Henry Kirk Woodbridge, son of the warden of the state prison at Wethers- field, is under arrest on the charge of alleged embezzlement of state prison funds. He was arrested in New Haven at the Hotel Garde early Sunday even- ing and later taken to Hartford. Wood- bridge is about 29 years of age, and was clerk in the state prison for upwards of five years until last July, when the directors deemed a change advisable, and he was succeeded by L. W. Bart- lett. The latter gentleman soon dis ycovered irregularities in the books and reported the fact to the directors, who commenced an investigation. Thus far they have examined the books for two years, and it is stated that they found upwards of $2,000 had been misappro- priated. Neither Warden Woodbridge nor the prisoner will say anything rela- tive to the affair. It is claimed that he manipulated signed checks left by the warden, and by means. of chemicals removed the name of the payee, although little could be learned as to the case.

GERTAIN CAMPS URITICISED Defence of the Medical Officers at Camp 'Thomas. Regimental Officers Blamed. The Medical Stores Given Out in a Parsimonious Manner. Washington, Nov. 15.-—The war in- quiry commission resumed the exam- ination of witnesses yesterday, with Dr. R. S. Huidekoper, lieutenant colo- nel of volunteers on the stand. He said that he had occupied the po- sition of chief medical officer of the First army corps at Camp Thomas, at Chickamauga Park, until the 23d Of July, when he went to Porto Rico with General Brooke. Speaking of the supply depot, he said that there was a. good supply of some articles and a. superabundance of oth- ers at the beginning of the history of Camp Thomas; but that this condition of affairs did not long continue. He had immediately undertaken to regulate re- quisitions so as to equalize them in the various divisions of the command. At one time he had to appeal to Gen- eral Brooke to get the supplies neces- sary, the deputy surgeon general in- sisting upon being guided by the sup- plies on the table, which was not a fair test. “Do you not know,” asked Dr. Con- ner, “that there was a. full supply of medical stores at the depot at Lytle?" “I know many articles were lack- ing,” the doctor replied, and added that it was not true, as had been stated, that there was a full supply. .He had made constant representa- tions to the surgeon general of the shortage of supplies. He had never turned down any requisitions from the. division hospitals, except on one occa- sion, except when he knew that the articles were not on hand. He had refused his sanction to a. re- quisition for flooring for hospital tents when General Brooke had expected to move. He contended that there had been a sufficiency of tentage, saying that no patients had been compelled to lie out without covering for any length of time. It was true, however, that there were occasions on which the sick men had been kept for several days at a. time under the tent flies. “The Second and Third division hos- pitals,” he said, in reply to a question, “were always clean and well ordered.” Both institutions were well built, but they had suffered throughout for lack pf proper attendance. There was never a sufficient number of hospital corps men. , ’ 0n the other hand, the First division hospital was not so well conducted. for lack of discipline, due to the pros- pect of removal. He had repeatedly called attention to the lack of nurses, and about the first of July there was an increase of hospital corps men in re- sponse to his representations. The sup- ply was never equal to the demand. Reverting to the question of tentage, Dr. Huidekoper said he knew, of his own knowledge, that the surplus tent- age at the reserve hospital was turned over to the division hospitals, and that tents had been held there to the detri- ment of other hospitals. Colonel Huidekoper said that he had succeeded in getting supplies only by being the first on hand, as the medical depot was run in a very parsimonious manner. There was not only a great scarcity of important drugs, such as quinine and opium, but a. disposition on the part of the purveyor not to give out what there was. Dr. Huidekoper said that, with a few unimportant exceptions, the medical supplies for the Porto Rican expedition had been ample. At Newport News he had given or- ders that the sick men be eliminated from the command, but he found that the order had been evaded and sick men taken aboard. This was especial- ly true of the Third Illinois regiment. whose surgeon, Dr. Huidekoper said, had persisted from the start in break- ing the spirit, if not the letter, of the law. The regiment had left sick at every town that it had visited. Responding to a request from ex~ Governor Beaver, Dr. Huidekoper de— tailed the particulars of his education - as a physician, giving also his experi- ence in military service. He said that he had graduated as a physician from the University of Penn- sylvania in 1874 and afterwards had studied much in Paris, Berlin and oth- er European capitals, and had had con— siderable experience in hospitals and in‘ general practice. He went to Europe a. second time on the recommendation of Dr. Hayes Agnew, who desired to es- tablish a veterinary hospital. After re: turning to this country ‘he went to New York and was engaged, largely in the manufacture of toxines, only practis- ing medicine in charity cases. He had been.a. surgeon in the Penn- syqlvania National Guard from 187; to 1893, being brigade surgeon most of the time, covering the Homestead strikes and the Johnstown flood. The witness asserted that the sick in Porto Rico had had good attention con- tradict-ling the assertion of Colonel Hartsuff that there had been negli- gence. He said it was not true that Dr. Hartsuff had taken charge of a hospital, as the latter had stated, be- cause of mismanagement. Dr. Hartsuff had volunteered to take a hospital on one occasion, but 1 of- fer had been. declined,‘so that t was: all on paper. “In fact,” the witness added, “Gen- eral Brooke would have stopped him if he had attempted to do so.” The Kaiser‘s Propels.

