WARSHIPS ORDERED | NEARER TO COBAj i AMERICA PREPARES TO TAKE HA>D IN REBELLION i Fleet of I'Ht le Sam's Best Sea Fighters to Assemble at Key West, Prepared to Sail. Washington. May 25.?Insurrection and disorders in Cuba, which threaten the life and property of Americans and are believed by the United States to be spreading beyond control of the | Cuban government, caused the Ameri / ean government today to tane aaivc steps in preparation to cope with any situation which ipay arise in the Island Republic. Two divisions of the Atlantic battle- j ship fleet were ordered to take on j their full quota of marines, making a total of 1,300, in addition to the 700 now en route to Guantanamo 011 the j Prairie, and rendezvous at Key West, j ready to move to Cuba at the instant J their presence is needed. A dozen war- i ships will be in the immediate vicinity j of Cuba within a few days. Array Also Prepared. The army is prepared with an expe- j ditionary force of 15,000 men, if it is | needed, and plans for a campaign to | stamp out the rebellion prepared by I the general staff are ready to be put i in execution at the call of the pres-f ident. The insurrection and the serious la-! bor troubles, as a result of the re- ! newal of the longshoremen's strike, are believed to warrant American pre- j <paredness. Of the two, the distur- j foances which probably will arise at | the Cuban ports through the strikers'! operations are believed to be the more I immediate and dangerous. With the j bait of trade, the throwing upon the j streets of large numbers of riotous la- j ,borers and the privations likely to fol- j low the cutting off of water transpor- j tation, the Cuban government is likely ' ?? ! to find itself handicapped financially j through the total suspension of cus- J toms receipts, which form the chief ; revenue of the island. Within Easy Keacli. The American fleet, made up of the third and fourth divisions of the Atlantic fleet, will take station off Key ' West ready to steam into Havana "within five hours and a few hours later to any other north coast ports where serious disorders may break I out. It is believed the near presence j of one or more of the Amrican warchips, by its moral effect, would prevent violent demonstration. i Should this not be sufficient, recourse will be had to the marine force, . ? r? i.u:_ i oAA ? ,3 ? 1 stuq iur mis purpose i,ouu <tuuiuiu;j<w I . maries will be taken on at New York and Norfolk. This force readily could i be supplemented by liundrels cf ')luc j jackets, if necessary. The attitude of the Cuban government in welcoming the dispatch of American marines to Guantanamo is accepted as an indication of its perfect willingness to allow other marines and bluejackets to be lande:1. without express permission from the 1 local Cuban authorities. In any case, the Americau naval cojrimanders will exercise their discretion where Americau life and property seem to be in need of protction. Yessels Comprising: Fleet. fc ^ irol nptorlionc li -r J ' N I AVlULIll C4.1 VOtViuuuc, v- - j Atlantic fleet, will command this mob-; ilized fleet from his flagship, tin'' Washington. The other vessels will j: be the Georgia, Rhode Island, New i Jersey, and Nebraska, composing the | " third division, and the Minnesota, Mis- j sissippi, Missouri and Ohio, of the ' "fourth division. The hospital ship So- 1 lace and the fleet tugs Patapsco and Patuxent will accompany the expedi- j tioo. followed by such supply ships j and colliers as may be necessary. The i; collier Lebanon already is taking on ' coal at Philadelphia. A<fmiral "Osterhaus' fleet should arrive at Key West by Wednesday if the j( vessels succeed in clearing tomorrow, j as it is expected- They are now has- j ten in g to the Xew York navy vard and ' Hampton Roads to pick up as many marines as may be necessary to fill; their quotas. The Nebraska, from New Orleans, will join the fleet at Key West The little guniboat Paducah has been ordered from Guantanamo to Nipe. 15,000 Troops In Readiness. Apparently satisfied with the com- j pleteness or me preparanuus nmue u.v the navy for dealing with the Cuban troubles in its present stage, the army is making no move towards the island. It is figured that, within three days, the first regiments of the 15,000 expeditionary force, which has been held in readiness for months past, will be; embarking on the four big army trans- j ports now lying in Newport News equipped for sea. Because of a desire to avoid anv * i appearance of intervention in a political sense, it is said, the State department, instead of calling upon the ar- : my, turned to the navy first. The officials have lost no opportunity of earnestly disclaiming any intenton of a | I military occupation of Cuba, unless! the insurrection should get completely ; beyond the control of the Gomez government and a condition should arise demanding intervention.
