Turner's argument Mr. Foraker took
some sharp exceptions to statements

ments declaring among other things
that he had spoken only for himself

To Pay Expenses OF sick Soldiers
While on Furlough.
Washington, Jan. Representa-
tive McCleary, Of Minnesota, yesterday
introduced a bill authorizing the secre-
tary Of the treasury to reimburse Of
fiCers and n-en of the army and navy
who served in the war between the
United States and Spain for necessary
and reasonable expenses incurred while
on leave or furlough for medical at
tendance, nursing and medical supplies
necessitated by disabilities incurred
throneh military or naval services in
said war. When seen last night Mr..
McCleary said:
L was prompted to introduce this
bill by a feeling that equity demanded
it. Numerous Instances have come to
my attention where men We're sent
home because sick and incapacitated for
duty The folks at home nLrsed them
back to life and rejoiced in the oppor-
tunity Of caring for their loved ones.
Bat in many instances the expenses
for medical attendance and supplies
have been a charge that the family
could i'll afford. 1t seems only just and
right that those expenses should be re-
imbursed by the government in whose
service the disabilities were incurred.
If the soldier had gone to a military
hospital the charges would have been
paid by the government under existing
law. But there is no law authorizing
the payment of such expenses for SOL
diers absent from their commands on
sick leave or furlough. TO grant this
authorization IS the purpose Of the
bill"

you have a bilious look if your stomach be

cations announcing assaults and acts

rilla and irregular forces. 1t is reported
likewise that during the past week
eight such individuals have been as
sassinated in the municipal districts

committed at Yaguajay. Knowing
your just and noble intentions, l have
the honor to call your attention to the
above, and to beg that you will take
suitable measures to punish the guilty
and to prevent the recurrence of similar
acts in the future"
