ARMS FOR THE INSURGENTS.
Fifty Thousand Rifles Ordered for
Shipment to Cuba.


Shipment to Cuba.
In anticipation of the cooperation of the
insurgents in Cuba the ordnance officers of
the army have been instructed to procure
for Immediate shipment about $4,000 rifles,
mostly Krag-Jorgensons. with a corre-
spending quantity Of ammunition. These
supplies are intended for the use of the in
surgent army, and arrangements are now
being made for their shipment to Cuba.
The Quartermasters department of the
army has been instructed to supply trans
portation for 5000 men from Key West to
Cuba. together with the arms and ammu-
milton intended for the Cubans.
The force referred to will undoubtedly
constitute the advance army Of invasion,
and will probably be landed at a point near
MatanzaS. The fact that Gen. Shafter,
who came to Washington on a summons
from the Secretary, was In conference with
the members of the naval strategic board,
as we'll as with Gen. Miles end the Secre-
tary- of War, is accepted 10 mean that this
officer will have command Of the first mill
tary expedition TO Cuba
The officials Of the department are par
ticularly reticent with regard to this pro-
posed military movement and refuse posi-
lively to give any details concerning it 1t
is believed, however, that the army will be
organized and sent to the island as soon as
the arrangements now in progress to that
end have been perfected, which will prob
ably be within the next two or three
weeks. In case Gen. Miles does not take
the field, 1t is probable that the active COM
mand of the army will devolve upon Major
General Merritt, commanding the depart
ment of the east, who is the second ranking
officer, and who is especially dcsirous of
engaging in active military operations.
