MORAL ASSASSINATION.

[F'rom the Evening Journal of Tuesday.1
After this investigation gets under way
it is very probable that there will be an
other and different kind of criticism
aroused by the fact that THE COMMIT
TEE MAY NOT MAKE ALL OF ITS
SESSIONS AND THE TESTIMONY OF
ALL OF ITS WITNESSES PUBLIC. It
Is well understood by those who have
had any experience in such matters that
certain men who may be the most valua-i
BILE sources of information to such COM
nfttee, and who are moved by desire
to give their services to the committee
are prevented from doing so from two
causes. The first is the horror that every
man feels over placing himself in a posi-
ton that the rag-tag and rabble can be-
gin to yell "Squealerr' and the second
is the persecution. into which all the in
genuity of the Devil himself enters, to
hound witness for months after he has
performed service to the people by go
ina C1 the stand.

smoothly as a book agent. Yesterday af-
ternoon he entered the candy store kept
by Mrs. John Schroeder, a widow, at
No. I'll Sixth street, and said he wanted
to purchase a book strap. Mrs. Schroe-
der showed him several and he finally
selected one costing five cents. Then he
asked for a slate and a package of cigar
cites When the articles were placed on
the counter he remarked:
Il guess I'll take along ten cents worth
of nice candy, too"
Mrs. Schroeder turned her back to the
urchin to take the candy from shelf.
AS she did so he grabbed the slate, cigar
cites and strap and scampered out on the
street. She followed him for a block, but
as no policeman was in sight the young
thief made his escape.

similar manner and the police are

THE ILLNESS OF MRS. LEE.
Her Condition is More Serious and
Gen. Lee VIII Return To-Day.

Mrs. Fitzhugh Lee Is quite Ill at St
I.uke's Home.
Her condition the last two days, while
not such as 10 cause alarm, has been
more serious than at any time during
her sickness. and the knowledge of this
fact has caused General Lee to return
from Savannah. Ga, where he went on
Sunday to prepare for the reception of
his army corps. which is TO be moved
there from Jacksonville He will arrive
here tonight, accompanied by his son,
Lieutenant F1tzhugh Lee, Jr.
Mrs. Lee spent the early part of the
summer with General Lee at Jackson
VILE. and while there contracted dengue-
fever with which she was stricken down
soon after her return TO Richmond The
case appeared to be mild one at first.
but last week ii was deemed advisable
10 remove her to St Luke's. She was
getting along quite well when General
Lee was here on Sunday, so he left that
night for Savannah.
Mrs. Lees fever, which has developed
rather the typhoid nature, was quite high
throughout yesterday, but she was con-
sidered slightly better last night, and
was resting very well.
telegram received by the Dispatch
last night from Savannah, says;
General Fitzhugh Lee and son, Lieu
tenant Fftzhugh Lee, Jr., left Savannah
tonight. shortly after midnight, for
Richmond. Va, where they have been
called on account of the serious Illness
of Mrs. Lee, news of which came this
evening. During General Lees absence

will be in command of the corps, and

MAY RETAIN THE SECOND.
The Secretary of war Gives n Con-
ditionaI Promise.

The Secretary OF War has informed |
Colonel James C. Baker, of the Second |
Virginia. that his regiment will be re-
have been brought back here to be mus
tered out. as many as 75O OF the enlisted
men desire to stay
This information comes directly from
Colonel Baker himself being conveyed by
an officer of the regiment In a message
from the Colonel to Captain William
Kent of Company ID. Second Regiment
who has been In the city several days
Colonel Baker has been In Washington
some time endeavoring to have his regi-
ment kept In the service. II was re-
ported that he desired to have only two
battalions retained, and that this was not
to include the three Second Regiment
companies from Richmond, but this was
speedily contradlcted, and the news re-
ceived last night shows that he has been
working with a different object in view,
and that he has worked to some purpose.
The great question now is. VIII $50 men
of the regiment vote to stay in service?
Opinion is divided. An officer of the
regiment said to Dispatch reporter last
night that he could not express an inteli-
gent opinion as to the entire command,
but that so far as his company was con-
cerned he believed that fully the neces-
sary proportion was ready to volunteer
to remain in the service and to go any
where
Probably three or four of my men
would be foolish TO stay in the service"
he said. "They have others dependent
upon them or are men who can make far
more than the salary they would receive
In the army. Such men ought not TO think
| of remaining in the service, and 1 shall
\ advise them not to do so. But there is
no Disgusting the fact that the great ma
| jority, practically all of them, will do
| far better to remain in the service than
TO stay at home. They only get $3.50
month, it is true, but you must remem-
ber that in addition to this they receive
board, clothing, and lodging, so that at
| the end of the month every man. II he
behaves himself, has In his pocket $500
| NOW L kHOW, yOu hhN"' N''"e -~''
laborers have that much after I'll bills
are paid at the end of the month.
81 saw after being home with my men
a few days" he continued, that there
was a great change in sentiment among
| them regarding continuing in the service,
and j have every reason to believe that a
considerable majority now wish to do so.
They have also come to understand that
doing police duty in Cuba is highly hon
orable, and that it does not mean they
are to be all the time engaged in dig
ging bitches and acting as city scaven-
gers
1t is impossible to correctly gauge the
sentiment of the regiment, but II IL Is
kept in the service the people will feel
assured that Virginia never had finer
organization in the field.
