Fillmore, March 21.-The first Repub-

were Marshal Glen Miller and H. S.
Tanner. The old meeting house was
crowded, but fully one-half were Demo-
Gratis. Mr.. Miller occupied a full hour
in an effort to tear down Democrafi,

spoke Of the Hon William H. King.

Just then there was a Kissing noise and

Mr.. Tanner followed in the same Iinas
as the first speaker and worried the
people for another hour. All in all. il
was rather chilly reception throug,A

War Department Denies Reports Sent
Out as Exaggerated-Many Sur
geons Being Sent From the Unit
ed States TO Manila to Take Place
of These Coming Home.

Washington, March 21.-War depart
ment officials deny recently published
statements that General Otis campaign
is costing upwards Of 1000 men every
month. According 70 the official rec
ords since the American occupation,
June /, 1898, to Feb. II, 1900, the actual
mortality in the army in the Philip
pines was sixty-five officers and 1,46O
men. a total of 1,525. or at the rate of
seventy four deaths q month.
More details are contained in the re-
port Of Colonel Woodruff, chief sur
geon. His report, however, does not
extent beyond the end of the last cal
endar year. 1t shows that up to Dec.
/, 1899, tle total number of deaths were
1iftT-eight officers and 1 ,263 men, Of
this number forty-two officers and $40
men died by violence, and sixteen Of
ficerS and 500 men died of disease. Most
of the deaths by violence occurred in
battle. There were, however, 1877
deaths from violence outside OF actual
hostAlities. It is a singular fact that
more than one-half Of the latter class
were caused by drowning The total
number of wounded without fatal re-
suits during the period covered by the
report was 1,767.
Surgeons Going to Manila.
Surgeon General Sternberg says that
many Of the alarming statements Of
disease and death IN the Philippines
seem to be based on the fact that large
details of contract surgeons are being
forwarded to the Philippines. The fact
of the matter is there Is no particular
increase OF the number Of medical Of
ficers in the Philippine. The contract
surgeons now being sent there are
simply to take the places of others
whose contracts have expired, and who
are entitled to come home.
he admitted that twenty-four officers
of the medical department were on the
transport which sailed from San Fran
cisco few days ago. but explained
that they had been gathering at San
Francisco for several weeks, awaiting
transportation under orders issued in
the usual routines.
