War Investigating Commission Hears Tes-
tim"ny Regarding 1t.
HUNTSVILLE, Ala. Oct. 2s.-Durinp
the afternoon session of the wal investi-
eating commission a number of officers
who had served in the Santiago cam
paign were examined. General Carpen-
ter said the sick at Santiago had suffered
somewhat on account Of the deficiency
Of medicine and supplies. but this was
the only deprivation he spoke of. The
troops did not receive the entire ration
while in the field, but he was quite sure
that no man in the command had gone
hungry.
Captain Cartwright. who had been
aide to General Kent in the Santiago
campaign, said that doubtless some of
the men had been hungry al times, but
he thought the excitement Of battle had
sustained them. On the night of July |
he had half a hard tack for supper and
the remaining half the next morning.
He thought that under the circum-
stances the commissary department had
been quite efficient at Santiago.
