LEE WILL elleee' He Is to Go Back to Havana as Military Commander. ARMY T0 AGGOMPANY HIM Be Talks With Secretary Alger and Gen. Corbin \‘Vill Bead the Military Com- mission.: Either Wade or Butler Will Serve With Him. Schley or Howell May Be the Naval Member. Washington, Aug. 16.——General Fitz- hugh Lee was the most conspicuous visitor at the war department yester- day. He had a. long conference with Secretary Alger, and it is' understood that it was practically settled that Gen— eral Lee is to be designated as com- manding general of this military de- partment of Cuba. The meeting between General Lee and Secretary Alger was of the most cordial nalture. General Dee disposed of all the silly stories about his dis— satisfactidn and threatened resignation, by saying that he is prepared to wherever he may be ordered, and per- form to the best of his ability any duty to which he may be assigned. It is well understood that General Lee will be a member of the joint military and naval commission which is soon to be appointed to sit at Havana, and his summons to Washington was in con— i nection with the appointment. It is probable that General Lee will head the commission, although there has been some discussion about the proprietary of placing a volunteer offi- cer at the head of the commission. The probability is that either Major Gen— eral Wade or Major General Butler will be the second man on the commission, and either Admiral Schley or Commo- dore Howell will be the naval mem- her. On high authority in this war de- partment it is said that General Lee will be commanding general of the new military department to be created in Cuba, and be at the head of the Ha- vana joint military and naval com- mission besides. GEN. FITZHUGH LEE. ' He does not attempt to conceal his gratification at the prospect of return- ing to Cuba as military governor, as he will then have an opportunity to make good .the declaration he delivered to the Spaniards as. he was leaving the harbor of Havana a few months ago. It. will bepre-membered that he served notice‘on the Dons that he would soon return with a force of American sol- diers, and, the administration proposes he shall fulfill that farewell declara- tion to the letter. ' ‘ SICK SOLDIERS COMING. Relief and Olivette Northward Bound, Health of the Armies. Washington, Aug. 16.——Surgelon Gen- eral Sternberg has received dispatches from Cuba. and Porto-Rico relative to the condition of the troops in those is- lands. Surgeon Torney cables from Ponce that the Relief will sail for May- aguez to-day and will arrive in New York about Friday morning. She had on board about twenty wounded and fifty convalescents. There were.185 cases of fever, mostly typhoid. Sur- geon Greenleaf cables from Ponce that the typhoid cases are decreasing, and that there were no new cases on Satur- day. The general health of the com- mand is improving. Surgeon Havard cables from Santiago that the Olivette sailed yesterday with 200 non—infected patients. She will touch at Fort Monroe for instructions, and probably will be ordered to contin- ue to Mon-tank Point. ' -. Ambassador Hny’s Promotion. London, Aug. 16.——The afternoon pa.- pers without exception express regret at the probable return of Ambassador Hay to the United States to succeed Secretary Day, and the hope that he will see his way clear to decline the appéin'tment to the secretaryshlp of state, as it would be a “pity to inter- rupt an ambassad-ori-al career promising great results for ‘the future of the two nations.” The Westminster, Gazette says: "While an American. before all, none could have workedmore effectually to foster the growing Anglo-American set- tlement. The recall of Colonel Hay, while a. gain to his; countryywould be no slight loss of ours." The Texas. in Trim. Brooklyn, Aug. 16.-‘Freshly painted, and looking as trim and neat as if she had only just gone into commission, the United States battleship Texas awaits a favorable tide to be floated out of the dry dock at the navy yard. The needed rep-airs to her hull, super- structure and machinery have been completed under the watchful super— vision of Naval Constructor Bowles, and, if anything, the war vessel is st-auncher and even more formidable than ever. All Cuban l’orts Open. Washington, Aug. 16.-—The treasury department has issued an order direct- ing- collectors of customs 'to clear ves- sels to all ports in Cuba and Porto Rico in the same manner as before the commencement of hostilities between Spain and the Uni-ted States. The trade between the United States and Porto Rico,.however, is restricted to Ameri- can vessels. v‘—a ”l ROUGH RIDERS LAND AT MONTAUK Gen. Wheeler and Col R'uosevelt 'Receive ‘ a Hearty Welcome. Camp VVik'off, Aug. 16.—-Colone1 The- odore Roosevelt and the First volunteer cavalry, that: arrived aboard the tran- sport Miami, were landed Monday af- ternoon and are now in quarters. Colo— nel Rosevielt and General Joseph W'hee- ler, who was also aboard, will be sent with Ythe troops to the detention camp, where they will be kept in close quar— 'an'ttine for from three to five days, the time depending upon the condition of all. Colonel Roosevelt and General Whee- ler will not be permitted to speak with anyone from shore savte through the guard line. It was announced that they and most of the officers on board were well and strong. The Miami troops were also landed. There were several troops of Colonel Roosevelt’s rtgiment aboard. Thirty~elght of the St. Louie’s sick were landed an eleven o’clock in the morning, suffering from malarial fever and kindred diseases. They were taken in ambulance! to the detention hospital.

