OCR Text	Show Over Five Hundred Troops Dead. Chattanooga, Tenn., Aug. 27. It is announced that it will be practically impossible to maintain the Third army corps at Huntsville, where it has been ordered to proceed from Chicamauga. The indications are that the corps will be sent in its entirety to Anniston, Ala., a place said to be adapted for camping a large body of troops. The reason for the change is scarcity of water at Huntsville. The statements that 600 men have died during the last 48 hours is not true, the number being 500.
