HAVANA, May 20.—President Palma was inaugurated at noon today in the presence of the diplomatic ‘corps in | full uniform, Cabinet officers, Senators, | Congressmen, Judges, heads of de- partments and the representatives of economic, agricultural and commer- | clal associations. None of the Liberal jmembers of Congress attended. The inaguration ceremony took iplace in the red salon of the palace. The oath of office was administered by the Chief Justice of the Supreme ! Court in front of a dais, on which were seated eight Supreme Court Judges and the court officials. Over the cen- tral portion of the dais was suspended a canopy of red, on which was the Cuban court of arms. President Palma, who appeared to be in the best of health, entered the salon as the bell of the palace was striking the noon hour. The guns of the Cabannass fortress pealed forth a welcome to the incoming administra- tion and this was reinforced by the screeching of many whistles and the crash of bands playing the Cuban na- tional anthem. Accompanied by Vice President Men- dez Capote and the members of his Cabinet, President Palma advanced| down the alsle, flanked on either side! by members. of the ‘diplomatic corps,| Judges of thé local courts, Congress- men and guests. When Hle reached the dais the Chief ‘Justice spoke :briefly of the significance of the . occasion. During the administration of the oath the voices of the President and Chief Justice were barely audible, owing to the noise of the celebration outside. ! Following the administration of the; cath President Palma spoke briefly of| his ‘appreciation of the occasion and thanked those who participated in the inauguration. Senor Gaytan de Avala, the Spanish Minister, who is now dean of the diplo- matic corps, then advanced and read an address in behalf of all the mem- bers of the diplomatic corps, felic tating President Palma on assuming | an office worthily bestowed and thank- ing him especially for his efforts to increase the friendly relations betweep Cuba and other countries. The President, responding, said that he appreclated deeply the honor ten- dered him at such a moment. General congratulations followed, after which President Palma went out on the balcony and repeatedly saluted the crowd in the plaza and watched the troops file past. Later he gave a luncheon to the members of the Cabi- net and throughout the afternoon he held a reception. The celebration of Tndependence day was enthusiastic, but frequent heavy showers during the afternoon marred the occasion. st THIRTY FUNERALS POSTPONED BECAUSE OF DRIVERS' STRIKE Walk-out of a New York Union Inter- feres With the Burial of the Dead.
