les Seem impossible.
The great feature of the war has
been the huge masses engaged. Leip-
zig itself in this respect compares
poorly with Mukden. The hosts of
1912 were not so numerous as those
that invaded Manchuria, and Boro-
dino may outrival Liaoyang in hor-
rors but not in numbers of guns or
men that fought. Yet it is surely re-
markable that after an unbroken rec
ord of defeat on such a huge scale
the Russians still can show an army
fully equipped and organized in posi-
ton. Liaoyang and Mukden were
truly enough to break the spirit and
dissolve the ranks OF the stoutest
troops in the world.
In spite of the list of killed and
wounded, of the prisoners, of the guns
and trophies the war could still have

DR.. Louis /. Seaman Of New York,
in speaking before the convention Of
military surgeons at Detroit on the
fight made by the Japanese army on
disease, strongly criticised American
sanitary work during the war with
Spain. He declared conditions were
misrepresented and that hundreds
died of disease unnecessarily. Neglect
and even ignorance characterized the
acts of high army officers in caring
for their men, he insisted. On the

versed positions as to the seriousness of the yell
low fever situation. The State is now the centre
of greatest anxiety.
After watching the city record since last Sun
day DR.. Juan Guiteras the noted fever expert
tonight authorized the following statement
Il now believe the Marine Hospital Service
has the New-Orleans fever situation IN hand
and under control. 1 believe the number or
cases will grow less each day until. by the mid
die OF September. there will only be sporadic
cases Of fever In New-OrIeans. I am convinced
the spread has been checked and that the dis
ease win be stamped out before frost The
most important thing right Is for New
Orleans TO protect herself against importation
of fever cases from the infected points in the
State"
On this last reference OF Dr. Guiteras hangs
the most vital point to the days developments.
New-Orleans will quarantine against infected
points In the State That decision was reached
to-day. Dr. White and his trained fever fighters
believe they have the fight so we'll in hand that
they must be protected against fresh importa-
tions.
