GEN. LEE WILL REMAIN,

Gen. Fitzhugh Lee is one of the de-
partmcnt commanders whose private
opinion regarding General Woods pro-
motion to the supreme command of the
island will not cause him to ask to be re-
lieved.
When seen at his headquarters at Camp
Columbia recently General Lee said
he had no expectation of being relieved
of his present command, which includes
Pinar del Rio and Havana provinces out
side of the city. General Lee feels fully
assured that the President will ultimately
retire him with a brigadier generals COM
not look for further active service out
side of Cuba. He expects to get along
we'll with General Wood, although some
of the plans attributed to the latter do
not conform with General Lees ideas.
General Lee is strongly opposed to fur
Their reduction of the American military
forces.
There is not a ripple in nv depart
ment,' he said. 1--WE are building roads,
the tobacco crop is good and everybody
has work and is too busy for political
agitation, but the moral effect of the pre-
sence of the troops is great, and do not
think the people want them withdrawn
General Lee favors letting the Cubans
hold a constitutional convention when
the census is completed, on the groun il
that Cubans will be as competent for in
dependent government then as they will
be in 10 years, but he would not with
draw American troops while the expert
ment is being tried.

I'VE have had" sa,, the Phlade.-
phia Times "thc hurricane of liquida-
ton and its sudden reduction OF
Sl00,O00,000 in the shares of less than
fifty prominent corporations, chiefly
industrial. The storm centre has been
broken, and an immense amount of

1--WE have now improved monetary

that the work of liquidation has been
accomplished they are grievously mis-
taken. The liquidation necessary to

FLULRY IN WALL STREET.

Monday was the most exciting day that
financial circles have seen in year.
In New York the Produce Exchange
Trust Company announced its suspension
in the morning, and soon afterward Henry
Allen & Co., bankers and brokers, were
forced to the wall.
The events, coupled with the depress-
ion in London, caused furry on the
floor of the New York Stock Exchange,
and holdings were sacrificed without re-
gard to their intrinsic value.

THE CHRISTMASTIDE.

Charity is the ruling thought for
the Christmastide. 1t is the founda-
ton stone of the brotherhood Of man.
He, Whose birth we mmemorate
taught peace and good will. Charity
promotes peace and good will Giving
is not the only manifestation Of charity;
in fact, giving is not always charity
There can be charity in thought and
word as well as in deed. Love thy
neighbo as hyself' is divine injunc-
tior. We cannot love our neighbor, if
we think i'll of him and speak i'll of him.
Giving may be but an outward form
Il pre- elcc. Love and sympathy be-
speak an inward grace. Gifts may be
an exI ression of love, and they may
not be. But the benevolent heart and
the sympathetic spirit, that blossom
forth in uniform courtesy and IN gen.
erous instincts, mark the true charity
that brings us nearer to God. Every
body cannot gre rich gifts, but every
body can give love and kindness and
sympathy. 1t is these noble qualities,
and not the outward show of them.
that the world most needs. The cult
walton of brotherly love will make wars
cease, will right social wrongs and
hasten on the coming ofthe millennium.
1t is the Christmastidc, let us be
charitable.

A HOT TIME IN DUBLIN.

A dispatch from Dublin under date of
December, 18th says: The announce
ment that pro Boer meeting would bo
convened to-day as protest against the
proposal of Trinity College to confer a
degree upon Joseph Chamberlain on Mon
day led to exciting scenes.
A large force of police was called out
and the troops were held in readiness.
Maud Come, who is called the the Irish
Joan of Arc" and James Connolly, we'll
known Irish Republican, drove in WACO
nette to the place appointed for the meet
ing. A large crowd was present.
Mr.. Connolly tried to speak, but was
prevented by the police. The wagonette
then made a tour of the street, the crowd
rapidly increasing, cheering for the Beers
singing God Save Ireland and well
Hang Joe Chamberlain ON Sour Apple
Tree and hurting epithets at the Queen,
the Empire and the army.
While passing Dublin Castle the occu-
pants of the wagonette waved the Trans
vaal flag defantly. The police then stop
ped the vehicle and seized the flag.
The wagonette, attended by a large
body of police, who often cleared the
streets, then drove to the rooms of the
Irish Transvaal Committee, where Michael
Davitt, William Redmond and J. O'Brien
were waiting. A meeting of about 60
persons was held. Messrs. Davitt, Red
mond and O'Bricn spoke in violent con-
domination of the war and of Mr.. Cham
berain, and declared that the latter's
visit to Ireland at such moment was
proof of his callous nature" The speak
ers urged that, should an opportunity
occur, Dublinites ought to show their de-
testation of the Colonial Secretary in I'M
mistakable fashion.
Mr.. Davitt said: 'All Irish rejoice in
the triumphs of the Beers No power in
Europe would now fear Great Britain, ex-
ccpt, perhaps, the Prince IF Monaco"
Said Mr.. Redmond: Mr.. Chamberlain
deserves not doctors, but eXecutioners.'
A resolution, proposed by Mr.. Davitt,
was carried, denouncing the war and
calling upon the powers, particularly the
United States. to take steps to insure the
independence of the Boer republics.
While Maud Come was speaking, some
body shouted reference to the Phoenix
Park murders. The chairman and Mr..
Dayitt warmly protested, urging that no
violence should be shown
The meeting closed amid tremendous
cheers, evoked by a rumor that the En-
glish at Ladysmith had surrendered.
Maud Come and Mr.. Connolly drove off
with the intention of holding open-air
meetings, but the police arrested Mr..
Connolly, and thus blocked the plan.
