GENERAL FITZ LEE.

General Lee arrived in Richmond
last night from Washington and will
proceed tonight to Jacksonville to re-
sumo command of the Seventh Army
| Corps. He was met en- route by num-
Der of friends, and was given an ovation
both at the depot and at the fireworks
exhibition, where there were 5000 peo-
Pile assembled. General Lee says he
was offered the ommssionership in
Cuba by the President, but declined it.,
and asked to be allowed to continue at
the head of the Seventh Army Corps.
His request was granted, and he was
told that his corps, which had been re-
served ali along for the invasion of
Cuba, would be sent there about the lst
of October as an army of occupation.
The War Department thinks it better
to hold the army in Jacksonville until
cooler weather sets in, but Gen. Lee
was informed before he left Washing
ton that in event of any trouble occur
ring sooner in Cuba his army would be
ordered there forthwith. He expects to
take his entire command TO Cuba short
ly, with sufficient troops added to bring
his corps up to $4,000 men. The Third
Virginia regiment, now at Camp Alger,
will, it is said, be assigned to his COM
mand.
The general said in semi jocular.
but earnest tone: 81 am going back
to Jacksonville and get my army and
take it to Cuba and then after my duty
there has been done l am coming back
here to my people and give them the
opportunity they are pining tor-of
sending me to the Senate"
On his way to Richmond Gen. Lee
stopped at Fredericksburg and was met
at the station by his brother, Capt.
Dan N. Lee, who drove him to the lat.
tet'5 home, Highland Place" in Stat
ford county, where General Lee spent
several hours with his aged mother. In
an interview he confirmed the report
OF his candidacy for the United States
Senate, and stated he expected to be in
Cuba again in O few weeks. He
also stated that the Third Virginia reg
iment will be assigned to his command
and 60 with him to Cuba.

peace commissioners and legal advisers
of that body. The matter of the Span
ish debt secured by the revenues of
Cuba and Porto Rico, it is said, also in

A Vast Fortune to be Divided.

New YORK, Aug. 19.-The statement
is made that within a month the mil
lions of dollars worth of securities left
by Jay Gould, in trust for his children,
may be divided and probably sold. Thus
one of the greatest fortunes in America
is to be split into six parts. The cause
of the expected partition is the coming
of age of Frank Gould, the youngest
child. He will be 81 years old next
month, and then, under his fathers will,
the trusteesbip of the estate is to cease.
The bulk of the Gould fortune is in the
New York Elevated railroad.

who believe implicitly in his innocence,

by the dead girls mother. 1t was said
Il at it would undoubtedly take several
days to finish the preliminary hearing.
No new evidence has come to light.
The theory is that the murderer, after

killed her in order to get the check
back from her.
