The Disease minateiy Desoribed-How
Long tho Patient May 1.-Two.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Mach 10.-The
Philadelphia Medical &e,es Of this week
will say editorially concerning the
disease from which General Grant is suf-
fering: aLinguai epitheiioma, as rule,
rapidly progresses towards a fatal termi-
nation. When left 10 itself the life OF the
patient from the first appearance Of the
disease, varies in accordance with tho esti.
mates OF different obseryerszfrom ten to
thirteen months, the average being eleven
TO seven months.
2 Death ensues, first, from q generaliza-
tion Of the disease. Secondly, from septic
pneumonia from the inhalation Of putrid
emanat;on which results from the decom-
position produced by the liberated sur.
face. Thirdly, from starvation through the
pressure Of the injected lympathetic
glands, and surrounding parts under the
esophagus, thereby interfering with the
degIus!on; and lastly, from hemorrhage
proceeding from the liberated lingual
arteries or vessels OF the neck The dura-
ton OF the life Of those who survive the
operation averages nineteen months. Not
only does operative interference prolong
life and relieve suffering, but 1t effects a
final cure in IA percent of all cases.
In attaining these results II must, how.
euer, be remembered that the incision Of
the tongue is attended with mortality Of
% percent, the principal dangers being the
shock, hemorrhage, Gdema OF the CLOTHS,
septic lung affections, spmmia, and cry
sipelas, some Of which risks can be avoid
ed by taking careful precautions during
the operation aud by perfecting antiseptic
measures during and after procedure.
T When, in addition to the disease, the
tongue itself, palate and tonsil are in
volved, the prognosis Is far more grave,
whether the disease will be permitted to
pursue an unaided course, or whether It
win be subjected to the knife. In the
latter even not only will the tongue have
to be extirpated but the disease OF the pal.
ate and tonsil will have 10 be reached. So
iar as we can learn there is no example Of
tho performance Of q double operation on
record, and II Is, in our opinion, not iusti-

THE LAST CONSULTATION


OF Grants Physicians-They Decide Not 10
Use the knife. II =
New YoRK, March 19.-The following
will appear inthe Medical Record OF March
2lst: During the past week the local
disease Of General Grant has shown no
naked tendency toward progressive ulcera-
ton. At the recent weekly consultation
Or. Fordyce Barker was unayoidably
absent. Doctors ]. II. Douglas, Henry B.
Sands and George +. Shrady, who were
present, made a thorough examination OF
the Generals throat with 8 view Of dis
cussing the expediency Of % radical sur.
gical operation for the removal OF the
growth. Such measure would involve q
division OF the lever Jaw In tho median
line, the extirpation Of the entire tongue
aud the greatest part Of the soft palate,
together with the removal OF the liberated
and intiltered fauces and indurated CLAM
dular structures under the right angle OF
the lower jaw. iA
inns was considered mechanically pos
sible, despite the close proximity and
probable involvement Of the tissues join
ing the large arteries and veins in the
neiehborhood OF the ulcerations, but in the
best interests OF the distinguished patient
tho surgeons did notfeel inclined to recon-.
mend the procedure. Even by such means
there could be no guarantee In view Of the
extensiyesurrounding OF infilteration that
the limits Of disease could be reached
without immediate risk OF a severe shock,
to his constitution, already much en-.
feebled. Low vital power Is suclra strong
elementin the disease that for the present,
at least, no kind Of operation will be un.
dertaken.
The liberation on the side Of the tongue
has not progressed far enough to produce
the usual intolerable pain associated with
that condition, but should the latter
symptoms appear 1t may be deemed adj
visableto divide the gustatory nerve. The
general tone Of the patients system re-
mains about the same as at the last re-
port, Notwithstanding he has suffered
mucilfrom insomnia. The latter within
the last day or two has been kept under
control by suitable anodynes. There is
no pain In swallowing, and sufficient food
Is taken with reasonable relish.

THE ARMY MOVES
FROM suAKlM BUT Is STOPPED


SuAKnt, March 19.-General Graham
inspected all the troops this morning ex.
cept the Shropshire, Berkshire and Hurry
regiments. Five hundred Of the enemy
were seen in the hills near Hasheen. The
cavalry, mounted infantry and Indian in.
fantry were sent to reconnoitre willie the
guards acted as reserve. The enemy re-
treated before the British advance. The
head OF the British column was now close
to Hasheen.
The mounted infantry and scouts, sup.
ported by the main body OF troops, march,
ing GOO yards behind, advanced to the
base OF the hills. near Hasheen. The
scouts on reaching the summit Of the hills
discovered the Arabs massed in the val
ley. The Arabs at once retired to shelter,
but fifty remaining In sight. When the
British advance reached the ridge OF the
hills the Hadendowah tribe rushed from
ambush and made an attack. During
this Captain Birch was speared through
the shoulder. The Arabs got to
within ten yards OF the British line before
the latter opened regular fire, which the
enemy promptly replied to. Four inian-
try men were Killed and three wounded.
Several Hadendowahs were wounded.
Among the killed was Lieutenant +. Con-
nor, whose horse was shot from under
him. The British retired, the Arabs
showing no disposition to follow. During
the engagement on the ridge the Bengal
Cavalry took many prisoners. 1twas as
certained by reconnaissance that the Arabs
are in large bodies along the entire range
Of hills.
AS the British retired from Hasheen the
rebels reoccupied it. The Mahdi's adher-
ents declare that before the summer Is far
advanced General Wolseley's army will be
cut of from, Cairo.
After the skirmish, General Graham's
right, consisting Of British infantry, In
dian infantry and the Guards began the
advance toward Handoub. The mounted
infantry and Bengal cavalry renewing the
reconnaissance, occupied Hasheen and
found 0sman Digna withdrawing his
forces toward Tamai. The concentration
OF the Arabs was effected in unusually
good order.
Scouts report that osman Digma is pre-
pared togive battle between Tamai and Ia
