Proposed to Increase the Regulars
to 100000.
A REPUBLICAN, PROJECT
CONGRESSMAN HULL Is PRE-
PAIRING THE BILL.
Believed That There Will Now Be
No Opposition From National
Guard sourees-More Regiments
of Volunteers to Be Mustered Out
Departures From Chickamauga.

New York, Aug. 27.-One of the i'm
portant matters which will occupy the
attention es congress at it's next ses-
sion Will be legislation to increase the
strength of the permanent military es-
tablishment, says the Washington cor
respondent of the Tribune. Chairman
Hull. of the committee on military at
fairs of the house of representatives,
The is in Washington. where he ex-
poets to remain until early in Novem-
Der, devoting much attention to the
subject. and has already discovered
that the war removed some of the more
formidable obstacles which hindered
and finally prevented the enactment of
a satisfactory law for the reorganiza-
ton and increase of the strength of the
army at the last session of congress.
Early in the coming session he will
introduce bill to correct the defects in
the existing law, and increase the
strength of the army on a peace foot
ing to 100000 enlisted men. He feels
confident that the measure will be
passed.
The strongest opposition to the reor-
ganization bill last D inter- and Spring
came from the representatives of the
national guard organizations in various
states. and it was effective to a con-
siderable extent. The experience of the
last four months. there is reason to be-
heve. has convinced that element as
well as great many congressman who
surrendered to its influence that the
opposition was ill-judged and unrea-
sonable. and that q reasonably strong
regular army, thoroughly equipped and
organized on modern basis, would be
a benefit rather than a drawback to the
national guard organizations.

cHIcKAMAUGA DEPARTURES.
Troops Are Leaving and Being Mus
tered Out.

Chickamauga, Aug. 27.-Three regi-
ments left Camp Thomas for Knoxville
today. They were the Second Missouri,
the Fifth Missouri and the Sixth Ohio.
The Southern railway, which is moving
most of the troops, now has things in
such shape that hereafter the regi-
ments will be moved rapidly. General
Breckenridge has made his arrange
ments accordingly, and expects to get
the whole of the First corps out during
the next two days
Just where the Third corps will go is
not yet positively settled The lack
of water facilities at Huntsville re-
ported by General Frank, has caused
a disarrangement of plans, which may
cause delay. The officials favor Annis-
ton, Ala, but it is probable that a
more thorough investigation will be
made before a definite decision is
reached.
The work of mastering out the Second
Nebraska is progressing rapidly, and
will probably be finished by Monday
night. As soon as the mastering Off
GERS dispose of this regiment they be-
gin upon the light batteries.
The sick in the regimental division
and general hospital are now receiving
the best of attention. Hundreds of pa
tents have been sent home during the
last few days, and the doctors and
nurses can we'll handle those remain
ing. A number of Sisters of Charity ar
rived today to assist in the hospital

Steamer Hope Returns From Her
Trip to Greenland.


Trip to Greenland.

er Hope arrived here last night from
her trip to Greenland, whittier she car
ried the Peary expedition. After leav-
ing Sydney, C. B., their first landing
was at Cape York, where natives were
expected to be found. The party was
disappointed, however, all the natives
having left. Without any delay, the
expedition then sailed for Snow Pocket
bay, but here again they were disap-
pointed. They then proceeded to
Saunders island, finding the natives
there in poor condition, they having
had an exceptionally bad winter, snow
falls which lasted for weeks forcing
them to quit their old haunts in quest
of food. The natives were delighted to
see Lieutenant Peary.
The Hope took on board number of
EsquimauX and sailed for Whale sound,
but, owing to the heavy ice pack, was
unable to get in. She came out all
right, though she received some bad
scars. The party then decided to re-
turn to Saunders island and spent a
fortnight there, during which time 90
walrus and a quantity of seals were OBJ
tanned. Then the Hope proceeded for
Moulko Fiord. She met the Windward
on the way. The latter is a poor ship
for this work, being unable to steam
to any advantage. the Hope leaving her
far behind on every occasion when they
left port together AT Moulko Fiord the
Hope started with Lieutenant Peary
and sailed south on the 18th inst, the
Windward leaving at the same time for
Sheard Osborne Fiord, where Peary
will make his quarters during the win
ter Beside the walrus, go dogs and
ten Esquimaux were taken north. Cap

EXAGGERATED STORIES.
Conditions at Chickamauga Are Bet
ter Than Reported.

Chickamauga, Chattanooga National
Military Park, Aug. 27.-The regiments
that left Camp Thomas today were the
Second and Fifth Missouri and the
Sixth Ohio. The destination of the two
Missouri regiments is Lexington, while
the Sixth Ohio Will so into camp at
Knoxville.
The sickness at Camp Thomas has
been greatly exaggerated by articles
that have recently been published in
some parts of the country. While there
are all told about 1,500 sick soldiers in
the hospitals at this park, only about
500 of this number are pronounced ty-
phoid fever cases and majority OF
these are not of a Viruient type This
statement is borne out by the death
rate. For instance, at the Sternberg
hospital, where there are 40 patients,
the death rate has been one and one
half per day. or three patients lost
every two days Immediately upon the
opening of the Sternberg hospital, on
the 10th inst, all the most virulent
cases of typhoid fever were trans
ferred to the division and regimental
hospitals. Instead OF deaths by the
wholesale, a visit TO the Sternberg hos
pital reveals that a large majority OF
the patients are improving ana that as
rule. they are cheerful and hopeIul.
In ten days 30 patients have so far re-
covered as 10 be sent home on fur-
loughs.
The hospital covers about Is acres of
ground, and consists of 200 tents and
Is pinewood pavilions, each of the lat
ter being 1SX56 feet, and provided with
beds for the accommodation of 20 pa
tients. The total capacity of the hos
pital is 1000 patients. The bedsteadS
are of iron, on which are woven wire
mattresses, on which IS laid all ele-
CANT hair mattress, six inches in thick
ness. Through the surgeon general the
hospital is. supplied with all the deli
cacies necessary, including ice, milk,
spring chickens, etc. The hospital is
provided with a crematory in which all
refuse matter is reduced TO ashes, while
Major Giffen added a disenfectant
plant, in which all linens are thorough
ly disinfected before being sent out for
laundry.
