'° CURED OP

H 1 EC Z3; M A

. I had an attack of Eczema, and ordered a
box of oxide of 'zinc ointment. The first
application changed the Eczema to hell-fire,
which seemed. unquenchable. The druggist

' had used a. rancid cerate and I was poisoned.

A local physician did not hel matters, and
everything either failed to he p, or made it

worse, I was becoming desperate, when I

thought of CUTICURA Rnnnnrns, and dis-

patched my servant for a cake of CUTICUBA

SOAP and a box of CUTICURA (ointment).v

The first application relieved me and in three

 

days I was well.

WHEELER LEAVES CAMP

 

“Fighting Joevvrs Suddenly sum-
moned to Washington.

 

RECEPTION" IN NEW YORK

 

Gen. Wheeler in New York. His Sudden
' Departure from the Camp at Montauk
' Caused Much Comment. It is Rumored
That He is to Have a. Place on the

‘ Peace Commission.

New'York, 'Aug. 17.—Genera.l Joseph
Wheeler came to rtown yesterday, en
route to Washington, on a. sudden order
from the secretary of war. The order
was received in Camp Wikoff Monday
night, and the general started for this
city on the 5.40 o’clock train from
Montauk without getting any break-
fast. His going caused great anguish
among the medical men in camp, whose
quarantine regulations were smashed
to general wreck by the order from
Secretary Alger. It called merely for
General W’heeler’s immediate presence
in Washington. In «the camp the ru-
mor spread that General Wheeler was
to be one of the peace commissioners
not yet appointed, and was hailed with
great enthusiasm. If it is so, the ap-
pointmenvt, will be acceptedby the army
as a most happy recognition of the ser-
vice of the brave volunteers, whom the
old genera-1 with the iron will and un-
bending spirit well typifies.

The train thatcarried the general
ran off a switch at Amaganse-tt and it
took half an hour to get it back again.
General Wheeler went out to the train—
men and watched them work, dropping
a word of advice where it would be of
use. The rest of the way to the city
he was the object of much attention,
being promptly recognized by the pas-
sengers. In the depot at Long Island
City and on the ferry boat the work-
ingmen came up, brushed their hands
clean on their aprons and asked the
privilege of shaking hands with the old
hero, which was readily granted. When
he got rim-toa Thirty-fourth street car
newsboys .hung on behind and shouted
for “General Joe" and there was an in-
formal levee. .

The general went to the Hotel Wal
dorf to meet his children, to Whom he
had telegraphed his coming.
last evening for Washington.

 

. . .1
What Adjutant Corbin Says About It.
Washington, D. 0., Aug." Iii—When

interviewed as to General Wheeler’s ac-

tion in leaving the quarantine detention
camp at Montauk Point Adjutant Gen—
eral Corbin replied:

“He has been ordered to, report to the
secretary of war for military reasons.”

Further than this the adju-tant gen-«
eral would 'not‘talk, declining positively
to go into the question 'of Generdl

Wheeler being exempt from quarantine

restrictions ' *

“There is no necessity .for marking a
scandal of this matter,” continued the

adju-tant general of the army. “General

Wheeler has simply obeyed orders
which called him to Washington.”

SUPPLIES FOR CAMP WIVKOFF

—l——
Tbe Commissary Department Sending
Lots of Fresh Meat. and Good Bread.
New York, Aug. 17.——In order to ex-
pedite the work of completing Camp

Wikoff at Montauk Point the quarter-.

master’s department in the Army build-

ing sent two boat loads of trucks and

teams to the Point. -

Officers of the quartermasrter’s de-
partment were out yesterday engaging
rtrucks wherever they could do so. Fif-
ty were finally secured, each with four
horses and a driver, and were all sent
to Camp. Wikcff on a barge and a ferry
boat. .

Colonel Amos S. Kimball, deputy
quartermaster general, said yesterday:

“The ferry boat and barge will be re-
tained at Montauk Point for service
there. The trucks will be used in un-
loading and' distributing baggage and
stores, and in the work of completing
the construction of the camp. So far
as this department is concerned every;
thing is progressing rapidly.”

Reports from the commissary de-
partment at Camp I‘Vikoff are also fa.-
vora'ble. Colonel Wells Willard aesist-
ant purchasing commissary of subsis-
tence, when seen in the Army building
yesterday, said:

“Fresh 'meat is furnished daily for
Camp Wlkoff by N-éiSOM Morris & Co.,
with whom'the government has a con-

tract. The meat is furnished according '

to"»telegraplhic statements of the needs
of the camp. Major John S. Dmval,
chief commissary at the camp, attends
to this work. .

‘ ”It takes from 15 to 20 cents per man
per day to feed the troops. This sum
includes everything in the army ra-
The fresh bread furnished is as
good as I eat myself. ‘It is taken up
every day from Brooklyn. Monday
3,000 loaves were sent and yesterday
between 6,000 and 8,000 loaves were
sent.

, "The delicacies at the camp are in-
cluded in the commissary department
and are sold to the soldiers at cost.

“All the storehouses have not been
put up. They should have been finish-
ed last Saturday, and they ought to be
finished this Saturday.” - ‘

"Has the commissary departin‘nt de-
cided to give the men cold tea?” was
asked, ‘

-“We furnish tea,” said Colonel Wil-
lard, “and if the soldiers want to cool
it they can do it themselves. Weca-n’t
go around cooling tea.

