C "Post" of Wednesday of last week, the 24th inst. Editor Post: Last Friday's Washing ton papers stated that as soon as it be came known that certain volunteer reg iments had been selected to lie mustered out, protests began to be sent to the war department strongly opposing the same and objecting to discharge before seeing some actual service. These protests, it was said, came "from officers, politi cians, and others, but none was report ed from the rank and file of the regi ments. I do not know how the men of other commands may feel, but will domv be-*t to set forth the position of the Fifteenth Pennsylvania Volunteers and the opin ions of the great majority of the regi ments concerning the matter of being mustered out. The Fifteent 1 " left their homes "for war' April 27 and lay in camp at Mount Gretna, Pa., until the 11th of June. During this period ex peditions were l>eing formed and regi ments assigned to them. Onr com mander had a chance to take his regi ment to Manila, but let it slip through his fingers. Jnne 12 we came to Fort W ashmgton and have been garrisoned here ever since. We felt on arrival that here we would stay till the end of the war and neyer see any actual campaigning. The regiment's captains, like the great ma jority of their men. felt dissatisfied with our assignment and proposed a concert ed movement to secure a change to greater activity, but the higher officers seemed very well content with their snap job and not only refused to take part in the movement, but the colonel rolled his eyes in astonishment, feigned or real, and came down on the project flat-footed. Hostilities have now ceased and the war is practically over unless difficulties arise with the Cubans themselves. To preyent or settle such troubles troops will haye to be stationed in Cuba and other new acquisitions. Most of the offi cers have found it very nice and fine to do nothing all day long and draw salar ies ranging from $125 to SSKX) permonth. while the men in the ranks, who gener ally made as good wages, and in some cases a great deal more, at home, djaw their "little $15.60 per." So it is only human that the officers wish to make their soft snaps continue as long as pos sible. and, sad to say, it seems that they are willing to do so at the expense of their men, sacrificing the rights and nn donbtly blasting the future of many. The newspapers stated not long ago that two officers of *he Fifteenth had been at the war department in Wash ington trying to hav& their regiment as signed to occupy some post in the Phili ppines or other islands, and at the pres ent writing another is away from camp, presumably trying to further this de sign. Of course every one. officer or private, knows best why he does or does not wish to continue army life. We. for our part, know that four-fifths of the Fifteenth Regiment are sick and tried of millitary life as viewed from the standpoint of garrison duty and object most strongly to spending the next twen ty months in existence so lacking in pur pose and usefulness. We see no honor in being sent to occupy Cuba after Spain has surrendered it. It's true we enlist ed for "two years unless sooner dis charged." If the war lasted two or twenty years we expected to stay with it. but if the war is over we wish to be returned to our homes to resume the peaceful pursuits we left in the hope of serving our country. If Uncle Sam has no more use for us we feel that he should discharge us. The garrison duty belongs to the regulars, who make sol diering a business. The great majority of us feel this way, and yet "officers, politicians, and others' go to the war department and state there and to the world that we object to being mustered out, but wish to continue in this tent ed exile. In asserting this they simply try to make Secretary Alger and the public believe a lie. Now let it be understood that an over whelming majority of the Fifteenth Pennsylvania Volunteers want no ad ditional twenty months of garrison duty and if we are not needed to suppress guerrilla bands of Cubans in actual war fare we consider onr government under obligation to muster us out of the ser yice No matter what any salary daz zied officer or designing politician may say, this is the truth. E H. NEGLEY, Company E. Fifteenth Pa. Vol. Fort Washington, Md. This letter caused a sensation in the camp, and Col. Kreps telephoned from Washington to place Negley under arrest, and he was threatened with court martial and imprisonment. The letter was answered in the same paper next day, by one signed by a Sergeant named Ludwig, but snppos ed to have been written by Major Craw ford, in which a feeble denial of Neg ley's charges was made, and that was followed by one of Private Lewis of the Grove City company in which he said. "I noticed by this morning's issue of your paper that Sergt. Ludwig. of Company C. Fifteenth regiment United States Volunteers, lias taken exception to the statement of E. H. Negley, Com pany E, Fifteenth regiment, in which he says that Negley is only speaking tor himself and a few of the rank and file. The following figures will prove that Sergt. Lndwig's statement is incorrect. His own company and 75 men out of 106 signed a petition Asking the Governor of Pennsylvania to use his influence to have them mustered out. The other companies signed as follows: Com pany K, 90; Company E, !)