BATHS As CURE
FOR DEMENTIA
Entirely New Method Tried
in a New York Hospital
With Encouraging Success
WATER ENDS DELIRIUM
In One Case a Patient Was
Kept Immersed in a Tub
for Period of Two Weeks

NEW YORK, March 29.-By the sys-
tematic use OF various forms of hot and
cold baths, jets and douches, vapor and
hot air baths, the Manhattan State
Hospital on Wards Island has done
away entirely with sedatives or me-
chanical restraint for the patients. even
when violently demented or in strong
deliriums.
This hospital, the first public institu-
ton in the country to adopt the use OF
water as a recognized part Of its course
of treatment, has been experimenting
and tabulating the results for some
time.
Forms of water treatment" are IN
use there, which are said not to have
been tried elsewhere, notably the CON
tinuous bath for patients In violent
delirium. The patient, placed in
bathtub of water at exactly blood heat,
is kept there under observation by ex-
perienced nurses and the physicians
for hours-for days If necesSary-until
the delirium has abated. In one case
it was found necessary to keep the pa
tient immersed in the water fourteen
days. She came out of the delirium
and under other branches of the treat
ment recovered from her 9ementia.
The death rate in such cases was for
merly 60 per cent, but the physicians
having charge of the experiments be-
lieve their treatment will save the life
of every patient under delirium, unless
some other form of insanity or physical
disease sets in
Under the new scheme patients. no
longer subject to constraint, are kept
outdoors in tents and pavilions- They
are first examined carefully by physi-
n;o urh then from
the data map out a plan Of treatment
In some cases a bath of carbon dioxide
has been used. An elaborate arrange
ment of bath apparatus has been es-
tablished in the hospital for the full
development of the system.

Special Dispatch to Tn. Call.

CALL BUREAU, POST BUILDING;
WASHINGTON, March 29.-President
Roosevelt has determined upon the
heads for the army during his admin
istration. General Adna r. Chaffee
will be succeeded by General John C.
Bates. who in turn will give way to-
General Henry c. Corbin, who is in
command of the Philippine division.
Major General Bates, who Is now in
command of the Northern division, will
approach the position of chief of staff
by easy stages. He is booked first for
the post of assistant chief of staff.
General G. l.. Gillespie now holds this
position, but he will go out on or be-
fore October /, at which time General
Bates will be assigned to succeed him.
General Bates will serve as assistant
chief of staff until the retirement of
Lieutenant General Chaffee which will
occur on April IA, 1906, at which time
General Bates will become lieutenant
general and chief of staff. He will
serve in that capacity until August 6,

thor suddenly frightened up and made
move that suggested that he was
about to enter upon a long discussion
of that affair, but suddenly relapsing
into silent mood again, he said:
The people of the United States, from my
point of view, made excellent selection
when they elevated Theodore Roosevelt to the
highest position in their gift. He is re-
markable mana fact that deeply impressed
me at both visits I enjoyed with him. He is
man worthy of any trust the people may
repose in him. He certainly showed a deep
interest in my mission, but / would not care
to discuss our interviews / would like to
say something about your country that is
what / have already seen of it. 1t is up-
doubtedly great one and remarkably pros
porous. In my opinion however It still needs
more populating. There is still much idle
land that needs to be titled, for the more
that your toilers take from the ground the
longer will they be assured of their pros
perity.
Our greatest failing at present in England
is the fact that the tilers of the soil are
growing fewer and fewer. The allurne attrac-
tons OF the big cities have caused thousa nds
to leave the healthy atmosphere of the omen
country and strive in vain in the overpopulated
metropolis for a livelihood for which thev
originally were not destined. 1t is to conn
teract this mad rush that England must find
some feasible scheme, and the coloniza ton
projects seemingly have strongly appealed to
the Government ~FF~oto1 "

Washington, said tonight that he was

aware of any threatened trouble in his

President of Hayti for information. To-
day the Minister had talk over the
telephone with the Haytian Commis-
sioner at New York, who said he had
received q dispatch from the President
of the republic to-day and that it con-
tanned no reference to possible rising.
The Minister is unable to understand
why the specific dates of March 81 and
April are mentioned as dates on which
it is doubtful whether the authorities
can maintain order. So far as he is
aware there is nothing of an unusual
nature to occur on those dates.

author was the guest of Hammond at
dinner at the Pacific Union Club.
In response to the question If he had
been gathering material for new
novel during his short stay in this
country, Haggard answered that he
had not. He referred to his latest pro-
duction, "The Brethren story of the
crusaders, which has only recently been
issued and is meeting with success in
this country. Before he undertakes to
write another story, Haggard said. he

To-day Haggard will go to Millbrae as
the guest of Whitelaw Reid and will
later accept some of the many invita-
tions that have been extended to him
in this city. After leaving Colorado he
expects to go to New York and then to
Canada. where he will be the guest of
several of the Dominion officials with
whom he has long been on friendly
