Kalamazoo, Mich., October 9. Gen
eral Shatter has been here since last
Thursday and will remain several days
more visiting old friends and scenes
of his boyhood. . Speaking of the work
of the war investigating commission he
said: .V .. : '
"General Wheeler's testimony before
the commission, is forcible and convln
ciug, but wail until the line officers tell
their .stories. They will not boas cau
tious as General ' Wheeler, but will tell
things that will not only corroborate
General Wheeler, bat be much stron
ger. '
"General Miles and others may say
that this commission is not legal. Per
haps not, but the testimony it is bring
ing out will satisfy the publio that the
sWlog about neglect, starvation and
needless suffering of the troops at San
tiago have been grossly exaggerated for
political purposes."

that he must surrender. At any time
we could have taken Santiago in two
hours, but it would have cost 2,000 men,

Of course, there was a great deal of
suffering and sickness. My losses were
a great deal more than 1 would have
wished but a great' deal less than might
have been the case. My orders were

The following letter is reported to
ave liecn sunt to Secretary of War
Alger by members of this regiment.
The names of those who signed the loi
ter were not gtveu to The JOurualaud
Tribune reporter with the copy of the
letter: . '
T'Jiird North Carolina Regiment,'
(5.11 Companler)
Sepu is, leas.
To the Secretaiy of War:
Dear Sir We, the undersigned many
soldiers, heard that you had been in
strucied that we wanted to stay In
service as garrison duty, but, my dear
sir, we are now pleading with mercy
and deny any such report as there has
been reported and we feel that our su
perior officers have treated ns wrong to
hold us in service without we knowing
anything about It.
We the underalgned did not join the
service for garrison duly. Wo only sac
rificed our lives aaA left our homes sira
ply for the honor of our flag and the de
struction of our country and families
as the war was going on at the time
but now the war is over and we do feel
that we might be mustered out of ser
vice because we are getting letters from
our fimilles every. day or two slating
the suffering condition, and, oh my God,
the way we are treated. We have to
drill harder than any other regiment on
the grounds, and after drilling so hard
we have to work so hard. We have to
cut ditches, sink holes and fill up gullies,
put in water pipes. We, the Third
North Carolina Regiment soldiers, has
not had but one pair of pants, one coat.
two undershirts, one tap shirt. We are
In a bad fix.,- Our food is not fit to eat,
and oh, my dear air, we are bound np
in a little place about 400 f jet long, three
feet wide. Just think of the confine'
ment we are nnder because we volun
teered freely to fight for our country.
We, the undersigned, many soldiers,
did not volunteer for garrison duty, and
we do not think that our honorable
government will take advantage of
willing and faithful men who came to
the rescue of the flag, Stars and Stripes
We have a great deal more to tell you
but we cannot express ourselves like it
ouKbt to be done.
Down at Fort Macon we was misled!
The question was asked Who wanted to
slay in service and go to the front
if necessary, called npoa them to raise
bands, but the qnestlon never was asked
if we wanted to do garrison duty. If
thoy bad asked that question we never
would have been In Knoxville to-day,
Why don't you know as a good
thinking man that we don't want to
luave our wives and families to goon
garrison duty. Why If so you wo"M
have more applications In the Whit
House than the mall box would lia.s
hell.
You know that these officers is get
ting a very good salary, and I hey would
go in three miles of bell after Chat dol
Inr, but we, who are ra men, did
not corns for the sake of that III 0'), hu

Washington, October 10. Bishop
Whipple, of Minnesota, who Is attend
ing the Episcopal convention, at Wash
ington, says of the Indian uprising In his
States "The Indians at Bear Island have
always refused civilization; The whole
difficulty , has been due to fire water,
which was smuggled to them. The In
dian police are good fellows, bat they
appear to be unable to prevent the In
troduction of whisky among their breth
ren, and when these Indians become
drunk they are veritable devils. The
Dunlshment for smuggling liquor to
them should be made more severe, and
the practice might be broken up. There
is not the slightest cause for the belief
that a general uprising will ocour. There
six thousand Chippewas In Mlnnesots,
and they have always been friends of the
whites, and as a rule they are honest
and law-abiding." War Department offic
lals say the trouble la now all Over.

THE YELLOW FEVER.
Appeal rr Hmlanal Hrlp.
Jackson, Miss., Oct, 9. More from a
business standpoint than any other, the
yellow fever is injuring the State of Mis
sissippi. It is a lamentable fact that in
the infected places, and many others
surrounding them, all bnsineeas is practi
cally suspended. From fifty to ninety
per cent, of the white population have
aoanaoneu luelr homes ana sought
safety in distant points, leaVing every
business Interest virtually nncarcd for.
Many very many, have had to mort
age their homes to raise money to enable
them to leave. The ones who cannot
get away are mostly those with small
incomes, ; ' '
Appeals have been sent to the President
from Mississippi for relief during the
scourge of yellow fever, and it has been
determined by the administration to
the appeal effectivelj and promptly.
The relief will be distributed through
the marine hospital corps.

, Wabhinotok, October 10. Secretary
Alger has gone to Omaha, and he left
Washington in an excellent humor.
Whatever may have been his expecta
tions of the evidence that would be given
before the Commission that is investi
gating the war, he could not have ex
pected anything more complimentary on
the whole to the War Department than
the witnesses thus far examined have
said.,: :-
There isn't the slightest doubt that the
general public has been greatly surprised
by the evidence. It was expected that
some mismanagement would bV shown
by the teslimoney of almost every wit
ness, but such lias not been the caso.and
the wituehses have included men, who
certainly should have known of the exis
tence of anything that was very bad-
such as Generals Lee, Wheeler, Bpyntou
and Greene, the last of whom said he
thought that the only trouble was caused
by the army rvguluticns, which had been
adopted in time of peace, not being
adapted to the exigenries of war. ,
