My commission expires Jamuary 22, 1902 A SOLDIER'S TESTIMONY. Evidence is continually being made public that the reports of the condition of the military camps have been very much exaggerated. A returned soldier whose home is Louisville 1s authority for the state- ment that Camp Wikoff at Point Montauk is in fact a healthy place and that the camp there has been well managed. Joseph Barlow, formerly s deputy in the cireuit elerk’s office and well- known about town, is in the city on a 30-day furlough, haviag broken his arm while with his regiment at Mon- tauk Peint, L. I., says the Louis- ville Commercial. Barlow enlisted in this city on May 12, and together with several other Louisville boys, was assigned to the first cavalry, then encamped at Lake- land, Fla. From Florida the first was sent to Montauk Point, L. I. Barlew speaks in the bighest terms of the advant- ages of the site where the camp and hospital are located. ‘Montauk Point,’ said he, ‘is the finest place they could possibly get to mobilize troops in.”’ Tbe general hospital, where he was for a short time, he says is ar- ganged on the finest plan. Thereare more than 125 nurses, all wemen of culture and training, the most of them being from 35 to 50 years of age. All, be said, were anxious to de everything pessible for the com- fort of the patients under their care. ‘The inmates of the hospitals had the best of everything in the way of food and according to Barlow, were feasting on the fat of the Jand, where jthey were able to take food. All delicacies were furnished in abund- ance. A New York dairy furnished all the milk that could be used free of charge. ‘The equipments of the hospitals were also the very latest. For those patients who had fever and required cold baths, there were provided porcelain bathtubs, mounted on pneumatic-tired wheels so that they could be moved to the patient's bed- side. The other arrangements were similarly up-to-date, Barlow was asked why, if the hos- pitals aud camps were im such tine condition and so well arranged, there had been such » how! raised by yel- low journals and even by reputable democratic papers in regard to the condition of affairs at »Moatauk Point. The answer that the report. ere would come there and see emaci- ated individuals standing about, wen who were in such condition that they were almost unable to take any food at all, and then stories of starva~ tion, ete,, would follow the visit. |!
