Everything Teasonable ter From the Middle of April to August 22 They Kpmbered 198. General H. V.

The record of burials in the national cemetery at Chattanooga shows a total of 120 volunteers and two soldiers. Of the latter, one of these was killed by falling from a railway train.” In closing his report General Boynton i ss “I beg leave to ‘opinion that most of the interviews with regi- mental surgeons -and others, both officers and men, now appearing at the north in many of the newspapers in regam to this bey are reckless and false except-as to the filthy conditions, which their own crim- inal neglect has caused.

ON THE LINES IN FRONT OF SANTIAGO Report of Lieut. Godfrey, Assistant Surgeon. SERVICES OF HOSPIFAL CORPS Surgeon General Sternberg has received @ report from First Lieutenant G. 0. M. Gcdfrey, assistant surgeon, who had com- mand of the hospital corps company of the 1st Division, 5th Army Corps, dated San- tlago de Cuba, July 28, from which the following extracts sre taken: “The hospital company was organized at Tampa, Fla., on June 5, 1898, just two diys previous to the departure of the treops cf the Ist Division for the trans- Ports at Port Tampa, Fla. On the day of organization the strength of the company was eighteen privates. No non-commis- sicned officer was assigned to it until June 7, 1898, when Acting Hospital Steward Mc- Guire reported for duty. He was at once ‘etailed as first sergeant of the company, which place he has held up to the present date. A cook and an assistant cook, order- lies for the medical officers and a clerk were at once detailed. . . . . . . . . “When the order came to move, the men of the company performed the work neces- sary thereto, and the enthusiasm and es- prit de corps with which they labored added greatly to the celerity and facility with which the task was accomplished. The personnel and supplies of the division hcspital, as well as the hospital company was placed on board the transport San- tiago, and arrived off the coast of Cuba, near Santiago, on June 20, 1898. The day before landing all of the material was brought up from the hold by the men of the company, and stored on the main dec’ of the ship near the forward starboard port. This was done by direction of Major M_ W. Wood, chief surgeon of this division, and proved a wise and efficient measure. “We landed on June 25 at Siboney, Cuba, and pitched camp on the beach. On this day thirteen of the privates of the hospital corps of the Tlst New York Volunteers jeined the company. During the night of June 25, Acting Hospital Steward McGuire and five of the men worked all night un- lcading the material for the hospital and storing it upon the beach under canvas. This was done by using small boats drawn by steam launches, and, owing to the high swell, it was at times quite dangerous. I remember several occasions where the men narrowly missed injury from falling boxes. Taking the Supplies to the Front. “On June 26 the men were given a short drill to perfect organizaticn. Hurried prep- arations were made for a forward move- ment, and as absolutely no transportation could be obtained from the quartermaster’s department, these reparations consisted principally in selecting such necessary dressings and drugs as the men could carry on their backs and litters. On June £7 the 1:t Division moved forward, and the Hospital Company followed in rear of the 3a Brigade, taking the ridge rcad toward Saville. Owing to the possibility of an im- mediate skirmish or battle, none of the medical officers rode their horses, but made pack mules of them, and carried as large a number of dressings, etc., as they could. The division camped in column. brigades, and the Hospital Company and Division Hcspital pitched camp near the headquar- ters of the division commander. | On the following morning twenty men ‘and the stevard and two medical officers returned to Siboney, and brought up four litters, and as many medical supplies as possible. ri turning about 2 o'clock p.m.; after a soak- ing rain the company broke camp, and was ordered to move forward two miles. This they did marching over a rocky yet muddy road, carrying the hospftal supplies with them. They pitched their shelter tents on the soaking ground, while the officers, who had no shelter, slept in the open air ex- posed to dampness and poisoning. On June 29 the company moved forward a quarter of a mile further to a beautiful spot wita the Aquadores river on one side, and the Siboney road on the other. Here on the 2th the Division Hospital was establisaed, and here it remained all through the ter- rible carnage that followed. On this day six wagon loads of our supplies were brought up from the beach at Siboney, and tent flies were pitched and everything ar- ranged for the coming battle. On the J0th of June the work of establishing the Di- vision Hospital continued and more of our supplies were brought from Siboney, ° ° : * : . On the Firing Line. “On the morning of July 1 the writer rede in the direction of the firing toward El Caney, and while searching for an am- bularce rode to the extreme right and visited the firing iine of the 18th Infantry. He th2n returned and reported to Maj. Wood, who directed an ambulance to be at once sent in that direction. Owing to the very small number of Hospital Corps men present with the division, and as the number of ambulances for the entir> army was limited to