Outside of the Rougn Riders there are no i volunteer regiments In camp, all having been sent to their homes on furloughs, at the expiration! of which they will bo mus tered out. Orders will be issued during the week assigning each regiment of regular troops now at the camp to regular army stations in various parts of the country, and the war department welcomes the ! prospect that within a few days the con troversy regarding the sanitary condition of Camp Wikoff will have been disposed of in the most effective way. The depart ment insists, however, that the abandon ment of tlie camp at Montauk Point Is not to be made on account of amy opinion that tho place is unsanitary, for all of the ofll clals, from the secretary down, insist that the camp is healthfc.i, ami that the severe criticisms of the administration for all mismanagement of the camp are utterly unfounded. But as to this much, more has yet to be said. The parting of the troops, officers and men alike, has been pathetic. With the ordering out of one. regiment would come a swarm to nay goodby -a man who had borrowed another’s canteen and wanted to thank him for it: a man who had been c.ir -1 fled wounded down San Juan hill, end wanted to find the carrier; a man who (had borro.ved a cartridge b It from a fellow soldier unable to carry it longer, and who i wanted to return it—all these men and I many more banked about the depot when ‘ a. .
