SUPPLIES FOR SOLDIERS.
GOVERNMENT UNABLE TO DELIVER THEM-How

Washington. Aug. A number OF inquiries have
come 10 the War Department from officers OF
auxiliary regimental organizations in the various

the suggestion Is made that the best means would
be by draft on New-York City. as the presumption
now is that business will be opened promptly be-
tween financial institutions In the cities of New
York and those taken by our army. To send
money TO the soldier boys In the United States
drafts New-York can be used as we'll as
checks on reliable banks In the localities from
which the money is transmitted. As 10 sup
plies other than those for hospital purposes the
Government has steadfastly except In rare cases
refused 10 transport them TO the commands for
which they are intended There is no fund avail
able for such shipment. and they should be sent
by express or freight, according their character
The rule OF the Department applies alike 10 sup
plies intended either for the soldiers in the United
States or those in Cuba Porto Rico and the Philip
pines. For the army I'm the Islands organizations
should snip supplies by some responsible steamship
company which will guarantee their safe delivery.
This is omethng the Government cannot do. even
should it consent to ship free the delicacies de-
signed for the men. as Is nstanccd in the case OF
supplies sent with Skaters army, some OF which
came back to Tampa twice without being unloaded.
In the matter of fosptal necessares. the Govern
