Washington. April 2S.-The new
American army will be armed with the
Enfield rife which is used by the
British army in France. This has al
ready been decided upon by the war
department Ii was learned tonight.
Permission has been obtained for
the use of the rifles through the Brit
ish commission here and large orders
will be placed shortly.
The step was decided upon because
the rifle manufacturers of this coun-
try are already filled with machinery
for making Enfield rifles and turn out
from 10000 to $4,000 daily as against
only about 1900 Springfield rifles Ghe
present army standard).
The Enfield rifles are to be re-
chambersd however. so they will be
able to use the same cartridges as are
used in the Springfield rifles
For similar reasons the war depart
ment is considering the use OF two
types OF six-inch howitzers which are
used in the European armies. on
Gals refused to go into detail regard
ing this type of mobile artillery. 1t
will. however, be of greater calibre
than any at present in use in the
United States
The war department at present has
more than 100000 rifles which have
passed inspection. The Standardization
of the field type means merely that the
government Is looking forward to the
arming Of the draft army.
