Funeral of Maximo Gomez.

Havana, June 22.—The body of General Maximo Gomez was interred after a funeral service replete with such demonstrations in honor of the dead general as to load in several instances to scenes of disorder. The most serious trouble occurred while the great procession wns passing Central park, when some reckless young Cubans rushed toward the field gun caisson on which the general’s remains were borne, demanding permission to c-nrry the body.
