October LA dispatch de- layed two days in transmission was re- ceived at the state department today an- nouncing the safe arrival Wednesday at Santo Domingo City of the transport Prairie, which carried 750 marines sent to reopen customs houses closed by rebels on the Haitien- Dominican fronties. Everything wss reported quiet. but the dispatch did not say whether the landing of the marines would be necessary. As the rebels have cut the wires between Ssnto Domingo City and Puerto Plata on the northern coast of the island, there is no cable communication with the capital of the Dominican republic except via Bogota, Colombia, which is slow and un- satisfactory.
 With the expedition of marines, which is commanded by Colonel Moses. are Gen eraI Frank Mcintyre, chief of the in- sular bureau of the war department, and Chief w. T. s. Doyle of the Latin Amer ican division of the state department, sent as special commissioners to inyesti- gate conditions in the republic. c
