TOLERE DIXIE SOLDIERS
in the Army of Invasion if War
Conies.
Richmond, Va„ April 19.
General Fitzhugh Lee was asked
last night if he anticipated being
made a major general in the
United States army.
U 1 was tl)6 laconic r©*
ply, “I will certainly have some
general office tendered me.”
“Has the president assured
you of this?" was asked.
•‘I can’t say as to that point,”
was his reply. “The president
and I have li.id some conversa
tion.”
“Is it true that Assistant Sec
retary of the Navy Roosevelt lias
requested vou to appoint him
on your staff?" asked the report
er.
“I see a New York paper says
so,” answered the general, shov
ing the paper over to the report-
er.
“That does not answer the
question," ventured the scribe
“Well, Mr. Roosevelt has
spoken to me about a st; ts ap
pointment,” said Gsneral Lee.
“Will y>u appoint him?”
asked the reporter.
“There's where quien sabe
comes in—that’s Spanish for
‘who knows,’ ” answered the
general.
Don’t you think that Cuba
will prove unhealthy for the
soldiers of this country who go
thereto drive the Spaniards
out?”
“Not especially so, if they
keep under cover at night. The
dews will be most dangerous for
them, and these they can easily
avoid.”
“I suppose the soldiers of an
invasion of Cuba will be select
ed from ainoqg the soldiers of
Die extreme South.”
‘Not at all,” replied General
Lee. “As I understand it the
brigades will be made up of men
from all over the union. Regi
ments from the North and South
w dl fight side by side.”
