Thirty other applied for reinstatement

filled by competent men. Later
they held meeting and resolved to apply

sections, especially in Quebec and the south
was demoralized. At many points TIE TIE
members were in want OF tue

were short OF funds. and it was impossible
to hold out longer. The charge made
by some that John Campbell sold
the organization out is a. most
unjust and unwarranted one. The order
may have been q little premature, but those

allied the fact that hundreds

corps, received tina following dispatch from
Lieutenant Tyler, commanding the detach-
ment of marines at Pensacola navy yard :
zone private died of yellow fever; three IN
the hospital; two doing we'll, and one very
sick, The command is in new brick
building, in the upper story, cool and
healthy, 1t is too late to encamp the men.
The excitement and work would perhaps
develop new cases." We are strictly quar-
antined. In addition to Surgeon Martin

The employment of civilian physician
MAS been authorized by the navy depart
lment. 1t is understood the civilian sur.
geon, whose services were sought, refused

per day. The telegraph operator at the
navy yard has declined to remain longer at
his post unless compensated at the rate OF
$40 per day. The operators terms were
accepted, and if 1t is necessary to have as
sistauce for DR.. Martin the demand OF the
civilian surgeon will also be conceded. =,
