He Denies Some Sensational Stories Re.
garding the Trip.

Richmond, Va, February s.-[Spe-
ciall Mr.. Fitz Lee, jr., q son OF the Con-
sul-General of Cuba, leaves here tomor-
row night to join his father ut Havana.
Mr.. Lee, who was for some time Gen.

sensational story published that he las

account of fears of the latter's safety.
Young Lee is s-employe ed on the Chesa-

the report that his departure for Cuba

MAJOR GENERAL FlTzHUGn LEE.
This to Be His Rank in Case of War
With Spain.

The Washington correspondent of the
hichmond Dispatch says:
A quiet sensation today, which has
been impaired to only favored few,
is the proposed appointment OF Consul
General Fitzhugh Lee, at Havanna, as
major general of the United States
army in the event of war with Spain
1t Is stated on pretty good authority
that it was the intention of President
Cleveland to make this appointment
under the same circumstances, ana Mr..
Mckinley feeling that i would receive
the endorsement of the American press
and people, has determined to make
it.
OF course, Major General Miles would
be Commander-in Chief if Lieutenant
General Schofield was not temporarily
called back into service, to assume com.
command.
1t is stated that the appointment of
General Lee to a major-generalship
would remove him from the political
field, but upon his retirement il would
also secure him the salary of that Office
for life. However this may be, it is GER
tain, on the authority of member, that
this matter war discussed by the For
eign Relations Committee of the House,
and there is every reason to believe th at
in the event of was General Lee will be
called into the service of the United
States army on the island of Cuba.

RESTRICTION OF
SUFFRAGE.
NORTHERN VIEWS CHANGING.
The South Must Deal with the
Question according to Ex-
isting Conditions.
Lynchburg News.l

Lynchburg News.
The proposed action of the Louisiana
convention TO restrict suffrage by re-
quiring an educational or property quail
i6cation naturally attracts much atten-
ton in the North, as well us in the
South. The tenor of the comments in
Northern newspapers indicates n radical
change of sentiment in that section on
the subject. We subjoin an editorial
from the Pittsburg Post, which may be
taken as fair sample of the sentiment
which is rapidly growing universal.
Says the Post:
"a great change has taken place in
Northern opinion on the Southern SUI
frage question. We of the North of ali
parties, are very much disposed TO let
the Southerners manage it as best they
can. considering their peculiar and ex-
ceptionnl conditions, of which we have
had no experience or home Wedge.
1t is n pretty general admission mt the
North that negro suffrage has been a
great failure, and could the step be re-
traced it would never be made conpul-
sorry on the people OF the States. But il
is in the constitution TO stay, and the
sole remedy appears to he to dodge
or evade it, which is OF doubtful politi-
cal morality. Ten years ago attempts
such as have been recently made, and
are now making in Louisiana, to abridge
the negro vote, would have stirred up a
political ouiburst of the most violent
aud sweeping character, and been fcl-
lowed by force laws, bnt Northern opir-
ion now appears to justify The South in
doing anything that it can within reason

evil. The TACT iS, a sentiment s growing

Legal Status of the Volunteers.

We have received from an esteemed
correspondent the letter which follows:
Editor of The Tribune
Sir: | wish to ask the question, what
the enlistment phrase 1.-TWO years. or
during the war" really means in con-
nection with our soldier boys now in
camp? Does it mean service in the army
for two years provided the war lasts
that length of time, with the right of dis
charge if it WAS closed within that pc
Rod? or does it mean service more than
two years provided the war continues
longer than that period with no dis
charge until the end of the war? The
government is pleased to interpret, or de-
fine, the choice as meaning for two years
whether or no, IN direct opposition to the
understanding of some of our parents
who signed permits for our boys to en-
list as volunteers, and not as policemen
Tor the war only, with right of discharge
within the limit of two years, provided
the war should end within that period
Now with just as much reason might not
the government hold these men for five
or six years in the service? | permitted
my Dor Ga minor to enlist for the war as
soldier, and not as a policemen in Cuba
or anywhere else, and consider 1t ar N =.
justice, now that the war is virtually
ended, for the government TO hold him
that the government defines the phrase
as meaning whatever it pleases, leaving
the boys without remedy. Truly yours
Rev. l.. w. Church.
Hallstead, Pa, Sept. II.
Our understanding of the phrase "two
years, or during the war" is that IL
means a service of two wears if tho
war is not concluded sooner; hut If
concluded sooner, honorable discharge
at conclusion at the governments on
ton. If the war should last five years
the volunteers would hardly be asked
to serve longer than two years with
out re-enlistment, just as during the
civil war the men who went out for
short term got honorable discharges
at the conclusion of their periods OF
service and exercised their discretion
about re-enlisting. But the govern,
ment and not the soldier is to say. in
case the war ends within two years
whether the soldier shall be mustered
out before his two years term is ended
| The war, however, is not concluded
