FITZHUGH LEE IS
 WELCOMED IN HAVANA
Everywhere the Ex-ConsuI General
 Receives Great Ova-

HAVANA, Dec. 14.-General Lees pres- ence has provocated numerous demonstra- tions, though he has tried to avoid them. He ate lunch to-day at the Hotel Trocha with Generals Wade, Greene and Clous, and leaving there this afternoon he passed with his escort through Carro, a suburb of Havana, where the ladies waved American flags and threw flowers. The crowds along his route cheered enthusi- astically At Marianao his reception was equally enthusiastic.
 La Lucha announces that General Lee proposes to treat Cubans, Spaniards and all other nationalities with equal justice. This has produced great reaction among Spanish residents favorable to General Lee, the hope being everywhere expressed that he will act up to La Lucha's asser- tionS.

The point of law involved is whether a person can accumulate prop erty by his own crime. The case attracts unusual attention, as it is the first of the kind in California.

Continued from second Page.

Much of the recent legislation in
Europe looking to the increase of gold
holdings and the depreciation Of silver
finds its origin in the eXigencies of a
situation where readiness for war is
the paramount necessity. There is
hardly a statesman in Europe who be-
lieves the last word has yet been said
upon the question of the remonetiZa
ton OF silver, and hardly one who
would not
WELCOME AN EFFORT
to settle the question Internationally.
Only few days ago, Just before Christ
mas in debate in the French cham
Der, NJ. Meiine again declared from
the Tribune that the French govern
ment was at one with the United
States on the question of bimetallism.
In the face OF such a declaration it is
as cowardly to abandon hope as it is
false to talk about failure. lnterna-
tional bimetallism is to the gold mon
ometallists a stumbling block and to
the silver monometallists foolishness,
but it is nevertheless a splendid posi-
bility; it's accomplishment would be
the greatest blessing that could befall
our people, and to achieve it we might
well afford to sink for the time the
nostilities of party and tho chickering's

senator Faulkner is very anxious that
a date should be arranged for the nre-
sentation of the statue Of the late Sem
: ator Kenna to the United States gov
arnment and its formal unwilling and
dedication, but he will not proceed in
the matter until the commission an
pointed by the West Virginia legisla
ture shall have first assembled here
and inspected the statue and accepted
it If they find that the work of Sculn-
tor Doyle is satisfactory. The Sena-
tor has been In communication of late
with Ex-Governor MacCorkle on the
subject, but has not been able to ar
range matters on a definite basis so
Tar. One difficulty is that there is
doubt as to how the commission was
originally constituted. MacCorkle was
then in the Governors chair, and was
MADE chairman Of the commission, but
whether in his capacity as chief exec
utiVe of the State or personally as
friend of the deceased Senator seems
in doubt. If the former was the case,
then he is no longer a member of the
commission, but has been succeeded
by Governor Atkinson, and the duty
of calling the commission together de-
wolves on the latter. But this point is
unsettled, and until it is cleared up
nothing will be done. Senator Faux
ner will not make any arrangements
for the unveiling of the statue until it
has been viewed and accepted by the
commission. That much is settled.
