M'KINLEY AND LEE. rh*/ Hat* a Long Ooniultution H«(ard< Ins Cebu—The Situation CuroruHy He-Tl*«*d-PrMld*nt McKinley Deeply Impressed, and Requests Gen. Les tu Ro* turn to Cuba, Which Us Consents to Da Washington’, Sept. 20. -Gen. Fitxtmgh Lee. consul general to Cubr* had % l>ng consultation with the president tt the White House. It was the first lime Gen. Lee had seen Mr. McKinley vijnee the former's return to this country, about a fortnight ago. He saw the president by special appointment, and all visitors were excluded during the progress of the conference, sxeept Secretary Alger, who came over from the war department, and renamed until after Gen. Lee's departure. The conference was a long ane, lasting almost two hours. REVIEWED THK SITUATION. Gen. Lee earefully reviewed the situation in Cuba, and explained at length all points upon which either the president or Secretary Alger asked for information. Gen. Lee gave his own

GEN. FITZHUGH LEE, views very freely to the president, but after the interview was very retieent about the nature of the report he had made. lie said the president had Dot given him an outline of his policy. THE PRESIDENT DEEPY IMPRESSED. It is evident, however, that the president is deeply impressed with the critical character of the situation as described by Gen. Lee. as it is understood that at the conference he strongly urged Consul-General Lee to retain his office, at least for the present, and to return to Havana, at his earliest convenience. As it has been strongly intimated for several months that ex-Congressman Aldrich would succeed Gen. Lee at Havana, and that the latter would probably not return, the president's action is construed to mean that he thinks it unadvisable to make a change at thi juncture. USE S.VYS UK WILL RETURN* TO Cl’BA. Gen. Lee left here for Coviugton, Ya., but before his departure admitted that he would return to Cuba as soon as he had arranged his private affairs, probably about the middle of October. In private conversation with close personal friends, Gen. Lee has expressed himself vigorously as to the situation in Cuba, and has been very emphatic in his condemnation of some of Gen. Weylers methods. REASONS FOR INTERVENTION. English Journal Points Out Amerlcau Right*. London, Sept. 30.—The Speaker ppblishes an article dealing with the United States and Cuba, iu the concluding portion of which it sajs: “We must uot forget that America has perfectly legitimate business interests iu Cuba. The United States government can find excellent reason to intervene whenever it likes. It can not stop the supply of arms and men tc the insurgents exeept by an elaborate policing of a difficult coast, which public opinion would not stand. The policy of the insurgents has been to drain the Spanish resources. They have been successful. The Spanish defeat at Victoria de las Tunas gives Spain a shock, which, it is hoped, will cheek her drift toward bankruptcy and civil war. Her first step is to recall Gen. Weyler, a step which the irrepressible criticisms of his fellow-generals ought to facilitate. The next stwp is to arrange terms with the aid of the United States. Otherwise Spain may have greater danger to face after the meetings of congress in December, and certainly she will be less able to face \hem."
