GOMEZ IN HAVANA.
Festivities in Honor of Cuba's Fourt II
Anniversary.


Havana, Feb. 24.-The festivities to-
day in honor of the fourth anniversary
of the beginning of the Cuban strug-
gle for independence were most spon-
taneous and wildly enthusiastic. Cen
eral Gomez arrived on the edge of the
town from Marianao at 1890 p. m. es
corted by the I'd Illinois band and three
battalions. The battalions then re-
turned to their camp and did not enter
the city. General Gomez and his es-
cort came into the city in the follow
ing order:
The band of the 7th U. S. cavalry,
mounted; Company l. of the eth Z. S.
cavalry the staff of General Gomez.
with escort: General Mayia Rodriguez
and staff: General Maximo Gomez. upon
whose right was Major General Lud-
low; the members of Major General
Ludlow's staff; then a great number of
Cuban generals and officers, some
mounted and some in carriages, and
finally 1000 Cuban cavalry and infant
ry. AS General Gomez passed the crowd
went wild with Vivas, hats were flung
in the air and women showered flowers
on all sides.
The procession stopped frequently,
eventually filing into the main streets
of the city, passing Central park and
arriving at 2:30 o'clock at the palace.
At the palace the Cuban commander in
Mora, the civil governor. Mayor La
Coste, the members of the city council:
the junta patriotica: the members of
the assembly. officials of all classes and
numerous patriotic clubs.
Following the procession We're many
| private carriages filled with women
| representing the best society, some allie
| gorically dressed and others waving
| flags. There were many floats. express
| ing the friendship between the United
| States and Cuba. A handsome carriage
| containing ladies and decorated with
large Spanish, American and Cuban
| flags, draped together with white rib
bons and bearing the legend Unity.
| Peace and Corncord," was vociferously
cheered. Still another float represented a
| Cuban woman holding an American
| flag, with the shattered crown of Spain
| at her feet.
No fewer than $4,000 people were in
| line, requiring three hours to pass a
| given point. The horses of the Cuban
| cavalry are scrawny and ill-fed, and
| the caValrymen are clad in vague
| Cuban uniform. All carried Remington
carbines with nondescript bundles of
clothing and bedding. They marched
in lines of twos. The infantry occasion
ally kept step, and as they passed the
palace presented arms. Most of them
carried Cuban flags stuck in their
rifles.
After the review at the palace Cen
eral Gomez. accompanied by his staff.
proceeded to Ell Vedada to visit Gov
o"nor General Brooke. This evening he
attended the charity ball at the Tacon
theater, where the best Havana society
| was present.
| After the ball General Gomez went
to Quinto de Moinas the former resi-
| dence of the Spanish captain general
| where he will reside, with his staff and
escorts

1HE ALEXANDRIA AND WASHINGTON
TURNPIKE. AS st,t'1 III dispatch
from Richmond " the Gazette
yesterday. Acting Commonwealth
Attorney c. G. Carlin, of Alex
andris county, is in Richmond
comforting with Attorney Gene
raj Montague with reference to legisla-
ton looking to the forfeiture of the
charter of the old Alexandria and
Washington Turnpike Company. There
is an interesting fight behind this move
ment. The tracks of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, between Washington and
Alexandria, run over this turnpike. l.
is claimed that the railroad company
has violated the terms of its charter by
not keeping the turnpike in repair.
Mr.. Carln and Mr.. Montague have
agreed as to what legislation Is nece.-
ssry, nd bill will soon be offered in
tho legislature. The Pennsylvania
Railroad connects with the Richmond,
fredericksburg and Potomac, at Guam
tico. Should this act be passed and
carried into effect, it would destroy the
connection between these two roads.
The real object of the proposed legisa-
ton seems to be to force the Pennsyl-
v.nia Company to put the turnpike in
repair at cost of about $40, 900, which
the company will be forced to do if the
bill is passed.
