GOMEZ IN HAVANA.
The Caban General Received With MIL
tary Honors.


Havana. Feb. 27.--The festivities
today in honor Of the fourth anniver-
ssry of the beginning OF the Cuban
struggle for independence were most
spontaneous and wildly enthusiastic.
General Gomez arrived on the edGa
of the town from Mariana at 1880 P-
NJ, escorted by the Second Illinsds
band and three battalions These bod
talions then returned to their camp
and did not enter the city.
When 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 Gem
trail Park and arriving at $3.50 O'Clock
ct the palace.
There were many floats expressing
the friendship between the United
States and Cuba. A handsome car
riage, containing ladies. and decorated
with large Spanish, American and Gu
ban flags, draped together with white
ribbons and bearing the legend,
Unity, Peace and Concord" was vo-
ciferously cheered. Still another float
represented Cuban woman holding an
American flag, with the shattered
crown of Spain at her feet.
No fewer than 25, 600 people were in
line, requiring three hours to pass
given point. The horses of the Cuban
cavalry are scrawny and ill-fed, and
the cavalrymen are clad in vague Gu
ban uniioi ms. All carried Remington
car bines, with nondescript bundles Of
clothing and bedding. They marched
in lines Of twos. The infantry occa.
sionally kept step. and as they passed
the palace, presented arms. Most Of
them carried Cuban flags stuck in THEN
ri fies.

DIscredIted I'm washine.on.

Washington, Feb. 28.--The govern
ment officials here discredit the state-
ment in the above dispatch that the
foreign warships are disem barking
troops at Manila. Spanish sources Of
information, respecting affairs in the
Philippine islands, are not to be relied
upon, they say, as the press and peo-
pie OF Spain do not hesitate to circu-
late statements inimioal to the inter
ests of this country.
Such of the dispatches reaching the
war department today from General
Otis that were made public were con-
fined to routine matters. while Secre-
tary Long said tonight he had not a
word from Admiral Dewey during the
entire day. General Otis has repeat
edly stated in his dispatches to the
authorities here that he has the situa-
tion we'll in hand, and there is no rea-
son to believe he would have trouble
in keeping order at Manila. where the
cream of his troops are stationed.

Madrid. Feb. 2S.--An official dis
patch from Manila says:
"The situation here is very serious.
The foreign warships are disembarking
troops. General Rios will leave Ma
Mia and 60 to Zamboanga, island Of
Mindanao."
The government has received long
dispatch from General Rios at Manila,
but refuses to impart its contents.
The impartial. which asserts that it
is in position to know the truth Of the
situation as Manila, says:
There is constant fighting between
the Americans and the Tagalos. The
courage and stubbornness Of the latter
have caused great anxiety to the
Americans, who do not conceal their
belief that the war will be long and
desperate one. There is the greatest
alarm among foreigners in Manila, the
commanders OF the foreign warships
having decided to land forces to protect
their subjects.

Hitch In the Compromise Negotiations
Said TO Have Occurred.
Washington, Feb. 27.--It was re-
ported this morning that there has
been hitch in the progress OF the
army reorganization bill, owing to the
refusal Of the Democrats to accept the
provision of the compromise bill which
carries with it an increase in the staff
provided for in the Hull bill.
While the foregoing view was ox-
pressed at the war department, at the
capitol senators generally accepted the
compromise as foregone conclusion,
and the understanding is it will be
along the lines indicated last night.
So far there has not been any express
sion OF opinion that such bill will be
accepted, but even this will not &c
through without debate. Some sena.
tors hesitate to give up the provision
for enlistment OF native troops in the
islands. while Others indicate theil de-
termination to fight the provision ii il
should not be changed.

R.h.ls Are ne.narat..

Manila, Feb. 2s.- Last night the
rebels concentrated in such numbers
near the Chinese cemetery that General
Macarthur anticipated an attack and
asked for reinforcements. Two COM
panies of the Twenty-third regulars
were sent to Calocan. and battalion
Of the Twentieth regulars to the ceme-
teIy, at about midnight. but the expect
ed attack was not made. The rebels,
after making great noise with bugIe
calls aud yells of viva Independent
cia," and "mucho malo Americanos, "
and firing volleys, disappeared in the
woods.
II is believed their leaders are get
ting desperate. and are attempting to
force the United States troops 10 make
an attack. in the hope of breaking
through the American lines, but the
rebels are evidently unwilling to be
pacitied when facing the Americans.
1t is just possible, however, that
they may be goaded into such move
before more reinforcements arrive.

Gen. Otis Orders Residents TO Stay In
Their Homes After Seven
O'Clock at Night.

Manila, Feb. 26.--With daylight
this morning the enemy commenced
worrying tactics at various parts OF the
American line, apparently for the pur-
pose Of Withdrawing attention from
affairs In the city. An attempt was
made 10 rush through our extreme left
near Calocan, but it was promptly
checked by a hot and effective musketry
and artillery fire.
In the meantime small bodies OF
rebels, evidently some OF those engaged
last night in the cowardly work at
Tondo, spread ont between the city
and the outposts. Every available
man was sent TO drive them away, with
the result that there was desultory
firing all the morning.
From 8 until l0:40 A. NJ, the
monitor Mondanock joined the engage
ment. huIling 10-inch shells over the
American lines into bodies of the en- :
emy as indicated by the signal corps.
At IL O'Clock there were sharp en-
gagements at the Chinese cemetery
and at San Pedro Macati, almost ST.
mutaneonsly, but the artillery fire
from both positions drove the enemy
back.
From the high towers OF the city.
fires can be seen burning at different
points outside. Some OF these are
probably due TO the Mondanock's
shells.
Il is currently reported that the ma
tives have threatened to burn the Es-
colts and the walled city tonight.
Scores Of rebels have been arrested
in the Tondo district. A band OF go
rebels having two carloads OF arms and
accoutrements was captured in house.
Business is temporarily suspended.
General Otis today issued general
order directing all the inhabitants OF
Manila. until otherwise ordered, TO
confine themselves to their homes af-
ter z O'Clock In the evening. when the
streets will be cleared by the police.
The general also warns incendiaries
and says they will be severely dealt
with.
Extraordinary precautions have been
taken for the suppression of further
trouble. which is threatened to take
place in the city tonight.
Fire has burned in the Tondo dis.
trict all day.
The rebels between the city and the
outposts are being smoked cut this af-
ternoon, and driven toward the beach.
Sharpshooters at various parts OF the
line are very annoying, but otherwise
there has been no further excitement

Lieutenant Eugene s. French, COM
