The Orleans relief committee received a dis
patch from the secretaey of war refusing an
other issue of government rations. He says:
You say the Towards refuse to aid you on the
ground that the funds in their hands have been
sent with the express object to aid the sufferers
from fever. l am still of opinion that it is
not impossible for you to to get relief from
private resources, and that it is therefore not
case for the extension of government aid in
the absence of authority. If the Towards have
large unexpended fund they can properly
help you. At all events their discretion is far
more ample than mine''

from fever the past twenty-four hours ending
