THE WAR INVESTIGATION.
Chaplain Kelly Says the Volunteer
Were Like Children.

WASHINGTON. Dec. A-Rev. Father
Kelly, chaplain al the Sixth Illinois yolun-
teer infantry. In testifying before the war
investigation commission today as to The
conditions at Camp Alger. Va, said that
the food In quality and quantity. as far as
he knew, was good but there was difficulty
In getting at 1t. No one seemed able to
get medical supplies. He thought the men
from the cities made the best soldiers being
accustomed TO irregular hours. His only
real objection TO the camp was It's proxm-
lily to large towns. to which the men could
sneak OF and get full" 1t seemed TO him
the sanitary conditions of the camps gem
orally depended upon the care given by the
Officers to the men. for the men were moth
ing but grown children
Dr. Benjamin +. Pope who was chief
surgeon In the Shafter expedition In Cuba,
and In charge of the camp at Tampa early
teTais enough 20 care for 5000 wouDdt d
We're taken aboard the transports The
supplies of drugs however, did not keep
UP with the demand at the camp, and he
teiegraphed 10 the surgeon general for a
fun supply. \ part of those then sent ste
ceelied in reaching him. He ascribed the
woes of ths, medical department in that
expedition 10 the wholesale abandonment
Of the regimsnfal outfits OF medicines and
stores by the regiments. He did not know
who was responsible for this. but conceded
II vas hardly likely that 40 sweeping an
abandonment would have been made save
on orders from Mai. Gen. Snafter. who COM
wounded men were loaded in heavy, joiting
army wagons and that this aggravated
the suffering, but he only knew OF one n
stance In which death might be aScTibed
10 such transportation,
The travel ration. pr. Pope said. was
hard fare for even a well man, and only
uuder a skillful cook could II be made
pruIyer food for a convalescent. There was
no rnaney on hand TO purchase food, and
he had ordered il 10 tie purchased and put
aboard the transports. He believed this
had been done
Witness testified 10 almost chronic
shortage OF drugs. which had caused him
srea, trouble ard naeasiness. When the
Relief arrived she WAS supposed 10 have
7G tons % supplies on board but though
she WAS uniu2det on the fefh or 18th, the
drugs "a cut again about July ~.
I}r Conner remarked that the shortage
OF drugs seemed TO he ohroFiic every where
except ~ Monisuk
C.sa Dodge asked: Pleas state how
yau were supported in yonr administration
by the commanding general
Il think. said Mr. Pope. that the com
naraing general always listened 10 my
views and gave me every support military
conditions would permit. He pronrulgat 90
the orders and sanitary regulations | sag

where he failed 20 support me.
