THE CUBAN REVOLT.
KEY WEST AND TAMPA, FLA, ALIVE
WITH ENTHUSIASM.
An Expedition of Patriots Said to BE
Ready to Start for the Ever
Faithful ISLE"
rBy telegraph TO tho Dispa.csl

New YoRx, May 3.--The Hrc'fs Key
West (Fla.) correspondent tolegraphs {:
Senior Jose Marti arrived on the Mascotte
from Tampa this afternoon. BY the time
the steamer reached her dock nearly every
residence and business-house occupied by
Cubsns was gay with bunting and Cuban
flags. Theirs is q banner of red and
white stripes. Ona triangular field OF blue
is single white star.
The red, white, and blue. which all na-
tions love as symbol OF the highest po-
htical liberty, was also freely displayed.
MARTI ENTHUSIASTICALLY GREETED.
Representatives of sixty revolutionary
lodges, carrying banners and flags, beaded
by brass band, marched TO the dock.
Narti had landed and was awaiting the
arrival of tho procession. He was sur
rounded bv thousands of enthusiasts
waving their hats and shouting, vicd
Cuba Libre."
When the procession of more than two
thousand started he marched with the
delegates who had received him. behind
u band. to the residence of Teodoro Perez,
his host. There the crowd trod over each
other for a sight or a hand-clasp from the
man in whom they have pat theirtrus for
leadership.
EMBRACING AND KrssISG.
The crowd was soon dispersed and then
the leaders embraced and kissed Marti
after tho manner of Cubans. who are a
very emotional and demonstrative people.
Marti is not very well and expects to re-
main but few days. He attended coun-
cil with the Junta, or board OF revolution
ary leaders. Addresses will be made at q
mass-meeting III jackson Square tO-Inor-
row night.
THE TAMPA PATRIOTS.
Narti addressed the largest crowd of
Cubans in Tampa last night tnat was ever
gathered there. IL was noticed that many
Spaninrds were in the audience despite n
May-Day demonstration being held IN the
Spanish Club. q,
In an Interview Marti was cautious and
guarded IN hts expressions. but he says
the time Of the uprising surprised hIm.
lie believes 1t was accelerated by Cuban
impetuOsity or Spanish astutenesS.
Full details of the uprising are still lack
ing on account of the Spanish censorship
of press and cable.

sUNcAY-oPeNING QUESTION.
It VIII Not Down-0uict Admission of
Ticket Holders Probable.

CHICAGO, May 3.-IEe sunday-opening ques-
tlon will not down. AS far as the National Com
mission Is concerned IL Is probable that the ro-
port Of the Judiciary Committee in declining TO
lake any action looking TO the OPEN
ing OF the expedition gates on Sunday
nnnlly disp0ses OF the matter. But Il 10
now said that there is strong feeling
among tue members OF the local dffectory that
the body may legally use It's discretion IN inter-
preting the agreement with the government,
whereby, IN consideration OF receiving the ep-
propriaon OF ~, SOC, 600. they were 20 close the
fair on sunday. They assume that Congress,
by entering into this agreement, recognized The
right to deal with the question and claim that
because the agreement hes teen violated by the
withholding OF part OF the appropriation they are
under no obligation to keep taeir part OF
the contract. IL now seems likely that no
further formal action viii be taken, but that IN
the course OF q few weeks tho local directory
will quietly authorize the admission on sunday
OF ticket-holders who may wander around tno
grounds and profit by the educauonai adsah-
taees OF the big show without the noise ana ec-
tiyity that Will Characterize the exercises Oh inc
other days Of the week.
