TESTING MERCURY.
As a Cure For Leprosy in the Colony
on the Island of Guam

Washington, May 26.-Mercury as a
cure for leprosy is under investigation
by naval surgeons. The experiment is
being made in the leprosy colony on
the island of Guam. The same
method of treatment is being given to
the lepers by the naval surgeon as
that used by Surgeon b. l.. Wright, U.
S. n. in his treatment OF tuberculosis
at the naval hospital at Las Animas :,
Colo. Reports from Las Animas have
shown remarkable cures of tuber-
culosis in advanced cases by the
mercurial treatment
The treatment of lepers in the Guam
colony has not continued long enough
for definite results. The naval sur
geons are watching the progress of
these cases closely and will make inn
mediate reports to the Bureau of
effects of the treatment are known.
1t is pointed out by naval surgeons
here that there is a close analogy be-
tween tuberculosis and leprosy, both
bacteriologically and pathologically.
For this reason they decided to extend
the Investigations with mercury. AS
leprosy is a chronic disease. rapid
results are not anticipated. If cures
are made. it is said, they may come
only after years of treatment.
The leper colony in Guam consists
of 10 patients, all natives The pro-
portion of leprosy is about one to
every six hundred of the population 1f
the island.
