Faces These Returning Soldiers
From Philippines.

Raving and swearing at theii
guards. shackles on their hands and

blank from exposure to the tropical
eleents with little or no hope for
their recovery, eighteen soldiers di-
rect from the Philippines passed
through Pueblo late last night en-
route to Washington. D, O., in charge
of one officer and fifteen guards. The
car containing the victims of the trop-
ical sun and fever was attached to the
second section of Nc. on the Rio
Grande. which passed through here
about Il O'Clock last night
Each of the demented soldiers was
bound with padded manacless while
every window in the car was heavily
barred. Fifteen guards we're requir.
ed to escort them to the capital city,
where some of them will enter the
soldiers home and others will be
placed In hospi ,als for the insane. At
times it requires the united efforts of
several of the guards to subdue some
of those most violent.
The mental arrangement is said to
be due to the rigors of the war in the
Philippines. Although number of
the Americans sent to the islands be-
come insane, this is said to be the lar
gest number ever brought to the Unit
ed States at one time. Many of them
have relatives along the route and the
scenes enacted at many of the way
stations are heartrending in the ex.