“The food given the troops at Camp
Wikoff is better than that enjoyed by
the average laborer, and is better by
for than the rations furnished any ar-

-my in the world.”

 

Allison Not ‘to Serve..

Washing-ton, Aug. 17.—The authori-
tative announcement was made yester-
day that Senator Allison of Iowa will
not be a member of the peace commis-
sron.

In along interview a membership on
the commission was urged upon him
by the president. Senator Allison, how-
ever, was no tabletolaccept on account
of other important duties. .

‘ ALLEGED (El—13:!“ SCHEME ~14
Plan "to Occupy. Santiago Jointly With
theAniericaus. ' .

Santiago de Cuba, Aug. 17.——General
Wood, through the vigilance of the se-
cret service men, learned yesterday
that he Cubans had planned to make an
attempt later in the month to Occupy
the city jointly with the Americans, in
pursuance of their desire to share the
civil administration of the town wl_th_
the American officers and place their
flags on the public buildings.

The plan of the Cubans, Gen. Wood
learns, is not to resort to any violence,
but 'to attempt to'ma-rch into the town
peaceably.

The details ‘of the scheme, however,
are not yet known to the Americans,

'but the Spanish and Cuban residents ‘

of the town who know of the plan are
very rfluch opposed to it.

‘T‘hey have petitioned the American
officers to remain and preserve order,
and nothing is more certain than that
the Cubans will not be allowed to enter
the city. ‘

The Morro road, by whichythe Cu—
bans had planned to come to Santiago.
is guarded by the Fifth regiment of im-
munes, commanded by Colonel Star-
gen't, whose orders are to let no bodies
of armed men pass.

Every one has been disarmed in the

toWn under the terms of the proclama-
tion issued by General Shatter after
the news of the signing of the peace
protocol arrived.
. Hundreds of machetes have been tak-
en possession of and stored in the pub-
lic arsenals. Garcia’s army is now on
a twenty-eight day furlough, and most
of his men are at their'homes.

The health of the town under the im-
proved sanitary conditions is becoming
better. No new cases of yellow fever
have been reported. The sickness am-
ong the Spanish prisoners, howev‘er, is
increasing, 3,146 cases of illness having
been reported to General Wood yester—
day. ' '

The principal complaints are malig-
nant malaria and acute dysentery. The
malaria is of an exceedingly deadly
type. The men loaded on board the
transports to be sent back to Spain
are in a wretched condition.

The transport ship Leonewill sail
for Montauk Point to-d-ay with the En-
nis Light Battery and parts of differ-
ent infantry regiments. ‘ ‘

SPAIN STIRRED UP.
Anglo Russian Conflict Arousee Dread.

Madrid, Aug.‘17.———El Liberal. discus-‘
sing the possibility" of P“ conflict bet-
ween Great Britain and Russia, thinks
it a causeof fresh peril to Spain, and
urges that special preparations be made
for the defence of the Balearic islands
and the coast towns of Andalusia." It
says: '

“For three years we have sought to
defend our honor and Spanish sover-
eignsty in the colonies. To—day we are
threatened with another danger. 'We
have to defend our home-s.”

According to El Tem‘po, the organ of
the'Dissident Conservatives, Senor Sil-
vela, the Merchant that party, intends
to block the 'gmrernme‘n't’s policyi

The queen regent has personally
thanked the. French government for’l'ts
good offices in obtaining peace, and-has
charged Senor Leon y Castillo, the‘iSpa-
nish ambassador at Paris, to inform M.
Delcasse, the'French minister of- for—
eign affairs, thart‘her majesty has con-
ferred upon him the g and cross’o'f‘the
Order'of Carlos III.

A similar distinction is bestowred up-
on M. Patenotle, the French ambassa-
dor at Madrid. .

El Imparcial publishes a letter from
Havana, whose writer asserts that Gen.
Blanco "had succeeded in ho-odwinking
the Americans as to Admiral [Cervera’s

~whereabouts," but that the Madrid gov-

ernment “frustrated his plans by an-
nouncing .the arrival of the squadron
at Santiago de Cuba."

Senor Sagasta, on leaving the palace
yesterdaynftexrn-oon ‘denied that Gen-
eral Blanco and other generals were
opposing the government’s pclicy,‘ as
had been alleged. '

 

. Robson’s Birthday. .

New York, Aug. 17.—-'.I‘his is the 28th
birthday of Constructor lichmond
Pearson Hobson, and he is spending it
in this city.

At the Army and Navy Club, where
he makes his headquarters, some de-
monstration in honor of the day may
be'made. ‘ . ’ '

The lieu-tenant has "arefully refrain-
ed from referring to his birthday, as
he wished to spend it quietly, but ad-
miring friends have kept “tab" on the
day. . ' '

Mrs. Hobson, his mot-her, is not with
him, as she left for Salisbury, N. c...
yesterday. . '

For the past few weeks she has been
visiting friends on East Seventeenth
and ”West. Thirty-fifth streets.

Lieu-tenant Hobson‘s sister came .to
New York from Morristown yesterday,
and several photographs of the three
were taken.

Lieutenant Hobson was at Tompkins-
ville, S. I., testing the air bags yester-
day \'.-'hic'h are to raise~ the Spanish
warships sunk off Santiago.

 

Rejoicing 'Over Peace.
