It is stated on what appears to be good
authority that Consul General Lee has some
information regarding the destruction of the
Maine which is of highly interesting char
acter. He is alleged to have expressed the
opinion that the Weyler letter to the effect
that he had mined the barbor of Havana
to destroy Yankee ships is genuine. If he
has beer called TO Washington to give his
views on this subject he may make some
very interesting statements

The report which was bulletined Wednes-
day morning that the President had been
burned in effigy in Durango, Col, is indig
nantly denied by a resident. Still, someone
must have telegraphed the report from that
State. AS the correspondent alludes to the
difference of opinion between most of the
people in that section and the President on
the money question, it can be stated that
the silver organs in Denver have We'd with
the silver-mine organ in New York city,
Mr.. Hearst's Journal, in vilifying the
President from the first, affording ground
to suspect that hostility to the President on
the silver question was the real inspira-
ton. The silver newspaper printed at
Durango, however, has spoken in commend
atory terms of the Presidents management
of the Cuban-Spanish affair.

about cur diplomatic representative there;
this gentleman attends functions given by
the Governor-as the representative of

comes from some place in Maine, and says
that only dudes wear dress coats up there,
