Of New-York arrived in Lenox Saturday from

OF last weeking making an investigation OF Camp

men. DR.. Kinnicutt's report will be made this
week. He was seen in Lenox to-day and in speak
ing Of the condition of the camp. said there un-
doubtedly has been great deal Of avoidable suf
fering the responsibility for which he was not
prepared to discuss and there was still many evils
to be corrected The chief menace TO the camp al
present he believed. was in its water supply and
drainage In the autumn storms likely to occur at
any time threatening in the exposed position Of
the camp the destruction OF hospital and regi-
mental tents Moreover. there was no way of
heating the hospital tents and some form of heat
ing speedily would be imperative. The supply OF
blankets seemed large, but blankets would not
afford adequate protection in the exposed position
of the tents.
DR.. Kinnicutt reports the food supply TO he
ample and of good quality. the administration of
the general hospital efficient and the medical
supply apparently sufficient. The number OF nurses
was adequate for the hospital service. at the date
OF his visit, but there not sufficient number
OF doctors for the best kind Of medical work
