PLOT TO AssAssINATE LEE.
1t is Said to Have Been Discovered by De-
tectlvcs In Havana.

Havana, April 10, via Key West
Havana is guarded more closely than
ever. the Arolas battalion being posted
around the limits of Vidano. the swell
suburb OF the city.
Within the last two days n number
of Cubans have been arrested and are
now confined in the Cabanas fortress,
charged with serious offenses. Some
say the prisoners have been engaged
In n plot to assassinate United States
Consul General Lee. and others assert
that they have been acting as spies
for the United States government.
There Is no doubt that the Spanish
government Is alarmed more than II
has ever been before. and Is taking
every precaution.
There are reasons to believe that
there was n plot to kill Gen. Lee. and
that It was allowed to come to head
by the Spanish detectives, in order that
they might get credit for defeating 1t.
All sorts of rumors We're in circula-
ton yesterday. and there was no trou-
BILE whatever in hearing any kind of n
story and finding dozen men to swear
to its truth.
The real impression among news
paper men was that Gen. Lees with
drawal was shrewd move intended
to show Spain that the United States
means business
In the palace kilograms were shown
saying the queen regent had agreed
upon the intervention Of Russia. that
Spain would accept $3.50 100000 for Cuba,
end the war and withdraw her nag.

FLYING SQUADRON READ
No Orders Yet to Movc,but They May Come
Mt Any Moment.

Mt ANY Moment.
Fort Monroe, Va, April 10.-The fact
that this was not only Sunday, but
Easter Sunday, made no special differ
ence with the activity of those on the
flying squadron today. In addition to
the routine work on the Columbia
and Minneapolis. some of the new
pen Were drilled at the guns. and the
men ON the Brooklyn were kept bus
lily employed taking on ammunition. All
of the vessels of the squadron are now
well If not fully supplied with ammuni-
ton, despite sensational stories to the
contrary.
A conference of all the captains OF
the vessels of the fleet was held this
afternoon on the flagship, presided over
by Commodore Schley. AT its conclu-
sion that officer said that the meeting
was held for the purpose of talking In
formally over various plans for action.
1t was also said that Senator Proctor.
who Is here, and Commodore Schley
had received notice of an alleged out
break in Porto Rico. and that the
squadron expected to sail in the MORN
ing.
Commodore Schley denied that they
had received any orders to move, and
the fact that he remained ashore to-
night was further confirmation of the
denial.
Commodore Schley said he had re-
celved no orders to attach the ram Ka-
tahdin to his squadron, but she is stili
lying here. 1t is believed that she will
be left to guard the harbor.in conjunc-
ton with Fort Monroe. should the fleet
sail.

viii continue as II has been doing since
tho last three years.
There Is little doubt. however, that
strong Influences WIN now be brought
to bear to induce the Insurgents to
suspend hostilit!es, so that terms for a
complete settlement may be reached.
One of the ambassadors at Washing
ton pointed out today that the inilu-
cnce of the pope WIS relied upon to a
considerable extent with the Insurgents
as they are part OF q country which
Is thoroughly Catholic. and loyal to
Rome. While the Influence of the great
powers is not likely to be exerted in
any material way against the in
surgents. yet this influence Will be
brought to bear as far as possible from
every moral standpoint.
The influence of the United States
government viii ALSO be a very ma
terlal factor In case The present crisis
between the United 'Staes and Spain
IL averted and the armistice Is ac-
cepted In Washington MS tentative
ground for SOLUTION Of the Cuban
problem.
The attitude of Congress on the gem
eral subject IL predetermined. During
the past few days the feeling in both
houses has been intense. and II re-
mains to be seen whether the change
brought about by the armistice Will be
sufficient to allay this feeling Reso-
buttons are already prepared, but these
were framed when diplomatic nego-
tiations We're In deadlock.
Diplomatic circles in Washington
were keenly interested In the change
brought about by SPANS grant of an
armlstlce. The ambassadors and min
listers exchanged calls, and there was
general exchange of congratulations.
as 1t was felt TINT the armistice at
least gave time for calmer counsels.
The French ambassador, NJ. Cambon
received a cable dispatch from the
foreign office at Paris. informing him
that the armistice had been granted
and was wholly without conditions.
Besides seeing HIS associates of the
diplomatic corps. the ambassador saw
Archbishop Ireland. who was instru-
mental In securing the influence of the
pope, and Joined the archbishop in
expressions of satisfaction. Through
out the negotiations the French am
bassador and the French government
has taken a leading part in avertlng
an open rupt,ire between the United
States and Spain.
While the British government has
been most active In seeing that the
action of the movers did not assume a
menacing attitude toward the United
States, yet 1t Is known that Great
Britain Joins with the other powers
in approving the latest movement Of
an armistice, and is hopeful that this
Will clear the way for a fuller settle
ment OF the general Cuban question.

THE cnrLLIcoor HORROR.

Seattle, Wash, April 1o.--Later de-

Increase the horror OF the avalanche
on the Chilkoot pass instead of lessen

been thus far recovered and the names
of 1850 missing have been reported as
unaccounted for. 1t Is barely possible
that some OF these had succeeded In
crossing the pass before the avalanche
occurred. A conservative estimate Is
that between seventy-five and 100 per-
some were killed. The following is tho

Washington, April 10.-Senor Que
sada, the diplomatic representative of
the Cuban insurgents in this city, when
asked today what he thought of the
Spanish armistice. said:
1t is only a Spanish trick. They
want to put us before the American
people In the attitude of being unreal
sonnble. But we do not believe the
American people viii so consider us.
for we think they know 1t is a last
effort to force some kind of Spanish
home-rule on us. We have fought three
years for independence; we know this
Is Spanish trick and we will not give
