Frankfort, Ky. Sept. 22.-Adju-
tant General p. p. Johnston, of Ken
lucky. has issued statement that.
in no uncertain terms, responds to
certain charges which have been
brought against those in command of
the Kentucky State Guard since the
brigade has been at the regular army
maneuvers at Fort Benjamin Harri-
son. Ind. and especially with refer
ence to the alleged lack of military
medical supplies accompanying the
First, or Louisville regiment, at the
time OF the train wreck. at Indianap-
oils. while that regiment was en-
route to the maneuvers last week.
Gen. Johnston goes into details to
show that nine chests of medical sup
plies were sent TO the Indiana camp,
and that the entire medical equip
ment allotted to Kentucky was. in
fact, on the train that was wrecked.
but very probably was contained in
one of the wrecked cars on the train.
As to the publication that the ad-
jutant general had refused to issue
mounts to the medical men of the
Kentucky brigade. Gen. Johnston
says the statement is "gartuitous and
utterly untrue" the publication that

mended not to pay the Kentucky
