The army and navy lost only 27s
lives in actual battle during the war
with Spain. But upwards of 1.5OO
have died in hospitals and camps
from disease brought on by climatic
conditions. starvation and neglect.
The death rate of Camp Thomas ex-
ceeds 30 per cent. Inasmuch as the
men are in the hey-day of life and
passed rigid surgical examination
before entering the service, the death
rate under ordinary conditions ought
not to exceed or per cent. There
have been a thousand unnecessary

TO EXAMINE ARMY GUNS
Maj. Blunt Made Member of Board
by Gen Flagler.

by Gen FIsgIer.
A special from Washington in to-
days Chicago Tribune contains the
following information. which win be
received with much pleasure by the
friends of Rock Island arsenal's popu-
lar commandant:
Gen. Flagler, chief of ordnance,
has appointed board OF ordnance
officers to examine into the efficiency
of modern army guns as shown by the
war. The board, consisting of Mas.
Blunt and Taylor and Capt. Burr,
win hold its sessions at Montauk
Point and viii call for expert opinions
from various regular army officers
who served at Santiago. 1t is the
especial object of this board to de-
termine the relative merits of the
Springfield 45-caliber rifle used by the
volunteers and the 32-caliber Krag-
Jorgensen in use by the regular army
They will also carefully inquire into
the efficiency of the Mauser rifle used
by the Spanish, and the field and seige
guns with which Gen. Shafter bonn
barded Santiago 1t is said by ord
nance officers who were at Santiago
that remarkably fine work was done
by the small field mortars. At dis
tance of three miles four out of five
shells could be dropped into a space
four yards square.
Mai. Blunt is the author of several
works relating to the use and manu-
facture of army guns, and his ideas
and opinions are greatly valued by
the government, and his appointment
on such an important commission
bears further evidence of the fact.
