WASHII'GTON , Aug. 9-The foliowing reply was today Issued by Surgeon General Sternberg in defense of the medical department - mont of the army , referring to the telegram of Major General Shatter : When the regular fr ops were ordered into the field commanding ofileers at rogi- meats vere directed to take with them a complete field outfit and medical supplies for three months. I enclose herewith a memorandum showing medical supplies which have been sent to the Fifth army corps at Tampa and at Santiago. The only requisition for medical supplies received from the chief surgeon of the Fifth arr.iy corps at Santiago is one datcd July 23 , by cable , as follows : "July 23-Wanted urgently : Quinine tab- letB , 1,000 bottles ; strychnine tablets , 100 bottles ; caiomel and soda tablets , 100 bot- tIcs ; calomel , 200 grammes ; nitric atid in two-ounce vials , 100 test tubes , 1,000 ; FOw- lee's solution , 1,000. HAVARD , "Major , Surgeon , U. S. A. , Acting Chiet Sur- geon. " The supplies asked for were sent by the Olivotte , In addition to a large quOntity of medical supplies of various kinds which I had ordered to he put on board that ship and delivered at Santiago-seo ( memorandum - dum attached ) . I beg.leave to state that recent advices indicate - dicato that a majority of the cases of fever now occurring among the troops at Santiago are malarial in character and tint there has been an ample supply of quinine. which is ho principal remedy required in this form of fever. I have made every ollort to anticipate the wants of our sick and wounded soldiers in Cuba without waiting for requirements ; hut as we have communi. cation by cable , the fault does not rest with me if , owing to the failure on the part of the chief surgeon with General Shaftir's army to ask for necessary supplies , there has been a failure to meet the requirements of the sick. The hospital ship Relief , which arrived at Sibonoy July 8 , has on board medicines for twenty regiments for six months , and large supplies in addition of more important hospital - pital stores , dressings , etc. If these supplies - plies were inadequate there was ample time to inform me of the fact before the sailing of the Olivetto on July 26. I encloto a copy of a letter just received from Captain Edward L. Munson , assistant surgeon , U. S. A. , which fully accounts for any ( leticiency of medical supplies at San- tinge , BIG REVIEW AT CHICKAMAUGA General flrcolzinridje onil Large Nniuler of CItircsmM as Sieetntors -Pnntimsters at Work , CHICICAMAUGA PARK , Aug. 0-At 9:30 : o'clock on Snofigrass hill Geaeral Breckin- ridge rertowed limo greater part of the army encamped at Chickamauga park , The review - view was a very imposing one , over 35,000 , roan being In line.

NEW YORK , Aug. 9.-A dispatch to the herald from Pence via St. Thomas says : General Milea' invasion of the island of Porto Rico is progressing in a highly satisfactory - factory manner , Nothing has taken place to interfere with the plans finally decided upon by General Miles and the American troops are gaining advanced ground every day. This plan of having the army march upon San Juan from tour directions is regarded - garded hero as one of General Miles shrewd. est movements , lie has the Spaniards in complete doubt and has assigned a large cnogh force under cacti general to Insure successful resistance against Spanish at- lacks , At the same time by this plan Gen. oral Miles speedily will have severa1 thousand - sand Spanish troops shut up in the vicinity of Aibonito unless the enemy suddenly changes plans and hastens to San Juan over the military road. 'There will be a formid. able American force ready to advance upon the Porto Rican capital when the troops under General Henry form a Junction with those under General Scitwan at Arecibo. It Is probable that much of the artillery to be used In the niege of San Juan will be sent to Arecibo by transport and taken from there to San Juan by rail. This will be ft work easy of accomplishment and General Henry and General $ cbwan undoubtedly will be able to form a junction with the other troops as soon as they can march to time capital , No opposition is expected by the American troops in the execution of this plan. All of our men arc light-hearted and there is plenty of good food fr all , The forage for the horses is superb. ' General Miles Is giving lila personal at- tentlon to the maflagement of the details of the campaign. Ho intends to press forward to San Juan regarllcss of the peace negotia- lions , until orders come from Washington for hostilities 'to Cease. PONCE , Island of Porto Rico , Aug. 8.- ( Evonlng.-Deiayecl ) ( in Transmission- General Henry , with the Sixth Illinois and the Sixth Massachusetts , will niovo tomorrow - row by way of Adjuntas on Arecibo , which is about twenty miles north of Adjuntas , as the crow flies. A short. stretch of the road the troops will have to follow is in a very bad condition. Practically all our troops will then be in motion in four columns toward - ward the capital of this island , San Junm do Porte Rico. General Schwan is at Yauco , General Wilson is near Coamo and General Broolco is at Guayama. The l'orto Iticans enlisted by General Stone have been engaged with a small Spanish - ish outpost between Adjuntas and Utauado , On tim road to Arecibo. A skirmish took place last. night , and during the exchange of shots one Spanish ofilcer was killed. Major General Miles , with several troops of cavalry , expects to follow General hoary in a day or two. If peace is promptly do- dared General Miles will be the first to enter San Juan , going by the railroad from Arociho to the Porto Rican capital. In view of the news received here about the progress of the peace negotiations , all the American army oflicers appear to believe that there will be no more fighting. The fleet is in the harbor of Pence , and Cftptain Rodgers of the Puritan. who is in , command , expects orders at any time to proceed to San Juan do Porte Rico. General Miles will probably leave the Ad- jutantas road In a ( lay or two with a trbop of the Second cavalry , Telegraphic corn- munication has boon established between his headquarters here and all the moving columns , hut the reports show that all i quiet. General 'SVlison's headquarters are now at Delascrabado rIver , General Wilson in person has made a reconnoissanco within sight of the Spanish outposts , entrenched a mile this side of Coamo , and he estimates that the Spaniards are 400 strong at that. point.

