Show the Veterans Opinion of Evans.
The following resolution was passed
unanimously at a meeting Of w, W. Hayt
Post. 276, Corning. n. Y. on June Is:
Whereas. it is made apparent to the
Grand Army of the Republic that the laws
of the United States granting pensions 10
disabled Union soldiers and sailors and
their widows and minor children have
been and are being nullihed by the Office
of the Government charged with their nd
ministration instead OF being literally and
justly administered and,
Whereas. the Grand Army OF the Re
public has repeatedly asked that such
rules and orders be literally construed, ac-
cording to their manifest purpose, and be
put in force by our comrades in office Law
ing authority to administer the penNi0n
law. of which request no notice has been
taken;
Therefore be Ii resolved by VIM. W.
Hayt Post No. 2I6, g. A r.. of Corning,
SteGben County, n. Y. That the Pension
Bureau, having failed TO meet the just
and reasonable expectations OF the vefei-
ans and dependent ones in the proper con
struction of the laws passed for their ban
eft, and having refused to comply with
former requests of the Grand Army Of the
Republic for the needed reform. that the
President of the United States be most
earnestly but respectfully requested to re-
move from office the present Comlnissioner

advanced position TO a proper prolongatlon
of the main Union line, which Longstreet
did not deem it prudent to attack even when
TINS thrown into disorder. AT the place
where Geary halted and awaited orders |
well remember hearing staff officer when
lie had ridden up 10 him say that the enemy
were in possession of the works he had
left at Culps Hill, and that the orders were
that the Union line at that point, at all
odds and costs, must be made intact before
daylight. Ewell was resting and waiting
for daylight, but the Union Generals moved
and worked to decide the fight before day
light.
Il leave to others to give an account of the
plans and preparations made by Sloeum,
Williams and Geary to carry out their
orders; suffice it to say that when the
storm of battle burst upon Ewell it was
SO terrific that it aroused the Army of the
Potomac as well as Lees army from this
sIumber, wondering what had come and
what that fight upon the Union right
meant.
On the return of Geary's columns to the
front Of Ewell, then in our works, he placed

Movaments in south Africa.

Active Boer guerrilla operations are re-
ported from half dozen points IN Orange
River Colony. The renewed Boer activity
increases in proportion with Lord Rob
ertss quiescence, so that the complexion
of the Commander-in-C Chiefs enyeloping
movement, supposed to be in progress, is
anxiously awaited. Various minor con
ilicts, with unimportant results, are told
of in the dispatches. The Boer conf
mandoes in the eastern part of the Grange
River Colony appear to have been broken
up by their leaders for the time into small
parties that hafass large columns of the
British, necessarily cutting off scouts,
sniping pickets, making a show of force
here and there and bewildering the slow
moving bodies. Commandant Christian
De Wet, Gen. Steyns principal command
er, is the genius of these guerrilla opera
tions. He is the hero on the Boer side
in these last days of hostilities. Lord
Robertss columns are steadily contracting
the circle of their advance.
The main topic of conversation in Lon
don is the disclosures affecting the Brit
ish hospital service. w. a. J.. Burdett-
Coutts, Conservative member of Parlia-
ment for Westminster, who is now in Cape
Town, charges the Government with in
adequate provision for the sick and wound
ed. The writer paints painful picture,
telling of 800 patients who lay in field
hospitals for seven weeks without beds.
He says that typhoid victims were
stretched upon the ground in the rain,
when the mud was three inches deep, and
that the poor wretches had practically no
nursing Lord Roberts in correspondence
on this matter says the soldiers are an
easy prey to enteric diseases, and the
prevalence of sickness is due to the hard
campaigning. and has been too much for
the hospital system to combat. If the
rate of sick cases and death were abnor-
NAL, it was due to the exhausted state
of the men and not to the neglect of the
Medical Corps.
