II was impossible for them TO have the ad-
vantage Of the wagon transportation which
usually accompanies an army. and yet
onicers and men were glad to carry their
blankets and their rations on their backs
and to be subjected. without shelter, to the
sun and rains BY day and the heavy hazes
by night. They certainly knew that the
Spaniards had spent years in erecting de-
fenses. and It was their pleasure to assault
and their duty to capture the Spanish
works. They were mora than glad to in
cur tho hardships and these dangers. They
went there and did their duty. each man
seeming to feel that American honor and
prestige was to be measured by hts con.
duct.
Heroes Were Grateful
Tho brave men who won the victories
did not complain Of the neglect of the
government, but on the contrary they
seemed grateful to the president and Sec
retary Of war for giving them the oppor-
tunity TO incur these dangers and hard
ships. They realised that in the hurried
organisation OF an expedition by gov
ernnient which had no ono with any expert
encc in such matters II was Impossible to
have everything arranged to perfection;

cumstances the conditions were much more
expect, and that the president and secre-
tary Of war and others who planned and
dispatched these expeditions deserve high
commendation.
Reason for Lack
One reason why our army was lacking
In some respects in equipage was that a
telegram was received from Admiral
Sampson stating that II the army reported
there Immediately they could take the city
| at once. but II there should be delay the
fortihcattons OF the 6pan1ards would be so
perfected that there might be great difi-
| Guilty in taking It. On receiving this dis
| patch from Admiral Sampson the war de-
partment directed the army to move at
once. and - all connected with tho army
will recall, the orders were received after
dark, and the army was In motion. Travelled
nine miles and was on the ships at daylight.
When the expedition sailed for Cuba It
went there escorted BY a large feet Of war
ships. At that time It was regarded az i'm
possible for q merchant ship to sail on the
ocean safely from any American port to
Santiago, but a. soon a. the Spanish fleet
was destroyed 10 that II was possible for
unarmed ships to sail safely to Santiago
the generous people Of the United States
subscribed money without limit and DIS
patched chip after ship loaded with luxu-
ries and delicacies for the Santiago army.
and everything that could be accomplished
for their comfort was done BY the president
and secretary OF war.
After the Surrender
Alter the surrender had been completed
and arrangements perfected for trans
porting the Spanish army to Spain, the
president and secretary Of war sent ship
pinr to santiago ana transported our army

Hardship Unavoidable

To avoid such a catastrophe, point
which is more thoroughly Isolated from the
people than any other locality which could
be found was selected. BY these wise
means the country has been saved from a
scourge OF this fearful disease. Every one
will realize that to land 5000 msn and put
them; on bare fields, without any build
ings whatever. could not be done without
some hardships. Over 5000 very sick men
have been received in the general hospital
and as many more sick have been cared fsv
In the camps. and yet only about sixty
deaths have occurred in these hospitals.
Tents had to be erected and hospitals con-
structed and preparations made to sup
ply those 5000 men with wholesome water,
food, medicines. physicians, nurses, cooks,
hospital furniture, wagons, ambulances
and the other needs essential to caring for
1900 men, fully half Of whom are very sick
or in a feeble condition. In addition to this,
most Of the bedding and much Of the cloth
ing was left in Santiago to prevent yellow
fever infection. All Of these deficiencies
have had to be supplied. We have but one
line Of railroad to bring y se supplies and
sometimes there have been delays

generosity which has been extended to
them.
There is no doubt that there have been
individual cases of suffering and possibly
neglect among the soldiers, not only in
Cuba. but since their arrival at this place.
Nearly 10000 men were brought from a
yellow fever district to the United States.
1t would have been criminal TO land them
and allow them to go promiscuously among
the people. 1t has been stated by physi-
clans that IL 1t had been done, yellow fever
