Large Band of Rebels Now IN
Battle With Forces Of

HAVANA, Feb. 13.--Outwardly the

Among the stories in circulation con-
corning the trouble In Camaguey Is
one that former President Jose Miguel
Gomez has landed there 10 join with
the rebels.
I, That the government is preparing

demonstrated to-day by the issuance
of an official decree, signed by Presi-
dent Menocal, authorizing the enlist
ment Of volunteers for service during
q period Of ninety days. Men between
the ages of IS and 45 are called for,
and neither non-citiZenship nor lack
Of ability to read or write Spanish will
act as a barrier to volunteers.
1t also was announced to-day that
the American government had granted
the request Of the Cuban government
TO sell it 10000 rifles and 5.OO0.0O0
rounds OF ammunition.
