occasionca by the outbreak Of the measles in |
The barracks. In the same article We called |
upon the physicians Of the city interested in
the City Hospital to furnish accommodations
in that building to relieve the crowded state
Of the Hospital at Camp Douglns-
Since that article WIS written we have been
informed that not only the physicians, but
the Steward Of the Hospital arc willing and
even dcsirous Of accommodating sick soldiers,
and negotiations to that effect we're pending
some time since, but for some reason were
dropped. The Hospital has. accommodations
for large number, has clean, spacious, dry,
veil aired and we'll ventilated rooms, and the
expense to the Government will he 4 mere
triflc.
LII Washington and III all the Eastern camps,
patients suffering with contagious diseases are
at once removed from the camp, as should
have been done at Camp Douglas long ago.
We trust the authorities will not neglect this
opportunity to remove their patients to a
hospital where most excellent attendance and
the comforts and neeessaries incident to the
sick room will be provided. It is certainly
culpablc in the extreme to expose the entire
camp to y troublesome complaint, and one
which, with the limited accommodations Of
the Camp Hospital aud necessary exposure,
may prove dangerous. Some proper place
should be secured at once, and NC know Of
none better or more economical than the City
Hospital.