three, it was impossible to expect them to convey the total number of wounded from the coilecting stations to the 1st Division hospital. It was soon appar- ent that the entire force of the Hospital Corps would have to be used to man the hospital, but about noon Acting Hospital Steward McGuire, two litter squads and an ambulance went forward up the San Juan read. As the Spanish shrapnel were bursting around the battery on El Paso Hill, near the road, it was not d2emed prudent to take the ambulance beyond that point. Therefore it remained, while the two litter squads pushed forward up the San Juen road. One wounded man was found who was not able to walk about 400 yards before reaching the furthest crossing of the Aquadores river, He was at once dressed and conveyed to the rear by a lit- ter squad. The other litter and the stew- ard advanced about 40) yards further to the 2ast bank of the Aquadores, and there found a wounded man who could not walk? At this time the 6th and the 16th Infantry were immediately in front, and were mak- ing their advance toward San Juan Hill. It can, therefore, be seen that the hospital littar squad in rear was under the hottest kind of fire, and the bullets were cutting the leaves all around, but not one of these men faltered, or showed the least sign of fear. a * . . . . . Wounded Coming Back in a Stream. “At this time the wounded were coming back in a constant stream, and such as needed stimulation or dressing were at once attended to by the roadside. Many of them returned alone, others walked supported by the arm of some comrade, while the most seriously wounded were borne upon litters of various kinds. A taw of those who return- ed had not received medical attention, but the majority of them were dressed with first-aid packages by the regimental sur- geons and their hospital corps men. “At about 1 p.m. Maj. Valery Havard, chief surgeon of the cavalry division, es- tablished an ambulance station on the east bank of the Aquadores, near El Paso. At this station many dressings were readjust- ed, and a few patients were dressed for the first time. Stimulants, medicines and dressings constituted the stock at this sta- tion, which was about a mile in advance of the Ist Division hospital. No point fur- ther to the front was safe from the en- emy's fire. The ambulances were worked constantly, and, considering their number, did remarkably weil. Late in the ‘after- noon ambulances were taken forward to near the farthest crossing of the Aqua- dores, but it was rather dangerous at all times, as. the enemy kept the San Juan road enfiladed all day long. It was also very dangerous on account of Spanish guer- rillas, who were located in trees overlook- ing the road. Several men carrying wound- ed were shot, and, indeed, in a few cases the patients themselves were hit. 5 ed up the water in the creek. At one time it was enfiladed by Spanish sharpshooters in trees up the creek. Several horses were killed here, but no patients, surgeons or attendants were injured that afternoon. It was at this place on the following morn- ing that Dr. Danforth was killed. Obtained Army Wagons. “Late in the afternoon several escort Wagons, having carried ammunition to the front, were turned over to the writer Ly Lieut. J. D. Miley, Gen. Shafter’s aid-de- camp. These were taken to this station and filled with the wounded, who were transported to the Ist Division hospital. Empty army wagcns that could be found Were used for this purpose, and the wound- ed kept coming into the hospital all night. On the following morning an ambulance ond two wagons were taken to the dress- ing station just described, and the wounded brought in, amorg them being Acting As- sistant Surgeon Danforth, who was shot through the head. Maj. 8. Q. Robinson had assumed command of this station on the previous afternoon, but at this time he, with Capt. W. D. McCaw, rejoined their regiments and teft the station in charge of Capt. Paul Newgarden. Maj. V. Havard arrived later, and established an ambu- lance station.at this point, which was then comparatively safe. It was customary dur- ing the battle for the writer to send ltters and dressings to the front in the empty ambulances. During and after the battle the men of the hespital corps company did much of the work in the Ist Division hos- pital. They assisted in operations, helped in applying dressings, made soup and cof- fee, carried patients to and from the op- erating tables and acted as nurses to the wounded. With but few exceptions, they worked ail day, all night, all the following day and most of the next night. They were assisied by members of the bands of the regiments, and by some of the hospital corps men of the regiments. “During the battle the first aid work was very effective, and was done mostly by regimental surgeons and their hospital squads. Many dressinzs were applied by the line officers and soldicrs on the firing line, and in some instances by the wounded men themselves. Maj. S. Q. Robinson, who commanded the Aquadores éressing station on July 1, says that only about ten patients came there who had not been dressed by first aid packets. Worls can bardly express the appreciation which the officers and men of the line have for the first aid packets. They realize now, never before, the value and importance struction in first aid work. very mall number of suppurating wounds can readily be accounted