the Cubans. and the fact that the stars
and stripes h0ated from its customary
pole over the castle did not lessen their
enthusiasm.
A great fleet Of vessels that had gone
out to escort the Julia in. returned two
hours later. As the Julia entered the
harbOr bands stationed along the water
front played the Cuban national hymn,
steamers saluted continually, there
were cheers from the crowded wharves
and church bells were rung. The pro
cession entered between rows OF deco
rated tugs and barges. The several
warships in the harbOr also were deco
rated. Nearby the stars and stripes
ioated over the wreck Of the Maine,

from a defective electric wire, but the
exact cause win never be known. The
powdered dust arising from the wood
working machine which coated the in
terror Of the old building exploded with
the first contact of flames. The entire
building was blazing before the alarm
could be given. A train Of cars partly
loaded with boxes, standing in front Of

fire. together with scores Of towering
lumber piles. tt was the closely piled
lumber and the compact bundles Of box

were scorched on the main street and
several caught FIRE. no losses occurred
except to the lumber company. More
than COO 900 feet OF lumber was saved,

is composed Of natives of Martinique. a
