FITzBUGH LEE, JR., RETURNS.
ut IL Thought That re Br,nSs a Message to the
President.

TAMPA, Fla, March 13.-Fitzhugh Lee, Jr.,
son Of Consul-General Lee. arrived here late
this afternoon on the steamer olivette from
Havana. He was retioent about saying any
thing revealing official matters. but made the
following statement:
~ have been in Havana only ten days, hav-
ing gone there to visit my father on my regular
winter vacation. While in Havana l ascer-
tanned q number Of facts concerning the pres.
ent strained situation between Spain and the
United States. / am Of opinion that war be.
tween the two countries is imminent, notwith.
standing tho fact that diplomacy will be taxed
to its furtbest limit to prevent 1t. The Maine
disaster and the attitude Of the United States
Government upon the bclligcroncy question
will be the chief incentives. while the report
OF the Court Of Inquiry. now at work In Havana
investigating the Maine disaster. has not been
made public, their determination Is probably
known to the officials"
Mr.. Leo left tonight for Richmond, where he
will visit his mother for = fow days before going
to Washington. He denies absolutely the re-
port that his father is in any danger of violence
and says that there is now surrounding the
United States Consulate q guard Of eight men
detailed from the regular Spanish Army. Flo
further denies the story that has been sent out
to the effect that his father has asked the United
States Government to send other warships to
the harbor OF Havana Cor the protection Of
American interests.
Passengers arriving from Havana with young
Lee say that tho impression prevailed in Havana
that he was the bearer of an official report
from the Court of Inquiry to President Mo
Kinley. and also Of important reports from his
father to the Secretary of State.

MAKING RAILROADS READY.

The Government Has the Right or Way on All
HLnas EnterinG Atlanta.
ATLANTA, Ga. March 13.-In response to
kilograms from Washington last night, the
Government now practically controls the right
OF way on all railroads entering this city from
the East and Northwest. This statement con-
veys only a small impression OF the breadth
of the instructions which the railroads centring
here received. These orders were to the effect
that every bit Of rolling stock that could posi-
bly, be pressed into service in an emergency
was to be overhauled and made ready to take
the road at a moments warning. 1t is known
that the Western and Atlantic Railroad, the
feeder of the system from the Northwest, and
its rival. the Southern. have received these or
ders, and the fact is also pretty well estab-
lished that all the other routes are practically
under the same instructions.
AS a result decrcpit old engines and freight
and passenger cars are being inspected and Or
dered for necessary repairs. 1t is thought that
these preparations are duo to Che fact that
secret information of a critical nature has been
received at Washington. and that the Govern
nlent wants to have the way clear for an i'm
mediate mobilization Of troops Mt Atlanta.
whence they can be handled with ease and de-
spatch.
The Southern Railroad last week, at the re.
quest of the War Department, made a report
OF the time required to transport mon and sup
plies to Pensacola, Fla. but since then 1t APP
pears that urgent conditions have arisen which
necessitatcd giving orders of a more peremDtory
nature to the other railroads In this region. The
railroad officials refuse to talk on the subject,
but the activity in the shops leaves little to con-
lecture.

States and Spain. 1t Is not exactly true, as
published, that the United States has sounded
all foreign Governments on this point; at least
this diplomatic move has not been made since
the Spanish controversy became acute. but in
more ways than one the Administration has
boon made to understand at various times that
Continental Europe has NO desire to interfere
in any policy adopted by the United States. II
the United States and Spain should como to.

looked upon war rs almost "A certainty and

tration are simply following in the
