Lieutenant Williams and more than
thirty men were left in the mountains
in similar condition. A relief ex-
pedition reached the marines on Jan.

all his companions with the exception
of ten men, who were not found and
who undoubtedly died from starvation.
Captain Porter, Lieutenant Williams
and eighteen men were taken to the

HEALTH OF TROOPS.
Death Rate in the Philippines
Shows Marked Decrease.

BY Exclusive Wire from the Associated Press.
Washington March G. Surgeon
General Sternberg today received the
health report of the military division
of the Philippines for the month which
ended Jan. 10 last. The percentage
of sick was G.16 and the total sick
2,534 cases. There We're 80 deaths in
the month, a decrease Of is compared
with the previous month.
Colonel Pope, who made the report
just before his death, says the small
percentage of the sick and the few
deaths are especially gratifying, in
view of active military operations of
the most arduous character in Samar
and Batangas. The situation in re-
gard to bubonic plague is much more
favorable than at the time of the last
report. Only three cases of the dis
case occurred during the month, one
