place visited was the Letter hospital.

EVACUATION OF CUBA.
At Present Rate Will Take Three Months IA
Deport ypaalsh Soldiers.

Wtts,iuHStOH, Sept. Z2.-OfnC1dI dis
patches from Havana received by one
of the embassies here confirm the re-
ports that the colonial government OF
the island is taking a hand in shaping
THE terms on which the evacuation
shall be executed. This creates a con-
dition In which the United States must
deal not only with Spain but also with
those who claim to represent the ss-
land Itself. free from Spanish control.
1t now seems clear that the official,
as well as the press reports from Ha-
vana and Madrid. that the Autonomlst
element is taking up the claim. first
advanced by Spain, that many inciden-
tai questions as to Cuba must he SET
tied before the evacuation begins. Blu,
the view among the government offic-
ials here is that Cuban Autonornists, As
wen as SpaniaTds have no questions
to advance or settle before evacuatiO
is determined upon.
The time and place OF evacuation Is
looked upon by the authorities here as
the only point involved and there Is
likely to be "a rude awakening IL the
pro-Spanish element, either as Autono-
mists or as native Spanialds, insist
upon bringing in the determination uf
the Cuban debt. future form of govern
ment. rates of tariff for Spain and
many other subjects as preliminary
to evacuation.
There are some 10000 Spanish troops
In the island. Allowing 1000 men on a
transport and a vessel leaving every
day it would take 100 days or over
three months for the evacuation. But
the vessels are not available for a trlp
every day for 100 consecutive days, SO
that the time for departure would
probably far exceed three months.

SECRETARY ALceR TALKS.
Blames Press ior Exaggerated Stories
Wants Truth to Be Known.

Chattanooga, Tenn, Sept. 22.-Secretary
Alger and party were entertained at a
linner, this evening. given by prominent
citizens of Chattanooga. Gen. Alger
stated tina. he was firmly convinced OF
the original healthfulness of Chicka-
manga Park. but that it has been rem
dered temporarily unhealthy by the long
occupation of the army. He intimatcd
that the soldiers now in camp in this
latitude will be moved further south on
the approach of colder weather. Col. Lee
replied to and denied the charges made
by Gems. Wiley and Sanger and Col.
Leonard and others against the quarter
masters department.
Surgeon General Sternberg declares
that naturally Chickamauga Park was
absolutely healthy and the water pure,
and that the sickness at Camp Thomas
was traceable directly to the failure OF
commanding and regimental officers to
observe the sanitary regulations issued
by the medical bureau.
The party left for Huntsville at 1890.
Before leaving Chattanooga, Secretary
Alger said:
''The press has been disposed to eXag-
gerate the condition of some of the
camps. and things have been charged
against the war department which were
untrue and unwarranted. 1 want all the
facts to come out.
''The great trouble has been that the
people have not appreciated the immense
problem of forming an army of 25O,0OO vol
unteers without notice and without the
necessary equipment.
There were thousand and one de-
tails to look after, and fairly disposed
public will understand the disadvantages
under which the war department worked
for many weeks. AS fast as possible
equipments and supplies were sent to the
several camps and If there has been lack
of medicines and necessaries of life. the
fault lies with the commanding officers
of the camps '- ~
''There may have been some incompe.
tent officers, generals and colonels In
charge of some of the camps. and if such
is found to be the case, they will be held
strictly to account for their misdeeds.
IF there are any commanding officers
who are now Incompetent or who fail tc
put their camps in first-class condition
and keep them that way. 1 propose tina,
they shall be replaced by men who are
competent and who will see that perfec,
sanitary conditions are established anG
maintained"
