DISTURBANCES AT FAULT
While Mob Ruled Havana Starv-
ing Cubans Went UnsuccOred-
He Anticipates No Further In
reference With the Relief Move
ment.

The State Department was aroused to
unusual activity yesterday morning
and afternoon to meet the statements
that supplies sent from this country
TO Havana had been delayed in deiiv-
cry to the benefciaries of this great
and necessary charity. The statement
was made on the authority of the Gro
GERS and Importers Exchange of Phil
adelphia that the Spauiards had been
throwing obstacles in the way of
prompt delivery.
This was regarded as so important
matter that tka State Department
eabled Gen. Lee for an explanation Of
the stated obstructions.
The consul general replied promptly,
and from his answer the State Depart
ment published the following bulletin:
Consul General Lee wires the De-
partment of State that the delay in
the delivery of supplies brought by the
Concho week ago was due to the dis
turbances of the past few days in Ha-
vana. The Viligencia, bearing supplies
from Philadelphia, only arrived today,
and there viii be no delay in the de-
livery of her supplies, and he thinks
that there will be no difficulty here
after in landing supplies. He reports
matters quiet at 2:15 p. m. today
The most significant part of the dis
patch of Gen. Lee is that he is able
to state as matter of belief that there
will be no delay hereafter in landing
supplies.
1t has been stated also that the de-
lay is caused largely by the officious-
ness of Spanish customs officials in the
examination of consignments. This is
absolutely contrary to the agreement
between Spain and Secretary Sher-
man, by which, according to Mr.. Sher-
mans statement, all duties were to be
suspended on consignments made to
Gen. Lee for the purpose of relief and
all such consignnents are marked for
that purpose, so that there could not
have been and cannot be any cause for
delay 1e.s
Another consideration is that it will
be a benefit to the, Spaniards that
money be sent. instead of provisions
because the money must be used for
the purchase of goods in Cuba Mr.
Sherman stated to The Times some
time ago that it would be an advantage
to buy a great many things in Cuba
because they We're cheaper there. such
as coffee, tea and sugar. There are
things sorely needed. such as blankets
that can be bought best in this cOun-
try, and, in fact everything wanted ex-
cept those things specified by Mr.. Sher-
man can be obtained here at the least
cost Condensed milk. of which large
quantities are to be sent, Mr.. Sherman
said, ought to be bought here.
The State Department has been sat
isfied with the reply of Consul General
Lee that there VIII be no delay in get
ting the supplies into Havana 1t viii
require another statement from him,
however. to show how the material is
to reach the country or other cities in
Cuba. There has been no statement
yet as to whether the Spanish railway
officials win agree or have agreed 10

did not make confession to Captain
Lebrun- -Renaud, who was in charge
of the prisoner when he was publicly
degraded. The newspapers having
clarlored for an authentic declaration
on this point the government issued
note to the effect that it could not COM
ply as the making of such a declara-
ton would be tacitly countenancins
discussion of Dreyfus's sentence. 1t
was added that there were also rea-
sons for declining to make declara-
tion similar to those which determines
the government to try the prisoner in
camera.
NJ. Cavaignac was dissatisfied with
this reply and demanded in the cham
Der that Gen. Biiot, minister of war,
make more definite statement.
Gen. Billot was not present at the
opening Of the cnamber, and Prime
Minister Meline announced his inten-
tion 80 postpone the discussion of the
Interpolation 1nis called forth many
protests, but NJ. Meline continued, say
ing:
''Our policy of reconciliation has pro-
duce5 excellent results at home and
abroad. We appeal To the wisdom of
the chamber to end this exaggerated
agitation.
NJ. Cavaignac was still unappeased.
He complained of Gen. Billots silence.
and said that he (Gen. BiIloD could
not be allowed to hold aloof when the
honor of the army was attacked.
NJ aE-a,.f1,iop moved thaf tba Hicc,1c

this was rejected by a vote of 277 TO
2l9.
NJ Cavaignac again insisted that il
was imperative to dispel the doubt eX
listing in the country respecting the
guilt of Dreyfus.
NJ. Meline was. however, obdurate.
He said if the Government yielded to
Cavaignac it would be sharing in the
agitation.
NJ Cavaignac theTeupon called upon
The house to vote the immediate discus
sion of the Interpolation, upon which
NJ. Meline declared that if immediate
discussion should be voted the cabinet
would resign.
This produced a general commotion.
The members left their seats and sur
rounded the ministers, filling the floor
between the Government benches and
the Tribune and excitedly talking and
gestieulating.
Finally a motion Indefinitely adjourn
ing the Interpolation was carried by
vote Of 80 to 252, after which the house
rose.
For a long time after the adjourn
ment there were excited discussions in
the lobbies. These turned largely upon
the question of Gen. Billot's position
and the probable result if he should re-
sign.