The arrival of the third expedition filiod the Spaniards with rag and they dctcrniined to gLve battle before Camp Dewey could be reinforced. The trenches extended from the' beach 300 yards to the left flank of the in- surgenta. Sunday was the insurgent feast day , and their left flank withdrew , leaving the Amen- can right flank exposed. Companies A and E of the Tenth Pennsylvania and the Utah battery worn ordered to reinforce the right flank. In the midst of a raging typhoon and a trcthcndoua downpour of rain the enemy's force , estimated at 3,000 men , attempted to surprise the camp. Our pickets were driven in and the trenches assaulted. The brave Pennsylvania men never flinched , hut stood their ground under' a withering fire. The alarm spread and the First California regiment , with two coin- panics of the Third artillery , who fight with rubs , were sent to reinforce the Pennsyl- vantans. The enemy were on top of the trenches when these reinforcements arrived and never was the discipline of the regulars better demonstrated than by tim worlc of , the Third artillery under Captain O'Hara. Nothing could bp neon but flashes of the rifles. Men ran right up to the attacking SpaniardB and rnbwed them down with regular volleys. The Utah battery , under Captain Young , covered itself with glory. The men pulled their guns through mud axle deep , Two gumis were sent around in flank and poured in a. destructive enfilading fire.The enemy was repulsed and retreated in disorder. Our infantry exhausted its amunition and did not follow the enemy. Not an inch of ground was , lnst , hut the ecano in the trenches was never to he for- gotten. During flashes of lighting. the dead and wounded could be seen lying in blood red water , but neither the elements of heaven nor the destructive power of man could wring a cry of protest from the wounded , They encouraged their comrades to fight and handed over their cartridge belts. During the night the Spanish outposts wore seen carrying oft the dead and wounded of the enemy , 'The American 'dead were buried next day in the Convent of Maracaban. On the night of August 1 the fighting was renewed , but the enemy had been taught a lesson and made the attack at long range with heavy artillery. The Utah battery replied - plied and the artillery duel lasted an hour. One man was killed , Ho was Fred Pning- sled , First Colorado , and two men were wounded. On the night of August 2 the artillery duel was renewed. 'Two men vere badly wounded and are this morning reported dead , which brings the total dead to thirteen - teen , with ten In the hospital mortally hurt. General Greene issued this address to the troops : The brigadier general commanding desires to thank the troops engaged last. night for gallantry and skill displayed by thorn in repelling such a vigorous attack by largely superior forces of Spaniards. Not an inch of ground was yielded by the Tenth Pennsylvania - vania and Utah artillery stationed in the trenches. - A battalion of the Third artillery and First regiment of California Infantry moved forward - ward to their support through a galling fire with the utmost intrepidity. The courage and steadiness shown by all in the engage- nient is worthy of the highest conimenda- tion.

