CELEBRATION OF THE GRITO DE BAIRE. The three preceding photographs were taken on February 24th, when Havana celebrated the national holiday. "Grito de Baire." The upper photograph on page 14 shows the laying of the cornerstone of the mausoleum to be erected by the Cuban War Veterans in Colon Cemetery, Havana. In the center of this photograph appears Vice-President, Genera! Emilio Nunez, with General Loynaz del Castillo on his right and General Alfonso on his left. The lower photograph shows the students of Havana University marching along the Prado, carrying an immense Cuban Hag. which they later presented to the Rotary Club of Havana in return for a similar flag which the Rotary Club gave them on the 10th of October last year, while celebrating the "Grito de Yara." The photograph above on this page shows an auto-truck conveying ladies of the Cuban Red Cross, followed by a detachment of Boy Scouts and other participants in the parade, enroute along the Prado. STEAMSHIP SERVICE BETWEEN CORUNA AND HABANA. Consul W. Bruce Wallace, of Coruna, Spain, reports that the Koninklijke Hol- landsche Lloyd Steamship Co. of Amster- dam, Holland, will establish service from Coruna to Cuba as soon as peace is signed. The steamship Frisia of this line, the first foreign boat that has called here since the war began, arrived at Corunna on February 15 to take on pas- sengers and cargo for South America. The Dutch company has had the plan of a Corunna-Cuba line in view for several years. The Hamburg-American Line before the war had a regular monthly service of fast boats from Coi anna to Habana and also a slower servicj calling at Vigo as well. It is apparently the intention of the Dutch company to secure traffic lost by the German line. NEW STEAMSHIP LINE BETWEEN SPAIN AND CUBA The Cuban consul at Santa Cruz de Tenerife, Canary Islands, notified the state department that the society Hijos de Taya steamship company, established at Barcelona, is projecting the establish- ment of a line from that port to Havana, stopping at Luz, Canary Islands.
