GRAVES OF CoNFEDERATEs.
Gen. Oates Tells the President About
the Work of Preservation.

Gen. w. c. Oates of Alabama was one
Of the interesting callers On President
Roosevelt today. Gen. Oates, FORMER
member of the House from Alabama. Is
superintendent of the marking Of graves
of Confederate soldiers who died in fed
eral prisons. He wanted to tell the Pres
ident of the progress of the work upon
which he is engaged. Congress appro-
priated 100000 for making the graves OF
Confederates who died in northern pris-
ons. the law intending that they should
be given the same attention as the graves
of federal soldiers who died In southern
prisons. The law provides that simple head
stones like those in Arlington and else
where shall be erected. and Gen. Oates
has placed before the War Department
an instance where it is impossible to fol-
low the law and he says there are many
other instances. In the federal prison al
Camp Morton, near indianapolis, l,6.O
Confederate soldiers Gled and were buried
near the prison.
Careful records were kept of the names
and regiments CT the soldiers. although
the individual graves were somewhat
carelessly marked. Some years ago
railroad desired to run Its tracks through
the cemetery and was given permission to
do so provided it would renter the bodies
in the western part of Green Lawn GENE
terry at Indianapolis In making the re-
interment no records were kept and the
single opening Not even the names of
the bodies were preserved. AS result
there can be no individual marking. Gen.
Oates wants authority to erect a simple
marble shaft upon which shall be in
scribed the names and commands of all
the soldiers buried in the spot.
There are a number of other in
stances like this throughout the country"
said Gen. Oates, but we have been able
to do much work. AT Camp Chase. near
Columbus Ohio, are the graves of $3.50
Confederates and these have been care
fully marked. Senator Foraker. who in
troduced the bill providing for the mark
ing of these graves. was painstaking in
the matter when he was governor of that
state 1t was by his order that the
cemetery where the Confederates were
buried was cleaned of unsightly weeds
and brush.
Gen. Oates said that 25.OO0 Confederate
soldiers died in Federal prisons and that
they were buried from Boston to Santa
Fe N. NJ. OF the sum appropriated about
S17 600 has been expended.
