rique, Barges, Ferderica Ochando
Miguel Melquiso, Marinues, Ahumaa,

The entire city was brilliantly Deco
rated in honor of the occasion and the
bay was q splendid sight all the wal
ships and merchant craft present be-
ing decorated with bunting. Gen.
Weyler was welcomed by the city
council on board the Alfonzo XIII.
He was presented with an address OF
welcome and an assurance of loyalty.
At ii O'Clock the captain general came
ashore and ' as received by Gen. Marin
and staff. The streets were packed
with people who displayed the great
est enthusiasm.
The German warships which are
here saluted the arrival of Gen. Wey-
Ter as did all the Spanish warships in
the port and the forts ashore.
Accompanying Gen. Weyler were
Capts. Gelaber and Linares, who are
known as military editors" They
will most likely have charge of the
press censorship here and it fs already
rumored there will be cons iderably
more difficulty experienced in this
connection by correspondents in the
future. By this it is not ment that
Gen. Weyler intends to interfere with
the proper liberty which the press can
be allowed at war time. It really
means only that he will do everything
possible to prevent the sending out
from here Of news which is undoubt-
eddy false. So far AS the general sit
uation is concerned there is not much
change. General Weyler will first de-
vote himself to q complete review Of
the operations already undertaken
and he will then figure out the situs-
ton as 1t actually exists.