for by the prompt ap- plications of these dre NOMINEES OF CONVENTIONS. Tickets and Platforms of Wisconsin and New Hampshire Democrat: At the Wisconsin democratic state con- vention yestercay Hiram A. Sawyer of Hartford was nominated for governor on the first ballot. The other candidates were T. E. Ryan and W. H. Rogers. The ballot resulted: Sawyer, 368; Ryan, 256; Rogers, 31. Ex-Governcr Peck congratulated the democracy and people of Wisconsin on the interest taken in public affairs, and pre- dicted that the ticket to be nominated on this occasion would carry the state by a large majority. The resolutions committee's report was read and adopted unanimously. In it no reference to the annexation question is mede. Allegiance to democratic principles as set forth in the Chicago platform is re- affirmed. The resolutions continue: “We congratulate the citizens of the na- tion on their loyalty and ardent patriotism displayed in the Vigorous prosecution of the late war, and we especially honor the American army and navy for their valor and intrepid bravery on land and sea, and € condemn in unstinted measures the War Department for the blunders and crimes committed against the brave boys in blue in camp and on foreign battle fields by selfish contractors, incompetent sur- gecns and vain, heartless army officers, ap- pointed for political purpcses, and we hereby pledge to our brave sailors and soldiers who survive this war our earnest and loyal support to secure the punish- ment of the guilty parties.” Nine planks are then devoted to the ar- raignment of the republican state adminis- tration. Further declarations favor a new primary law, to the end that all nominations shail be made by a direct vote of the people. The platform concluded: “We believe in the referendum, the submission of all laws to the vote of the people and favor anti- pass legislation and good roads.” After a warm debate a motion was passed to appoint a committee for the purpose of conferring with the populists on the maz- tes of fusion on the state ticket. Democrats in New Hampshire. The democratic New Hampshire state cepventién was held yesterday, and Chas. F. Stone cf Laconia was nominated for governor. The platform reaffirms the “principles of the democratic party es enunciated in national conventions since the fcundation of the party,” and expresses ad- miration for the confidence in William J. Bryan. The “war planks” of the platform follow: “We renew our adherence to the Mon- roe doctrine asserting that cur national ‘sphere of influence’ comprehends and em- braces the entire western hemisphere; and that beyond securing requisite coaling and naval stations in other parts of the world, for the convenience and protection of our commerce, we should seek to acquire no territory. “We commend to the generosity of a grateful public the soldiers of the late war with Spain, sympathize and commiserate with all such as are now sufferiug untold agonies, the direct result of glaring in- competency and brutal neglect upon the part of the War Department of the gen- eral government ,and demand a thorough, impartial investigation of that department by a democratic Congress, and the sum- mary punishment of the men who have prostituted patriotism to partisanship and greed. “We oppose the maintenarce of a large standing army in time of peace. We favor a navy equal to that of any other nation, and the construction and maintenance by the United States of an Isthmian canal, free from control of all private individuals, corporations, syndicates, or foreign gov- ernments, as 2 preventive of war.” New Jersey Convention.

GOSSIP FROM GOTHAM The Theatrical Season Beginning Earliea Than Usual This Year. magers Look for Good Business< Some Attractions That Wash- From a Staff Correspondent. NEW YORK, August 30, 1898. The theatrical season is beginning early here this year. The Casino has, of course, been doing “Yankee Doodle Dandy” fora month to the biggest kind of business, and Denman Thompson has been repeating his former remarkable success in “The O14 Homestead” at the Academy of Music. Daly has opened his theater in a musical- dancing melange called the “Runaway Girl,” which seems to belong to some other house than his. It’s on-the same plane as the Casino productions without any of the desh and vim that characterize the work of Mr. Lederer's forces. Stuart Robson is rehearsing his new play, “The Meddler,” at Wallack’ Al. Canby is rehearsing ‘Little Miss jobody”’ at the Garden Thea- ter, while at the Knickerbocker John Sousa's latest opera, “The Charlatan,” {3 being put into shape by the De Wolf Hop- per Opera Company. Among other com- panies now rehearsing is the Alice Neilsen Opera Company, the members of which are learning “The Fortune Teller,” written especially for Miss Neilsen by Vic- tor Herbert and Harry Smith. Frank Per- ley, who will manage Miss Neilsen, as well as “The Bostonians,” expects great things from his star, but some of the experienced. people whom I have talked with are not so Sanguine. They admit her beauty and piquanc: but say that her voice is light and thin, and that while she showed to good advantage in the company of such singers as compose the Principals of the Bostonians, she is hardly strong enough to shine in the stellar firmament. Bright Music in “The Chariata: I heard a portion of a rehearsal of “The Charlatan” the other day, and if all the music is as bright