restored at Barcelona, Saragossa and
Valenci, but newspaper kilograms re-

eral of whom were killed or wounded.
A serious conflict also occurred today in
the center Of the town. The orders of
the captain general to persuade the
dock laborers to resume work have fail
ed, and the entire trade of Barcelona is
at a standstill. Revolutionary procla-
nations are still being circulated there.
The most stringent measures have been
prepared to protect traffic and business.
The strikers have few rifles, but are
well supplied with ievolvers and dag
gers.

and was cordially welcomed as a guest
OF the nation. The land batteries that
guard the outer harbor sounded the
first greeting in ponderous greeting Of
21 guns, the rifles of special naval
squadron assembled in his honor re-
echoed the sentiment, there were verbal
greetings from the representatives OF
President Roosevelt, the army, navy,
and the city of New York, and great
crowd lined the way in the city to see
and cheer the sailor prince of Germany.
The great storm against which the
Kronprinz Wilhelm had struggled for
days, and which had glazed the Allan

there we're no regrets that the royal
guest was full day late for the enter
tainment provided for him.
There was q curtain off the Hook
early in the morning, and it was after
8 O'Clock before the watchers caught the
shadowy outlines of the cautiously ap-
preaching liner.
Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans,

honorary aid to the prince, accompanied
by his staff, left the flagship Illinois

sailing around on the starpoard side oi
the liner, steamed up the bay. Prince
Henry, attired in the uniform of an
admiral of the German navy, and sur
rounded by his naval and military
staff, stood on the bridge of the liner
As the naval tug drew nearer to the
side of the steamship, Prince Henry
and Admiral Evans caught sight Of
each other and exchanged informal sal
utes. The distance from steamer tc
tug was too great for conversation, how
ever.
As the two vessels, with a fotilla o.
tugs and official craft, moved in past
Fort Wadsworth, the first of the sal.
utes OF 2l guns was fred. AS the frs
gun sounded the prince advanced tc
the end of the bridge OF the Kronprini
Wilhelm and stood at attention. Al
he passed the big American flag float
ing over the fortifcation he raised hi
cap in salute, and the members of hi
suite did likewise. The flag at Tia,

foreign ambassadors. These gentle
men, with the foreign minister, were
afterwards received by the prince at the
German embassy. This was one of the
most notable functions of the day. A
most notable and pleasing feature of the
day was the visit of the nations guest
to the halls Of congress, while both
bodies were at work. The dinner given
by President Roosevelt at the White
House tonight closed the honors be-
slowed on the royal visitor by official
Washington today.
After the dinner the prince left di-
rectly for the railroad station, where
his special train awaited him. A
troop of cavalry and a squadron Of
mounted and bicycle policemen acted
as escort to the station, and saw him
safely aboard the train which left al
midnight for New York City. Prince
Henry gave expression tonight to his
deep sense Of appreciation of the splen.
did reception accorded him at the ma
tional capitol.

YORK. Is DESTROYED.
Also the Magnificent Armory Of the Seventy.
First Regiment Of New York. In Which the
Fire Started Several Hundred Guests Of
the Hotel Had Narrow Escape and at
Least 20 are Believed to Have PerlShed.

New York, Feb. 24.--The Park Av-
enue Hotel, situated at Thirty-socond
and Thirty-third streets, and the ar
mory of the seventy-first regiment, New
York National Guard, were destroyed
by fire that broke out early today in
the armory. 1t is certain that num-
Der of lives have been lost, Chief Croker
making an estimate of 20 dead in the
ruins of the hotel. Four bodies have
been taken out. The loss is estimated
at 81, ,000,0 900.
The Seventy-irst regiment armory, 3
magnificent granite struture, and one of
the finest in the city, was destroyed.
The car barns of the Metropolitan
Street Railway, on an a, joining corner,
were momentarily threatened with de-
strution, but the good work of the fire.
men saved them. The armory covered
an entire block, and was occupied also
by the Second battery and the First
signal corps
The fire was discovered in a window
of the armory, on the Thirty-fourth
street side, and by the time the firemen
arrived the flames had completely en-
veloped the building and appeared
through the roof, Shortly after the
cartridges and ammunition exploded.
At 2 o'clock l 900 pounds of powder in
the cellar exploded and the walls were
thrown outward.
By this time the people living in the
neighborhood had been driven from
their homes by the heat, and were shell
tered in the car barn near by. Many
escapes were witnessed and heroic work
was done by the firemen and spectators.
The guests of the Park Avenue Ho-
tel, numbering about 600, were aroused
as quickly as possible, but not without
panic among the women and children.
Firemen poured ii streams upon the
side of the hotel nearest the fire, but in
spite of this the third floor caught fire,
and the flames, eating along the walls
of the hotel, spread to the roof. The
firemen ran ladders up on every side
and attempted to work their way
through the hotel, but were driven back
by the dense volumes of smoke agaiK
and again.
A little after 8 o'clock the four upper
floors of the hotel were a mass of flames
and the fire was spreading rapidly down
through the structure 1t was then ap-
parent that the hotel was doomed.
