SPAIN DEMANDS GEN. LEES RE
CALL FROM HAVANA, BUT
: UNCLE SAM SAYS, NAY.

Washington. Mch 6.-The Spanish Sit
uation developed two new phases today
When 1t became known that the Spanish
Government had formerly requested the
recall Of Consul General Lee from hispost
az Havana, TO which request the United
States has courteously but firmly refused
to comply; also that the Spanish Govern
mcnt had suggested the improperly Of
sending relief supplies to Cuban recon-
centrados on war vessels, to which sug-
gestion the United States has given like
answer In the negative.
The first intimation of these steps came
In brief cable dispatch from Madrid.
Prior to its receipt however, the authori-
ties here mad been conversant with the
facts, but no intimation had been allowed
to get to the public on either subject. The
disclosure from Madrid left no ground for
reticence, and after conference between
the President, Assistant Sec. Day and Sec
Long Of the Navy, the following author
ICED statement was handed to the Associ-
ated Press by Judge Day:
''The President will not consider the re-
call of Consul General Lee. He has con-
Quoted himself with Judgment, fidelity,
and courage to the Presidents entire sat-
faction.
"As to the supplies for the relief of the
Cuban people, all arrangements have been
made to carry consignment this week
from Key West, by one Of the naval ves-
sells, whichever may be best adapted and
available for the purpose, to Matanzas
and Sagua."

NUNEZ IN A RAGE.

New York, March 5.-Emilio Nunez the
promoter of Cuban filibustering expedi-
tions, who has just returned to his home
in this city from his recent trip to Cuba
on the filtbustering tug Dauntless, was
today shown the Washington dispatch
which stated that Senior DuBosc the Span
ish Charge d'Affaires, had Informed the
State Department that the Dauntless ex-
petition was not successful, and had fail
ed to effect landing.
Mr.. Nunez said; my last expedition
to Cuba landed 100000 bullets at the end
of Mauser cartridges, and every one OF
these bulle is being used to let daylight
into those who do as Senior Dub Csc thinks
Senior DuBosc knows as much about my
doings in Cuba as many people do about
the explosion Of the Maine, and II Senior
DuBosc thinks, as the Havana authori-
ties say, that the Maine blew up on her
own account, then Senior DuBosc I'm that
as regarding the expedition, is liar.
"Senor DuBosc knows that the Maine
was blown up by Spanish hands. and with
official connivance and knowledge"

A BIG ARMY.

The military strength of the United
States, in an emergency requiring dis
play OF its full force, says the New York
Sun, is something really wonderful. Ii
the forty-nine States and Territories, the
total unorganized force that could be rails
ed, presumably by CONSUMPTION, out o.
our population of 100000. is lO,3Ol.33
men; to which is added our organized ar
my OF 1882 men, so that our available
force wou!d tc nearly ten and half mil
lion Of men.
II this be true, then China with hel
4OO,OOO,OOO people should be able to raise
nearly six times as many, or about 5000
600 soldiers. But such calculations al
ways fall far short of the reality. when II
comes TO practical test of them. II the
chinese could fisht as well as the Russians
or Englishmen they could wipe out every
civilized nation In existence.
Torevert to the figures OF the Sun. Il
thinks that Georgia might raise about
204, 600 and Florida 10000, while New YORK
State is set down for 800 600 and Indians
for 10000. 1t Is wonderful what figure.
will do when you once set them to work.

During all OF the turmoil with regard to
the Maine affair, and the DeLome affair,
there has been just the barest mention of
the name Of John Sherman; merely enough
to let the public know that he is still In
the Office OF Secretary Of State. 1t would
seem that the old gentleman is not let in
to governments secrets; he does not
know'what is going on In hlsdepartmeht;
nobody ever goes to him for information
or advice; he, is only figure head. Mr..
Sherman has been one of the great men
of his party. 1t is pity that the Ohio
politicians will not let him retire to that
rest to which his long aud eminent SER
vice entltle him.-Sayannah News.

declaring in sermon that he would picl

Rev. Gaddie declared negroes were moi
respected In this country. that the law
was dead letter, that they were not pro.

showing and on this account he would not
under any circumstances. aid In fighting
the Spaniards or any other nation Will
whom the United States might be at war
He urged his flock to follow his lead. but
the sermon was generally denounced by
the colored people.

A prominent Savannah gentleman
while in Washington on business connect
ed with the treasury department, said In
regard to the Cuban situation: "Let the
treacherous, cowardly Spaniards harm
one gray hair in General Ftzhugh Lees
head and it will be impossible to restrain
the Southern people. They love General
Lee and should any injury be done to him
they would break down every barrier and
invade Cuba with volunteer army which
would sweep the Spanish army into the
sea. This is not idle talk, but the truth.
Our young men are now boiling over with
patriotism and are impatient to avenge
the injury and insult already offered this
country"

sells. He said that should he receive such
a request, he would at once confer with
the State health authorities. He declin-
ed to anticipate what such action would
be, but there is no possibility of a conflict
between the United States and Florida
officials.
Secretary Matthews Of the State Board
OF Health says that If any conflict shall
arse between Florida and Federal author
tiles on April /, II will be due to the Fed :
eral authorities and not to those Of this
State. The Florida State law provides
for the enforcement Of quarantine on May
1, but, as matter Of exigency, the State
Board of Health is empowered TO pass
rules that shall have the force of statute
law. At its last meeting, which was held
in January, upon the advice of Secretary
Gage, acting upon the suggestion Of Sur
geon General Wyman. the State board Of
Health passed the April rule, and has
since instructed its agents at various
Florida ports to enforce it. Surgeon Gen.
Wyman made the suggestion under the
opinion that danger from infection by
yellow fever should be guarded against
earlier this year than last. The Governor
Of Florida has no jurisdiction over the
State Board of Health further than to call
it together. Tis may be done II the cir
cumstances warrant, and will probably be
done If the President so requests, for this
state and its officials have always display
ed liberal acquiescence in Federal re-
quests, especially in matter of extraor-
binary eXiQency,

FLORIDA'S SHARE OF APPROPRI-
ALTON

Cumberland Sound, Georgia, and Flori-
da together, are to have an appropriation
Of S450,000 for river and harbor improve
ment. That is large reduction from the
original figures and many points will feel
the difference. In proportion, Pensaco-
las request is small and she Is to get It,
Comparing Savannahs demand for
s45O, 200, ours seems absurdly small and
Savannah has been successful. II s45O,-
were to be spent upon Pensacola's harbor
what wonderful results would be produce
ed! Perhaps at some time, not very dis
tant, Pensacola will wake up to her needs
and request handsome appropriation,
too.
Until then we must rest content with
our $4,000 and show to the world how
much a little expense can do for Pensaco-
la. Our commerce, with the aid of few
thousands, will increase as rapidly as
would be effected by Mullins elsewhere.
In view Of this, we need not worry over
the miserlness of the sum. We shall do
better next time.-News.
Why is 1t that our Representatives and
Senators are satisfied with so little ap-
preparations? Pensacola Is now one of
the most important ports on the Gulf
coast, and only second to anything on the
Atlantic. Then be put of with just any
little old thing? That's not right. Give
Pensacola good appropriation. and see
the best port In the Union.
