Names dead has been presented by
Gen. Blanco and the bishop of Havana,
IN the beautiful cemetery of Havana
The most sympathy and respect has
been shown. 1 am informed by the au-
thorities that this is the second instance
only of such a demonstration having
been shown to foreigners in the history
OF Havana It is incOnceivable that a
greater demonstration could have been
made to me personally. A great number
of people have expressed sympathy for
the Maine and for the United States
government and people. The remainder
OF the dead, must, perfOrce, be buried
with brief ceremony, which will be con-
Quoted by ourselves, but the care and
preparation of the remains will be with
Spanish authorities. About 40 in ad-
ditiOn to those buried have come ashore
today. Very few are now recognizab BILE.
Even in the case of some of those who
are hurt, but live recognition was dIfh-
cult. I have not for a moment lost
sight of the grief of the families and
friends of the members of my crew, but
I beg the department to explain to them
that it is iInpracticable in fact impossi-
bic, to send the bodies home. Facili
ties are lacking, and embalming is nee
eSSary to secure shipment even under
the most favorable circumstances. En-
balming is only imperfectly done here
Will wire all cases of identification. L
maintain organization among my small
force here, but it can be well understood
which we are charged, is one of much
detail and difficult of execution. 1t is

kilograms have reached US. I am deep
Iy grateful for the helpful sentiments
and directions teIegraphed by the pres
ident and the department. I have the
earnest help of all the officers of the
Maine here, which was to be expected
under all circumstances. A previous
telegram sent today gives the names of
those buried by the Spanish authorities.
The flags of all vessels, naval and mer-
chant, in Havana harbor, have been at

nation, but it could be for a short time
only 1t is my belief that within a
year both Cuba and Spain will be re-
publics.
After the first wave of enthusiasm
which would be occasioned by war with
the United States had subsided, all the
present and the then aggravated evils
existing in Spain would be charged to
the account of the present reigning
family, and Carlists and Republicans
would unite against it in a great civil
war, which would finally give the Re
publicans control, as they are more
numerous than the Carlists, and in the
end the present mOnarehists would fa-
Vor the Republicans. Madrid, BarcelO-
ma. ZaragOsa, Cadiz, Seville, and many
other Spanish cities are Republican, and
have several times elected, in each and
every district, Republicans to the Span
lsh cOrtes- After every Republican tri-
umph at the polls, the papers of that
party have openly address editorials to
the queen regent, demanding in such
language as Take the northern ex-

TEE FUNERAL.
All Havana Joins in Honoring the
Martyrs of the Maine.

Havana, Feb. 1S-The interment of
the martyrs of the Maine took place
Shortly before the hour all Havana was
in mourning. The flags on the public
buildings were at half mast and many
of the houses were draped in mourning.
All classes were represented in the
throngs that filled the streets along
which the funeral procession passed to
the cemetery.
The order of the procession was as
follows:
The municipal guards on horseback,
in full uniform; the city fire brigade;
the municipal employees, the the alder
men IN seven SplendidIy draped fire
mems cars. Special cars bearing the
remains; nine bodies being carried on
splendidly decorated car; the clergy,
deputations consisting of the chief Of
1cers of the army, navy, and volunteers,
representatives of various official bu-
reauS and of the custom house, a COM
mittee representing the chamber of
commerce; delegation representing
the grOcers, the council of adminiStra-
tion, representatives of the treasury, the
press and various political organiza-
t1OnS; then the chief officers of the
Maine, the representatives of foreign
governments, the city magistrates with
their mace bearers, provincial deputies,
employees of the general and regional
autonomatic governments, the munich
pal mace bearers then General Parade,
with four aides de camp, representing
General Blanco, (whose personal pres
J,
having on his right United States Con-
sui General Lee and on his left the
mayor of Havana, the Marquis Larrin-
aga, Admiral MOnterOla, General Solamo
and other officers, two companies of
marine and infantry.
The funeral music was furnished by
the bands of the Isabella La Catolica
and Porto Rico battaliOns, which ac-
companied the bodies.
The funeral cOrtege started from the
principal entrance of the city hall on
Weyler street, then turned to the right
on Moricadoes 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 profound
est respect.
The collins were covered with beauti-
full crowns of silk ribbons, with appro-