(); Com pany F, 90; Company G, 89. Companies A, B and D were intimidated by officers and threatened with a court martial. We cannot see that N egley made any assault on the integrity of our officers. While we have the greatest respect for our officers, we do not wish to be re tained for garrison duty and sacrifice our personal interests at home." And Lewis was promptly arrested by order of Krex>s and placed in the guard house. OUR BOYS IN CAMP. Co. E, Itogiuicnt, Fort Washington, M<l. Your correspondent was responsible for a communication in the Washing ton Post of the 24th, inst, which per haps yon an- publishing elsewhere in the CITIZKN and which at any rate many of your readers have seen. As the Pitts burg Times correspondent stated, that letter diil create a furore in the camp, but only certain officers were mad about it. Nine-tenths of the regiment's rank and tile agree with the writer and upheld the letter. Your scribe was se vererely reprimanded and later arrested by the colonel's order from Washing ton On the 25th, a contradictory letter appeared in the Post from a C man, which said the 15th was not composed of poltroons who shirked duty when it became irksome. We n*iw> with him. Srtmes.iv the signer did not write this letter but. only affixed hi< name aft*-r it was written. < >ll the 2Cth-tEe following appeared • Editor Post. I noticed by this morning's issne of your valued paper that Sergt. Ludwig. of Company C". 1 if teenth Regiment United States \olun teers. has taken exception to the state ment of E. H. Negley. Company E Fif teenth Regiment, in which he says that Negley is only speaking for him-elf and a verv few of the rank and file. The following figures will prove that Sergt Lugwig's statement is incorrect. His own company had 75 men out of I |M > sign a petition asking the Governor of Pennsylvania to use his influence to have them mustered out. The other companies signed as follows: Company K. !#»: Companv E. W: Company F. !»<»; Company G, 8!.». Companies A. I!, and D were intimidated by officers and threatened with a court-martial. We cannot see that Negley made any assault on the integrity of our officers - While we have the greatest respect for our officers, we do not wish to be re tained for garrison duty and sacrifice our i«ersonal interests at home. IEAD LEWIS, Companv F.Fifteenth Regiment U. S. V LelHswasat once put under arrest also. Thnrsdaj evening, to gam an expres sion of theopiuions of the men. the offi cers presented a paper to each company and we were asked to put down out 1 names in one of three columns on that paper. The first column was in effect "we are ready and willing to do gar rison or any other duty during the re mainder of our enlistments : the second read "we want onr discharge '. the third was non committal. We were told that the paper might be kept as a record against signers of *he second column Friday morning Co. E. unanimously agreed not to have anything to do with the paper, deeming it unfairly stated. Co. A. did likewise. In G out of seven ty signatures more than sixty were in the second column and in C twenty-two signed the first column and fortyeight the second. , , These companies, on hearing how A and E had treated the papers, resolved to do likewise. We do not know what the result was at Fort Sheridan. Previous to this over sixty members of Co. E signed a statement that they wished to be mustered out, while only eight indicated that they wished to do garrison duty. This paper is still in the company. We are not homesick, or cowards, poltroons or shirkers of duty, but we have laid in our little tents as a garrison four months while the war was l>eing fought and the victory won. During all this time we heard of bnt one feeble effort to have the 1 "ith sent to the front where there was a possibility of being shot at. Now that all danger is past some people are seized with a desperate panic to get to the front. Why. oh whv this wonderful change? Why are the rank and file supposed to be willing to enjoy (?) twenty months more of garrison duty, when weemphat ically are not. Why does someone think that after a few weeks occupation of a foreign post that we will become indifferent, resigned to onr fate? Are American Volunteers usually an in different grade of people? Does the lowly station of a private or noncoini>h make a slave of a man? God forbid that we ever become indifferent to such a state of affairs. Why wish to pro long your services in a war that, though marked by great deeds and great vie tories, has also been replete in political intrigue and favoritism. In which ten times more ink than blood has been spilled. We say this with a comrades reverence for the noble men who have given up their lives through wounds or sickness. Let those who like garrison soldiering do it as regulars: send the volunteers to their homes and work where they are of some real use to their country. No one would have heard anything of this widespread howl from the volunteers, had others not tried to tell our wishes, and did so incorrectly. Tuesday last several Co.. E boys took an excursion to Colonial Beech, fifty six miles down the Potomac on the "Jane Mosley". The}* enjoyed salt water swims and a general day of pleas ure, another excursion to the same place is billed for Sept. 7. Sergt. O'Dounel and privates Brown and Oreen are back from their visits home, all looking the better for their few days off. Friday we received new clothes, near ly every one now has much more than he could carry during a day's march. Saturday we signed the muster roll for our August pay and Wednesday, the a Ist monthly inspection and muster in will be held. Pay day some time next week. Saturday morning we were ordered to "fall in" in front of our tents, strip ped to our waists, barefooted and pants rolled up above our knees. Then our officers inspected us and found that we kept our bodies clean. Chaplin Hays and Mr. Howe address ed us Sunday morning. Miss Lottie Otto, formerly of Butler and now of Manorville Pa., visited her brother Hyle of C during the day. One morning last week Sergt. Vr.n derlin and Moore and Corp. Martin fail ed to rise in time for roll at reveille. A little later the rest laughed and cheered as the three noncoms. marched past the dining tent with a keg of lime and shovels to disinfect the sinks All last week's sick people have re covered. There are two "E's" men with a little fever in the hospital now. If looks indicate anything, everyone