At the same time they appreciate the danger that if by any lack of caution on thelr parta gave of cholera should be introduced hece dur- ing the encampment it might perhaps be widely distributed from this center to other parts of the United States, WHAT COMMIASIONER DOUGLAKS SAYS, ToaStan reporter Commissioner Douglass this afternoon eaid: “All our sanitary arrange ments are in good condition and improve — hourly. ‘The recent showers havo supplemented the sewer flushings of [assist hin in dinpensizg the ho«pi | his hos the past two weeks, and the result is n complete cleaning out of old deposits aud an ubsence of deleterious odors. ‘There is full consultation and perfect accord between the District and United States officials, not becanse we fear any appronch of the scourge, but be« we want to take all proper precautions. We shall tnke the best care of every man, woman and child in the District this week, next week or any other week. “Should a case of cholera appear we are pre- pared to isolate it at once, and none of us are nervou-, for we don't expect even one case. “No one need be disturbed as to the school hoyses and burracks which will be occupicd next week by the cld veterans. A num- ber @f barrels of disinfectants were purchased today | and have | been istributed where they will do the most good. Refuse matter from the barracks will ther be removed at once or buried six feet deep in qu.cklime.” HURRYING UP THE HOSPITAL. The Commissioners today ordered the in- spector of buildings to put all available men at work repairing the smalipox hospi This afternoon Dr. J. R. Nevitt, who bas been placed in charge of the hospital, had » long conference with HeAlth Officer Hammett. One of the wards of the hospital has been put in habitable condition and Dr. Nevitt says every- thing is ready for patients, There were veveral rumors flying about the ry today to the effect that twocases of cholera had been discovered in the city. At the health office Dr, Hammett said he had received no reports of such cases, and he burdly believed they were correct. Should a case occur his oftice would be at once notified. The Commisioners nave notified all the rail- rond companies to side track any ears contain- ing sick persons until they could be examined. WARNING THE SANITARY INSPECTORS. Health Officer Hammett has called the atten- tion of the temporary sanitary inspectors to the necessity of extra vigilance during the en- campment week. The inspectors will be called upon to make a daily report. Dereliction of duty, the health officer warns them, will be followed by a recommendation of dismissal. a A MEMORIAL ARCH ‘To Commemorate the Deeds of Those who Compose the Grand Army of the Republic. The proposition 1 being discussed among a few citizens and Grand Army men to agitate at the coming encampment the idea of the erec- tion in this city of a memorial arch to the Grand Army of the Republic. It is suggested that it is now a good time to dixcuss the question of providing a lasting tribute in stone and bronze to the achieve- ments of the men who compose the army and whose ranks are rapidly thinning. It is said that the idea often advanced here- tofore of erecting a memorial will eventually crystallize into result, and that this encamp- ment offers the most auspicious i the beginning of it. sae corey ar A SUITABLE Locatiox. The promoters of the plan maintain that Washington is beyond any question the proper location for a memorial, as the capital of the nation, toward whose preservation were di- rected’ the efforts of the mei who now com- Pose the Grand Army. It is suggested that a memorial arch could be erected on the brow of the hill at the head of 16th street, facing the Executive Mansion aud towering above the city. It is urged that this would be a commanding position, and one that would add to the effect of the arch iteelf. It ts probable that the suggestion may be brought ‘before the encampment in an oficial way during the session. ei STRENGTHENING THE TEAM.
