tons have been number Of commits.

slight physical defects The discomfort,
ed and dissatisfied argue thus. Prosi.
dent Mckinley issued his call for yolun.
teers, more than 1000 Texans responded
to that call, many Of these quit their
business and threw up'gOod paying posi-.
tons and left home, family aud friends
to volunteer and fight and to say that a
man cannot make a good fighter because
he has a decayed tooth or two, a few
oorns on his feet, and so on, seems
TO them, 50 they say, quite
silly to put 1t mildly. They are
hus hero 70 becone regular soldiers, but
as volunteers to fight, and they protest
against the hard examination now being
conducted by the medical board.
II Is estimated that fully "a Der cent
will be rejected. This will require
about 800 more TO complete the number
called from Texas.
Governor Culberson denies that he
sent 10 the war department protesting
against the rigidiiy OF the examination
