Steamer Carries Over Arms and Am munitions for Irsurgsnts Tampa, Fla., May 10—The steamer Gussie, one of the Mallory Hoe ol boats, chartered by tbe government for use as a traneport, sailed for Cuba thia morning, loaded with arms, am munition and supj Hee furnished by tbe United Stales government for the use of the Cuban ioeurgenta A company of 100 United States troops from tbe First regiment of in fantry accompanied tbe expedition and aided in guarding tbe landing of the valuable cargo on the coast of Cu ba and will, if necessary, penetrate in to the interior far enough to place the supplies in the bands of the insur gents. Tbe expedition is iu charge of Capt. J. H Doret, Geo. Miles’a aide, who has just returned from Cuba. The Gussie has on board between six and seven thousand Springfield rifles, about 200,000 rounds of ammu nition and several hundred boxes of provisions, consisting of canned meats and hardtack. The utmost secrecy is maintained regarding the point of landing, but in view of Captain Dorst’s recent landing near Havana, where be com municated with tbe insurgent leader, General Delgady, it is believed that the expedition will be headed for a point not far from Havana. Tbe Gcseie had mounted on her forward deck a one-pounder rapid-fire gun for protection. It is understood, how* ever, that abe will be met at some point not far from Key West by a gunboat from the American blockade squadron and escorted to the designa ted landing place. The Whitney, tbe sister ship to the Gussie, which sailed for Dry Tortuga# Saturday with two companies of the Fifth infantry has returned. It is in* limaled that she'will follow tbe Gus sie to Cuba as soon as the arms, am munition and supplies can be loaded. Before a week has passed it is be lieved that the insurgent leaders will have been furnished arms enough for at least 15,000 men and with a base of supplies established on the coast, a vigorous campaign against the Span ish forces will be inaugurated. Large amounts of powder and pro jectiles fotJhe blockading squadron are now arriving here. On Picnic island there are twelve cars loaded with dynamite torpedoes, powder and ammunition, which will coon be ship ped to Key West, and there are as many more cars on tbe wharf tracks. An extra heavy guard has been placed around tbe cars with orders to shoot any one attempting to tamper with tbe seals. Hundreds of carpenters are at work today fitting up tbe big trans ports. Heretofore the work has been rather slow, owing to the lack of mate rial, but it is believed now that all of tbe boata here will be in readiness for loading by Wednesday night. The engineers ol tbe ships ban been drilled in tbe use of the big canvas pontoons which are part of their equip ment. In the capacious bold of tbe Alamo are stored enough of these pontoons to form a bridge several bun died feet in length/ They will be carried along with the expedition.
