SONS COMING TO THIS COUNTRY.
GEN. LEE NOT INSTRUCTED TO LEAVE
II Is Said. However, That Some of the
Consular Records Have Been Sent
North-To-Day and To-MOrrOw Holy
Days.

HABANA, April 6.-The MascOtte sailed
this afternoon, with a full complement OF
passengers, among them many distin-
guished families. During the last twenty
four hours there have been issued $50
passports to persons proceeding or about
TO proceed TO the United States.
The attitude of the public is one of
quiet expectancy. The order maintained
in the city is admirable.
Consul-General Lee assures the CORE
spondent Of the Associated Press that he
has received no instructions TO leave Ha-
bana. 1t is said. however. that some Of
the consular records were sent north by
the Mascotte to-day. She IS expected back
from Key West on Friday. With the
Bache Mangrove. and Fern. there will
then be ample facilities for taking away
all who are entitled TO go.
The G.. Iawton Childs Company had in
tended 10 close their business here to-
day, but have reconsidered the decision.
That bank and the Hidalgo Company's
bank We're crowded during banking hours
to-day. Tomorrow. Holy Thursday, and
tho next, Good Friday will both be re-
ligiOusly observed in all quarters. No
business OF any kind Will be transacted
and oven carriages. cabs, and street-cars
will be forbidden on the streets. 1t is
possible that telegraphic communication
will be cut off on account of these holy
days.
