Columbus. o., June 9.-Thursday was
the big day of the American Medical

centered largely in the presence of Sur
geon General Sternberg, of the United
States army. Gen. Sternberg was ac-
corded the closest attention and he was
warmly applauded. The subject of his
address was Sanitary Lesson of the
War" He said in part:
ut is well known to sanitarians and mill
tary surgeons that as general rule more
soldiers succumb to disease than are killed
by the bullets Of the enemy. and our recent
war has not been an exception in this re-
gard. The total number Of deaths reported
in our enlarged army. including regulars
and volunteers. from May /. 1898. to April 30.
1899. is 6.l0s. OF these 5.43s died Of disease.
injuries. or accident. During the civil war
the number of deaths from disease was
1926. The number who were killed in bat
tie or died of wounds was 93.969. or about
one-half Of the deaths from disease. The
total deaths from disease in the union
armies from the commencement of the war
to the 3lst of December. 1862. was 1896. and
in the confederate armies during the same
period, $685.

defeated Robert Fitzsimmons, worlds
champion in two classes middle
weight and heavy weight-in II rounds
OF whirlwind fighting. He came to the
ring rank outsider. and left it the ac-
knowledged master of the man he de-
feated. He was never at any time in
serious danger, and after the size-up in
the early rounds of the contest took
the lead. He had the Australian
whipped from the ninth round. 1t was
acknowledged that Jeffries would have
an immense advantage in weight.
height and age, but the thousands who,
tipped and backed his opponent to win
were sure that he was slow, and that
he would, in that respect, be absolutely
at the mercy of the past master at the
science of fighting that he was to meet.
He proved. on the contrary, that he was
just as fast as the man he met, and
