A Chinese baby show was one of the attractions at the mining fair at San Francisco. Two hundred babies of Oriental parentage were displayed, and the sight was unique on this occasion. The little boys had their heads shaver, and the girls had their hair stiffened and decked with fringes of beads and paper flowers. The complete gravity and silence of this array of Celestial infants added to the queerness of the show. To Frost Currants.

Prompt Evacuation Expected by the Commissioners. Camp Sites Will Be Chosen. The Shipment. of Stores Has Already Begun. Washington, Oct. 7.—-—It has been de- cided to have a general movement of the army about October 27. All the camps in the United States will mean— while have been selected, and troops will occupy them for the Winter, ex— cept in cases where orders have been issued for service in Cuba. General Lee, who is here, will have command of the force in Havana. and the war partment is advised that this m e- ment may take place within two weeks. General Wade has informed the secre— tory of war of the progress of the work of the Havana commission, and reports that indications point to a prompt evacuation Of Western Cuba by the Spanish forces. The board, of which Colonel Becker and Colonel Waring ale members, will proceedto Havana. at once and select sites for camps. .. By the time General Lee’s command is landed everything will be in readi- ness to receive the troops, who will be quartered comfortably at places cho- sen with a_view to the sanitary and climatic conditions. The supply departments are already engaged in the shipment of stores and a. system of distribution has been in- augurated calculated to assure the sol- diers of full rations at all times. The order to belss ued tO-day in re- gard to the reorganized military force contemplates dividing the army into four corps, one of which will be Gen- eral Lee’s, and will be sent, 3‘ already stated, to Cuba at once. Colonel Valery Harvard, chief sur- geon under Shaffer, and later under Lawton at Santiago, has been sum- moned to Washington. His testimony is desired by the surgeon general before the war inquiry commission. , Dr. Harvard is one of the best known of army surgeons. At Santiago he suc- ceeded Surgeon John Pope, who was relieved on account of illness, and is in a position to furnish data in defence of Surgeon General Sternberg. Discharging of Volunte ers. Washington, Oct. 7.——-The war depart- ment has found it necessary to make the orders more emphatic in regard to the method to be used by volunteer soldiers in applying for discharge from the service. The following order. has been issued: _ ‘ “Enlisted men of the reg’ufar and volunteer army who desire to procure a disaharge from the United States service should address a. letter to the adjutant general of the army, setting forth the reasons upon which they base their applications, and hand or mail it to the captain of their company, who in turn is required to forward it through regimental, brigade and divis- ion headquarters with his recommenda- tion. Applications that do not come up in this manner will not be enter- tained. , “All applications must be forwarded immediately, approved or disapproved, as provided in A. R. 765. “Soldiers transferred from one regi- ment to another, and soldiers going on furlough, other than sick furlough in hospitals, perform the journey at their own expense and cannot be furnished government transportation.” ~— Sale of Reading Road. Poughkeepsie, Oct. 7.—Referee Pierre M. Brown sold at foreclosure at the court house yesterday afternoon the Philadelphia, Reading and New Eng-- land Railroad, including the railroad itself, the rights and privileges of the Poughkeepsie bridge that rest in the road, the lease of the Hartford and Connecticut Western road and 13,000 shares of the stock of the leased road, owned by and pledged by the Penn- sylvania, Reading and New England road.

Boynton Blames the Regi- mental Commanders. DISEASEAT CAMP THOMAS Food Was Good. Hospitals W'ere Over After crowded. It Was Much Worse Gen. Brooke’s Attention Was Turned to Porto Rican Campaign, No Reflec- tion Upon Any Officer. Washington, ct. 7,—The examination of General H. V. Boynton, concerning Camp Thomas, was continued before the war investigating commission yes- terday. Governor Beaver asked who was at fault if the campw as crowded. “If such was the case,” 'was the re- ply, “the fault was that of the regi- mental and brigade commanders, as the details were left to them.”’ General Dodge read a complaint pur- porting to be from a soldier of a New York regiment, saying that coffee was issued green to the troops, and then poorly browned; that the meat was tainted and inferior, and that no vege— tables but onions and potatoes were supplied, and that none of the food was palatable. General Bofiiton said that so far as he knew the coffee was not issued green. “There is no foundation for any rea- sonable complaint in regard to the food. It was brought to the army in refrigerator cars and I heard of but two cases in which the meat was spoiled.” said General Boynton. He had inspected the camp of the Eighth New York, because Of com- plaints by Surgeon Terry, and found it very clean and in every respect in good order, except that the sinks were too near the tents. General Dodge also read a letter pur- porting to come from the chaplain of the Eighth New York, the Rev. Dr. James Dooley, saying the camp was a “hell on earth, and that war would be a paradise compared to this place, as for the food, it is rotten.” General Boynton stated that he did not wish to take issue with a chaplain, but after explaining that the Rev. Dr. Dooley had occupied cuts in the head- quarters yard, said: “If they saw such things as they said they did, they were the only ones who did. Their stories were Of a sen— sational character that would do credit to a dime novel." He said their complaints were direct- ed especially at the hospital of the Second division of the Third army corps. General Boynton also replied to char- ges by Surgeon Milo B. Ward of Kan- sis City, ho said in a letter to the com- mission that the camp was without drainage, that the water was unfit to drink, that there was no proper food and that all of the forty-five thousand men in the camp were suffering from intestinal diseases. Surgeon Wood declared that the hos- pitals were overcrowded and that many soldiers had starved' to death and many more would have starved to death but for the attention of the Red 01055 and other societies Of the same charactel. General Boynton expressed his ac- quaintance with these complaints’from Ward, who went about the hotels talk- ing in this line. Nothing could be more exaggerated than such representation, said the general. Of course, in so large a camp some painful things must nec— essarily happen. For instance, when measles broke out the hospitals were quite crowded. “But to say that there was any purposely inflicted neglect is," he declared, “as false as it is possible to be.” General Boynton attributed the pre- valence of disease to the exposure of the regimental kitchen and hospital sinks. These had, he said, in the latter part of the camp’s history, been left uncovered by earth, as was directed by the order of the surgeon general, and this fact, more than all others. he considered responsible for the spread of disease. The trouble began, he said, after General Brooke was ordered to Wash- ington. Prior to that time General Brooke required daily reports from the regimental Officers and prompt atten- tion to any neglect of sanitary precau- tions. This system and the care which ac— companied it had the effect of keeping; the camp in good condition. When General Brooke left for Washington the camp was necessarily in charge of sub- ordinate ofiiccrs. When General Brooke returned his time was devoted almost entirely to preparations for the Porto Rico campaign, so that lie could not give so much heed to sanitary regula- tions as he had previously done. General Boynton said that he (lid not mean to make any reflection upon offi— cers from civil life. but there were some things which they had to learn. and many of them were not experts in sanitation. Furthermore, most people looked up- on the camp as purely temporary, and the fact that all were in daily expecta- tion of receiving orders to move caused many to be indifferent to the future. Torpedo Boar (Contracts. Washington, ct. .——The Bath Iron Company of Bath, Me, has notified the department that it will accept the con- tract for the three torpedo boats which were awarded to that concern. about a fortnight ago. These boats are the Baglcy, named after the late Ensign Bagley, killed at Cardenas; the Barney and the Biddle, and the price to be paid for them is $161,000 each. The delay in finally placing the con- tract has been owin gto the fact that the specifications submitted by the Bath company omitted several mat- ters regarded as essential by the navy department. The company has finally consented to include these, and the contract has been awarded as above stated. Disorders in Paris.
