The funeral music was furnished by the

led the bodies.
The funeral cortege started from the
principal entrance of the city hall on
Weyler street then turned to the right
on Mercadores street, then up O'Reilly
street along the right side of Central
Park and finally to the right along San
Rafael street to the cemetery.
The population that lined the route gave
every indication of the profoundest re-
spect.
Very elaborate preparations had been
made for the interment of the dead. In
the morning twenty-five bodies were
brought to the city hall, where they rested
in collins covered with beautiful crowns
of silk ribbons, with Appropriate inscrip-
tions. The crown from the city council
bore the inscription: 1.-The People of Ha-
vana to the Victims of the Maine" There
was handsome crown of silk ribbons
in the Spanish national colors, with the
inscription THE Navy Department at Ha-
vana to the Victims of the Maine"
Among other tokens was an emblem
from the Havana Yacht club.
General Blanco witnessed the passing
of the funeral procession from the bal
cony of the palace. The entire ceremony
was a most impressive demonstration of
sympathy.
The divers have not yet commenced
work on the wreck.
