Where n Lee?" was the cry from
Tampa to thi- place. and until he made
his appearances the crowds could not
control their impatience. Whenever
the general stepped to the rear plat.
form outbursts OF applause greeted him
Before reaching Jasper. Fla, three
kilograms were received on the train
urging him to make his appearance, so
that the people could see him. Arriv-
ing there. the local company of state
troops and score Of Confederate vet
erans, with a Wild crowd. met him.
"A thousand welcomes to you, Cen
eral Lee, as a brave man: a thousand
welcomes to our old Confederate COM
rade: ten thousands of welcomes to
you, sir. for your admirable official
course as our consul at Havana" said
one Of the gray headed men. II thank
you, sir" said Lee for your kind ex-
pressions. l thank the American pe0-
pie for the commendation they have
shown my administration as your con-
sui general at Havana. l have never
really known until today how united
the people are in sanctioning my
course"
In the afternoon he endeavored to get
some sleep, but il was impossible. The
crowds would besiese the train and
even attempt to force the doors of the
private car In their frantic efforts To
see the popular general. One aged vet
eran said: II am e.. but all ] want
you to do is to sound the bugle, and
I will be with you, saddle and boots.
Don't put 1t off too long. general. Lcc
us go to haul down the Spanish flag"
This sentiment was general all along

Spnnlnrd- Jccrod Mt Americans ~
They Left Havana Uurbor.

WasninGtou, April l2.-The events oe
the past week. in Washington have
kept the general public guessing. while
there We're ondless war rumors, il was
known that tD' president would oppose
hostillliCs as far as consistent with
national honor. and the members of h!a
party in congress have fclt aVyrse tp
opposing his policy. While the war
preparations In both army and navy
have continued uninterruutadiy ths
news given out here has led to the be-
lief that war might yet be aycrtcd.
a feeling Of disgust spread over the
cCuury last Wednesday when it be
came known that the long expected
Cuban message would not be trans
mitted to congress, although it haQ
been promised on that day The rra-
son given was ,bat Consul General Leo
had cOunseei delay, fearing that there
might be an Mprising against Ampri-
cans in Havana. The reports for tn,
day We're extremely peaceful. Thurs
day war clouds again appeared, Il be-
ing announced that Consul General Lee.
had been ordered to leave Havana, and
on that day the exodus Of Americans
ii'li tut 'ultu capital was bGHlI.
FriC VS. dispatches from Madrid roit-
Grated Spain's determination To allow
no foreign interN cution. Another peace
full change came on Saturday, when j.
was announced from Madrid that an
armistiCe had been ordered In Cuba.
and yesterday this armistice went inta
effect. But as the insurgents have not
consented To the a"mstCc, and stil de
mand cuban independence, it is not
likely that the armiStice viii last. On
Sunday the steamers from Havana
landed rhe American refugees, includ-
ing Consul General Lee, at Key West.
and these refugees told OF the jeers
and insults that had been flung at
them by Spaniards as they were sail
ing out OF the harbOr. Get out, Yam
kee swine" was among the mildest ex-
pressions used. Vice Consul Springer
waved his hand to II particularly
abusive group and shouted: Walt.
wait my friends; we viii be back
soon" When the sailors at Key West
heard the expressions they felt certain
that they would be called upon to
lombard Havana this week and the
prospect of war made them extremely
jubllant.

sailors Expect Declaration of War.

Key West, April l2.-The confirma-
tion of the firm stand taken by Presl
dent Mckinley I'm the Cuban crisis as
shown by his message to congress, was
received with profound satisfaction
here. Naval officers think they are
now likely to be IN Havana tomorrow.
Some. of them go so far as to claim
that the presidents message is so war
like that their only speculation is as to
whether Spain will weaken. All the
sailors expect that the next bulletin
from the north will bring a declaration
of war; and they are wildly jubilant
at the prospect

"The forcible intervention of the Uni
ted States as neutral, to stop the war,
according to the large dictates of hui
manity and following many historical
precedents where neighborlng states
have interfered to check the hopeless
sacrifices of life by internecine con-
flicts beyond their borders, is justihable
on rational grounds. The grounds for
such intervention may be briefly sum-
married. as follows:
"First-ln the cause of humanity and
to put an end to the barbarities, blood
shed, starvation and horrible miseries
now existing there. and which the par
ties to the conflict are. either unable or
