FEVER SITUATION
 IS IMPROVING

Washington, July 1.-The war depart ment officials are greatly encouraged by the reports on the yellow fever situation from the army at the front. They were fearful lest the statistics from there might show increasing cases. but were gratified today when telegram came from Surgeon Greenleaf, saving that during the past twenty-four hours there had been only twenty-three new cases. This was in marked contrast with the reports of the previous twenty-four hours which showed much greater spread and coupled with Surgeon Greenleaf's statement that the general character of the disease is mild, lead officials to hope that it's ravages will be limitetd and that the disease will be kept well in bounds. Surgeon Greenleaf's s dispatch is as follows:
 Siboney, July 17-Only twenty-three new cases of yellow fever and three deaths re- ported in tn last twenty-four hours. Gen eral type of the disease mild. Camp site moved whenever practicable Have taken vigorous sanitary precautions to check the spread of the disease.
