by mail, DIR. J. K. Dorsey of Wichita
was fined $3.50 by Judge Pollock in the
Kansas side federal court Friday.
Dorsey was indicted with several other
Wichita doctors for misuse Of the mails.

tised to diagnose and cure malignant dis
eases by correspondence, and in his testi-
mony Dorsey admitted as much and ex-
planned his method. He said he sent let
ters to prospective patients, with coupons
attached. on which the patient indicated
his symptoms.
The coupons were marked ''rheuma-
tism." 'lumbago" and the names Of other
ordinary ailments to assist the patient
in Identifying his complaint. Medicines
and advice were then returned by mail,
and the treatment continued as long as
the patient remitted the fees.
Judge Pollock said in imposing the fine
that the government regarded medical

AMBULANCE DOGS
DOING THEIR PART
In the European War But Are
Not Given Full Recognition

Correspondence OF Associated Press).
PARIS. Nov. -30.-Notwithstand-
ing much that has already been re-
corded OF them, the ambulance dogs
nave not yet been given full recogni-
ton for the part they are playing in
the war. say the dog lovers.
Through the courtesy Of DR.. Kress-
er OF the National Society Of Ambu-
lance Dogs, The Associated Press has
been shown q dozen letters from army
surgeons and soldiers telling in in
teresting detail some of their intelli-
gent and courageous feats. First, dis
cussing the general usefulness of the
dog In field ambulance work, DR..
Kresser said this usefulness had be-
come greater in proportion to the de-
lvelopment of modern methods of war
fare.
"The infantryman today does his
fighting from the grouno under any
cover he can find." he said, creeping
through thickets, hiding in bitches,
behind hedges and every spot that is
likely to conceal him from the enemy.
Naturally the same cover hides him
from the view of the stretcher bear
ers picking up the wounded after the
battle.
This duty is further complicated
by the fact that 1t must be done at
night, as the intensity of fire makes
1t impossible to. pick up wounded on
the field during an engagement. In
this work Of seeking the wounded at
night the ambulance dog becomes in
dispensable, since lights are forbid
den to the stretcher bearers for fear
of exposing positions to the enemy;
consequently the salvation Of hun
dreds Of wounded soldiers depends
upon the sharp scent, intelligence and
devotion Of the ambulance dog.

SAYS DISTRESS RUMORS
GREATLY EXAGGERATED
Secretary Garrison Belieevs Not More
Than 10000 Americans Are
on the Continent.
OUTLOOK IS MORE OPTIMISTIC

Reports of distress to American So
journers in Europe have been greatly ex-
aggerated. according 10 the view ex-
pressed last night by Secretary Of War
Garrison. In the opinion OF the prime
mover in the general relief work. the
panic among the Americans in ;he war
zone and adjacent territory is rapidly
subsiding.
Mr.. Garrison has come to the conclu-
sion that there is a maximum Of possibly
1000 Americans on the Continent. with a
more likely minimum of $1,000 Previous
estimates have been as high as 30, 900.
Lieut.. Col. George o. Squier, the Amer
lean military attache at London. report
ed yesterday that there were aproXi-
mately 1000 Americans now in the Brit
ish Isles. This group is being materially
augmented by a daily influx from French
and other continental countries except
Germany.
II is in Switzerland that the greatest
annoyance to American tourists exists,
according TO Secretary Garrison's ad-
visers. This is by reason OF the entire
shutting on OF specie payments and the
inability Of the American travellers to
have their checks cashed and their let
tiers OF credit honored. In the opinion Of
the Secretary this condition will last
only for day or so.
Inc VI AiAtllSdhs "
the United States by Government-hired
transports is regarded now as somewhat
remote. In the opinion Of the Var De-
partment chief, il may become nec.s-
sary to engage a few transport ships to
convey Americans from certain of the
European ports. but it Is believed that
regular lines from British ports, from
Havre. Cherbourg and Barcelona, will
shortly be resumed.
The most recent estimates Of the num-
Der Of Americans known to be in Europe
are furnished by the consuls TO the State
Department, and this list Secretary Gar
rison made public last night. II is as
