mand That He Be Court Mar
tialed for Causing the Death of
an Injured Sergeant.

CHICKAMAUGA, Sept. 2.--General
Frank, commander of the Third army
corps, accompanied by his staff, left this
morning for Admission. Ala. Tomorrow
the headquarters of the Third and
Second brigades and Fourteenth New
York will go.
Six prominent Chattanoogans, four of
them leading physicians, have pre-
ferred charges against Major Hubbard,
surgeon-general of the Ninth New York.
They charge him with being responsible
for the death of Sergeant Frank, who
was struck by train a few days ago,
and with conduct unbecoming an officer
and gentleman. 1t is claimed Hubbard
caused the removal of Frank when his
life might have been saved by keeping
him quiet, and say that when the other
physicians expostulated with him he
used language unbecoming gentleman
and an officer. A court-martial is de-
manded.

Appalling Showing Made By Partial
Record of Deaths in the Various
Camps in the Country.

CHICAGO, Sept. 2.-The Tribune this
morning prints statistics showing the
number of soldiers who have been killed
in battle and have died OF disease dur
ing the war with Spain.
While $50 officers and men have been
killed in battle or died OF wounds re-
ceived, there have died of disease in
camp between 1900 and 2OOO volunteers
and regulars.
The Tribune has secured the names OF
1884 who died in camp or on transports,
or at home after contracting malarial fe-
yer at one of the camps. There is no
doubt about the 1884 men whose names
have been secured. Neither is there
much doubt that there are hundreds of
dead whose names could not be secured
on account of the lack of records and the
inability or the unwillingness of any Of
ficer to furnish lists of the dead.
The Tribune gives statistics of the
dead in each camp, giving in every in
stance full list of names and the ma
ture of the disease.
The record by camps is as follows:

To the Reform School.

Thursday several neighbours OF
Mrs. Frank Blazer entered complaint
before Justice Sheldon against her
four young SONS, who, according to
their testimony, are incOrriglble.
Mrs. Blazer admitted that she could
not control them, as she had to leave
them at home alone while she went
out to work.
The lads range from G to ~ years
age. and Justice Sheldon thought
that it would be best to send them
to the state training school, and
committed them to that institution.
The commitment and testimony In
the case will Le submitted to Judge
Searle. and II approved by him: as
Ia very probable, the boys will be
taken there ut once.
Mrs. Blazer is In very unfortunate
circumstances. Her husband left
here several months ago, and from
the fact that he has not written to
her or sent her any money 1t Ia be-
lieved that he has deserted her.
Mrs. Blazer has done the hest she
could to support herself and children
by sewing. but has found It difficult
to do, and her troubles were iD-
creased by the fact that no one cared
to rent her 4 house. as her children
were SO troublesome.
