Besides the marines who will go on the Prairie, perhaps 150 men, bluejackets and marines, may be taken from the gunboat Wheeling, now in Dominican waters, in case of need, and it is sald, at the navy de; ent, that more naval vessels will be sent to Dominican waters at any moment the state department may desire.
