Committee Notified This Merning- His Friends Approve ~ His Course. Gen. Fitzhugh Lee declined the honor aff the proposed reception tendered him whe the committee waited upon him this morn= ing at 10:30 o'clock in the banquet hall of the Shoreham Hotel. As was stated ta The Star, when waited upon by the com> mittee yesterday he asked until this morns ing to give his decision, as he wished te consider it in all its phases. He rose about § o'clock this morning an@ looked over his mail, which, as may be imagined, has grown to immense propor tions. The general does not care to have a private secretary. He prefers to look at his mail himself. Sometimes his son, Fitzhugh Lee, jr., assists him, but it is enly on special occasions. The general picks out the letters which seem to be of an official nature first, and opens and reads them. He had partially finished this task this morning and was at breakfast when the committee, headed by Col. Robert I. Fleming, called. The gen- eral took a seat, and the members of the committee gathered about him. He started his speech of declination in @ char- acteristic manner. “Look here, boys,” he said in a mattere cf-fact tone, “I haven't done a thing that either one of you, or any American citizen, would not Have done, and I don’t see why there should be any fuss made t it.” “There was a lot of fuss about it the other night, general,” one of the commit- tee said, “and you wore right in the mid- dle of it. “I couldn't help thai,” said the general. “I couldn't well get way from it. It was urexpected, and I appreciated it highiy. I think that once is enough, though. Now, I don’t want you to think I'm ungrateful, for I am not. I know it seems that wif to you gentlemen, but I have studied over the matter and I feel satisfied that ft would be better not to have the reception. I don’t want for an instant anybody to think that I wish to put myself forward, and I must decline your most kind offer.” . Suggestion of Later Date. It was suggesied to him that, if war should come and he should be appointed te a corsmand, it would be a good thing to give the reception after this appoint- ment had been made, and that there then could be no reason for his imagining that he was putting htmself forward. One of Gen. Lee's most intimaie friends said that one reason for his not wanting the reception was that he recognized the fact that he occupied an official position and felt a hesitancy in accepting any for- mal demonstration on this account. An- other reason was that he regarded the one which hac taken place as more than Fuf- ficient. Gen. Lee chatted with the members of the committee for some minutes aad then met several Virginia friends who had ed at the hotel to see him. He finaliy went up to his room, accompanied by Consul Barker, with whom he remained closeted some time. In the meantime Senator I jel of Virginia had called at the “hotel to see the consul general, but, after waiting a few minutes, left word that he would meet him later. After some time the gen- eral went up w the War Department. Believes There Will Be War. Gen. Lee is strongly of the opinion that there will be war. “The Spanish in Cuba do not really want to fight,” he said. Then he told of an incident, in proof of this, which had come under his personal observation, at Sagua la Grande. Gen. Gomez came into the town one day at the head of about 200 insurg®nts, and finally left for a little village about six miles away. An hour or so after Gen. Gomez had taken his departure, after having stated explicitly where he was going, Gen. Velasquez of the Spanish army led a regi- ment into the town. He inquired if Gen. Gomez had been there; was told he had, where he had gone and how he could be intercepted. Though having several times as many men at his disposal as General Gomez, the Spanish general did not follow up his advantage. and left. These tactics are pursued on all occasions. Admires Consol Barker. General Lee has a warm admiration for Consul Barker, and told how, when he left the isiand, he took the Winchester rifle which was his constant companion when he had any dealings with Spanish officials, Wrapped it in an American flag and sent it to General Gomez. The members of the committee which visited General Lee to ask him to approve the proposition to have the reception not disappointed at his refusal. As a m ter of fact, severa! of them are of the same opinion as the general on the subject. They realize now that, as he thinks, under the circumstances it would be better not to have it. ~ = DAVIDSON—LIPSCOMB. On Wednesday, April 3, 2 by the Rev. C. 0, 1898, a 0 p.m., .
