coL. THEo. ROOSEVELT SUMMONED
Invited to Testify Before the War In- vestigation Commission During It's Session at New York-Why So
 Many Died at Montauk.

New York, November 19.-When the war Investigating commission met today Gen. eral Dodge the chairman, announced that the sessions in the city will probably con tinue ten days General Dodge declined to give in advance the names of those he ex- pected to examine but it was said that in- vitations had been sent to Colonel Roose- welt and other members of the Rough Riders.
 Captain Edward P. Hummer, of the Tenth cavalry, who was an aide de camp on General Shafter's staff was brigade quartermaster with the fifth corps at Shaf- ter's headquarters near Santiago. He ex- plained that as brigade quartermaster it was his duty to take food to the front.
 On July he started for the front with wagons of rations.
 Orders from General Shafter stopped the train because an engagement was immi- nent. After the fight he saw General Shaf- ter and obtained permission to follow the ammunition wagons and unload provisions sufficient for all the men on the fighting line early in the evening of July l, on the flat at the San uuan hill.
 Captain Hummer said that the transpor- tation was limited, but he did not believe that more wagons could have been used, because of the limited facilities for loading the wagons in Siboney and the narrowness of the roads over which the supplies had to be drawn. From motives of prudence, General Shafter ordered that wagons should not go too close to the trenches.
 Was there any serious distress among the men in the trenches on account of their inability to get supplies?"
 No Serious Distress
 ''I heard of none. On the night of July l, l met some men of my regiment and asked them if they needed anything. They told me that they had eaten all they want ed. Captain Taggart of the Sixth infan- try told me that on July 3, after the fights, he had accumulated a days rations ahead for Kelt's diyision.'
 Major Lorigan, Ninth New York, said he served as private in the Eighth New York in the civil war. He considered the supplies served to the Ninth fairly good and sufficient. He had heard complaints of -tke food, but considered them due to the inexperience of the men and their lack of sense to use properly the food issued to them. It was only by accident when a cook or waiter was a member of a com pany that the food was properly cooked at Chickamauga.
 How about the medical treatment?"

The water was drawn from wells 200
and 300 feet deep. Women passing
through the camp were displeased by
seeing that some tents did not have

true.

Y, Sept. 5.-This great camp will dis
solve during the three coming weeks
and by Oct. / it will probably have
shrunk to slender proportions. The
well men, according to the war depart
ment's present designs, will leave the
camp as fast as transports can be con-
veniently provided, probably at the rate
of 5000 or 4, 900 a week. The conval.
escent from the hospitals, instead Of
being sent again into camp with their
commands, will go to their homes. The
president. Secretary Alger and General
Wheeler had talk about it Saturday
and although General Wheeler thought
the men would do we'll in camp until
Oct. /, it was determined to continue
sending the men away. The regulars
taken from the posts east of the Missis-
sippi will, according to the president s
directions, be sent where they were be-
fore the war.
The Eighth Ohio and First Illinois
are expected to break camp tomorrow.
