THE HOSPITAL SHIP RELIEF.
Surgeon General Sternberg More Than
Satisfied With 1t.


Surgeon General Sternberg Of tn, army
returned today from New York, where he
spent day in thorough examination of
the hospital ship Relief, being fitted out for
use of the army in the West Indies The
ship is admirably adapted for the purposes
intended and the general Is more than sat
isfied with her. The naval ambulance ship
Solace is now in Cuban waters, and this
vessel, with the Relief. will be used inter-
changeably SO far as the occasion therefor
may arise. Unlike the navy ship, the Relief
is distinctly hospital ship and will be
kept at it's destination until it's beds are
filled with sick and wounded men, when it
will take them to the most available and
convenient United States port, and in the
absence of hospital there the men will be
put aboard the hospital train for transpor-
tation to the nearest general hospital.
General Sternberg is receiving many Of
fers of hotels and hospital buildings for use
as general hospitals by the government
during the present war. Some of these are
submitted in a patriotic way, while others,
as Is apparent from their character are
purely speculative. In the matter of hos
pitals, however, the government at this
time is quite we'll supplied, and there are
now accommodations for over a thousand
men,

German Army.

The attention of the State Department
was today directed to the case of Jacob
Hoffman, citizen of Flatbush, n. Y, who
has been arrested in Hamburg and drafted
into the German army. Formal complaint
of this action on the part of the German
officials is made in a letter received today
at the department from G. E. Waldo Of 32
Liberty street, New York.
Mr.. Waldo gives complete history OF
Hoffman's case, from which it appears that
he was born in Germany, but came to this
country before he had reached the age OF
fourteen years. His father was natural
ized during Hoffman's minority. which, ac-
corGing to our law, made Jacob Hoffman
an American citizen. He is said to have
neglected to have taken out a passport
when he went to Germany.
The State Department will refer the case
Immediately to Ambassador White at Ber-
lin, who will communicate directly with
Hoffman, and If he finds the facts to be as
above stated will call the attention of the
German officials to the Illegal detention OF
the young man.
