When called upon 10y a reporter yes
terday General Lee excused himself from
discussing politics. When asked what ne
thought of the situation in the Philippines
he replied: .The United States troops
cannot be removed from those islands
under fire" He would not express him
self concerning the situation in the far

General Lee approves of the course that
is being pursued by the Administration.
Asked about the situation in Cuba he
said:
The Constitutional Convention will be
held in November. Everything in con-
nection with It IS problematical and
experimental. If the Cubans can frame
a constitution and prove their ability to
govern themselves. so wei and so good
but If they can't do this for themselves
well, somebody will have to do it for
them
General Lee is looking the picture of
health. Many old friends called to
seq him yesterday.

GALVESTON. Ten, Sept. 21.-To-day
the conditions at Galveston continue to
rapidly improve Every one is SO busy
that there Is little time 10 mourn over the
losses. This doubtless fortunate for the
sufferers for instead of spending their
time in grieving they forget their troubles
and lend 4 helping hand toward the bet
terment of existing conditions
The number of patients in the various
hospitals is much smaller than would
have been expected. considering the num-
Der of dead. This is due to the fact that
few who were entirely helpless succeed
ed in escaping alive. There are several
hundred persons who were more or less
bruised but their wounds are rapidly heal
ing.
rha general health OF the city. according
10 Dr. Wilkinson is better than under nor
NAL conditions. The number OF people
leaving the city is decreasing and there
is no longer any necessity for sick and
injured to go elsewhere for medical at
tention.

rived over the temporary bridge. Trains

A. T. Barbee, with whom she is stopping
went to North Carolina when he knew
about the affair, and meant TO carry her
to Massey, if she wanted TO CO. she
didn't.
Nov, he said, you see. she is under
nv protection and doesn't want to live
with Massey. That being the case, there
are not enough men in Suffolk TO take her,
unless they walk over my dead body.
He LOVED HIS WIFE.
Before leaving town the young bride
groom said he loved his wife, and believed
that she loved him. He thinks her present
attitude is dictated by outside influence.
Massey says when her father came to
take her from him the girl assured him
that she realized her position and was
willing to risk her existence as his life
partner.
Since the marriage there was an unsuc-
cessful attempt to get an interview with
Mrs Massey at church. but relatives in
terfared. claiming that it was in accord
ance with her wishes. Massey says his
friends volunteered to take the girl by
force and possibly do violence, but he had
begged them not TO.
The affair caused much excitement in
Berea Church. The girls father was one
Of the leading members. the girl herself
sang, and one of Massey's sisters was the
organist.
The young lady's relatives will probably
try to prosecute some one. because of the
fact that the girl was issued a marriage
license at fourteen years of age. They
will likely institute one or more damage
suits. and may seek divorce after a
while.
Mr. Massey. who is a road supervisor In
Durham county says his life has not been
the same since the marriage and resulting
troubles. He is seemingly very fond OF
his child wife. and he longs for the day
when he can claim his own.
