The Current Demonstrations in the Cuban CapU
, tal Thought to Have " Been" Based on Orders
; Sent to the Marblehead.
Hvashingtop, Jan. ' 11. Three telegrams
from Consul General Lee -gave assurances
to the president today that the tumult in
Havana had quie ted, but did" not change the
feeling that a. crisis Is imminent In ..Cuban
affairs.-' I Only one , telegram had been tre
celved from General Lee when- the, cabinet
met.' This was dated midnight and told of
crowds l-. parading the , streets, r shouting
.''Down with autonomj." 'Nothing' serious
had occurred however and .General Lee
was not apprehensive of any immediate re
newal of rioting., Eearly in the afternoon
a second despatch came, telling of the tem
porary restoration of order, and just be
fore the etate department closed for., the
day, third message was received. This
last- telegram-was timed noon, and said
that everything" ;was quiet In Havana at
that hour, -.,'-'
It t apparent from the discussioo at the
cabinet meeting-that 'the president and his
adviser? think it " best to await; develop
ments .before taking any" steps to-" protect
ArAerJcaninteres.ts inthe,-Cuban capital.
They deeided it to" be-' Inadvisable to end a
warship- there until Lee requests- it r"T
' . .The president and his executive officers
have no means of knowing, but they are
satisfied that - the current demonstrations
are based ' on some orders-issued yester
day to .Commander McCalla :of . ,the cruiser

ternoon Captain Sigsbee,- of the battleship
Maine, senior officer at Key West, tele
graphed.that jthe Detroit had been Edgntsd.

ately; directing the Marblehead to sail. .
If Lee asks for a warship the" Detroit;
