"lrItlMONT , May 8.-To the Editor of
The lice : Owing to the many conflicting reports -
ports Iii regard to the inanegoment an4 con.
diLlon of the oIdIer' home at Miifortl I do-
cEded to make a thorough examination of the
conditloti of affairs there znycif cud find
out just how things wore. I started upon
by three days' Inve.tgatIon with a ireiudico ,
nga'r. it Captain Culver , anti with the cx-
poctatloti of finding a good many things
that shiotid ! ho remedied , but wtts agreeably
surprised at what I saw , Iii'ard , and found
there. I had evury opportunity to look Into
the condition asiti , nanageinint of the home.
None of the inmates or ofilcers know that
I was coming , nor my object In visits the
home and staying there a day ani a bait
untIl I was nearly through with my Ijivesti-
gatlons.
"The building Is a nubstantlal three-story
brick , with baioment , and attic , erected iiliio
years ago at a cost of 23OOO by a local
compatiy. Lieforo it was completed a Ican
of $9OO was Placed on It , which was foreclosed -
closed three years ago and the property
nw belongs to l. S. Jo1in-jn of Milford , C.
S. Smith of Lincoln niul II. J. Valsh of
Linco'n. ' On the first Iloor of the building
to the south of tlio hail is the oillco of the
commandant and the reception room. The
ofilco is suitably furni'hed. Ii. the roceptki
room Is a flrussels carp't , piano , line up.
Zolstcred furniture and center table.
IN TIhl I1OSNTAL.
"Across this hall from the olilco am 'two
rooms u'ied as a hio3pital. There arc iiow
three Inmates , In tue hlrst one is Frank Jor-
dam , the man Mr. Moseby says was so badly
treated. lie he an imbecile , brought to that
COfldltiOfl by his owa vhciou habits , the
frame of an old soldier with the hrc.ath only ,
and a terrible care on all assistants. rcqiiriiig

was clean and in good condition , and there
% 'as no offensive smell about It , lie Is per-
factiy lielpias and in i.uch condition that
{ his clothing and bedding have to be chihnged
L3VerAl throes a day. I am i'ati.ifled ho is as
well cared for as a man can be under the
circumstances. Andrew linlistroni , tlio old
Swede opokon of by Moseby , hia a cot in
another room connecting with this by folding
doors. Be is 85 years old , has but one log ,
Is in his second childhood and not requiring
a hundredth part of the care that Jordain
does , lie has a cork leg and crutches , but
. won't use them. Instead he Insists on heip-
lag himself and creeps on his hands and
kneou. lIe dresses hihinsi'lf and is neat about
his personal apPearance. The hospital is not
connected with the office , and it is itupossi-
I blo for visitors in the office or reception room
k. to see men going to and from the closet. as
n reported by Moseby. There is no physician
! _ i at the home. A Miiford physician is em-
plOyel at a salary of $20 t visit the borne
every morning , and whieneor sent for. and
jirorcribe for tire inniate. Mr. Moseby corn-
plains because Jordain is not allowed whisky ,
but the doctor says it is best not to let him
Iravo airy , and his instructions are foliowed ,
Tire other inmate of the hospital Is J. W.
Chionoy of Wahoo , a nice looking old soldier ,
but discouraged. If Ito had the courage ho
had thirty years ago ire would be a well
onan today. lie expects to die any hour with
heart dIroaso , wben Iris only trouble I in-
digestion.
"The ciosot and bath room Is in a sinali
room opening off the hail. but not connected
with thio hospital , It contains a cot , which
Is frequently occupied by Iiahlstrom on Iris
J3urrleys to and ( rain thu hospitai. The inmates -
mates say that Ilalistrom was abused by
Moseby , and that they have frequently sec.n
