BETTER GUNS FOR VOLUNTEERS
TWENTY THOUSAND KRAG-JoR-
GENSEN RIFLES READY.
Will Be Sent to the Volunteers In
Porto Rico, Who Are Equipped
With Springfield Rifles.

New York, July ga special to the
Times from Washington says: At
least $1,000 of the volunteers who go to
Porto Rico are to be supplied with the
ag-Jorgensen magazine rifle used by
the regular army This announcement,
made by the ordnance department,
came as a surprise, the understanding
having been that the supply OF the I'M
proved guns would not permit of their
being served out to the volunteer
troops for some months to come. The
ordnance department was content TO
let that impression prevail so long as
it was not prepared TO controvert 1t
with overt evidence liz the shape of the
arms themselves. but it has been
straining every energy to accumulate
a stock of the rifles, in order to begin
their issue generally as soon as pos
sible.
For the Porto Rico expedition, which
viii be made up chiefly Of volunteer
regiments now equipped with the
Springfield 45-calibre arm, the depart
ment proposes to supply one entire
corps of about 10000 men with Krag-
Jorgensens. 1t may not be able TO de
liver all these guns to the men before
they sail. but they will follow them TO
the island as rapidly as possible. Just
what regiments Will iEte4Nt liz new
arms depends upon General Miles, TO
whom they will be sent for distribu-
ton.
some difficulty is being experienced
in keeping up with the supply Of am
munition for the 30-calibre rifle. While
the government is taking the maximum
of all the cartridge manufac-
turers who can produce this ammuni-
ton the quantity needed per man, and
the rapidly with which it disappears
when the army is doing any fighting,
has more than kept pace with the in
creased producing capacity of the fac
tories. The output has not been what
was expected, either, so that even if
the government had enough Krag-JOr-
gensens to equip the entire volunteer
army, it would not be able to supply
it with the proper ammunition. This
trouble will be obviated ID the course
of a short time, however. so that be-
fore the campaign against Havana be
gins, II is within the probabilities that
nearly all the volunteers Will have
modern rifles.

RAISING The COLON WRECK
HOW THE SPANISH CRUISER
WILL BE SAVED.
A System of Air Bags and Pontoons
Will Be Used-Eobson Gives De-
partment Valuable Information.

Washington, July 23.-Lieutenant
Hobsons visit is expected to bring
about an enlargement of the plans for
saving the wrecked Spanish cruiser
Cristobal Colon and some of the other
stranded ships of Cervera's squadron.
The department had already acted on
the recommendations of Admiral Samp-
son, but those coming by mail and tel
egraph were necessarily limited, while
the full report by Lieutenant Hobson,
based on personal observations, and on
expert knowledge of condition, enabled
the department to get much more
thorough idea of the scope of the
wrecking project and the possibilities
of saving the ships. The Colon is ly-
ing on a terraced beach, only about
one-half of the hull being on shore,
while the other half is overhanging in
deep water. 1t had been found that
the portion of the ship on shore can
be raised without much difficulty, but
the overhanging creates a problem, as
it causes a balance or leverage which
interferes with the work on that part
of the hull ashore.
To meet this it is now proposed to
adopt an engineering scheme on con-
siderably broader lines than the usual
wrecking devices. 1t will embrace a
system OF air bags ana pOntOonS Hodl-
ed underneath the overhanging and
gradually buoying it upward until the
strain on the shore end of the hull is
relieved. In this way it is hoped that
the work of raising can proceed on the
overhang and on shore simultaneously,
and that the big steel hull thus can be
brought to an even keel and floated.
There were many inquiries at the
navy department today for Lieutenant
Hobson, but he had departed last night
after his conference with Secretary
Long and Commodore Hichborn of the
construction bureau. 1t is probable
that, aside from the lieutenant's eXpla-
nation of the wrecking expedition, he
his preference on the ques-
ton of the line of promotion which the
president and Secretary Long have in
view for him.
The department probably viii start

took the contract on a per diem ar

This is said to be a healthier camp

Private Brandt is still imprisoned,
pending the action of the reviewing au-
thOrity on his courtmartial. The final
decision is unusually long in coming.

GENERAL L|ScUM'S WOUNDS
BELIEVED HE WILL NEVER SEE
ACTIVE SERVICE AGAIN.
Injuries of Such a Nature That He
Will Probably Be Retired Soon,
With His Present Rank.

Information received concerning the
seriousness of Brigadier General Lis
GUMS injuries received during the bat
tie of Santiago makes it quite certain
that the gallant officer will never see
active service again. The wounds are
of such a nature that he will not be
well for perhaps a year and then not
in shape to take up active command.
1t is believed that Liscum will there
fore, be retired as brigadier general for
the balance of his days.
1t was thought that Liscum might
come here to stay during treatment,
but from limitations given out by the
people at Fort Douglas he will never
come here again, at least not as an ac-
tive officer. His injuries are serious.

would be to jeopardize his life at pres

OQUENDo RIDDLED.

The Almirante Oquendo, armored
cruiser, same class as the ViZcaya and
Teresa, went through the most terrible
ordeal of any of the ships except the
torpedo boats. Her upper works were
one ragged mass of cut up steel, and
her decks were covered with dead and
dying. She was hit on the port side
four times by eight-inch shells, three
times by four-inch shells, probably
from the Iowa, two times by six-inch
and ~ times by six-pounders that
struck her show that she met the fire
of the entire fleet, as she turned last
out of the harbor The torpedo boats
followed her and the secondary bat
terry shots intended for them hit her.
When she returned to the shore it was
in a dilapidated condition.
One of the findings of the board of
survey was that an eight-inch shell
had struck the forward turret just
where the gun opening was, and that
every man in the turret was killed, the
officer standing in the firing hood being
still in that position. Another fact
learned was that the torpedoes in some
of the ships were already loaded in
the tubes and prepared to fire.
