Believed to Exist at Camp Wikoff.
MoNTAUK POINT, N. Y, Aug. 30
The rumor that there is yellow fever
in the camp here and that the truth is
| being concealed by officials continues
strong. There is no way to find out
the facts in the matter for the 5S men
| from the Catania are kept SO far away
from any body else that there is no
way of communicating with them.
The surgeon in charge of these men
and the nurses who care for them are
as carefully quarantined as the patients
| themselves, SO that there is no way of
getting information through them.
The daily supply of food and medicine
is taken to q point about 250 yards from
the guard line and left there. After
the carriers have withdrawn, nurses
from the isolated camp come out and
get it. Two deaths from yellow fever
are reported as having occurred in
camp.

Said to be Behind the Cars Pro-
poSdlS.
LONDON, Aug. 30.-Queen Victoria S
influence is really at the bottom Of the
extraordinary movement for universal
peace begun by the czar. The queen
has insisted that there must be no war
in Europe during her lifetime. Her
wish has been at the bottom of the
British foreign policy for years.
European diplomats have known that
England would not fight. She would
90 to any lengths but could always be
depended upon to back down at the
critical moment. German and Russia
especially have presumed upon THE
knowledge.
Salisbury has been the prime minis
ter who must, perforce, back down.
He has often done it gracefully, some
times with advantage, but has always
done it. No prime minister was ever
more heavily handicapped or occupied
a more difficult position.

Weed of the czar's proposition.

Soldiers Charged With Burglary.

Two soldiers got out on . high lone
some last night and one of them, W. E.
Barry, now lies in the county jail char
ged with burglary. The other made
good his escape and up to the hour of
going to press has not been captured.
1t seems that these two put third man
to bed at the Lindell hotel in q drunk
en- condition. and as the statement goes,
the drunken man gave them some mon
ey with which to gamble. They play
ed and lost and returned to the room of
their friend at the Lindell hotel to get
more money.
Not finding the room to his door
open one OF them crawled through the
transom and opened the door from the
inside. After having done this he pro-
ceeded to search his friends clothes
for money and secured some, but just
how much it is impossible to tell. They
then left the building on . run and
were detected by the officers, who
gave chase and captured Barry.

Story of Heartless Surgeons.

Story OF HedrIlcSS SuTgSOnS.
CHICKAMAUGA, Aug. ,30.-The death
of Private Nunnes, of the ambulance
company of the hospital corps, I'd divi-
sion Sd corps, develops one of the most
sickening stories of brutality that
have vet come to light at Chickamau-
ga.
Captain O'Connor, of the 9th kNew
York, relates this story: Nunnes was
of good family, 80 years old and robust.
He had been sick only five days when
he died. The corpse was given no
attention until yesterday. No ice was
used, though an autopsy had been held.
The body was lying on cot entirely
naked, and covered with insects.
The doctors, being asked why they
had not notified the mans family, said
they left that for his captain in the am
bulsnce corps to attend to. Then the
captain and the doctors had q wrangle
as to who was to blame. Being asked
whysth body was not dressed, the doc
tors said the man had no clothes.
"Did the man come here naked?"
asked Captain O'Connor. "No sir,
but he had no clothes" When they
heard thst the attention of Governor
Black of New York had been called to
the matter. q suit of clothes was in
stantly found, the body sponged off,
dressed, and fixed for burial. The re-
mains lay right against tent full of
sick soldiers.
Captain O'Connor last night prefer
red charges against Major Smith,
Major Raymond, and Major Hubbard,

ALGER AND MILES
The Secretary Still Affects To
Doubt Mlles'S Interview

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-Secretsry
Alger still affects to believe that the
Miles interview ia not genuine. II
would seem that he is the only man in
public life in Washington to entertain
this view of the case, and yet, better
than any other man in public life in
Washington, he knows the truth Of all
that Miles has charged.
This morning when asked: GLOW
about General Miles's interview" 81
do not believe q word of it," replied
AIger. 81 do not think there is q par
ticle OF truth in it. Miles would not do
a thing which ne knows would subject
him to arrest and imprisonment. A
man does not cut his own throat need
lessly.''
"Will Miles be given q chance to ex-
plain?" "Somebtdy else may ask him
about it, was the only reply the secre-
tary vouchsafed.
Commenting upon the criticisms
against himself, Alger concluded by
saying: 81 am not the man to run in
the face of fire. Some newspapers and
some persons are endeavoring to force
me out of the cabinet. They cannot do
it. They are endeavoring to besmirch
my reputation. They cannot do it. If
the opportunity arises 1 will fight
back. If attacks are made upon me by
the press of which the law can take
notice, 1 will send my accusers to jail.

the possibility of furnishing some of

When The Governor oi bIlssls-

was the greatest man that had ap-
peared on earth since the death Of
Jesus Christ he made n statement
which is hardly tenable. Some
people will be surprised that the
governor made any exception at
all, while others pondering upon
the fact that such men as St. Paul,
Dante, Shakespeare, Goethe, Ma
poleon, Washington, Jefferson,
Clay, Calhoun, Webster, Bismarck
Gladstone, Pitt, Fox, Lincoln, Lee
and StonewaIl jackson have lived
since the time of Christ will be
surprised that any sober man
should have made such q silly
statement at all. Mr.. Bryan is a
young man of fine oratorical gifts,
who made remarkable canvass
for president and was defeated;
and 1t in no way detracts from our
appreciation OF his character or
his talents to deny that he is di-
vine. e.-Commercial-Appeal.
