Arranging the Plans
Major Sylvester has a plan for the re-
/ ception that he hopes will receive the in
dorsement of his fellow laborers. The
plan the chairman viii present has not
as yet been completed in all its details.
/ and will not be until the committee sent
| TO Montauk Point make their report. 1t
! will probably include a march from the
| train past the grand stand erected oppo-
! site Lafayette Square, from which the
/ President will distribute the medals Of
commemoration which the committee pro-
! pose TO give to the returned soldiers. Col.
! Bingham, the superintendent of public
! buildings and grounds. heartily approves
! of the plan and will do everything in his
! power TO make the affair a success.
Everything depends on the report of
the committee sent TO Montauk Point .
| Major Sylvester said to a reporter for
| The Times last night. "If the troops are
/ in as bad a condition as the newspaper
reports say, they viii need large amount
! of good. wholesome food before they
could be made strong, enough to do any
marching or 10 stand the fatigue that
! the reception we expect to give them will
! be sure 10 cause.
'It will take at least three weeks for
! them to recover sufficiently TO be brought
! home, three weeks of the most careful
! nursing and watching, but | sincerely
hope they will be able to properly appre-
| ciate the good things we have in store for
/ them. There is one thing that is certain
! and that is we cannot do too much for
| them, and from present prospects it
seems that every resident of the District
realizes this and is ready to do his or her
| share to make the reception a success
Major Sylvester has been very active
| in arranging to secure accurate informa-
| ton regarding the condition of the sick
! and soon as he hears from Montauk
Point the plan of reception will be made
] public.
