HEALTH MEASURES.
Protection of Our Troops from Yell
Iow-Fever--Im munes TO the Front.

| WASHINGTON, July 16.-Pendlng the
| settlement of the details Of the capitu-
| lation at Santiago, the War Department
| officials are giving the major portion Of
their attention to the adoption of strict
measures for the protection of our troops
from yellow-fever and from low tropical
fevers. The department has decided 10
remove the troops al Santiago at the
earliest possible moment. TO the country
in the rear. Adjutant-General Corbin said
to-day that within FIVE miles OF Santiago
proper the conditions were as nearly
ideal as any ob.ainabIe In the tropics for
stamping out the fever. High hins en-
sured well-drained camps, most i'm
portant element in the preservation OF
health. The water supply. coming from
the mountains, was pure and abundant,
and fresh sea breeZes prevailed
While the main body OF the troops is
to be transferred back TO these hills until
they are needed for service elsewhere.
or are returned TO the United states.
some troops necessarily will be placed
either in the town itself or in camps
commanding the place, in order to protect
the inhabitants.
NOW FOR THE IMAIUNES,
1t is believed that the two regiments
of immunes already on their way to
Santiago will be assigned to that duty.
This will be a severe test Of the principle
involved In the formation OF the immune
regiments. for IL is suspected that many
Of the alleged immunes are merely per-
sons who have spent only a few weeks
i'm the tropics under conditions that never
brought them into direct exposure to yell
low-feyer.
II is the present intention OF the au-
thorties here to maintain military gov
eminent az Santiago. regardless OF hints
from Cuban sources that they are pre-
pared 10 undertake the administration
there. II is believed that the United |
States are under moral obligation to the |
world TO see 10 1t that nothing but a |
highly-civliZed government shall be set |
up in Cuba. Wherefore, the authorities /
here are disposed 10 be extremely eau |
tious. and 10 make full test Of the capa-
city OF the Cubans, before entrusting the |
lives and property Of the people Of SAN
tiago 10 their care.
