NEW YORK. Aug. 23.-There are now in
the hospitals at Montauk point more than
LOO men. OF these about 300 are in the
general hospital and annex, and 800 are in
the hospital of detention. Many In That
hospital are improving and some are now
being discharged every day, The situation
in the hospital is excellent.
The total number II typhoid cases Ia set
at 2@25. Some OF the typhoid patients are
being removed to New Haven. In a day
or so the remaining typhoid patients will
be taken TO New York or Boston. The idea
is to send them to the nearest hospitals
until they can hold no more. and thus
make the journey as short as possible.
The Rio Grande will be converted into q
hospital ship for use at Montauk point and
the harbors about New York for an in
definite period. 1t Is evident that until
some hospital accommodations are pro-
vided on shore some OF the sick and
wounded soldiers win have to be kept on
board the hospital ships In Fort Pond hay.
