute. 1t is stated
upon the highest authority that the
most influential and prominent leaders
in the South, including we'll known
United Veteran officials, have practi-
cally DISPOSED OF it.
Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1898-10-05

WASHINGTON AND Northern newspa-
pers appear to be very much interested
in the matter of the successorship to the
title of the Daughter of the Confed-
eracy," matter in which they can
have no real concern. AS we'll might
the people of the South pretend to be
interested in the successorship to the
title OF the commander of the G.. A. +.
In common sense and proper feeling
there can be no successor to the title
that was bestowed by the sympathizers
of the lost cause upon the late Miss
Winnie Davis; but if there could be,
Northern people would have no inter
est in it, and no right thinking North
ern man would express any such inter-
est. But it really seems as if there is
no peculiarly Southern or foreign af-
fair in which some Northern people do
notIdeem it their business to interfere
and NEEDLE.

To Sell Spanish Vessels.

MADRID, Oct. 5.-The government
has authorized Captain Auuon, Minis
ter of Marine, to sell the Spanish war
vessels in Cuban waters to the Domin-
lean or other republics desiring the
purchase.
NEW YORK, Oct. 5.-The dispatch
from Madrid stating that the Spanish
government has authorized the sale Of
the Spanish war vessels in Cuban wa
ters, caused merriment in naval circles.
Spain simply has nothing left worth
taking back TO Spain. With the excep.
ton of the Alphonso MI in Havana
harbor all of SPANS war vessels left
in the Antilles consist of armed steam
launches and a few small gunboats.
These vessels slowed themselves away
in shallow water during the war where
our warships could not get at them.
That is the reason they exist to day.
Few, if any of these craft could cross
the ocean to Spain except on the deck
of steamer.

platform, and will continue to do so

ton, and so decided yesterday in State

of all the people of the country, by
stopping the depressing uncertainty in
respect OF the currency, and as the in

THERE Is a strange story that reaches
the public, to the effect that Mr.. Bryan,
who has been seriously i'll with fever in
Washington and had started for the
Hot Springs to build up his health by
a stay of three or four days, had been
peremptorily ordered by the head Of
the War Department to reioin his
regiment at Jacksonville at once.
The animus of this order, if issued,
is but too apparent. The mean,
stealthy rancor of the Secretary for
this eloquent champion of the people
is extremely natural. Mr.. Bryan's life.
his character and principles all point a
sharp contrast to the low jobbers who
have been waited into public positions
at Washington. Even his silence points
a rebuke to such unworthy men. Each
one of this class, and the Secretary Of
War especially, may say with Shakes
peare's villain: "The daily beauty Of
his life makes me ugly" Perhaps there
is some faint hope that sick man or
dered to Florida may not come back to
plague the administration, but we hope
and believe that the game will not
work. Mr.. Bryan has obeyed the order
of his military superior, the Secretary,
and gone to Jacksonville. General
Fitz. Lee, whose command embraces
Col. Bryan's regiment, was in Wash
ington the other day, visiting the War
Department No body supposes he
had any hand in this business of Al
gers, and yet to everybody it seems
very strange, and contrary to military
rule, that the War Department should
send an order direct to a colonel in his
command. which he did not approve
and endorse. An explanation from the
General or from the Secretary himself
would be perfectly in order.

THE LATEST manifestation of the
irrepressible conflict between the white
and black races is in Washington, In
diana, the whole of which town has
been thrown into a state of anxiety
and alarm by reason of deliberately
organized attack upon the negroes liv-
ing there, whose only offense was their
expressed willingness to earn their liv-
ing by filling the places white men had
voluntarily abandoned. And this, too,
it need not be forgotten, is in Indiana, q
Northern State that gave large ma
ioritY for Mr.. Mckinley.
