CUBA GIVEN UP
 TO THE NATIVES
Gomez Is lnaugurated President of the New Republic Amid Elaborate and
 Appropriate Ceremonies.

Havana, Jan. 2S.-Affairs on the island, which have been ad- ministered by American officials for more than two years, were formerly transferred to the new " elected native executives to- day. The coming of this new day of Cuban liberty was signaled by a general display of fireworks, the blackness Of midnight being set aflame by rockets and bombs. The streets of the city which are brilliantly illuminated with incandescent bulbs, were thronged until an early hour this morning and the carnival spirit eN anywhere prevailed
 General Gomez took the oath Of office as President of the repub- lie at noon and within one hour thereafter Provisional Governor Magoon and all army officers who have served in an executive capacity were bound out of the harbor for home. Magoon will go on a warship conveyed by the bat tleships Maine and Mississippi. while the army officers will

travel on board the Transport Mcclellan.
 Thus the people of the gorgeous isle have taken over the manage ment of their own governmental affairs for the second time under American auspices.
 The inaugural ceremonies will take place in the palace and will be attended by diplomat tic repre- sentatives and special envoys from all countries. It will be a magnificent affair, attended by much pOmp and circumstance. and accompanied by a verita ble orgy of enthusiastic revelry on the part of the freed and inde- pendent pOpulace.
 But the populace. it must be admitted. cares not so much for political independence as it does for the lotteries, the cooking mains and the bullfights that are promised under the new re- gime. These sports and pastimeS dear to the heart of every Cuban were at least nOminally banish- ed by the Puritan edicts of the American invaders but the Lib eral party which controls the executive and legislative bran che'S of the new government, has promised that bills establishing the legality of cock fighting and inaugurating a national lottery i will be among the first intro duced.
