Memorial Exercises For
Battleship Names Dead
Are Held in Washington

Washington, d. c., Feb. 16.-An i'm
posing street demonstration, followed
by impressive ceremonies at Arlington
National Cemetery, marked the COM
memoration here to-day of the sink
ing of the United States battleship
Maine in Havana Harbor, that historic
event which startled the whole world
and famed into flame a war fever cul-
minating in the Spanish h-American
War.
Although sixteen years have passed
since that day in February, 1898, when
the Maine was literally torn to pieces
and 26O of her officers and crew per-
ished, yet each year seems to bring
added veneration for those who lost
their lives In the explosion. To-day S
exercises, while centering about the
graves of the Maine heroes, took on,
however, q larger significance in
including all those of the land or sea
forces who had sacrificed themselves
in the line of patriotic duty.
Large bodies of cavalry, artillery,
sailors and marines began assembling
through the morning for the street
parade leading to Arlington. The
forces included the troopers stationed
at Fort Myers, the artillery with their
long line of rumbling field pieces,
large detachments of bluejackets and
iiiehi hicS iIOiil Tie WdrSillpS anu marine
barracks in this vicinity, and the full
strength of the National Guard of the
District of Columbia. Many patriotic
societies also participated, and in the
line of march were carriages bearing
the commander-in-ch chief of the Grand
Army of the Republic, Washington
Gardner, of Albion, Mich; the COM
mander of the Spanish War Veterans,
John Lewis Smith; the head of the
Army and Navy Union, H. Ogden
Lake, and others prominent in civic
and patriotic affairs.
AS the parade made it's way slowly
through the grounds, salvo of artil-
lery greeted the raising of the flag to
full mast. The invocation of the day
was delivered by Bishop Harding,
Protestant Episcopal Bishop of Wash
ington. The exercises included ad
dresses by Mr.. Lake, Colonel John Nc
Elroy, a commemorative address by
Mrs. Ida M. Galloway, past president
general of the United Spanish War
Veterans Auxiliary. and the reciting
of the Recessional by Mrs. Isabel
Worrell Ball, chairman of the woman s
executive committee.
