And the Wei Fought on Short Rai;ons-
Testimony of n Michigan Surgeon.
Huntsville, Ala, Oct. 27.-Camp Forse
was the scene of the labors of the war
Investigators yesterday. In the morn
ing the commission, in subcommittee
of two or three, inspected the camp
from end to end. In the afternoon a
number of officers who had served in
the Santiago campaign and in Florida
were examined. General C. S. Carpen-
ter said the sick at Santiago had suf-
fercd somewhat On account of the de-
REGENCY of medicines and medical sup
plies. The trocTs did not receive the
entire ration while in the field but he
was quite sure that no man in the
command had gone hungry. Captain
George S. Cartwright, who had been
aide to General Kent in the Santiago
campaign, said that doubtless some of
the men had been hungry at times, but
he thought the excitement of battle had
sustained them. On the night of July
1 he had half a bareback for supper
and the remaining half the next Morn
ing. He thought that under the cir
cumstances the commissary department
had been quite efficient at Santiago.
Major I. ID. Thompson. surgeon of the
Thirty-third Michigan, who had served
in the general hospital at MOntauk
Point after Aug. y. said that in August
there were geo patients in the hospital,
and that there were often eight in a
tent. There We're in the beginning os
his service not sufficient cots, and some
men had to sleep on blankets. Some of
the members of the hospital corps were
without training, but ne had known of
but one instance in which hospital ref
use was thrown out on the ground be-
side the tent. There were times when
there was not a sufficient number of at
tendants. As a rule the surgeons were
capable, but when he went into the in
stitution there was a sad deficiency in
numbers.
He had no complaints of i'll treatemnt
from patients, but there was criticism
from outsiders. He thought deaths were
caused by the removal of patients he
fore they were in condition to be moved.
Yet the removals were made to make
place for others who were still sick. and
who otherwise would not have found
a place in the hospital. In one instance
he had been told to get 500 ready for
removal. but when going through the
hospital ne had found only seventy FL
to be moved and had demanded a writ
ten order. This order he did not set
and therefore removed only the seventy.
He estimated that from eco to SEQ had
been thus prematUrely removed.

PRESIDENT AT PHILADELPHIA.
Ready to Review the Great Military Peace
Festival Parade.

Philadelphia, Oct. 27.-President Nc
T<inley was last evening rendered a din
ner ard reception at the Union League.
The dinner was entirely informal ana
was given by the board of directors of
the LEAGUE. There were sixty at the
table. President c. Stuart Patterson, of
the league, welcomed President McKin-
ley. and the latter responded very brief
ly-simply word OF thanks.
Today President Mckinley will re-
view the military parade, and he ex-
pressed his regret that he will not be
able to remain to see the postponed
civic parade on Friday. The only
speech made by the president was a
brief one as he was leaving the Union
League shortly before IL O'Clock. a
tremendous crowd of people had gath
cred in the street outside, and the calls
were so vociferous that the national
executive said: You have cheered the
president of the United States and also
cheered a hero of the late war. If you
will be patient a few moments you Will
have an opportunity to cheer other
heroes of the Merrimac."
a moment later four of the crew of
the Nerrimac came from the building
and were presented to the crowd. They
received most tumultuOUs greeting.
There are 600 soldiers in the city to
take part in the parade today.

ing rations in return. General Wood
sent the following reply:
Certainly rot. The conditions on
which rations are to be issued are the
complete disarmament and disband-
ment of the troops
Some of the Cubans here consider
that the United States is treating its
allies badly in not allowing the Cuban
forces to remain armed. They contend
that the Cuban soldiers who have been
fighting three years. who speak the
language of the country, are better
htted for garrison duty than unframed
volunteers"
The Cuban General Macia Rodriguez
virtually voices the sentiment of the
Cuban army when he says: we thank
the United States for the assistance it
has giEen us, but the time has now ar
rived when the Cuban should be placed
in the highest offices and should pre-

TO the Americans, practically demand

Cuban mcdsrates regret this stand,
thinking it best for the United States
authorities to continue in charge of af-
fairs for a year at least, so as to set
thir - going and to prevent any COM
plications with foreign governments.

blers, Is evidenced by the statement of Hugh McCulloch in his second report as comptroller of the currency: He says: Hostility to the government has been as decidedly manifest in the effort that has been made in the commercial metropolis of the nation to depreciate the currency as it has been manifested by the enemy. Im- mense interests have been at work and concentrated in New York to raise the price of coin.
 This hostility of the banks to the demand notes Is indicated further by the follow ing extract from letter from Albert Gal latin to Secretary Chase, September 12 1861, and published in Volume 16 of the Bankers Magazine, page 354.
 When the proposed system of raising means by the banks was reported by a committee of ten they were almost unani- mously in favor of affxing to it condi- tion that the government should not issue demand notes. That condition was only yielded from a reluctance to endanger or embarrass your appeal in so solemn a crisis, and because of your remonstrance against being compelled to give an official pledge against the use of a legal enact ment, and still further because of your as- surance that it would only be resorted to when other means of raising money should fail The banks therefore feel the most implicit confidence that these issues will be confind to a very inconsiderable sum- and not be extended beyond a small amount for which specific sum will be pledged"
 About this time also circular known as the ''IIazzard circular" was distributed among the bankers and capitalists of this country by an agent of London capitalists. These are some of its most significant statements:
 Slavery is likely to be abolished by the war power and chattal slavery destroyed. This, I and my European friends are in favor of, for slavery Is but the owning of labor and carries with it the care of the labor While the European plan led on by England is for capital to control labor by controlling wages. This can be done by controlling the money. The great debt that capitalists will see to it, is made out of the war must be used as a means to control the volume of money. To accom- pish this the bonds must be used as u banking basis. We are now waiting for the secretary of the treasury to make the re- commendation to congress It will not do to allow the "greenback," as 1t Is called, to circulate as money any length of time, as we cannot control that"
The age-herald., 1898-04-24

pricking the bull and covering the Hon with a red flag tried two or three times more with very satisfactory results. Each time the victory was to the bull, though in the last encounter, which was the fiercest and most exciting of all, the bull was badly lacerated around the right eve. but on the other hand the lion was wounded from head to tail, so that its taUrny hide was crimsoned with blood.
 Good Fight
 Indeed, it may be said that the last fight was really good one, inasmuch as one of the combatants was placed clearly hors de combat. When, as the shades of eve- ming fell upon the scene, the lion was las soed it was unable to walk back to it's cage, but was simply dragged, helplessly, over the ground.
 This fight makes the great prowess or the Mexican fighting bull very evident It is not uncommon to hear prejudiced tour ists who attend bull fights say that it re- quires no courage to face bull in the ring, but 1t is clear that an animal who so easily defeats the king of beasts and whose offensive weapons are so formidable re- uuires to be met and dispatched with suc- cess, no ordinary degree of skill, nerve and agility.
 The people withdrew from the Indianilla track after an exciting and interesting af- ternoon's amusement, exclaiming, "No es tan bravo el leon como To pintan."
