armed men ostensibly from Cuba, may in
volve us in trouble with Spain. and he has
brought several departments of the govern
ment into cooperation to secure not only in
formation as to the object of the expedition.
but the vessel itself. The secretary does not
want repetition of the Virginus affair,
which cost the government several million Of
dollars and so he is doing what he can to
bring about the capture of the Shooter. and
thus avoid any diplomatic complications with
Spain. He said last evening that from the
little information he had obtained, he was in
clined to believe that the destination of the
vessel was San Domingo and not Cuba, and
that the passengers who recently arrived in
Boston on the schooner Screamer, and then
proceeded after short detention to Santo
Domingo, were part of or connected with the
scheme to engage in fllibustering movements
