G.u. Shaftsr's Dispatches.

X Important features OF the news this
morning are the two statements from
General shafter with reference to the
"RSund Robins" signed by the general
oncers of his command concerning the
health situation among the troops at
Santiago. and denying all responsibility
for the inadequate provision for the sick
and wounded brought from Santiago to
the United States on the Seneca and
concho, 1t appears, from his state
ment, that neither he nor the surgeons
had leftlanythins undone that could be
done for the care of the men, with the
faclities at their disposal. The short
age of water, he declares, was inexcus-
able. nor was there excuse for lack OF
food
Concerning the Round Robin" letter
General SKATER declares that the ex-
element 1t caused was DOT warranted
BY the situation, and makes clear
statement that the great amount Of
sickness was due almost wholly TO the
twenty days exposure during the cam
paign before the surrender: that troops
there now under present conditions
would sufter little If any from sickness.
The premature publication of the COM
municatIon referred to, 10 view Of the
pending peace negotiations, gave the
government no little anxiety, since, as
General shafter says, they conveyed an
exaggerated idea Of conditions to the
public and 70 Europe.
IN connection with the matters re-
serred to. Is the report of Captain Mum
con, assistant surgeon general, dated
July .. concerning the conditions ex-
isting at Santiago, explaining the dis
advantages under which the medical
department: operated In Cuba from the
dime OF the landing Of the shatter
expedition to the end OF the cam
paign. It appears from this report that
the exigency OF the situation, when
pack train was suggested by the chief
surgeon for the transportation of med
ieai supplies with the troops after the
landing. did NOT appeal to the cnmmand-
ing general. and that a launch request
ed for the collection OF medical supplies
from the various transports. was not
turnlshed for two days.
other matters of Interest In this con-
nectIon appear in the report, which
throw considerable light on the sltua-
ton as II existed. Responsibilities for
any neglect or lack OF foresight are yet
TO be fixed. The pubiic should suspend
judgment.

There is only one way to cure deafness
and that Is By constitutional remedies.
Deafness Is caused by an ln1amed con-
dition Of the mucous lining Of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube IS in-
famed Vou have a rumbllng sound or
imperfect hearing. and when 1t Is en-
trely closed, Deafness is the result.
and unless the Inflammation can be ta-
ken out and this tube restored to Its
normal condition, hearing will be de-

are caused by catarrh, which Is nothing

course Of lectures at the West Virginia
University, shocked the religious SEN

the tide of indignation against him was

gives the strongest proofs in support OF
this statement, and sclenSlsts In gener-

who has the reputation. OF being con-
sdeptious Christian, says that Genesis Is
an al4egory.
Yet neither he nor DR.. Ward, deny the
creation Of man; but the question they
raise Is In what form was he created:
as he Is row, physscasiy and mentally
great? as an inferior creature lacking
the qualities that distinguish MN tfon

The entire country will rejoice that
shafters troops are being removed to a
safer climate in their beloved land, after
having faced worse dangers than Maui
ser rides in the hands Of Spanish sol
dlera. And yet this army Is by no
means weakened In the cause for which
1t has done such splendid work. The
men are quoted as being ready, after
their needed recuperatlon, to undertake
the Havana campaign. Fortunately,
the capture of Havana will not be nee

Pittsburgh Times: When the war
commenced it was the custom with the
dlaoyal to perpctually complain about

war would be failure unless the eoun-
try followed his bonlbastic nonsense.
