 SOLDIERS 1T THE HOSPITAL.


 Wikof TO-day-S5O to Give the Com valoscing Boys Rldes-Kind Attention shown by Miss Bulford-I14 Sick Soldiers Here.
 There are now at the New Haven hospital ninety nine sick soldiers, and the last lot of fifteen or more is eN- pected to-day from Montauk Point. This will make at least IA at the hos pital. Already the four large tents erected on the hospital grounds to ac- commodate the sick heroes have been filled, and the chapel has been filled with cots furnished by the Associated Charities, part of these being occupied by the men brought yesterday Enough cots have been placed in the chapel to accommodate those who will arrive to- day. Those in the chapel are the light CT cases, none being dangerously sick. The chapel has been arranged to give them every comfort and a table and dish closet have been placed in the cor ridor near the door leading into the chapel, and at this table those of the men able to walk eat their meals. Daily large quantities of flowers are received at the hospital for the soldiers, and the table in the corridor bears several large beautiful bouquets.
 Miss Cornelia Bulford, one of the reg ular woman visitors of the hospital, was there all day yesterday attending to the wants of the soldiers and waited on those who sat at the table for their meals, her many kind attentions being greatly appreciated by the boys.
 It is expected that within a few days some of those most seriously ill will be moved from the tents to the wards as fast as room can be made for them. The request for barbers to volunteer their services and shave the soldiers has been answered well by barbers of the city, the following having volun- teered and been accepted: Henry c. Noll, J. Robes, Augustus Longstein of steamer No. 4, William H.. Ehle and Ralph ,Pastore.
 Superintendent Starkweather receiv- ed yesterday another $1OO in response to the call for funds needed to provide for the sick, making $350 received by him thus far. One well known New Haven man sent in $50 yesterday with a re- quest that it be used in giving the boys rides about the city as soon as they are able to go out. Two men were given a ride yesterday afternoon. One private, who is able to walk about little, came down town yesterday afternoon. He was walking along Church street when he grew faint, not being equal to the exertion of walking so far after his ill., ness, and stepped into a cigar store. He was quickly surrounded by an in- terested crowd and piled with questions as to his experiences in Cuba. He wore a regulation army campaign hat, through the top of which were two Mauser bullet holes. A well known young attorney, seeing the hat and bull let holes, offered to buy new hat for the soldier if the latter would give him the army hat. The offer was accepted and the lawyer became the possessor of fine souvenir.
 Moses Webb, the colored trooper who
 
 is much better than when he was re- ceived, and he is expected to recover. Every day now relatives of the sick men are arriving in the city, and yes- terday the mother of Private Megies came to see her soldier boy.
 Of the men received yesterday only one is seriously i'll. He is Washington Allen, jr., of Howell, Mich, Company r, Twenty fifth United States infantry. Dr. Carmalt went over to Montauk on the Red Cross yacht last night and will return on the boat when it brings it's load of sick to-day.
