THE CAMP AT MoNTAUK.
Conditions in the Hospitals Greatly
Improved.

Nontauk Point. n. Y, Aug. Coon
,diiions in the hospitals at Camp WI
knf are in a better condition today than
courJ have been expected yesterday
whom there were 800 patients in the beds
and some 500 more to care for. The
transports, which arrived Saturday night
and Sunday. brought 554 sick, but al
though there was room for them IN the
hospital annex, which was erected yes
terday, no attempt was made to land
them. This will be done later.
The situation was relieved by an or
der received last night directing Col.
Forwood to send the Olivet.e to- Bos-
ton with her 1872 sick. 1t has already
been acted upon and the ship Is being
supplied with additional food and med
icines. She Is expected to sail today.
The Rio Grande. which was selected
by Col. Forwood as the best of the trans
ports now at Fort Pond Bay. for use as
a hospital ship.~was placed in the hands
Of workmen yesterday and is undergo
ing repairs preparatory to taking the 800
convalescents who vii be sent to the
hospitals at Forts Columbus. Wads-
worth and Hamilton. DR.. Magruder ex-
amined all of the transports and pro-
nounced the Rio Grande to be the clean
est In the lot.
When these sick have been taken away.
Col Forwood said, there will be no more
danger of the hospitals becoming con-
gested in the future. The anxiety follow
ing the announcement made last week
that several cases of yellow fever had
developed from among the fever cases in
the hospital, has been almost entirely
done l&yay with by the positive statement
made BY Dr. Nunez that at no time has
there been single case of yellow fever
pest in the camp. The announcement was
bulletined at the camp. and several hum
dred soldiers fiocked to the hospital lines
at once, believing that the quarantine
had been lifted.
The serenity of the camp has been some
what disturbed by complaints from the
regulars that too great a difference is
being made in the distribution of extra
rations between them and the volunteers.
While the Rough Riders are eating all
manner of good things, the Sixth and
Third Cavalry men have only beef. pork,
beans and bread. This is not the fault
of the camp government. as the delicacies
that the volunteers enjoy come from
friends.
Lieut. Gov. Hale, of Massachusetts,. who
visited the camp yesterday, offered to
send a large supply of fruit soups
and canned meats here for the regulars,
and before the end of this week the reg
ulars will be happy.
