At Chtcl<amauga Park.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Sept. 23.-Sec-
retary Alger and party visited Chicka-
lnauga park, where they spent the day
in a critical inspection of the hos
pitfalls over which there has been so
much controversy. Before leaving
Chattanooga Secretary Alger said to a
reporter:
1.-THE press has been disposed to exag-
gerate the condition Of some of the camps,
and things have been charged against the
war department which were untrue and un-
warranted. I want the facts. and all the
facts. to come out, and have nothing to
withhold from the public
THE great trouble has been that the
people have not appreciated the immense
problem OF forming an army of ESQ.,
600 volunteers without notice and with
out the necessary equipment. The Spanish
war came upon us almost like a bolt from a
clear sky. and 1t found every branch Of
the war department unprepared for the
task of equipping and handling such q vast
number of unframed men.
For time there was difficulty in fur
nishing supplies and equipment for the
troops, but that had to be expected. The
department had only a limited supply Of
tents. and 1t had practically no wagons and
ambulances to start with. There were a
thousand and one details to look after. and
a fairly disposed public will understand the
disadvantages under which the war depart
ment worked for many weeks. AS fast as
possible equipment and supplies were sent
to the several camps. and II there has been
lack Of medicines and necessaries Of life
the fault lies with the commanding officers
Of the camps.
There may have been some incompe-
tent officers. generals and colonels. In
charge Of some Of the camps. and II such
Is found TO be the case they will be held
strictly to account for their misdeeds
IF there are any commanding officers
who are now incompetent. or who fail to
keep them that way. / promise that they
shall be replaced by men who are compe.

conditions are established and MAIN

An eetimate Of tie amount and
nature Of land available for gen
o al purposes Of the Land Act for
the prod 1898 Q presents many
difficult y, but a review Of the un.
leased lands aud Of those uuder
leases 10 expire during the com
ing period gives the following re
suits: In the coffee belt $4,000 10
10000 acres; second class sgricul
tural land 10000 acres; pastoral
lands Of different grades 100000
acres; high forest lands (roughly)
10000 acres.
The demand during the period
has been almost wholly for coffee
lands, and this demand is expect
ed to continue until the supply is
exhausted. The government lands
suitable for this purpose are under
the disadvantage of being removed
far from existing main roads and
are frequently in small tracts to
which no main road can be ex.
pected to reach. The especial ex-
ception to this rule is the case OF
the large tract in one block which
lies back of the present occupied
Olaa tract. This is estimated to
contain fully 10000 acres fully as
good as that already developed.
To reach this tract new roads are
imperative and given such roads
there is little doubt of the produc.
ton of the same good results as
are now apparent in the present
Olaa settlement.
The following main roads are
especially recommended to be built
for the purpose Of opening up the
above and other tracts of land to
settlement:
I0 Olaa, a cross road from the
Volcano road, at or about the
fifteenth mile, to the unsurveyed
tract back of the present occupied
tract, and connecting with such
cross roads a line of road practi-
cally parallel with the Volcano
road for nine or ten miles through
agricultural land, to be ultimately
extended to Hilo and the Volcano.
An upper road say at an eleva.
ton of 1900 feet through the
Hamakua district to connect with
Waimea and Paauilo, would pass
through the center Of the Hama
kua coffee belt, and be of great
service to the lands already taken
up as well as the means of access
to new tracts of land. The con-
tinuation of such upper road
through the Hilo district would
develop large areas of government
and private land.
On the island of Maui road is
much needed through the Nahiku
lots, connecting with the existing
road to Hama.
The Commissioner complains of
the amount of correspondence
which required the attention of
himself and assistants in the Office.
In round numbers he says one
thousand communications were
received covering general sppli-
cations for land, miscellaneous
matters, subagents' and surveyors
