SANTIAGO HEROES.
They Testified Before War Investigators
Major Griffith Condemned
Red Tape.

CINCINNATI, Nov. 1.-The war inves-
tigation commission had among the
witnesses four officers of the Santiago
campaign, one OF them being General
III. G. Egbert, who, as lieutenant colo
mel of the Sixth infantry, was shot down
at San Juan hill by bullet piercing
his chest. The general appears entirely
recos cred Lieutenant Colonel Minor
now in command OF the Sixth infantry,
was another interesting witness. Per-
haps the most suggestive testimony was
that given by Major Griffith Of Kansas
City, who was III charge of the Third
division hospital of the First corps.
The com assion expects to complete
its work hss Q today and to resume 1T IN
Chicago Oh Monday morning.
Major Griffith testified regarding the
camp conditions at Chickamauga and
the hospitals He had difficulty in get
ting enough tents and when he secured
the proper number he found the last
ones OF poor quality. From private
and state sources the regiments were
supplied with hospital tents. AS IL rule,
the men detailed as nurses were unit.
Witness asked Dr. Hof for female
nurses. Iis relieved the situation.
The staff OF tho division hospital was
Inadequate when the sickness occurred.
Sickness among the surgeons reduced
the working force. He said there would
have be. u no difficulty in getting hun
areds OF competent surgeons at Chick
nmauga within a week. He said he
knew many applications were refused.
He attributed the failure at the Camp
Thomas hospitals to ''red tape, and
''peace for 80 years, which incapaci-
tated the department. for expansion for
emergency. If congress had established
a hospital corps the trouble might have
been avoided. One great difficulty in
getting supplies of drugs arose from
passing requisitions from the division
surgeon to the corps surgeon and the
surgeon il. chief. This required a week.
He asked the corps commander on
june 30 to have the typhoid patients
isolated. The epidemic could have
thus been avoided, but no attention was
given to the request. He regarded flies
and water IS causes of the infection.
The beer drinking and the unwhole-
some food assisted in developing
typhoid germs The mortality from
typhoid fever in this hospital was 66
out of 1857 cases.
Father Vatman, post chaplain, was
another witness examined. He served
at Tampa, Camp Thomas, Fort Sheri-
dan and Fort Thomas The witness
had no complaint at Fort Thomas from
either friends or patients.
Being asked what complaints, if any,
he had heard from patients about their
treatment at other places. he said that
he had heard none whatever from sol
diers Of the regular army, but that a
number Of the volunteer soldiers had
told him Of disagreeahle experiences
which were often answered by a soldier
on the next cot by the question: did
you think ycl were going to picnic!o
