I believe that is the military acceptance mark..proof mark.

Ah right ok thank you, it was manufactured in 1897, does that mean it was issued to the military
"All versions and variants were manufactured under license by the Springfield Armory between 1892 and 1903 and famously served as the longarm during the Spanish–American War."
This I fo is from wiki, but I believe it is accurate. It's a start, more research needed. I know a little, but these rifles are not my expertise..
