HONORS TO GEN. GARCIA.
Enthusiastic Reception to the Cuban
Leader Mt Santiago.

A dispatch from Santiago de Cuba yes
terday says great enthusiasm marked the
popular celebration over General Garcia S
arrival in Santiago. AT o'clock in the
morning General Wood, with part of Cen
eral I.awton's staff and several American
officers, met General Garcia outside the
city limits and escorted him into the town.
Garcia was accompanied by his staff, his
son, Col. CaliXto Garcia, many Cuban oft-
GERS who have recently come to Santiago
and 200 Cuban cavalry.
The streets through which the party pass
ed were throrged with cheering people.
Probably 10000 persons were crowded into
the plaza in trent Of the palace, where
Garcia dismounted. He was met at the
door by General Lawton, and an informal
reception by the American officers was held
in the audience room.
At night another reception was rendered
General Garcia at the San Carlos Club,
which was thronged with prominent Gu
bans, American officers end ladies. The
plaza was brilliantly lighted and decora ted
with flags, and music was furnished by the
band of the 9Th Infantry. The Americans
wore dress uniforms and General Garcia
and his officers wore white uniforms and
high boots.
General Garcia will remain in Santiago
for several days.

campaign upon state issues only they are
as far apart upon other subjects as ever.
Much has been made of the conference
between Mr.. Hill and Mr.. Mclaughlin, the
Mr.. Hill invariably visits Mr.. Mclaughlin
every year. This summer the two men
kept wide apart until this week. Finally
they arranged a meeting, and Mr.. Nc
Laughlin explained to Mr.. Hill that Brook
lyn was now merely a ward in eastern
New York. and that Kings county, for rea-
sons of local patronage, could not afford
to quarrel with Tammany Hall. Kings
county would undoubtedly hold the bal
ance of power in the Syracuse convention,
but Mr.. Mclaughlin was doubtful whether
he personally held the balance of power
in Kings county. Mr. Hill is said to have
bowed to the inevitable, submitted grace
fully to the statements of the situation
made by Mr.. Mclaughlin, and acknowl
edged his inability to control the Syracuse
convention without the assistance of Mr..
Mclaughlin. One thing Mr. Mclaughlin
is said to have promised Mr.. Hill is that
Mayor Van Wyck would not be the nom-
nee of the rext democratic convention.
The Van Wyck Boom.
The Van Wyck boom, the practical i'm
possibility of Danforth, Hills candidate,
gathering in the plum, the failure Of John
B. Stanchfield of Elmira to support Bryan,
the fact that Judge Titus of Erie has a
record of alleged undue friendiness to cor
porations, the great age of Judge Earl of
Herlimer, has left the democrats extreme
ly hard pressed for a candidate. All the
leaders agree in saying that the candidate
will not be selected before the gathering of
the delegates at Syracuse next week. 1t is
possible that some nonentity will be
lected.
George Keeney, the president of the Ma
tional League Of Silver Clubs, and editor
of the National Inteligencer, is in the city,
and will attend the Syracuse convention in
the interest of Congressman Sulzer or some
out-and-out Bryanite. Mr.. Keeney takes
the view point that failure to indorse the
Chicago platform will place the democrats
outside the ''breastworks.' He is of the
opinion that the democrats of the south
and west would favor the admission into
the next national democratic convention of
a delegation of Chicago platform democrats
who bolt the nominations at Syracuse next
week. The recent interview of Governor
Stone of Missouri upon the subject of in
dorsing the party platform, and the posi-
bilities of the regularity of the New York
state democracy being called in question in
the event of failure to do this has been
widely circulated, and it has undoubtedly
had the effect of frightening some of the
upstate democratic leaders.

HnVana's Floating DRY Dock

The naval officials have had their atten-
ton drawn to the Importance of securing
in good condition the fine floating dry dock
which was tcwed to Havana and placed in
the harbor there just before the outbreak
of hosulities. This dock is large enough
for any of our battle ships, and the naval
officers are putting forth efforts to pre-
vent the military commission at Havana
from allowing it to be taken away, holding
that as it is not automobile it would not
fall subject to the same rule as that by
which the American commissioners in
Porto Rico allowed the Spanish torpedo de-
stroyer and three smaller craft to leave
San Juan for Spain.
