i 'ramp to thl- place, and until he made
his appearand the crowds could not
control their Impatience. Whenever
the general etepned to the' rear plat,
form outbursts of applause greeted him.
Before reaching Jasper, Fla.. three
telegram were received on the train
urging him to make his appearance, so
that the peonle could see him. Arriv
ing there, the local company of stat
troops and a score of Confederate vet
erans, with a wild crowd, met htm.
"A thousand welcomes to you. Gen
eral Lee, as a brave man: a thousand
welcomes to our old Confederate com
rade; ten thousands of welcomes to
you, sir, for your admirable official
course as our consul at Havana," said
one of the gray headed men. "I thank
you, sir," said tiee "for your kind ex
pressions. I thank the American peo
ple for. the commendation they hnve
shown my administration as your con
sul general at Havana. I have never
really known until today how united
the people are In sanctioning my
course."
In the afternoon he endeavored to get
some sleep, but It was impossible. The
crowds would beslese the train ami
even attempt to force the doors of the
private car In their frantic efforts to
see the popular general. One aged vet
eran said: '.'I am 62, hut nil I wan'
you to do Is to Found the bugle, anil
I will be with you, saddle and boots.
Don't put It off too long, general. He"
us go to haul down the Spanish Hag."
This sentiment was general all iilonr
the line.

Some, of them go so far us to claim
that the president's message is so war
like that their only speculation is as to

New Orleans, April 9. The steamer
Dtsteln arrived at port Kads yester
day -rom Matanzas. On . bourd were
Messrs. Curtis and' Ulchardson, of the
Kansas City Star, who represented
Kansas City In the distribution of 600
tons of relief supplies to suffering re-
concentrados. They were brutally treated
In Matanzas, being compelled to fly to
the vessel fur safety. The Spanish mob
jeered at them, spat upon them and
otherwise- insulted them, and at one
time threatened to push them bodily
Into the bay. , . .
The reply of the Spanish government
to the above was to the effect that they
would accept at once a suspension of
hostilities if applied for by the Insui
gents. Then the efforts of Oenerul
Woodford In the interest of pence are
recounted, and then the president, after
arguing at lenslh against either the
recognition of Cuban belligerency or
I Independence, and citing numerous pre
1 cedents in support of his position, con
