promises TO use the powers Of government
to help a class of citizens to make money

1t is not a function of government TO

be interfering in such affairs. IT is the
function of government to see TO it that
each citizen has the same right that every

HANNA IS ONLY HAPPY
THAT MORE SOLDIERS HAVE NOT

The Efforts of the War Department Not
Only Satisfactory but Marvel
ously Successful

CLEVELAND, Sept. IN. A. Hanna
has returned to Cleveland after months
outing In the Yellowstone park and north
west. In the course Of an interview con-
corning the reported sufferings in army
camps, Mr.. Hanna said:
II do not care to place the blame for the
conditions upon any one. l will. say, how
ever, that the governors Of the different
states appointed the volunteer officers and
We find that the illness among the troops
comes from the volunteer ranks. The
places for the location Of the camps were
selected because of their availability and
the general climatic conditions.
Regular troops have been camped by
the side of the volunteers and no sickness
among them. 1 do not wonder that the
death rate has been high in some instances.
Several times 1 visited Camp Alger and
looked carefully over the place. At the
edge of the camp l found banana stands
and places where beer and pop and such
stuff we're sold to the troops. This kind
Of stuff never helped the volunteers.
Look at the task which has been per-
formed by the administration. At the out
break Of the war there was provision for
but 5000 men. I am acquainted person.
ally with the heads Of the war department
and I am positive that they worked from
sixteen to eighteen hours each day to equip
and arm this great army of 275 900 or 300 900
men. The whole affair seems marvellous to
me and could not have been accomplished
by any other nation In the world. The war
department had most stupendous task

"Under the military governorship now
IN existence It will be soon cleaned and
made thoroughly healthy. It Is a pretty
town, but the surrounding country is in a
state of wreck. You cannot imagine the
restitution of the Island Of Cuba"
what do you think Of the Spanish hos

"Those in Santiago are as good as any
in the world. My surgeons tell me they In
spected them carefully and never saw bet

ptal there will hold 1000 patients comfort

"Only a few. fear that most OF them
are dead. But the death rate in Santiago
has dropped from eighty a day to thirty
five. and most Of the deaths are of old
people or children who had not recovered
from the starvation which they had en-
dured.'
when will the military occupation Of
the island occur?"
"Some time in the latter part of Octo-
ber," was the answer.
"You asked me about the use Of cavalry
in Cuba, and I reply that If We have got
to go down there and fight the Cuban guer-
rillas we shall want the cavalry beyond
question. Otherwise not. hope that small
garrisons Of Infantry scattered over the
country will suffice"

CHICAGO, Sept. 2.-Iron and Steel will

almost all kinds of iron and steel products

ume of business. On the contrary, the ac-
tivity is greater than ever.
Without exception all branches OF the
iron and steel industries are in a most

ing business because they cannot make de-
liveries. Railroads are ordering whatever
lots of rails they can secure for this sea-

ing the second division. Third Corps, hos

hove been made. Soldiers who have had
hospital service and others who have had
insight into Its workings are being exam

Discussing the Investigation, General
Breckenridge says he intends to see that
every point is thoroughly aired, and if
II is proven that any persons are guilty
Of neglect and mismanagement. the blame
will be placed upon their shoulders and
they will be punished accordingly.
Six prominent Chattanoogans, four Of
them leading physicians, have preferred
charges against Major Hubbard, Surgeon
General of the Ninth New York. They
charge him with being responsible for the
death of Sergeant Frank, who was struck
by train few days ago. and with con-
duct unbecoming an officer and gentle
man. II is claimed that Major Hubbard
caused the removal of Sergeant Frank
when his life might have been saved by
keeping him quiet, and that when other
physicians expostulated with him he
used language unbecoming a gentleman
and an officer.
A court-martial Is demanded.