ANORWALKwGAZETTE. Large Shipment of Ammunition to Down _ ey’s Fleet. Norfolk, Va., Nov. 15.-_-The largest shipment of ammunition" made from the government magazine since the peace protocol was signed was made yesterday, when a train of the South- ern Railroad left with 25,000 shells of the six-pound size for Mare Island navy yard, San Francisco. From an official source it is learned that the shells are intended for Rear Admiral Dewey’s fleet at Manila. Night and day work is now going on on the gunboat Princeton, in pursuance of an order of the navy department to have her ready for sea. as quickly as possible. The Princeton is to Join Rear Admi- ral Scliley’s eastern squadron, now forming in Hampton Roads. Work is also being pushed on the monitors Puritan and Terror so that they may be available for service at short notice. ' The repairs to the San Francisco may keep her here a. year if no emer- gency arises. Dingley Says “No Revision.” Washington, Nov. 15.——The Washing- ton Post says that the war tax will not be abolished at the coming short ses- sion of Congress and that there will be no revision of the tariff whatever. It bases this announcement upon the pos- itive statement made by Chairman Dingley of the ways and means com- mltt’ee, who, in an interview, said: "The government will need for some time all the revenue produced by the war taxes. During the month of OctOc her the war expenditures exceeded the war revenue by some $14,000,000, and this month they will be $10,000,000 in excess. This being the case, there will be no change this fiscal year. The war revenue act will continue in force and unchanged ,oxcept, perhaps, in a few minor administrative features, for at least a year longer. "It is hardly necessary to add,” con- tinued Mr. Dingley, “that there will be no revision of the tariff,. although I have seen some statement to the effect that such a revision is contemplated.” Croker’s Western Visit. Chicago, Nov. 15.—Richard Croker, the great Tammany leader, is here. In an interview last evening he said: “My visit to Chicago has nothing to do with politics. I am going to the springs at West Baden, Indiana, for rest and to try another cure for dys- pepsia. While I am in Chicago I shall call on some of the boys who came to New York to help‘ elect Van Wyck mayor. There is a. friendly feeling be- tween Mayor Harrison and myself, yOu know, and I shall see him to-morrow. But there will be no politics in it. I want to say that any stories about my cominggout here to form a. political deal with your mayor are wrong, all wrong. I am seeking rest and health, nothing more." Glass Factories Start Up. Pittsburg, Pa., Nov. 15.—Window glass factories; with—ma - capacity of about 1,100 pots, haVe started work and nearly ten thousand men and boys are earning their first money in more than half a year.

The fire began on the morning of Ce- tober 16. It started in the Green Tree saloon as the result of a. row between two women of the town. Belle Mitchell threw a. lighted lamp at another woman. The lamp broke, the oil spread, and in a few seconds the building Was on fire. Miles Omitted an Important Order. W’ashington, D.

Charles P. Began. Washington, D. 0., Nov. 15.—The re- port of Lieutenant Colonel Charles P. Essen, commie-cry of subsistence of the army, has been submitted to the secretary of war. , It shows an. expenditure of $6,008,715, with a balance of $20,222,089 to the cred- it of the bureau. ‘ After detailing the conditions of the ization for the war with Spain, Gen- eral Eagan comes to the Santiago cam- paign, of which he says: “A very serious freight blockade at and In the neighborhood of Tampa. in May and June, 1898, was caused by the celerity with which the troops and their supplies were concentrated at that place in preparation for the invasion of the island of Cuba. This blockade was a. matter of grave concern to the subsistence department and it was only after the most peremptory orders of the commissary general of subsistence to unload cars and to hire warehouses, if necessary, that the officers of the de- partment on the spot were enabled with unflagglng zeal and untlrinz en- way of the newspaper reports. The officials give little credence to this story. They, say it is frequently the case when a. vessel is hurried away from the navy yard, after hasty re- pairs, as was the Buffalo, things go wrong to~such an extent as to excite suspicion in some minds that evil-min- ded persons are responsible. The finding of small articles belong- ing to sailors inside of the condensers is not of itself a fact unexplainable, except upon the theory of conspiracy to damage the ship. Such things have often been inclosed in boilers and cylinders by careless workmen. The bad condition of the valves referred to as an evidence of tampering, is explained by the fact that the machinery of the Buffalo suf- fered much, not-only from neglect, but from bad handling, during the several years she lay at anchor in Brazilian waters.
