ALGER, AT MONTAUK FONT.

ALGER' AT MONTAUK FONT.
The recent visit Of Secretary Alger
to the soldiers camp at Montauk
Point, opened his eyes and the eyes
OF the people to many things regard
ing the management Of camps and the
causes of the suffering endured by
our sick and we'll soldiers. Hereto.
fore Secretary Alger and the war de-
psrtment have been blamed for much
that it is probable can be accounted
for only by the brutality and criminal
csrelessness OF the executive officers.
Thus Secretary Alger found at
Msntauk, owing to the jealousy, In
competency and inbumsnity Of the
officials, and to their red tape, that it
took them three days to get a
physicians order for wine filed by
the commisssry department, while
the Red Cross nurses got the wine in
five minutes. He found the soldiers
without fresh bread, while a CON-
plete baking outfit, capable Of supply
ing 10000 men, was at the depot
only a mile from camp waiting for the
"proper" person to give orders to
put it up. He found the soldiers
without cots and blankets, with thou
sands of cots and blankets at the
depot waiting for the local officials to
get through their red tape. For the
same reason the soldiers had no fresh
milk. He found the medical depart
ment hindering the Red Cross all il
could instead of helping it. He
found that an order he had sent out
three weeks ago that delicscies should
be furnished sick soldiers at all army
hospitals had been held up by some
subordinate at Washington and not
delivered: These and many ether
things, Secretary Alger found out.
He rcmedied the deplorable evils as
fast as he could issue orders, but, as
one correspondent says,I"he violated
army regulations every minute" while
doing so. But he had been in camp
but a few hours before the soldiers
had fresh milk and bread, blankets
and cots and all the delicscies for the
sick that money could get. He Of
iicislly recognized the Red Cross, by
ordering that any requisition from the
head Of the society there, should be
honored Immediately. He had the
camp grounds thoroughly cleaned
though the officials in charge had
been unable TO do so. In fact, after
q stay of three days, he left Camp
Wikoff a model camp with the SOL
dicrs sick and we'll, abund antly pro-
vided with everything necessary, and
when be departed his last order was
that neither money nor pains should
be spared in providing for the men.

THE most marked difference le-
tween the management Of the army
hospitals and the Red Cross hospi-
tails seems TO be the absence Of red
tape from the Red Cross. To that
may be added that the Red Cross
nurses and officials are such from a
sense of duty, while the army officials
and physicians owe their positions TO
their political pull in most instances.
