BE Distilled nr-1 Measures Taken to
Prevent spread of Typhoid.

Colonel Moore Of he quartermasters de-
partment has returned to Washington from
Middletown. Pa, - where he has been
in charge aof s. work at Camp
Meade. He has made verbal re-
pert to Secretary Alger of the conditions
there. and what has been done for the
comfort of theaaronps. He says that the
camp is on one of the finest farms in Penn
syivania, on high rolling ground from 800
to 400 feet above the Susquehanna river
The water supply is abundant, and is OBJ
tanned from such as ssource that there can
be no possible danger OF pollution. Three
artesian wells furnish the supply. They
are from 271 to 3Sl feet deep, bored through
selid granite Tor some distance and through
nnarly $50 feet Of solid sandstone before
the water is reached. This water Is piped
about the camps and to tanks. where the
water carts are easily supplied Some regi-
nents are supplied by a hydrant In front
OF each company. others by water carts
Colonel Moore says that there is an abund-
ant supply of this water. which has been
analyzed and pronounced absolutely pure.
The sanitary conditions of the camp are
excellent. Precautions have been taken to
prevent any trouble arising from the sinks
and refuse matter. Colonel Moore also re-
ports that the food supply is abundant and
the troops apparently well satisfied. Presi-

What He Saw When He Visited Camp

CLEVELAND, Ohio. September 2.-Sen-
land after a months outing in the Yellow
stone Park and the northwest. In the
course OF an interview concerning the re-
ported sufferings in army camps, Mr.. Han
ma said:
Il do not care to place the blame for the
condition upon any one. 1 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 I visited Camp Alger and
looked carefully over the place. At the
and places where beer and pop and such
stuff were 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 2o,OOO men. 1 am acquainted personally
with the heads of the War Department and
am positive that they worked from six
teen to eighteen hodrs each day to equip
and arm this great army of between 90, 900
and 100000 men. The whole affair. seems
accomplished by any other nation in the
world The War Department had a most
stupendous task before it and 1t was equal
to the emergency.

There is said to be pressure upon Senator
Platt to win him back TO Gov. Black, and
meanwhile the Roosevelt boom does not
languish. Some of the most influential
members Of the state democracy believe
that Roosevelt will be nominated by the re-
publicans for governor. In the past day or
two they have heard reliable reports from
Kings, New York, Erie and other counties
in the state. and are satisfied that Platt
has easily got the upper nand, and they be-
lieve that Platt will eventually indorse
Roosevelt. They were somewhat surprised
at their Information from Kings county,
which is interpreted to mean that Brooklyn
cannot deliver anything like solid delega-
ton for Black and Woodruff. These demo-
Gratis go so far as to say that Black will
have the small end of the delegation. The
same reports come from New York and
Erie county and have convinced the party's
steering machinery that they must hunt for
a man who can successfully run against
Col Theodore Roosevelt.
And the democrats have poor guberna-
torial material this year. There are many
things that look favorable to Judge D.
Cady Herrick's nomination II Is said that
owing to the differences between Croker
anC Hill the nomination CT HerIick, who
was a strong Cleveland man. would give
more satisfaction than that of any man
who was known to De strongly affiliated
with either Tammany Hall or the Hill de-
niocracy. There Is a great deal of talk in
cidentally of Judge Herrlcz at the Hoffman
House headquarters. Members of all fac
lions seem to agree on the proposition that
lie would make strong candidate, and If
elected, would give administration that
has seldom been equaled In the states
history.

That the letter was written or inspired by

DIR. Ritchey said today he was afraid his
brother was dead. He thought his body
was possibly in the river and at his re-
quest the crew of the police boat made in

but, as they expected, nothing of value was
developed. DIR. Ritchey really does not
know what to think. His brother was not

Commercial Agent Wolff. at Noumea re-
ports to the State Department that he un-
derstands that the New Hebrides Islands
are about to become a French possession.
They were occupied by the French some
ten years ago, but never officially. The en-
tire trade Of this fruitful group Of islands
imports and exports, amounting to about
$1,0OO,0O0 per annum-has been hitherto in
the hands Of French and Australian syndi-
Gates. A small number of Americans reside
there. Mr.. Wolff says the commerce is
capable of considerable expansion and he
urges our people not to lose this opportun-
ity to open trading stations. The land is
adapted to the cultivation of coffee cacao,
vanilla, tobacco, sugar, rubber spices
every kind of tropical and semi-tropical
fruit. Land is given free to immigrants,
under certain conditions. The total area Of
the islands is 3625 .957 acres; the southern
most island Of the group is about 1,565
miles from Sydney. Australia. and some
230 miles from Noumea, New Caledonia.

LESS FRICTION WITH CUBANs.
Geu. Lawton Getting Along Well With
the Insurgents.

1t is stated at the War Department that
no orders have been issued to Gen. Lawton
regarding his treatment and management
of the Cubans at Santiago. and that every
thing he has done has been under the proc
lanlation of the President issued soon after
the fall of Santiago. There is considerable
qualification In the department over the re-
port that Gen. Lawton Is getting along so
we'll with the Cubans. 1t Is stated that
Gen. Lawton was selected by Gen. Niles
for his present command because his ad-
ministratiye ability fitted him to take
charge of the difficult problems confronting
the military governor of Santiago province.
Officials of the department who have had
some communication with the Cubans say
that the prospects now are that there will
be less friction with the Cubans than ap-
peared likely about the time hostilities
ceased.

Acting Secretary Alien today sent orders
to the Norfolk l,avy yard to have the dis
tilling ship Iris sent Immediately to Camp
Wikofr at Montauk Point This was done
after conversation between Secretary Al
ger and Acting Secretary Allen. The pur-
pose Is TO provide the soldiers at Camp
W1kon with an abundant supply OF abso-
lutely pure water for drinking and cooking
purposes. The Iris was fitted up by the
Navy Department with remarkable rapid
ity as distilling ship to supply the war
ships and auxiliary crafts and transports
In sub-tropical waters with pure fresh
water Most of the larger class of war
ships are equipped with distilling plants
sufficient fer their own supply But this is
not true of many Of the auxiliary vessels
and transports: hence the Iris was fitted
out. She Is able to turn out 60 900 gallons
of the purest distilled water every day
and this quantity will be ample for drink
ing purposes to supply three times the num-
Der of soldiers likely to be gathered at
Camp Wikoff at any one time.
To Prevent TyphoId's Spread.
Inasmuch typhoid fever, the most
dreaded of the camp diseases, according to
the best medical information. is transmit
ted altogether through fluids water and
milk. which reach the alimentary canal. so
long as the troops can be induced to drink
this distilled water alone. their milk being
daily inspected, it is believed that there will
be an end of the further spread of the
fever. As a measure of Drecaution it is
probable that the wells which have been
dug at Camp Wikoff viii be closed upon
the arrival of the Iris and the danger of
contracting disease from infected soil will
be reduced to minimum.
