THE mushroom wound caused by
the Mauser bullet used by the Span
ish troops in Cuba. is SO called because
of the condition of the wound after
the bullet has done its work. Upon
impact, the lead bullet hattens out
over the brass cone, resembling the
formation OF the mushroom. At the
point of impact the wound is usually
of a normal size, but with each succeed
ing movement of the spread" bullet
the flesh is torn and lacerated. At the
end of the channel through which the
bullet has passed the wound is some
times four times rs large as at the
point of impact.
