its columns, General Wheeler said that
if the soldiers had not been landed at
some isolated place such as Montauk
Point, the fear Of yellow fever would
have caused general outcry. It
would have been cruel to send the men
home within five days after landing,
as Dr. jenkins had suggested Many
of them were sick men and needed at
tention in the hospitals.
Replying to other allegations made
by the World" General Wheeler said
he did not think the hospitals were
crowded, that if the sick were without
blankets or adequate shelter. he had
not known the fact and if he had
known such want he would have sup
piled it. There was no red tape; he
mentioned one case in which he had tel
egraphed to New York for four car
loads of medicine and it had arrived
on the evening of the next day. He
had read to the regular soldiers the as
sertion that they had been in an al
most starving condition, and they
laughed at the report The men as
serted that the only trouble was that
they had too much; and as matter of
fact, no soldiers had ever been so well
supplied.
At o'clock, the commission ad-
journed until tomorrow, when General
Wheeler will resume his testimony.

commission that he will not be able to

ton and a speedy movement to the
front would impress the enemy more
than anything else we could do.'
There was also a shortage at this
time of transportation facilities. The
deficiency OF transportation after the
landing was the reason why the tents
We're not brought up, why the siege
guns were not brought up and why
many things were not done.
After a recess, General Wheeler de-
voted his testimony chiefly to his ex-
perience at Wikoff, Montauk Point.
The President, on giving him COM
mand there, had ordered him to spare
no pains or expense to make the men
comfortable. He made an examina-
ton Of the camp and >ound it neces-
sary to undertake much preparation to
care for the men properly, TO bore wells,
lay water pipes, build laundries, disin-
fecting plants, get floors for the tents,
erect hospitals, etc.
The general location and the trans
portation facilities of the camp were
poor. There was but one line of rail-
road and that a single track and with
out adequate terminal facilities. The
camp could. he said, have been sup
piled by water, but unfortunately there
was a contract with the railroad COM
pany owning the land which gave 1t the
control of all transportation except that
on Government transports. This con-
tract had been made, he understood, in
return for the use Of the land He
did not know who had made the con-
tract
There were good hospitals erected,
but there was a scarcity Of nurses. He
Immediately wired for nurses and with
in five or six days there was an abun-
dance. He summoned the surgeons
for consultation each morning and
would Immediately order any article
needed.
The hospital tents, he said. were all
floored. The patients were laid upon
mattresses on the floor, and were sup
piled with clean bedding From first
to last, 10000 patients entered the hos
pitals at Montauk. The hospitals had,
when he landed, capacity - not to
exceed 800 and so far as he knew, the
hospitals had up to this time been
equal to the demands upon it. Over
1922 of the Santiago tSeops had been
reported sick on arrival, but many
others of the arrivals were really sick.
General Wheeler considered the hos
pital facilities ample after the erection
of the division hospitals. There were
times when they were crowded for a
day or two. but on the other hand
there were many times when the build
ings were not filed.

Spanish Troops Sailing for Home

SAN JUAN porto Rico), Oct. A.
delayed in transmission 1.-The trans
port P. de Satrustegui arrived here
yesterday from Spain and is now TAX
ing on board troops to-day. She will
sail tomorrow.
The transport Isla de Panay sailed
for Spain to-day with 1900 troops on
board.
1t is rumored that Captain General
Macias will leave here on the Alicade,
which is expected daily at this port
from Havana.
The United States hospital ship Sol
ace, with fifty-five convalescents on
board sails for New York to-day, and
the Mayfower will sail this afternoon.
She is due to arrive in New York on
October 10th. Her commander has COL
lected evidence here concerning the
French steamer Rodriguez, a prize Of
the New Orleans last June. The ques-
ton to be determined is whether the
Rodriguez attempted to enter the port
Of San Juan. The opinion Of tn towns
people here clearly affirm that the
Rodriguez intended entering. The
Mayfower carries to New York as a
witness Seregio Lowe, who is asserted
to hav been on duty at the semaphore
station at MORO Castle on the day Of
the New Orleans Rodriguez affair.
The Spanish troops were evacuating
Caguas yesterday, and Arocibo will be
delivered over to the Americans to-
morrow. The American troops are
closing in rapidly and the Spaniards
are concentrating in large numbers at
this place. The Spanish Government s
offer of free transportation home to the
families Of officers has resulted in many
marriages of departing officers and
officials.
Dating from the last day of Septem-
Der, the Spanish Government has de-
clared vacant a long list Of civil gov
ernmental positions.
