There are five thousand troops at Hunts
Vile, all volunteers. except the Fifth Cav
airy.
I'VE had 225O0 soldiers from Santiago at
Camp Wikoff and 1000 from Tampa and
other, places About 10000 of this, number
found their way into the hospital at one
time or another. The deaths UP to date are
263 OF the Santiago troops fully three
fourths were i'll when they reached Mon
tauk. About one hundred men reported
daily to the doctors, and about half this
number were considered sick enough to go
into the hospitals and were so ordered. Not
withstanding these facts l believe Montauk
Point an ideal camping place, and do not
think the government could have chosen
a better place. We would have
had as much illness and perhaps
more, with greater mortality, II 1t had not
been for the beautiful location of the camp.
When I was ordered there ] found few
changes to make the chief defect being a
lack of nurses. l soon remedied this
through the Kindness of the Red Cross So
ciety and kindred organizations. Whep
Camp Wikoff was most populous there We're
twenty-eight square miles of tents. All the
troops have been sent home except seven
regiments. Five have their orders to vari-
Gus places. and there remain without orders
only. the Seventh Infantry and the Second
Engineer Corps. Camp Wikoff Will soon
pass into history"

had quite a little difficulty with the wreck

sarily a gamble, he thought there was a
good chance that the Cristobal Colon could
also be raised if the government gives
Hobson permission to make the attempt.
HobSOn had earned right to this chance
by his success with the Teresa. The Chap
man Wrecking Company first reported that
saving these. ships was impossible, but
Lieutenant HobSon had a long talk with
the head OF the company, Captain Merritt,
and convinced him that the work could be
done, and it was understood that con-

bags and pontoons ready for the work. 1t
only remains for the government to decide
what amount of money can be risked in the
undertaking.

REMOVED AGAIN.
Concluded from FIRST PageD

possession of the ashes of Christopher
Columbus, the Spaniards asserting that the
ashes come under the classification of per
SOnal property" which, under the terms OF
the protocol, is exempt from seizure by the
United States. 1t is declared in certain
quarters that the United States is entitled
to possession of the discoveries remains and
that Spain cannot legally remove them from
Cuba, but must surrender them with other
property which belongs to this government
by right of conquest.
Mr. Coudert said: 1T is illogical to claim
that Spain has absolute power and control
over Cuba. To make such a claim as this
is to disregard or forget the fight at San
tiago, the destruction of SPANS fleet, the
surrender of General Toral and all those
events which accompany the surrender of
part of Cuba. Spain is bound to surrender
the other part of Cuba of which Havana
IS the citadel, at some time not yet fixed.
Her rights such as they are, depend on the
terms of the protocol and on reasonable
constructions to be placed under the rules
of international law upon her undertaking
to withdraw at a date still to be fixed.
Upon the construction of this protocol and
of these rules depend other questions. name
ly, the right to the remains of Christopher
Columbus
Il know of nothing which will prevent the
Spanish from exercising a pious duty to the
most illustriouS Spaniard Spain has ever
produced. There is not in legal contem-
platiOn. at least, any monetary value to be
attached to the greatly distinguished re-
mains. although as curiosities and relics
they would probably produce a high price
at auction, but even then. If the vague rules
of international law admitted as valid a
feature of the case that such valuation
could be placed on these relics. it could not
affect the claim of Spain for she might
then claim that the ashes of the distin-
guished discoverer were personal property
and that she had a right to remove them
to her soil. The desire of Spain to
keep these venerable bones within her own
control and to give them due reverence in
the future, in the past. is just and
natural. She is not bound to deliver them
over to the caprice of another nation which
might not treat them with all the reverence
which, in the eyes of Spain at least, they
deserve.
LAS to the possibility or probability that
Spain will endeavor to utilize her time-hon-
ored custom to procrastinate and put off
the time for evacuation. that is. OF course,
possible. a clash of opinion, too, might
then arise. which. if prolonged. might lead
to embarrassment and complications We
should then be driven to insist on Spain
departure from the island. If she refused
to comply with our reasonable demand then
the last resort of kings might nave to be
again resorted to-certainly very unfortu-
nate consummat ton.

VIEWS OF GENERAL NUNEz.
He Thinks the Destiny of Cuba is to
Become an American Republic.

Become an American Republic.
NEW YORK, Sept 26.-A dispatch to the
Press, from Washington, says: A state
ment was given out to-day by General
Nunez the Cuban commander refuting the
story that the Cubans were in league with
the Spaniards and against the Americans.
He says:
Il will be one of the first to pardon the
Spaniards for what they have done TO the
Cubans and to forgive them as men, but
would be the last to pardon or forgive the
atrocities of Weyler Nalmaseda and
others to the extent of ever again allowing
any of those partiSanS to have hand IN
the political affairs of Cuba. We are will
ing that they should assimilate with Gu
bans and, after receiving naturalization
papers, ally themselves with any of the po-
litical parties which may spring up in
Cuba, but we can never accept the Span
''To attempt to prohibit the American
people from exercising an influence in the
affairs of Cuba would be foolish and sui
cidal for Cubans. American influence, far
from being harmful, is exactly What is
wanted in Cuba. Cuba desires to become a
republic Why. then, should her citizens
not accept the advice and aid of repub-
lie in organizing and reconstructing her
government? We have been Spanish, DOM
mated by Spanish influence for four hun
dred years but now we want to be Ameri-
can in our ideas. customs and forms of gov
eminent. In addition to that theres capt.
tel in America. Spain has none and what
Cubans want at this time is capital TO de-
velOp our resources.
in my opinion the destiny of Cuba is
plainly outlined. and it would be foolish TO
attempt to separate us from America. The
Congress of the United States in just and
democratic spirit, is also granting us abb
sOlute liberty in the election Of our govern
ment Protected in the enjoyment of this
right it is our duty to go about our work
of organizing a government without loss
of time without quarreling and in the same
spirit and manner which has inspired us
always to fight for our independence"