is gaining flesh since melons became plenty. The flies which pestered us at first have been greatly reduced in num bers by horuets, but now mosquitoes come charging into our tents company front at night, making life miserable and sleep almost impossible. This morning John Huselton, Ralph Minks, George and Oscar Shaffer returned from their visits home. E. H. NEGLEY. WAR RECORD On Saturday President McKinley and party made a tour of Camp Meade :it Middletown and expressed himself as l>eing greatly pleased with it. There was quite a scene in the camp of the Third Missouri that morning when the men received news of their master out. They cheered and yelled and danced like wild men ;:nd in a trice the regimental band was trotted out find heightened the excitement by audi lively strains as "When Johnny Comes Marching Home." Col. Gross heard tht cheers and strains of the band in his tent and was greatly displeased. He ordered assembly and had the call to quarters sounded, l>nt the men paid no attention to it. Exasperated further by this spirit of disobedience. Col. Gross mounted his charger and gallop ed up to the brtid. Waving his sword, he veiled: "Who ordered you men out? Go back to your quarters' The men answered with hoots yells and hisses. Angered almost beyond endurance the colonel summoned the ofiicers of the companies to which the 'men belonged and gave them a raking for allowing them to make such de monstrations. Then, with the exclam ation: "You are a disgrace to the regi ment and will have to pay tor this' Col. Gross galloped off. Hustings' Hospital Train. During the later part of last week Gov. Hastings went to Philadelphia where he raised $5,000 and with it chartered and equipped a hospital train of 1H cars. lie went with it to Chicka maligna and there selected 21-i-sick sol diers from the hospitals and brought them home and distributed them among the hospitals of their home towns or to their homes. The tiain was well supplied with nurses and necessaries, it accomplished its mission without accident <ir delay, and thns reflected great credit upon Gov. Hastings. K\"l»o»o ami I'liui-li tlx- <>nili\ We have whipped the Spaniards on ! land and sea without half trying, and a | war of not exceeding one hundred days of actual biittle closed with the ino.it brilliant naval victories in the I world's history, and with decisive triumph* for our armies in Cuba. Porto Rico and the Philippines. There is po longer a conflict lietween ' the armies of the I niled States and j Sprin. but there is an irrepressible - war npon us for the exhaustive exposure and relentless punishment of the in competents and speculators who de prive our brave men in the field of I proper rations, medical stores and at tendance. and this war must be waged as lons as an incompetent or a thief i - unwhipped of justice, j Oar killed and wounded in action did not numbers one per cent of the entire army, and lmt little over ten per cent of the troops engaged in the bloodiest fight of modern times for the capture Santiago: but many, many thousand of onr brave soldiers, regulars and volunteers, have been literally murder ed by the incompetent or corrupt man agement of the War Department. Generous allowance must be made for the haste with which the army had to be forced into Cuba. But there was no excuse whatever for want of medi cal stores, medical attention and pro er food for sick and well. Mere than one-half of all the deaths and shattered constitutions which tell the fearful story of the Santiago campaign conld have been averted with every ordinary business methods and energy by the heads of departments: and even when the truth was published from day to day. and when Major General Miles gave the unvarnished facts to the Gov ernment. no practical methods were adopted to furnish relief to our suffer erir.g soldiers. Equal incompetency and _ negle-t were exhibited in the location an t management of the leading camps, where our soldiers were thrown togeth i er by tens of thousands only to con tract fearful disease and submit to the needless sacrifice of life. Both the Chickamauga Camp and Camp Alger, in Virginia, proved to be simply plague spots with thousands of men huddled into them. In both the States the amp i lest supply of pnre water, with perfect ly healthy location, conld have l»een fonnd. but neither had anything i approaching sufficient water supply. [ and what they had was impure and bred disease with fearful rapidity. There can be no excuse given for ■ these blunders, and those who are re sponsible for the incompetency or neg ligence that has cost the lives of thou sands of soldiers who never met the enemy, and given many thousands of others hopelessly shattered constitu tions, must answer to an indignant country for these fearful wrongs The President is now relieved of the exacting duties of war. and he is ir responsible head of the government, to whom the nation looks for the exposure and punishment of the men who have so recklessly sacrificed the lives a.id health of scores of thousands of our soldiers. Let the President begin the inquiry and prosecute it to the end. It mnst be made honestly, fearfully and thoroughly. No matter upon whom the blame shall fall, the punishment must belit the crime —Philadelphia Times. PRIVATE NEGLEY, of the Fifteenth Pennsylvania, lias been arrested for trial by court-martial for publishing the statement that three-fourths of that regiment desire to be mustered out of service and premitted to go home. If the statement was one of fact it is diffi cult to see that Mr. Negley was guilty of any crime. He did. on a small scale, what Colonel Roosevelt did at Santiago —acquainted the public with facts his superior officers did not want known. Technically, this might be construed as insubordination; practically, it is a public service. The court-martial sit ting in his case, if wisely constituted, will promptly release him.
