STERNBERG At WORK.
Planning Winter Hospitals For the
Sick Soldiers.
ONE READY AT FORT MONROE
Another Likely to BE Located Mt
Charleston or Snvannah-Medical
Board Appointed to Inspect
All Available Places.

Washington, Sept. 13.-Surgeon Gen.
eral Sternbelg has furnished some de-
tails of the plans of the war depart
ment for the establishment of two large
well equipped winter hospitals for the
troops. He said that without attract
ing much attention the medical depart
ment had for some time been at work
erecting such hospital on the govern
ment reservation at Fort Monroe, and
he was pleased to be able to announce
that Lieutenant Colonel Woodruff, the
surgeon in charge, had reported that
the hospital would be ready for the re-
ception of troops next Friday. There Is
already at the fort tent hospital, in
excellent shape, capable of accommo-
dating 500 patients. The new hospital
will be additional to this, will be con-
structed of lumber after the style Of
regular barracks and will contain 1000
beds. 1t Is intended for the reception
of sick soldiers returning from Porto
Rico.
Looking ahead to the possibility Of an
extended OCCUPANCY of Cuban ports by
the United States army, with the result
ing requireme nts upon the medical de-
partment for the care of sick soldiers
| Surgeon General Sternberg is planning
| for another hospital on an even larger
scale at some of the southern ports be-
| low Fort Monroe and more accessible
| from Cuba. He has appointed medic a
| board to make an inspection of the
available places, and the impression
prevails that the hospital will be located
either at Charleston or Savannah. TIT
hospital ships Resolute and Missouri
are under orders to prepare imme date!
for a return trip to Porto Rico to brin,
back any sick soldiers requiring hom
treatment.
Preparing For Long Trip.
The navy department is shifting som
of the officers on the battleships Oregol

WASHINGTON, July 6.-The plan of
feeding the starving Cubans is proceed
ing systemati cally, despite the atten-
ton which the authorities are obliged to
give to the war. These plans are being
carried out by the commissary depart
ment of the army. Yesterday large
consignments of food were being loaded
on the steamer Port Victor at New
York, viz, 5000 pounds of corn meal,
562, 900 pounds of flour, 100000 pounds
of bacon, 10000 pounds of coffee, 150,-
600 pounds of sugIr, 10000 pounds of
soap, 10000 pounds of salt and 5000
pounds of pepper.
These will be made up into rations
and distributed over a wide territory to
the Cubans. This is but one of several
consignments, fs the work of relief has
been going ON for the past two months,
hundreds of thousands of government
rations being distributed. The supplies
will now include refrigerated and cold
storage beef for the Cuban troops and
the reconcentrados. The first consign-
ment of this kind willeave Tampa on
next Saturday, aud WI be sufficient to
last until the next consignment of re-
frigerated beef goes forward.
