FIZHUGH LEE IN CHICAGO.
Lectures on "Peace and War In the
United States and Cuba"-Given an
Ovation.

Chicago c, February 10.-General Fitz-
hugh Lee lectured here tonight at the
Auditorium. under the auspices Of the
National Union. a patriotic fraternal
order.
There was a large audience and the
welcome accorded General Lee was in
the nature of an ovation. His subject
was Peace and War in the United
States and Cuba"
In speaking Of the civil wa from 1861
to 1865, he gave great credit to both
sides for the valor and courage display
ed by American soldiers and outlined
the present position and intentions Of
saying that that portion of the country
had left the question Of the right of
secession of the state to be decided by
arms; that he recognized that the south
failed to make two republics grow in
this country where only one grew be-
fore, and that, therefore, it was its duty
to do everything in it's power to make
the one republic grow grander and
greater than eve before.
AS to the Spanish-American war, he
said he was satisfied very soon after his
arrival in Cuba that the Spaniards
could not quell the Cuban iusurrection
for some years and that the Cuhans
could not drive the Spanish soldiers
from the island, INT that, therefore, the
war would continue until some country
INTERVIEWED; and, as the United States
had laid down as its policy that no
other country should interfere, it was
the duty of the United States to do so.
