Refugees are not being given trans

fields, nor are those going there being
provided with free tents and blankets
The baron stated originally that 1900
would find employment there and that
transportation, tents and blankets
would be provided them. On Tuesday
about $50 were sent to the fields. but
only 140 were furnished free transpor-
tation, and only $50 with blankets
When 100 others applied to be sent TO
the fields they were sent by Miss Hess
who had charge Of the hop department
of the Associated Charities, to Won
Horsts Office on Fillmore street, where
a clerk told them they would have to
pay their fare to Hopland, pay rental
for tents while there, furnish their own
blankets and buy meals at 90 cents
each.
AS the green hands could not see how
they were to make more than 81 a day,
the offer was not accepted.

There is no post in this country Of
such vast extent. General MaeAr-

half ago he was offered the com
mand of the Atlantic Division, with

This he declined for the reason that he
preferred to remain here. He says
that so long as he is in command of
this division he will use every endea-

to people who become intoxicated But

was that there are people out there

fair to say that 100 gain their living

MAJOR GAsTON EXPLAINS.
Major Castor last night sent the fol-
lowing statement 20 the press:
Il am informed by certain reporters
that considerable excitement exists at
the speedway owing to q letter sent by
me to Chief of Police Dinan. In re-
gard to this I wish to state that can
vass made shows only small number
of unworthy persons. By the words
obtain their support in a questionable
manner was meant that men living in
refugee camps who do not work and
yet are able to support themselves and
have money besides lay themselves
open to suspicion unless their resources
are known. No reflection was intend
ed against any lady in that camp.
