HEALTH OF ARMY
Surgeon General O'Reilly Submits
His Annual Report, Showing an
Increased Death Rate.
The Report Attributes Certain Prev.
alent Diseases to the Abolish
Il ment of the Canteen.

Washington, Oct. An increase in
the death rate of the army from 1894
per- 1000 in 1901 to 1919 per 1000
in 1902 is shown In the annual report
of Surgeon General O'Reilly for the
fiscal year ending June 80. This In
crease is attributed to cholera, which
caused S.54 deaths per 1000. A slight
Improvement appears in the admission
rate to sick reports for disease and in
jury which declined from 1791.59 per
1000 in 1901 to 1861 per 1000 In
1902. Discussing other features of the
health Of the army, Surgeon General
O'Reilly's report says:
The enrolment of about 5000 ma
tive Filipino scouts having added a
new racial element to the army 1t
becomes matter Of much interest
to study the, comparative effects OF
disease on them and on our white and
colored troops. For the whole army
at home and abroad, during the year
1902 the white troops showed an adj
mission rate Of 1,70S.33 per 1000 and
death rate of 14.40. The negro