When the gang plank was let down, Colon-e1 Roosevelt, followed by General Wheeler, stepped down. and was met by Colonel Hecker, who shook hands with him heartily. The dock had been cleared of spectators. There were several hundred persons gathered back of the picket line and three cheers were given for both the colonel and the general. Colonel Roosevelt looked well and mid he felt so. He approach- ed the picket line and spoke a few words 'to the reporters. When he was asked to say something about his pro- posed candidacy for the governorship of New York, he laughed heartily. “I will tell you all the story of the real- ment later,” he said, “but I have noth~ ling to say about politics—mothing at all,” and he laughed again. He said the wound he received In action was a slight one and had entirely healed. A second attempt to have Colonel Roose— velt speak on the political situation drew only another laugh from him. The Rough Riders were marched on . shore in negular formation by troops, . their colors stained and faded and their iregimen-tal band playing. They-looked gill; many of them could hardly walk. lTroops C and E were the first off. They were given cheer aft-er cheer and . acknowledged the ovation gallantly. : The transport St. Paul arrived at 8.45 ‘ o’clock yesteeday morning and is lying fat anchor threr miles off shore.” On ' board the St. Paul ,were a part ofthe - Seventy—first regiment and the Second regiment of United Statesinfantry. I WILL USESPANISH MONEY. ' Congress Must Decide Wtht Kind. of Coin Will Be Used in Cubs. Washington, Aug. 15.--"We will I be compel-led to await the reassembling of Congress,” said Secretary Gage'yester— day, “before determining anything defi- nitely in regard to the money to be used in Cuba and Porto Rico. ,l. Meanwhile Spanish money will be the current coin until some legislation can be taken by Congress in the matter. Various plans and suggestions ,have been made to the president and treas- ury department in regard to, thismat- Iter, but none of them can be adopted until the law is changed to meet the changed conditions now existing in Cu— be and Porto Rico. ' A recommendation on the subject will be sent to Congress as speedily as possible, but until some action is taken by that body American moneywill naturally be at a premium in Porto Rico and Cuba. Eight Spanish Vessels Sunk at Cardenas. Key West, Fla, Aug. 16.--Among the vessels which arrived last night from the Cuban coast are the torpedo boats McKee and Cushing, both from Carde- nazs, having received word that the blockade had been raised. ' They report having destroyed eight Spanish vessels at Cardenas last Sun- day. ... » -—.- . These small boats had been engaged in carrying supplies to the Spaniards between Cardenas and Santa Clara. That traffic is now stopped. No attempt was made by the shore batteries to protect the vessels from destruction by the torpedo boats. Several small Spanish gunboats were of Cardenas, but they refused to come out or make a demonstration. The McKee captured the schooner Flora off Cardenas, but released her, as there was no evidenCe to shaw that she had broken the blockade. The Cushing reports that she met the schooner Dellie, which left here in com- pany with the schooner Adonis several days since with supplies for the insur- gents. The Del-lie had landed her cargo near Key Francis. . Three Counterfeiters Arrested. Washington, Aug. 16.——-Chief Wilkie of the treasury secret Service has re- ceived news of the arrest on Saturday _ last of Charles VanderbruSh, Wallace Davenport and Sanford Dunn, who have been passing counterfeit quarters and half dollars in Newark and other parts of northern New Jersey. The chief sent a subordinate into that neighborhood about two Weeks ago, who soon located the counterfei‘ters’ se- cret headquarters in the hills near Sparta, Sussex county, New Jersey. The detective went up into the hills himself and lived there till he had run his game down and captured them. From all appearances their arrest puts an end to the gang in that part of the country. State to Buy Camp Black. Hempstead, L. 1., Aug. 16.--It is - learned here on good authority that the state of New York. is making efforts ' to buy the land now occupied by the (:3an for use as a state camp. George Hubbel, who is the agent for the heirs of A. T. Stewart, who own the property, said that he hoped to dispose of the land to the state It is learned that.
