traveled neuily n thuiisiind miles for
the purpose of hurrying to Philadel
phia the sick soldlcis of the Third
Pennsylvania rcRliuoiit, pulled Into
Fornnndinn a few minutes before 3
o'clock yesterday afternoon, almost
live hours behind schedule time. Loss
than an hour later the fever allllcted
I'eniisylvniihins were being placed
aboard the hospital train and ninde ns
comfortable as possible. The Third
reslment boys were not piesent to see
their sick comrades placed on the train.
This regiment had received orders to
proceed to Huntsvllle. Ala., and go Into
camp.
The train currying the Third reached
I3akersvllle, six mlhs above this place,
about the same time the hospital train
nrilved. The boys nave three hearty
cheers for the Philadelphia city coun
cil, and cheered again and ntruin for the
three hospitals which are represented
by trained nurses and physicians on
the train, it was an Inspiring sight to
see the ruddy sons of old Penti raise
their hats as the hospital train started
away, and one which will long be re
inembeied by the councllmanlc com
mittee and others on the train.
Nearly all the sick men are suffering
from malnila, there being but a few
serious cases of typhoid fever on the
train. None of the patients weie In a
tent. "When the Third regiment left
Fernandliiu yesterday morning they
rented a house and placl'd the sick in
comfortable quarters. There were
three men left behind, their condition
being so serious that It was fiecmcfl ad
visable to leave them here. It was
nearly C.30 when the last patient was
placed on the train. After taking some
ice and other supplies on board, the
train, at 6 o'clock, started on Its Jour
ney northward.
A PLEA FOR FOOD.
The N'eoil For ItoIIor In Cuba I Ex

Now York, Aug. 2C G. W. Hyatt.
the Hed Cross agent at Key West, who
was a prominent lluvunn merchant,
hns been engaged In sending small re
lief expeditions to various points on
the Cu.han -coast. Itolatlve to this work
ljtt-Writes to Stephen H. Uarton ns fol
lows: "I am happy to Inform you that the
last two expeditions of food I sent to
Cuba, one to Cardenas and one to the
coaHt above Sagua la Grande, arrived
safely nnd were delivered tn thn hnn
nry women and children, to their great
delight. A part of that sent to the
sJiores near Cardenas was carried on
men's backs neaily to Matanzas and
distributed to the hungry. My men do
ing this work have returned here and
are begging for more food. Mntanzas,
Havana and Plnar del Hlo provinces
aie suffering horribly. Notwithstand
ing you havo so much work to do In
the dltferent volunteer camps In thn
United States, I most sincerely hope
that the Cuban lellef committee will
not forget that there are many thous
nnds In Cuba who are starving. If It
meets your approval I propose to send
a small amount of provisions (Hay two
or three tons) to Havana by the Mas
cotte or other conveyance, to be im
mediately distributed.
"Work In Cuba can bo carried on
with perfect safety. I am only too
anxious to try It. and with the least
possible delay. I nm surrounded con
stantly by persons begging for relief
for their families In Cuba. Can any
thing be done to aid some of the most
worthy Cuban families to return to
UnvanaV Some have property there,
and can go and live in their own
houses: others have friends nnd rela
tives, but none has a cent with which
to get to Havana, and they are now
living on the charity distributed by
the Hed Cross."

the frightened animals dashed through

for their lives in all directions. Nobo;iy

yesterday met the committee of tho
lirst named club formally.
Sir. Russell, who left the meeting af
ter a half an hour's talk, declined to

would be improper for him to reveal
what took place at the meeting. He
said he was well pleased nt the man

tened to by the committee.
After tho departure of Mr. Hussell
the committee remained in session for
over half an hour, after which Secre

"Mr. Ilussell expressed himself quito
freely witli reference to what 1b ex
pected by the Itoyal Ulster Yacht club,
lie Is perfectly satisfied with tho way
In which things are proceeding, and
Is willing to leave everything in our
hands."
The mater of a clear course, Mr. Od
dle said, was merely touched upon, and
no mention whatever had been made of
the Dunraven happenings Jn connection
with the last International contest for
the America's cup. Prompt action will
be taken when the formal challenge ar
