' The President replied: "Your reply to O'Shaughuessy is exactly what 1 should hare wished It to be. In no j case should any oonoession of any Rind, in. detail or otherwise, be made?" * __ 1 " U talked with xm President over j the telephone when your tolegram of 11 p.m. last night was received to the effect that Oen. Huerta had acceded to the demand, but only on condition that you.sign a protoool. He repeated most emphatically his objection to any protocol or agreement He insists that the salute shall not be f^red as a matter^*! contract or with any stipulation that It be returned by us. It must be1 flred in accordance with Internationa al custom, as an apology for the fnsult offend. Qen. Huerta must trnet, that the United States will live up tc the requirements of International conrtesy In returninghlg salyto when It shall have been flred. The propoat ed protoool is especially objectionable for it le so phsased that Oen. Huerta might construe It^ps recognition of the government, whereas the President Wis Informed Gen. Huerta and the foreign governments that Oen. Huerta'a government will cot be i^cognTred. Gen. Huerta's acceptance of the demand of Admiral Mayo must be unconditional, thelle. tails can bo arranged directly with Admiral Mayo after Oen. Huerta announces that he VHl comply, with that demand. " 'Make it clear to Gen. Huerta that further negotiations are unnecessary. It Is expected that he accept at once, in order that the incident shall be closed.' "At 9 o'clock a telegram was rQr eolved from Charge O'Shaugnessy, but it was not conclusive and stated that he would call at the foreign of. fico at 6 o'clock for a final answer., "At 10 o'clock a telegram was received from Charge O'Sliauglinessy conveying Gen. Huert^ final refusal. This was communicated to the President immedltely by the telephone and he directed that a cabinet meeting be called for 10:30 o'clock tills morning. "Charge O'Shaughnessy's tfte. gram in substance follows: " 'At 5:50 p. m. I called at the foreign office and was handed a note verbal by the minister 'for foreign affairs. The note states in substance that the government of Mexico is not disposed to accede to Lhe~ unconditional demand of the government of the United States. It further states that the Mexican government Is disposed to act according to the terms of the protocol which I have transmitted to you. I informed him that so far' as this embassy Is concerned the matter is closed, and that I lm. j mediately should Inform my government that Gen. Huerta had refused definitely the demands of the government of the United States. A transrvt ?K?. ...??? ? I later." "The President arrived at Washington at S o'elock-this tnorniug."

Rome sixty miles west of Jacksonville there 1* a railroad station bearing the name of Olustee. It Is doubtful if any considerable per cent of 'travellers, when they bear the name of "the station called by Retrain-porter pr-flagmen,, know that one of the most-deadly battles of the waT^was fought there, and that in point oi numbers engaged the aggregate mss was greater "than Gettysburg and Chlckamauga. The battle of OJuBtee was the climax of an attempt on the part oY President Lincoln to restore Florida to the Union. On January IS, 18A4, President lA>ncoln directed Gen. Gynrore, then In command ol the military forces of the South Atlantic coast, to assist in constructing a*gov_ eminent in Florida on a Union basis. The late John Hay joined Gen. Gillmftre at Hilton Head^ and at the head >{ some 7,000 men. and twenty i steamers they came up ths 8t. John's .idsr. landing at Jacksonville Feb-, ruafy 7.. A few shots were flared at them by a company of Confederates, but the landing was accomplished without serious trouble. ' . ~ The next day this annyjfpgan its march into t^e heart of the State in three columns. The respective columns were commanded by Col. Jos. B. Hawlcy, of Connecticut. Col* William B. Barton and Col. Guy V. Henry. The column under Col. Hen. :y travelled faster than the ethers and waa arirm (far In artvanr>A of Ihn remainder of the force. He surprised what was knofcn as the,Milton artillery, captured come of their ammunition and supplies, and reached Baldwin on the morning of February -10. The- first serious fight of the campaign occurred ft the crossing of the South Fork of St. Mary's river, where MaJ. Robert Harrison checked him with two companies of the Second Florida cavalry. Seventeen Fed. orals were killed and wolinded in this fight. * The Florldlans lost flvo of tbeir men. On the night of the 11th of February Col. Henry had fough* his way to Lake City, where he encamped. There were but few Confederate | troops in Florida at this time, and fewer still that had ever seeh serious battle. They were commanded . by Gen. Joseph Fi^gan, a man'possessed of great courage and .good judgment, hut Inexperienced in war. Gen. BeauVtgard was .then stationed Mt Charleston, 8. C-, and Gen. Fine, gan appealed to him for help. Gen. W. M. Gardner, commanding the Confederate force of a few hundred In middle -Florida, was ordered to the assistance of Gen. Flnegan. As chance had it, Colquitt's' Georgia brigade was wlthin*reach of the scene of the impending conflict, and Gen. Beauregard ordered that splendid organisation to double.quick to Oluirtee. While these preparations were going on, Gen. Flnegan was confront. c<fby an army of about 600. Chance Rare Gen. Beauregard time to Bupply rc.enforcements. Gen. Glllmore, ' for precautionary reasons, ordered ? "TTie , Great \ Fan Finds Um > Ncy >UT IN YOl zssor to \ IRRIS, In CI J i ] I t t federate Veterans Ms army to entrench neat- Lake City and await developments. Thie delay was precisely what Gen, Beauregard wanted. His plan was to deludo the. Federals into the belief that no stejfc would be taken to asalBt the Florida troops. As a part of the plan, on the night of February 11. 18Ct, the batteries of Charleston harbor opened a terrific fire on Morris Island, the- Federal stronghold, and under this excitement the Colquitt Brigade was withdrawn from Beauregard"s thin UneB and sent to Lake City. Or. ders Were also sent to the Georgia troops unde Qen. tGeorge P. Harrison to go to the relief of Flnegan. It Is' a matteprOf interest and -satisfec. tlon that Gen. Harrison M now commander x>f the Department of Tennessee, United Confederate Veterans' Association, and resides at OpeUka, Y~ By conoentratihg this force, *nd calling-to the scene a lit the troop^ in Florida, Gen. Beauregard massed aa army of approximately 6,000 men in the vfclnlty of Lake City before the Federals were aware of his purposes. Therefore, when Gen. Seymour, in command of tfae Federals, moved from his position at St. Mark's Feb. ruary 20, he w?s confronted with a forca almopt as numerous as his own Statistics in this instance, like those trf practically *11 battles. ai% conflicting, but the Bonfederates had between 4,000 and 6,00^) men, and the Foderals between 6,500 and 6,000 In battle Olustee. However, the entrenched Confederates numbering several hundred, were not actual, ly engaged. Gen. Finegan feared that the Federals could not be tempt *-u to nuacK roe entrenchments, and after a little skirmishing for position, he ordered Gen.Colquitt to select tho point where he met the enAur at the ?pst place for deciding the issue, and that point happened to be two miles east of the railroad station of Oustee In a pine forest.
