The Worcester spy. [volume] (Worcester, Mass.) 1898-1904, 1899-07-08

The ten new regiments now to be
raised are to be sent to the Philippines
as soon as they are organized. Some
of them should arrive before the rainy
season is over in October, but for all
that the immediate prospect before
them is not so very alarming. The
worst period Of hot weather is past,
and from now on gradual fall OF tenn
perature is to be expected. Further
more, whether the reason be in the bet
ter care taken of the troops and the
superior camp arrangements, or wheth-
er the Philippine climate itself be less
dangerous than that Of Cuba, the
health of Gen. Otis army has been re-
markably good. Only for brief period
if at all has the percentage of sick
exceeded II, and that will have to be
accepted as an excellent record for an
active campaign in the tropics. The
hospital returns show gratifying abb
sence of malaria, which was one Of The
greatest terrors of the campaign in
Cuba

FIRE EGGS AND KER0sENE.

The most interesting portion of the
state fire marshaps fifth annual renort
is that which relates to incendiarism
1t appears that there were twentv-six
incendiary fires in Boston, twelve of
which were set for the purpose Of oh
tanning the insurance, yet the percent
age Of incendiarism has been reduced
to ~, and the number of convictions
has been largely increased. For the
whole state, as 1t appears, there have
been rs arrests for this cause. with IN
convictions, and Is prisoners AWAITING
trial, and the promise is that norn
than 70 per cent of the arrested parties
will be convicted before the end of the
year. There has also been a marl,ad
reduction in the number Of fires Of IN
cendiary or unknown origin throughout
the state. The former average mar
centage was SO; it is bow 151b WITH q
prospect that it may be reduced IA tho
normal figure of or 10.
Another point of which the Are NAV
shall makes much is the number of fres
that have been caused by Kerosene
lamps, There have been $50 Of this
sort, involving eleven deaths and 81
serious injuries. Glass lamps and oil
below the legal standard are supposed
to be largely responsible for these dis
astefs, and the fire marshal asks for
the abolition of the one and the reform,
