Two Regiments of Volunteers March
Through Havana.

Havana, Dec. 12.-The Two Hundred
and Second New York regiment began
to land at o'clock this morning, and
at o'clock a column about 1000 strong
marched from the San Jose wharf to
the Christina railway station. The
troops were led by Colonel Seyburn and
Major Abbott, the regimental band
playing simple marching airs The
color sergeants bore the stars and
stripes and the blue and gold banner
of the state of New York.
The route, which was a mile and a.
half long, was the most direct course
from the landing place to the railroad
station, and did not pass through the
principal streets, and it was only oc-
casionally that cries of viva Spanola,
viva Americanos," or viva Cuba, IL
bre" were heard. The onlookers were
mostly silent, and were only curious to
see the American soldiers.
The regiment arrived at the railway
station at 1890 o'clock, and, after some
delay two trains loaded with troops
pulled out of the depot Some of the
troops belonging to this detachment
are bound for the city of Pinar del
Rio, about 118 miles from here The
others will be stationed at Guanajay

bound for the city of Pinar del Rio are
due to arrive there at o'clock this
evening.
The First North Carolina regiment,
which arrived here yesterday morning
on the United States transport Rou-
manian, disembarked this morning and
marched through the city with band
and colors to camp at Marianao. By
the time the regiment had coached the
suburb of Cerro, many hundreds of
men, women and children were follow
ing, all showing deep emotion, the men
embracing one another, the women
weeping from excessive pleasure, and
the children shouting endearing names
as the North Carolina soldiers marched
along. The troops were amazed at the
intensity of feeling, displayed. Several
hundred Cubans followed the regiment
all the way to Marianao, a distance of
seven miles. The troops, in heavy
marching order, made a fine appear
ance, reaching the camp about II
o'clock this morning, where they were
soon comfortably installed.

that the riot of last night was pro-

he issued directions this morning for
their arrest. Intelligence Of the cap
tain generals purpose reached San
gully and Lacret and they promptly
appealed to the British consulate and
to the American officers for protection.
DR.. Jerome, the British consul, re-
quested the captain general not to
carry out the order of arrest. General

Hotel Ongleterra when the Spanish
officers and Cubans began fighting.
