SURGICAL WORK AT MANILA.
Colonel LippincOtt's Report of At.
tentiOns 10 Wounded Soldiers

e.
tentiOns TO Wounded Soldiers.
Surgeon General Sternberg has made
public a report from Colonel Lippincott.
Chief Surgeon OF General Otis depart
ment at Manila, on the operations of the
Surgical Corps during the recent hard
fighting of February 4 and 3. In conse-
quence of the excellent preparations which
had been made. the wounded received in
stant attention on the field. In the night
attack full supply of first aid packages.
litters, lanterns. water beef extract dress
ings, and stimulants were at hand and
the ambuances re-enforced by carriages
and carromates.
The hospitals were also in readiness.
Crosby's being used for all severe cases
and Keefer's for minor wounds The men
Of the hospital corps were properly equip
ped and every man understood the part
he was expected to take days before the
attack. and there was the greatest en-
thusiasm among the men in performing
the duties assigned TO them. At the date
of the report. February rs, the wounded
were all doing well with encouraging pros
poets for the ultimate recovery OF every
case.
Colonel Lippincott says: 1T is matter
Of congratulation that first aid instruction
had been given for some time systematic
teaching having been Instituted In the
regiments SO that the hospital corps men
were quite skilled in their first aid work.
The distance the men had to- be taken be-
fore their arrival at the first reserve
hospital WIS from two to six miles. and
this distance was covered quickly, though
with every due consideration for the
wounded. The Government ambulances
worked WELL but We should have more of
them. Only eight are available. How
ever. with the other carriages We man
aged very well. Some Of the wounded were
taken on box cars from Caloocan properly
furnished with cots, blankets, pillows. etc,
and on arrival at the depot in Manila they
were carried in ambulances to the hospital.
Many of the lighter cases have returned
to duty and others will soon do so. Thus
far there have been no primary amputa-
ticns excepting few fingers.

series of tactical maneuvers, to be out
lined by the Naval War College at New
port. This decision of the department is
due to the efforts Of Commander Charles
H. Stockton, President Of the War Col
lege, to revive the course of instruction
there. He recently asked the Navy De-
partment to establish a class of officers
at the college during the coming sum-
mer. In the opinion OF the department
this request could not be complied with
without material injury to the service. The
department, however, told Commander
Stockton that his desires might be met
by ordering to Newport the vessels of the
squadron of evolution for the execution Of
tactical problems prepared at the college.
This suggestion has not met with the ap-
proval of Commander Stockton. In let
ter to the Navy Department he says that
he does not think that the ends desired
will be met by this means, and reverts to
his original Recommendation for the as
signment of a regular class of naval Of
icers to take up the college course dur
ing the summer months.
It is evident the Navy Department, de-
spite Commander Stockton's objections,
assigning the squadron Of evolution in con-
nection with the war college work. The
plans Of the department contemplate order
ing the squadron to Narragansett Bay as
soon as possible after its return to New
York from the West Indies. A problem in
naval strategy will then be presented to
Admiral Sampson and the commanders OF
his vessels and the squadron will proceed
to sea to work 1t out. Then, according to
the IDEAS Of the department, Admiral
sampson will bring his ships back to New
port where the officers viii be ashore to
listen to lectures and TO participate In dis
cushions pertinent to the problem which
bad been executed BY the squadron; This
plan. will BE- repeated at frequent Intervals
during the greater part Of the summer sea-
son.

Mine Workers. President Before the

John Mitchell, of Indianapolis, the presi-

citation of America, was witness before
the Industrial Commission this morning.
In his testimony regarding the injunc-
tion ss 1t is used in time Of strikes, he said
that In his opinion ''it was most effective
weapon to intimidate labor" He said that
the miners regarded its application as an
infringement upon the common rights OF
an American citizen. STRIKERS are, under
the operation OF the injunction. often re-
strained from assembling at meetings held
for the purpose of discussing their interests
and from walking along highways when no
violence is contemplated or intended. !" said
the witness, land the miners do not see
why they should be instructed by the court
TO obey the laws when they do not con-
template breaking them any more than any
other class of men,"

was yesterday. There was no particular
reason for the change except that prices
were low and had had no advance Of mo-

not considered impossible, Of course. that
when the morning buying was over an
other reaction might set in. The monthly
crop report was relatively poor, and al
though 1t had no effect whatever on the
