Wanted

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 2--Dr. A. M. How
er, of Kearney, Nebraska, major in COM
mand of the first division hospital,
third army corps, passed through St.
Louis today with the Second Nebraska
regiment. He has the following
to say about war department
methods: SIN defiance of what Sur
geon General Sternberg has said on
the subject of division hospitals at
Chickamauga the reason that the ne
cessary medical supplies were not used
for sick soldiers was that when most
urgently needed they were not shipped
to the park and could not be had.
For six weeks we were practically
without drugs, and the Lord only
knows what became of the acquisitions

tions. The city health officer was ask
ed this morning in regard to the mat

We have now four altogether, as one
was found the other day after you saw
me. l have three families in the pest
house and 1 am watching the infected
part OF the town very closely. AS soon
as a new case develops 1 will let you
know 30 as to inform the people, for
they ought to know exactly what is 60
ing on. There is no cause for big
scare, for we are looking after the dis
ease very closely.
81 received this morning fifty vac
cine points from the Missouri vaccine
farm at Webster Grove, Mo-, and I am
going to commence to vaccinate every
body. I guess I'll have to take a
policeman along with me when we
tackle the Mexican population as they
policeman along, why, 1 can't do q
thing. These vaccine points will con-
tinue to arrive fresh every day and in
that way l will always have fresh

and he said: TIE place where the
disease was first found and where the
other cases come from is down back of
the hide house. along the canal be-
tween it and Seventh street, and run
ming from South Ell Paso to South Ore

SHAFTER TALKS
He Says He Did the Best He Could
With Means Provided.

| CAMP WIKoFF, Sept. 2-After a
rest on shore Gen. Shafter has con-
sented to talk to a reporter. Regard
ing yellow fever he said that many
men hal yellow fever who will never
know it, and although the disease
spread like wild fire comparatively few
deaths occurred.
Most of the deaths, he said, were due
to calentura or heat attacks that un-
acclimated men have in Cuba. SIT
seems death in most cases. I'd a
damned sight rather have yellow few
err
AS to transports, he said he sent the
best he had. 1t was imperative that
the men should leave without delay
and he had no time to make changes in
vessels more than was absolutely nee
essary. In all cases the transports
took away twenty-five per cent. less
than they carried.
Shafter said he could not understand
the case of the Allegheny which
brought the Ninth Massachusetts,. He
said.this.reg regimentwas most.unfortunate
throughout the war. 1t lost it's colonel,
two majors, and several company Of
ficers, and had more sickness than any
other regiment there.
Regarding the Seneca and Concho
he said there were just grounds for a
charge of overcrowding, as the vessels
stopped everywhere along the route
and picked up men.
Regarding the treatment of wounded
and sick at Santiago he said: 1--WE
gave the sick all we could of what the
government provided. Cuba is des-
ert waste; nothing could be had
there"
Shafter declared that the Ell Csney
fight was the best of the campaign.
The men fought when almost dead with
fatigue.
Regarding the food supply Shsfter
said: There was plenty of food on
the beach, but only one almost impas-
sable trail to get it to the front. 1 had
to make the best of things and push
ahead while the men were vigorous, as
they were growing weaker hourly
He said he was not surprised at the
of the city, "but when Toral
spoke to me about surrenderipg all the
troops in the eastern provinces almost
fell over''
He positively refused to talk On the
scandal of the war department.

A People who Cannot Make Fire.

The Papuans of the Malay coast Of New
Guinea are still in the most primitive
state. They are wholly unacquainted with
metals and make their weapons of stone,
bones and wood. They do not know how
to start a fire, though fire is used among
them. When a Russian asked them how
they made a fire, they regarded it as very
amusing and answered that when a per-
sons fire went out he got some of a neigh
Dor, and II all the fires in the village should
60 out they would get 1t from the next
village. Their fathers and grandfathers
had told them that they remembered a
time or had heard from their ancestors that
there was o time when fire was not known
and everything was eaten raw. The ma
tives Of the southern coast Of New Guinea,
having no Iron, shave themselves with a
piece Of glass. Formerly they shaved with
flint. which they could sharpen quite well
