PRESIDENT GIVES A
SPLENDID DINNER PARTY

WASHINGTON. Oct 3-President Nc
Kinley. in honor OF Admiral Dewey. to-
night gave the largest dinner party in the
history OF White House social functions.
Covers were laid for over eighty persons.
The guests included the Cabinet, the Gov
ernors Of nine States, Justices Of the Su-
preme Court. some Of the members of
both houses OF Congress. army and navy
officials and others. II was brilliant
affair
An hour before the time set large
crowd had gathered in front OF the White
House to watch the arrivals.
Admiral Dewey came al o'clock, and
a. he passed inside with Flag Lieutenant
Brumby and Flag Secretary Caldwell the
Rear Admiral Schley was given similar
ovation. The guests passed into the East
room, whence they proceeded TO the
White House corridor, which served as
the state dining-room. the usual room
being too small for the purpose. The
corridor was decorated.
In the center Of the table was a large
cut glass vase filed with dark red meteor
roses set IN a mound Of Farleyenese ferns
At intervals on either side were six large
mounds Of pineapple plants in fruit. set
in begonias, the flowers interspersed with
the broad green-leaTed bilbergia Splen-
denes q native plant of the Sandwich Isl
ands. Between these were other vases
filed with meteor roses standing in beds
OF orchids, making in all thirteen pieces,
one for each OF the original thirteen
States OF the Union. The mantels were
banked with cut flowers and the walls
and doorways were hung with asparagus
vines. On a large colored glass screen
back OF the Presidents chair hung the
Presidents flag, and on the opposite side
of the table, TO the rear of Dewey's seat
was the four-starred blue flag OF the ad-
rniral OF the navy. At the east end Of the
table and over the door leading into the
east room. where Secretary Long sat. was
the flag of the Secretary OF the Navy. and
over the west end hung the flag OF the
Secretary of War.
The red and blue parlors were effectively
decorated with plants. The decoration of
the east room was unique and consisted
entirely OF plants. Palms and the multi
colored croton filled all the window spaces
and mantels.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-General Fitz-
hugh Lee, who arrived in Washington
last night from New York, in an inter
view said that the people Of Cuba are
steadily improving under the existing
protectorate of the United States, and