and catchy as that which I heard this opera will exceed thi pepularity of “The Bride Elect” or “EL Capitan.” Alice Judson, a Washington girl, is in the cast. She has a soubrette part. and I think sh> has now struck her legiti- mate gait and will make a hit. All the managers predict an unusually successful season. They say that now that the war is over people will have time to go to the theater, and that they will fe:] the need of amusement. ‘They say that the close of the war is one reason why the sea- son is beginning so early, and they believe that more money will be made by good at- treciions than for many years past. They think that the season in Washington will be unusually prosperous, for it is expected that the acquisition of ‘new territory end the arrangement for its government will make necessary a large number of new offices, and that those who wun? to fill those offices will visit the capital city dur- ing the coming congressional season. Klaw & Erlanger, Alf Hayman, Julius Cahn, A. M. Palmer, Charles Frohman, Andrew McCorm‘ck, H. S. Taylo> and Geo. Tyler all express views similar to those given above. I met Charlie Hanford on Broadway, and he was busy looking after the Shakespear- ean revival that he is to give with Jos. Haworth in Philadelphia next month. He hopes to continue the company during the entire season. Theodore Hamilton, who will be remembered as one of the most capable of the old-time actors, goes with Stiart Robson this season. He has taken on more flesh than he had when years ago he was the handsome leading man of the National Theater Stock Company, but he is hearty and vigorous, and no one would dream that he was now up in the sixties. Sousa and His Band. John Philip Sousa iz planning a long tour for his band. He will not go to Europe until 1900, and then he intends making quite a stay in Paris during the exposition. I had quite a talk with George Hinton, and he showed me the list of the cities and towns the band was to visit. There were places that I had never heard of before, and yet it 1s sald the inhabitants thereof worship Sousa and his band. Mr. Sousa and his band will visit Washington three times during the season. Dan Godfrey, the celebrated English bandmaster, and his band will also visit Washington, probably the latter part of November. Among other musical attrac- tions that will go to the capital city are the Royal Italian Opera Company, that made such an impression at Wallack’s last spring: the International Op>ra Company, headed by Clementine De Vere and Mme. Kronoid, and probably Nikisch and his Berlin Or- chestra. It is not definitely decided about the last named organization, but Henry Wolfsohn said that they would probably come. Mr. Wolfsohn said that when Henri Marteau, the Frencn violinist, comes to this country he will play two ‘concerts in this city with Miss Lotta Mills of Wash- ingten. Matters Musical. Not only do the thestrical managers pre- dict a good season, but those interested in musical ventures are sanguine of good business. Rosenthal and Sauer will be the chief attrections as pianists, and it is ex- pected that both will draw enormousiy. The former is well known in this country, and the closing of his tour last season on account of his illness was a sad disappoint- ment to those who had hoped to hear him now, in the maturity of his powers. Sauer, the new Frenca piants:, is sald to Possess as distinctive a personality as Pad- erewski, and those who have heard him abroad look for a perfect craze over him on the part of the women. Emil Paur, former leader of the Boston Symphony Orchestra, is now a New Yorker and is looking after the interests of the permanent orchestra. He hopes to secure for it the piace in the Metropolitan Opera House during the opera season, that will keep his force together and won't interfere with the concerts at the Waldorf-Astoria, which are really the only business for the orchestra now in sight. Anita Cluss, a Washington girl, has made a great reputa- tion for herself here as harpist and has been financially successful. This summer she has been playing in Saratoga. Mr. Joseph Luckett, the manager of the Columbia Theater in Washington, spent two days here recently looking after the bcokings for his theater. Among the profes- sicrals well known in Washington whom I have met are Geoffrey Stein, Jas. Mahoney, ‘Thad Shine, Louis Harrison, Clarence Han- dysides, Jack Hirsch, Jeff Lierburger, Henry and James Peakes, John Rogers, Ed- die Dunn, Aubry Boucicault, Forrest Carr and Wm. Guttison. The last two are both members of the International Opera @om- pany and are both Washington boys. FT. MAINE HERO MARRIED. Ensign Powelson’s Sweetheart Nurse Becomes His Bride in the Hoxpital. Ensign William Van Nest Powelson, one of the survivors of the battle ship Maine, and a hero of the war with Spain, was married in his room in the Episcopal Hos- pital, Philadelphia, yesterday afternoon, to Miss Margaret Olivia Millar of Wyoming, Ohio, daughter of Col. Millar, United States army. Only a small bridal party was pres- ent, including Mr. and Mrs. A. V. N. Pow- elson of Middletown, N. Y., the father and mother of the groom; Capt. Sigsbee, who has taken a great interest in the young en- sign, and several of the latter's naval asso- clates. Miss Clark, a friend of the bride, was also present. The father of Miss Millar, who is stationed at Moniauk Point with his com-
