 JIM WILLIAMS FATALLY CUT QuarreIIed With Ivor Lewis Over
 Unpaid Board Bill. WERE DRINKING IN SALOON Lewis >SIashed His Victim About the Throat and Then Made His Escape-Wil-
 Hams Is Barely Alive.

Jim Williams, an employe of the Blr- mingham rolling mill, was cut and fatally wounded last night about g o'clock by Ivor Lewis, at Powelrs saloon, corner First avenue and Eighteenth street.
 Lewis had been boarding with Williams, and dispute arose over unpaid board bill Last night the two men were in the saloon and the matter was again brought up. Lewis drinking at the time. and was in an ugly mood. Harsh words passed and Lewis drew a pocket knife and ad- vanced on Williams. who sought to es- cape Lewis followed and made several lunges at Williams throat. producing sev- eral long gashes
 Williams was carried to his home in Ninth street, between First and Second avenues, where he was attended by phy- sicians. The wound was pronounced fatal, although at a hour last night he was still alive.
 After cutting Williams, Lewis calmly re- placed his knife in his pocket and stag gered out of the saloon and turned down First avenue. No attempt was made to intercept him, although. the saloon was crowded.
 One man called to him to stop, but he did not notice it.

distributed 800 masks the streets. A parade of the maskers was at once organ ized and was well worth seeing. As the band started out the parade gathered re- crudts from every corner and was soon swelled to many hundreds, representing every conceivable character that could be imagined.
 As the day wore on and dusk began to fall the crowd was further increased by those who were anxious to get good posi- tions for the night parade.
 By p. m. the streets were literally packed. and the windows along the line of march filled with people.
 The Night Parade
 The parade was scheduled to start at 2 D. m., sharp, but on account of trouble with the light, did not leave the royal menagerie until S:30 o'clock
 Rex Vulcan III in his royal state float preceded by his body guard, consisting of Grand Marshal E. J. McCrossin and his aides-de-camp, and Troops and Alabama National Guard, rode at the head of the long line of official floats, each of which represented beautiful scene taken from history fiction.
 The one dampening feature of the pa- rade was the poor lights. The society had gone to extra trouble and expense to guard against such thing, and secured a light which they were assured would give brilliant effect On Monday night the torches were tested and worked admiralty, but last night almost entirely failed.
 At several points where the street lights were numerous the parade presented a dazzling appearance and had it not been for the failure of the lights would have been a magnificent success t After the parade Rex and his courtiers drove to the auditorium, where the king chose his queen and participated in the royal ball.
 Southern and Phenix Clubs
 After the Rex ball the royal couple ad- journed to Southern clldb where recep- tion was rendered them. The dancing halls and parlors were crowded with the gay maskers, but the masks were soon removed and the cotillion danced until a late hour. The Phoenix club also gave a dance after the Rex ball, which was an elaborate af- fair.
 The dance was merry, and at 9 o'clock an elaborate supper was served in the din- ing rooms of the club house.
 The windup
 The revelry on the street was continued after the parade, many of the maskers among the younger element preferring that mode of celebrating.
 The ball of the three we'll known gentle men was liberally patronized. Of course it was of the free and easy variety, but on Mardi Gras everything goes, and no objec- tion was raised. There were many we'll known people in attendance who were there 'on1y to look on.'
 Thus the great Mardi Gras festivities of 1898 passed into history.
 To the undefatigable energy of the off, cers of the Carnival Society is due the suc- cess of the celebration.
 The thousands of visitors who ffocked to the city to witness the celebration were not disappointed, and many expressions of sur prise and admiration were heard on all sides.

 ease.

New York, Feb. 22-A letter has just been received by the central Cuban relief committee from the chairman of the com- mittee selected by Consul General Lee at Havana for the purpose of assisting In the disposition of relief supplies sent by the United States and donated by citizens. The committee states that American sup plies are apportioned according to the ne- cessities among local committees composed of trustworthy and competent indlviduais These local committees establish bureaus where the sufferers enroll and the com- mittees make personal investigations or the cases.

 It is announced that General Lee is avail ing himself of experienced services of the Red Cross sent to Havana by the depart ment of state, and that he is gradually turning over to Miss Barton the matter of distribution throughout the island.
 There are said to be thousands of chil- dren in the streets or gathered into wretch ed dens or so-called hospitals, in all stages of suffering that can develop from hunger, malaria and exposure. I shall attempt no description. We have seen the worst of the great gatherings, and Jointly with Gem eral Lee have decided that a hospital shall be opened at once. We have examined buildings for this purpose and decided upon one which we will commence to nt up at once. I will see General Blanco the first moment possible in order to secure his aid to make up what it is particularly needed by the multitude
 The committees letter thanks the Ameri- can people for the generous donations and tells them that their contributions have reached many who, had 1t not been for their timely aid, would be now dead and buried
