target.
The shooting WAS not commenced till

steady breeze. could be seen by the
difference in speed of the machines with

altitude. Then as the aeroplaneScame
up the field against the wind Capt. Chan

Four out of the ten shots HIT the target.
Fires at Small Pool

thought it must he a mistake till the
aeroplane came down when Capt. chand-
Ter explained there was a little pool of
water near the fish ponds at the north
of the field. and he had dropped six
shots into the puddle just 10 see what
he could do and TO get immediate returns
on his Workmanship. All of the shots
landed in the water.
On the last round of the field the aero
plane a little overreached the mark. and
while all the shots were in a line with
the targe:. the majority of them were
punched off the end Of the cloth while a
few landed on the cloth itself

officer of high rank stated emphaticaliy
yesterday, they would be turned over TO
the Cuban government for punishment.

a prominent merchant was murdered In

Troops May Not Be Needed.

The United States government is await
ing developments in Cuba and officials
of the State War and Navy departments
concur in the opinion that nothing is
likely to happen within the next day or
two that will involve the employment of
any American forces in addition to these
already landed in Cuba or made ready
to CO. The opinion was freely expressed
at the War Department Yesterday that
ii would not be necessary to dispatch
the ''expeditionary' brigade of infantry.
Evidence of this belief was found in the
fact that so far no general officer has
been designated for this command. The
soldiers composing the brigade are ready
to move instantly.
The naval supply ship Culgoa, reported
her arrival at Guantanamo yesterday, SO
that the sailors of the fourth division
battleships and the marines ashore in
Cuba are assured of an ample quantity
of refrigerated meats and cold storage
vegetables.
Reports to the State Department from
Cuba indicated yesterday that the insur-
gent activities were confined to petty pill
la ging and that they have nowhere shown
a willingness to stand up in combat with
the government troops.
