chief surgeon, 18th Army Corps, for the al
lowance of Two ratiors each to soldiers at
recuperation camp at Pablo Beach, Fla,
the commissary general recommended, ana
the Secretary of War approved on August
f. an allowance at the rate of 90 cents per
man per day 10 the patients in the hosplt Al
camp, payable from the appropriation Tor
subsistence of the army.
There was doubtless little in the nature
of special food for the diet of the sick to be
obtained in the midst Of or in the nolghbor-
hood of military operations IN Cuha, ana
little opportunity occurred, in the short
time between the landing of the troops in
that island and the embarkaton for home,
for the accumulation there of hospital funds
for the purchase by the medical department
of special supplies needed for the SICK, even
had there been a market accessible.
ION telegram to the adjutant general
from the commanding general of the 9TH
Army Corps. dated at Santiago, August =
1895 stating that there were no hospital
funds at Santiago, and requesting that
S. 900 be supplied by the medical depart
ment to the medical officer in charge there
for the purchase of delicacies for the sick
Gn that instance chickens. which were
there from the north). the commiSsary gen.
aral of subsistence recommended TO the
Secretary of War that the rations of the
sick in hospital at Santiago be commuted
at 10 cents per day. This recommendation
was approved by the Secretary of War for
the troops serving in Cuba. The Secretary
had generously manifested a Willingness to
the amount calleu 1Or from MS own
private means. A telegram was at once
sent by the commissary general of sub
sistence 10 the chief commissary at Santi-
ago informing him that the Secretary of
War had approved the commissary gener-
ais recommendation that rations of the
sick in hospital at Santiago be commuted
at 10 cents per day, stating that it would
cradle the hospitals to buy all the chickens
or other things necessary, and directing
him to show the telegram imm ediately TO
the banding general.
Notwithstanding this telegram, intended
as a reply to the telegram of the com
mandirg general, medical officers who re-
turned on the transports loaded with sick
troops had evidently to rely almost eX-
clllsively. if not entirely, on the ration of
the soldier for the diet of the sick during
the passage.
"On August the surgeon general request
ed that the rations of sick and wounded
men on hospital transports be commuted at
60 cents per day, to enable the medical Of
GERS to procure light diet for their patients,
and this request was faporably recommend
ed by the commissary general of suhsst-
ence to the Secretary Of War on August I,
payable from the appropriation for the sub
sisteace of the army. The request was ap-
proved and the order was afterward ex-
tended to include all field and post hospi-
tails, and ample provision was made for
furloughing convaiescents and paying them
combinations of ratons while travelling to
and from their homes.
