A YOUNGER MAN GOES IN
United States Army Surgeon General
o'Reiily Placed on the Retired
List on Account of Age.
Snecial to the Herald.

Special to the Herald.
Washington, D. c., Jan. 14.-After
a career of forty-five years in connec-
ton with the medical department of
the United States army, Surgeon Cen
eral Robert NJ. O'Reilly reached the
age limit for active service today and
was placed on the retired list. Gen
: eral O'Reilly is native of Pennsyl-
yania and was appointed. as assistant
surgeon in the army in 1867, after hay
ing served three years as a medical
cadet. Since 1902 he has been at the
head of the medical department with
the rank of brigadier general.
General O'Reilly is succeeded as
surgeon general by Colonel George H.
Torney, who recently has been in
charge of the general hospital at San
Francisco. Colonel Torney is a native
of Maryland. He was appointed to
the military academy from his native
state, and in 1875 was made an as
sistant surgeon. In 1894 he was pro-
NOTED to the rank of major and made
a surgeon. He was one of the first
physicians in America to recognize
the practical value of the X-ray in
surgery. When he was placed in
charge of the Relief which was then
the army hospital ship, one of the first
things he advocated was that num- |
Der of X-ray apparatuses be placed on |
the vessel, and it was done. Colonel |
Torney did excellent work in San
Francisco after the earthquake dis
aster The health conditions in that
city at that time are considered to
have been largely due to the work of
Colonel Torney and the officers who
were associated with him
The new surgeon general is tenth
on the list of colonies of the Medical
Corps, and. he was distinctly not the
candidate of the progressive officers
of that department of the army for
the important post of surgeon-general
1t is said that Colonel Torney has
had only six months tropical SER
vice. and that was performed when
heswas in the Philippines in 1902. He
is, however, one of the most popular
officers in the army, and his profess
sional standing is of the highest.
