STORRS MAKES REPORT
Were 81 Cases Each of Diphtheria and
Scarlet Fever Last Month.

S. ]. Crumbine, secretary of the
state board of health, has called upon
City Physician Storrs for a detailed
report of the cases of contagious dis
ease occurring in Topeka during the
past three months, and has served no
tice on the city physician that the
state law requires him to make such
a report
Heretofore, the city physician has
ignored the requirements for re-
port, and the state board of health
has been obliged to get along the best
letter was sent to City Physician
Storrs by Secretary Crumbine:
In looking over the law in the
matter, I find that city boards of
health are required to make reports
to the state board of health. See the
latter clause of Sec. 8 and the latter
clause of Sec II, Art. 1, Chap rs,
General Statutes of 1897 These sec
tons certainly prescribe the duties of
city health officers or local boards of
health, and as this information is re-
CURED by the state board of health
in order to carry out the provisions of
this act for which the board was Gre
ated, namely, that of supervising the
general health interests of the state
and of tabulating vital statistics, the
board must insist upon having these
reports Kindly make your report at
the earliest possible date.
IS. ]. CRUMBINE."
City Physician Storrs turned over
the blanks sent him by Dr. Crumbine
to his sanitary sergeant r. p. Pay.
Mr. Pay has prepared a report which
ought to be an interesting documen
to the state board of health as show
Ing how the health records of a large
city ought not to be kept
Mr. Pays report shows that the rec
ordS of the Topeka health department
are practically worthless for accuracy.
There is no particular effort made to
get reports of all cases of contagiOn,
apparently because the city physician
does not take sufficient interest in the
work of his office.
For example, the report shows that
there We're two cases of typhoid fever
during the three months, six deaths
from typhoid and nine houses fumigat-
ed where typhoid had been. This mere
ly shows that not nearly all the cases
of typhoid fever were reported by the
physicians of the city.
Another item of the report is that
there were ia births in Topeka during
the three months, and 119 deaths. As d
matter of fact, the births undoubtedly
numbered much more than specified,
because about half the physicians of
the city don't take the trouble to re-
port births.
According to the report, diphtheria
and scarlet fever were the most prev
alent diseases during the month, there
being 81 cases of each reported, and
eight deaths altogether.
There were thirteen deaths from
heart failure in the three months. The
report of deaths from heart failure was
not asked for by the state board of
health. The city health department
merely happened to have that piece of
information on hand, and threw it
into the report Cor good measure.
The following is the summary of the
report:

Desperate Fighting.
st. Petersburg, Oct. 13.-6:1O p. m.
Private dispatches sent the night of
october II from the headquarters or
General Bilderling, whose corps occu-
pies the Russian center, describe the
bloody and desperate character of the
| fight along the railroad north of Yen
tai station where on Monday the Rus
slams repeatedly charged the Japan
csc trenches at the point of the bay
onet, the fight continuing into the
night The Japanese reserved their
fire until the Russians at the double
quick were almost upon them An
instance is given of a regiment with
in a few yards of the trenches, recoil-
ing before the murderous volleys of
the japanese, then coming on again
with reinforcements literally under a
shower of shrapnel and finally sue
ceeding in driving out the Japanese
But the Japanese artillery fire was
so whitening that the Russians were
unable to remain in the trenches. That
night the Japanese artillery lombard
ed the Russian center preparing the
which Field Marshal Oyama ordered
for Tuesday. The Japanese offensive
extended to their extreme left, General
Oku'S army being for the first time
engaged. At nightfall Tuesday the
Japanese had forced back the Russian
right, but the center field held fast,
although a few positions had fallen
into the hands of the Japanese.
The latest newspaper reports say
General Rennenkampff and Kashtalin-
sky enclrcled the Japanese right,
crossed the Taitse river and came out
on the Feng Wang Cheng road, the
Japanese retiring before them. The
news from these mixed columns is
three days old.
special dispatch to a newspaper,
dated late last night, says the battle
continued desperately along the whole
front, the most severe fighting being
transferred to the eastern front
Another dispatch to a newspaper,
dated from Hardin today says the tide
of battle is with the Russians. Upon
the basis of this dispatch extras"
with flaming headlines announcing a
japanese retreat along the whole line
were sold by thousands

COST OF THE ARMY.
Food Bill for Last Year Foots Up
$S,2S1,75O.

Washington, Oct. 13.-The annual
report of Brigadier General J. F.
Weston, commissary general of the
army, says the total cost of feeding
the army during the past fiscal year
was $S,2S1,750- During the year the
losses were $41S,650 in the Philip
pines, $7,467 on the transports, and
S129,S53 in the United States, Alaska,
Porto Rico, and elsewhere. From the
total amount of losses is to be deduct
ed SS5,9SO, the proceeds of sales at
auction of damaged and deteriorated
General Weston says that it is diff
cult and often impossible to prevent
losses on perishable stores. Losses are
due principally to long and difficult
water and inland transportation and
to trying climatic changes. The rapid
abandonment of posts also results in
large losses, particularly in the Philip
pines
General Weston urgently recon-
mends the passage of a bill by con-
gress to give authority to all officers
entrusted with the disbursement of
subsistence funds to hold restricted
amounts of such funds in their per-
sonal possession. He says the exigen-
cies of the public service require an
open disregard of the restrictions of
the existing law in cities where the
treasurer or an assistant is located.
He urges legislation authorizing the
sale at public auction of accumulated
subsistence stores in good condition
nomically be sent to other points for
issue or sale to troops.
General Weston says the problem
of feeding the army in the Philippines
was difficult one, but sit has been
successfully solved and subsistence
affairs in the archipelago are now
run with syStematical economy"
The subsistence department was en-
abled, it is stated, to make a contract
for fresh beef for the fiscal year of
1905 by which an annual saving of
over $4,000 was effected, as com
pared with the contract for the pre-
vious fiscal year. The running ex-
penses gradually have been reduced
to a minimum the report says, and a
saving of more than $4,000 made in
sfages of civilian employees alone.
zredit for these results is given to
Col. Henry G.. Sharpe, chief commits
gary of the Philippine division.
