character is responsible for very considerable
mortality.
A very serious complication of wounds is the
development of acute tetanus Qock-jaw), run
ming a very rapid course. but not marked by
very severe spasms. This, as a rule, develops
during the first week after the reception Of the
wound, but sometimes as late as the tenth or
fifteenth day.
The initial source of infection is to be traced
to the soil; it has been suggested that the
trucks forming the ambulance trains and straw
used for bedding down the patients might be
responsible, but for this 70 evidence exists.
and many patients have developed the disease
prior TO transport. The scourge is affecting
the armies of the allies and Germany in equal
degree of severity. An attempt TO control it's
development by the administration of phophy-
Tactic doses of serum TO all patients with severe
wounds as they are brought in from the
field is now being made.
There is no doubt that these complications
are the direct result OF difficulties OF collection
and transport OF wounded attendant upon the
military conditions under which fighting is now
taking place. Many of the patients lie in the
trenches until the darkness of night allows OF
their removal; their clothes are infltrated with
mud, while the same shell which has caused

~ ERHAPS no greater surprise has been ex-
perienced than the nature of the wounds
met with In the present war. The rela-
tive frequency Of wounds from bullets of small
calibre, and those inflicted by shrapnel or frag-
ments of shells, which was observed in the
South African war has been actually reversed.
Moreover, Of the limited number of bullet
wounds a considerable portion have been in
1icted by machine guns of the Maxim type, and
not by rifles curious fact is that there is
little difference between wounds Inflicted by
the German shrapnel and those of the round
ball fred from the old-fashioned musket.
Wounds produced by the small calibre bullet
maintain an aseptie (uninfected) condition. if
uncOmplicated while shrapnel and shell wounds
without exception become infected and sup
pirate. The mere occurrence of suppuration in
the case of even extended wounds Of the soft
parts has led to less serious consequences than
might have been expected; the slOughy sur
faces rapidly clean up, especially under the in
iuence of an iodine bath, and the patients, after
a couple of days rest in bed, show wonderfully
little sign of constitutional infection This is
also the case in many of the compound frac-
lures, although it is difficult to gauge how long
and tedious their course 20 ultimate recovery
may prove
A shrapnel shell usually contains 262 balls
The wounds produced by the shrapnel balls
vary in importance with the velocity retained
at the moment of impact; some merely bruise,
while others penetrate and others. again, pro-
duce injuries of the most severe explosive
type" The entry wounds are comparatively
small. often Of the slit or gutter type while the
exit especially where the bones are near the
surface, as IN the forearm or leg may be a
large mass of extruded lacerated muscle, with
numerous fragments of the crushed bone ex-
posed upon the surface
Such wounds are undoubtedly far more COM
mon than was the case in South Africa and
although some may be due to rife bullets the
men themselves are confident they were pro-
duced by shrapnel The patients also attribute
extensive decorations of the soft parts without
injury 10 the bones to shrapnel bullets, but it
seems obvious that these have been caused by
fragments OF the iron case of the she'll Such
fragments penetrate, sometimes leaving a mar
row bridge of skin over an extensive wound of

OF Brewers Association I'm
Session at New Orleans.

NEW ORLEANS. La, Nov 2O.-A
saloon out OF politics, stripped Of
shutters. blinds. alley entrances and
mirrors. and polished as an ice cream
palace. where a man and his wife and
children may find refreshment and
beer pumps and soda fountains Ope-
rated side by side. is fOrecasted by the
president OF the United Brewers asso-
citation.
Charles Nagel, former secretary Of
the department Of commerce and Ia
Dor. in his address later, strongly de-
Tended the case of the brewers against
prohibition. He also hit at what he
termed destructive legislation for the
regulation Of business enterprises by
the states and the nation.
We are making capital umid by
our ceaseless agitation over the curb
ing OF the so-called trusts and by
laws that regulate business enter
prises out of existence" he declared.
In a word the American saloon is to
be Germanized. or Europeanized-
transmitted into the type of the ia
nous "Bierhalle" OF Berlin.
The United States Brewers associa-
ton will itself WELD the stroke TO ac-
cOmplish this revolution of the Amer