NEW YORK , Aug. 9.-Congressrnaa J. P. Doiliver of Iowa in the course of a lecture at Ocean Grove , N , J , , said : We have gained in our war with Spain lnflpitely more than we have lost and time unerring Instinct of the people at lnrge , whose sovereign PurPoses overruled the judgment of the' statesmen' from the initial stages of time conflict , has glvemm us a ima tional prestige at home and abroad-to ourselves - selves a new basis of self-respect , to time pationa of Europe a new and healthful insight - sight into our resources and power. Time world viii be slow to make a quarrel with a community that cau raise $200,000,000 without the aid of a syndicate at honmd or abroad within two 'ceks by a popular loan. The cabinets of tue old world will hold a long session before allowing themselves to be drawn into collision with a nation which , in flvo years , will have at its disposal - posal a steel fleet of which the Brooklyn and Oregon are only the types and forerumi. nerd. The nr has Perfected our strength at home by the total obliterating of time lines of sectional prejudice marked upon our limp by the great struggles of tIme last gen- eratlon. General .loe Wheeler , in the thick of the fight at Spnttago , stands for the larger patriotism north and south , which turned its back upon the past and opened its vision to the sublime destimmy of a reunited - united people , The same influences that Imave restored the pOrtect union of our country have brought back also the harmony to which broad- mnimided men of both countries have long hooked forward in the relations of the English speaking world. At the outbreak of the Spanish war the restless diplomacy of Europe was circumvented by the prompt notice of the English government that any constraint placed by time powers upon the government of tIme United States would have to count upon the disapproval and active hostilities of time government nad people of Dngiaod , and thus , by a simple act of nit- tional fellowship , the worn and threadbare prejudices of a century yield in both countries - tries to a recognition of the common cause which the English race scattered throughout tim earth Is now to make for liberty and civilization. I'robiomns to fle Solved. The peace which is now at hand imposes upon our government problems vastly more difficult than the prosecution of the war. It puts the destinies of the Spanish \Vest Indies at once in our hands. It gives us Porto Itico-time government of which 'will probabiy be an easy task-and requires us to establish a stable and orderly govern- nient in Cuba agreeable to the people of the island , We have already raised the flag of the United States over the Hawaiian islands , now farnillam' with republican institutions , Admiral Dewey , in the harbor of Manila , by the most notable exploit iii the history of the navy , lisa brought us face to face with the problem of the Philippines. Two things the American people are already agreed upon. The first is that we ought not to desert our insurgent allies in the hour of our victory and leave them to the tender mercies of an unrestrained Spanish despotism , and the second is that the ques- tiomi is strictly an American one and that we must not be constrained by the interference - terferenco of any foreign power whatsoever. It may be counted as certain that tim flag of the United States is in the Philippines to .stay and that whether our government assumes - sumes sovereignty over the vholo group or riot , will secure a commercial station there as will enable us to administer to the needs of our own commerce and become the agents and guardians of the peace and liberty of the islands. From the beginning to the end of the var .11. is evident. to the devout student of history that our people in a strange way have been subject to the guidance of powers wiser thai. any human foresight and that we have come to our present situation in the providence of God. Without our knowing It , or intending it , we have been caught in time current-in what our fathers used to call ' 1110 course of human events. Up to this hour we have discharged every duty with heroism anti self-sacrifice that has taken no thought for ourselves. It cannot be doubted that the president of the United States , secure in the confidence ofall the people , without regard to politics , will go forwarl in the discharge of every duty which arises out of our new relations to the civilization of the world ; and behind him wilt stand the united millions of our people ready for duty , as old Bismarck once said : "In the fear of God and nothing else.

Scott , who Is hone with his son , Laurence Irving Scott , a Cornell student , and accompanied by his physician , Dr. George Chmisnmore , was seen at the Kaiserhoff by a representative of the Associated I'rcss and expressed himself - self fully as to his trip to Russia , undertaken - taken in behalf of the Union Iron 'orks of San Francisco , whose vice presIdent and manager lie is. Mr. Scott , who is the builder of the bat- tieship Oregon , of Admiral Dewey's flag ship the Olympia and of the Charleston nail who showed the reported letters of congratulation received from Admiral Dewey , Captain Chadwick of time New York nail etimers oil the splendid flmhtiog and speed qualities of hmis vessels , wont to fltis- sin , where lie stayed a month , tar several purposes. The main one was to ascertain on the spot the chances America and more particularly San Francisco will have in sup. plying the region around the mouth of the Arnoor river , including \'ladivostock and also Port Arthur , vith all sorts of river craft , deep sea going vessels , ship building material , railroad material , etc. Mr. Scott spOnt part of his tIme in St. Petersburg , and the rest at MoscOw , time I ainutifueturing center of Russia , and made a thorough investigation of the situation , lie "I fetmnd that vast and progressive region which is beginning to ho known as East litmssia , along the Pacific and for which San Francisco is time nearest point of supply , rapidly ( lovcloping , and I also found that limo Russian manufacturers are ahivo to this fact and that lttsslami : local industry is re- zuarkably itrogressivo. I was everywhere received splendidly in Russia and found no . prejudice against America or American manufacturers. But I did find a strong , tendency on the nart of the Rumsalans to manufacture their own supplies and a ' vigorous encouragement on the part of tim Ituasian government to aid in this respect. However , Americans will have as good a chance as anybody in supplying Russia with those manufactures and supplies which they cannot aumply themselves as vehi or as cheaply. Itussia will build its o'n ships , Os far as they can , and will purchase , be- 51(108 , vessels ready made from other na- tloims , It has five large var vessels now building in St. Petersburg. There will be , though , a chance for American manufac- turera to supply certain articles , " About the contracts concluded and prepared - pared by himself as the representative of limo Union iron works Mr. Scott refused to speak. "As for American ships , " he itclfied , "I can say that in their performance they now stan(1 ( at. time very front and the capacity of the United States for building ships ranks second. Time war ship of the near future , so far as evolutions go , will be a battleship of crtmiser speed , fully protected , with h'.avy guns and large coal capacity , and also heavily arniozed. All these featurea corn- 1'aed are posiblo in a war ship and they will be combIned better than heretofore. " Mr. Scott will speed only a few days more in Germany and then go for a brief bust- ness engagement to England , whence he will sail for New York.
