is said that 1t corroborates generally the
newspaper reports on the subject. Ac-
cording to General Lees report, the dis
turbance has been quelled for the time
being, but he is apprehensive of an
other outbreak at any moment. Moth
has been heard from the Consul General
today, so 1t is assumed at the State De-
partment that the situation remains un-
changed in Havana. General Lee did not
ask that warship be sent to Havana
and in the opinion of the State Depart
ment officials, that is sufficient reason
for the assumption that there Is no &C.
casion for sending one. The officials are
evidently not aprehensive of any trouble
in the immediate future that will re-
quire the forcible Intervention Of our
government. The disquieting feature of
the situation is the horrible condition OF
the poor in Cuba.
According to General Lees advices, no
less than 100000 people on the island are
in the last stages of destitution and are
wholly dependent upon charity. Tc
feed these people on a 10-cent ration per
day would cost $4,000 daily, which sum
is double the amunt so far received in
contributions by the State Department
In the opinion of General Lee 20 per cent
of these poor people are surely doomei to
death from starvation and disease. In
such a state of affairs the existence of
any form of organized government is
threatened and the autonomy plans OF
Spain command little attention.
The naval authorities maintain their
serenity Notwithstanding many rumors
of radical action, such as the dispatch
of warships to Havana and like stories.
Secretary Long was asked whether any
of the American ships had been ordered
to be ready to sail for Havana. He re-
matter he would say that he had not
made any change in the orders Of tho
battleship Maine now lying at Key
West. Inquiry developed the fact that
the Names last orders were to go out
for target practice and upon falling in
with the North American squadron, to
attach herself.
Although there Is no expectation at
the Navy Department of any trouble
just now, still, in case it Should occur.
the navy is more strongly represented
in Florida and the West Indian waters
than it has been in the past ten years.
At Key West there is the second-class
battleship Maine and the cruiser Mar
BILE head; at Jacksonville, the dynamite
cruiser Vesuvius; at Guadaloupe, the
Wilmington. The Detroit is on the way
from Cape Haytien to Key West, where
she is now due. The Marblehead is at

SEMINOLE INDIANS
Are Behaving as Well as They Know
How

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.-General
Brooke at Chicago has telegraphed the
war department that his inquiries di-
rected to the commanding officer at
Fort Reno, I. T., bring the response that
there is no danger of an Indian uprising
The railroad authorities, Gen. Brooke
says, make the same report, so he sus-
pended the orders to the cavalry TO pro-
ceed to Wewoka.
Governor Barnes of Oklahoma re-
ported to Secretary Bliss that the Indian
massacre story was wholly false. In
structions had been given to the terri
torial officials to do everything in their
power to prevent further trouble, and
every effort would be made to arrest the
parties composing the mob.
Indian Agent Wisdom at Muskogee,
1. T., wires that there is no uprising. He
compliments the Seminoles upon their
good behavior under trying circum-
stances.