its energies to this purpose, Pres

the wound often brings down the side of the
trench and the injured limb may be covered
with soil. Again, the fragment Of shell itself
is commonly fouled with soil.
Abundant opportunity thus exists for a pri-
mary infection of the wound Of a very gross
nature by the organisms of the soil. One has
only to look over the neighboring fields to APP
preciate the amount of manure with which the
soil is treated, since the agriculturists are now
placing the manure on the fields behind the
fighting line prior TO blowing it in One may
we'll look back with envy TO the clean soil OF
the South African Weld much as the dust was
then regarded as a bugbear.
A large majority Of the wounds Of the head
are the result Of injuries caused by shrapnel
balls. The German shrapnel is a little smaller
in calibre than our own, and cast Of lead, ap-
parently hardened by some alloy; the tangen-
tial wounds are often wide grooves in the scalp
with considerable communion OF the bones.
When striking directly the ball rarely passes
deeply, often lying on the surface OF the brain,
or if il perfOrates the latter not passing deeply
into the brain. Some of the tangential wounds
are accompanied by very extensive brain lacer-
alton.
The fact that most OF the wounds are in
fected before the patients reach the hospital
renders them unfayorable cases to deal with
al once, but the local conditions as a rule,
rapidly improve. and the local operations can
be undertaken. Wounds Of the face and jaws
are very common, also extensive injuries Of the
palate

Shrapnel balls pass through the cheek by
comparatively small openings. often of the
slit form. while the alveolus. OF palate may be
widely damaged. No special features are pre-
sented by chest injuries. beyond the fact that
they are generally more severe than those seen
In South Africa, and think the association Of
spinal complications without evidence of the
ball having actually traversed the vertebral
column is more common.
A small proportion of perforating wounds OF
the abdomen which have been accompanied by
no untoward symptoms are seen in most Of the
hospitals. In all these cases the injury has
been caused by rifle bullets. Shell wounds OF
the region OF the intestines are not uncommon.
canal is laid open. IL is a suggestive fact that
few similar injuries Of the anterior wall OF the
abdomen come into hospital although an oc-
casiOnal lacerated wound with hernia has been
seen.
The rarity Of division OF individual nerves
and large blood vessels has been already re-
marked upon. Fractures OF bones are numer-
GUS and severe, accompanied by large wounds
and much communion. while injuries 20 the
Joints are of a gross nature, and almost with
out exception. complicated By fracture of the
articuar ends Of the bones
The difficulties attendant on the transport
and treatment Of the large number OF wounded
have been in themselves immense, and have
been further enormously aggravated by the COM
plicati0ns dependent on the early backward
movement OF the troops.

the soft parts, while the extremities of the bone
sometimes present the appearance Of frac-
ture of a cane actual threads Of bone projecting
into the wound. Lodgment both of bullets and
shrapnel balls is comparatively common, and
contour wounds of the chest and head are not
rare.
Certain special characteristics due to the use
of machine guns and shrapneI are very striking.
Thus man struck by machine gun>may have
a line Of wounds passing from right to left
across the body; in one case five separate
wounds at the same level were distributed
across the chest. Again, when exposed to
shrapneI fire, where the shell bursts low, very
large number of balls may strike the same in
dVdual; as many thirty-four wounds of
varying severity have been counted on the body
of one In spite of the fact that no separ-
ate wound may be of any severity, such multi
Pile wounds cause extreme shock, from which
many of the patients die, while others take
some days before reaction is complete.

When the wound is a deep circular one, the
resemblance TO a crater in a malignant growth
is very great, but in a short time the edge

soft gTanulations which bleed freely.
In a certain proportion of cases the result is

would give command Of the Baltic sea
