SKELETON REGIMENTS

Will be First Raised for Service in
the Philippines. vi
WASHINGTON. June 29.-The first
volunteers to be raised for, service in
the Philippines will be those for the
skeleton regiments now being formed
by General Otis. 1t Is not believed there
will be the least difficulty in obtaining
these men. It IS probable that some
time will elapse before the troops Of
the provisional army are sent to Manila,
but meanwhile they will be drilled and
taught craftsmanship in camp. It IS
estimated that three months are re-
quired to make soldiers of new recruits.
The officers of the war department
think that a number of volunteers now
coming home will desire to return to
the Philippines for short service after
they have had an opportunity to see
home and friends. These men are re-
Earded as the most desirable for the
regiments being organized by General
Otis.
1t Is learned ut the war department
that there Is no actual rush to get the
new organizations to General Otis at
the present time. The rainy season hav-
ing set in 1t Is not believed that these
troops Will be necessary for service, en-
cept to relieve those who have been on
active duty.
The transport service is said to be
sufficient. though ships may be char
tered temporarily II needed.
The announcement that q proportion
OF the provisional army was to be raised
has caused swarm OF applications to
be sent TO the war department by those
who are seeking commissions in the new
regiments

BUFFALO, June 29.-The national.

Surgeon Boyd Thinks the Results

WASHINGTON. June 29.-surgeon j..
C. Boyd. of the navy. one OF the United
States delegates to the recent tubercu-
losls congress In Berlin, has returned
to Washington, and Is preparing re-
port for the department on the work Of
the congress. DR.. Boyd thinks the re-
suits OF The congress Will be important.
The chief question now interesting the
profession Is the PREPARATION of an effec-
tive serum TO combat the disease. The
most promising work in this connection
Is that of DR.. Dehring, one OF the most
prominent OF the European specialists.
The results obtained by DR.. Behrlng
have attracted the attention Of the
medical world, and are being pushed
us rapidly as Is consistent with careful
scientific work. The profession sees no
reason why the development Of u tuber.
cuiosis serum should not revoiutionize
the mortality rate In consumption as
much as hns the development OF the
antl-toxin Of diphtheria. The devel-
opment OF consumptive sanitariums In
Europe Is another matter that has Mt.
tracted much Interest among the pro.
fcssion on this side Of the Atlantic.
1t is now assured that the disease in
Its earliest stages can be checked. With
the building OF the patients general
condition he Is less liable to a recur-
renee OF the disease after leaving the
institution, even II the lung tissue al
ready destroyed cannot be replaced.
Even In advanced stages the disease
can be SO checked that an Individual
may, with Il good climate and care live
out his allotted space with only frac-
ton OF the lung area possessed by q
normal subject.
Preparations are now being made for
the establishment of consumptive
ranch in the high and dry region OF the
southwest for the benefit OF the mer-
chant marine. There Is a large per
cent of consumptives In this service,
though there Is but little trouble with
1t In the navy, the physical examIna-
tlon there wedding out practically all
the suspicious cases before they enter
the service. The chief objection to the
location now planned for the marine
sanftarfum IS the long distance inland,
making the transportation OF invalids
difficult and expensive. Good results
are expected, however, from the new
venture.
