not including the French and Russian,
whose battle losses have not been
made public.
1t is the opinion of eminent military
medical experts In this city. however,
that modern armies have such Inn
proved sanitary system the old pro
portion OF death through disease and
gunshot will be shown to have materi-
ally changed when actual figures on
the casualties are known.
History reveals terrible record OF
military deaths through disease. and
the last great example of this was in
stanced in our own war with Spain.
In that war more than thirteen OF our
men were sacrificed to disease result
Ing from sanitary ignorance and in
competency to every one who died in
battle.
In the Russo-Turkish war occurred
another shocking case of loss of life
from preventable diseases. In this
struggle 10000 soldiers were killed on
the field of battle or died OF their
wounds; 10000 perished from disease.
During six mLnths of the Crimean cam.
paign the allied forces lost $4,000 men
from sickness and but 1000 from the
fire Of the enemy. Cholera was one
of the principal causes Of this disas-
trous loss of life. Sometimes whole
regiments contracted the malady and
were completely wiped out. At that
time the nature of the disease was not
understood, and precautions against
infection through water supplies and
food were not taken. Consequently a
single case might result in wholesale
injection.
Cholera has long been the dread Of
armies operating in localities where
the malady fiourishes. 1t was apparent
tn the Balkan war, when both the
Turks and the allies lost heavily from
the disease. Eyewitnesses to that
struggle told II seeing marching col
umns from which every few minutes
men would drop and drag themselves
of to one side to die. Some of these
regiments lost half their numbers be-
fore reaching the front.
In our war with Mexico in 1s47. be-
fore much was known of the value of
sanitation, three Of our soldiers died
of sickness to one of bullets.
The glamour of battle. of musketry,
Of artillery fire. of bayonet charges
and the other methods of taking life
employed in battle have always taken
public attention from the more silent
reaping by disease. A certain cam
paign cost SO many thousand men in
battle. No reck is taken of the other
thousands who contracted sickness In
that campaign that cost their lives.

remains of the stricken army.
DR.. Louis Livingston Seaman OF
New York, writing from Europe, where
he has taken the field for the active
study of military sanitation, declares
that the present war may establish a
new record for absence of disease be-
cause of the lesson in military santa
tion taught the world by the Japanese
In their war with Russia in 1905.
Without minimizing her victories
on land and sea, some of them the
bloodiest battles in history, l have no
hesitancy in saying that the greatest
conquests OF Japan have been In the
humanities of war-in the stopping OF
needless sacrifice of lives by the pre-
vention of disease. s..,..
When Japan makes war she mobi-
Lies her fighting forces, but with equal
speed, with equal care, she mobilizes
her other army of fghters-the war
riors against disease. It was that way
in the war with Russia. In their long.
headed fashion the Japanese looked
into the future. They realized that
every sailor, every soldier saved from
death by disease was Just one more
to fight the Russians. And with this
in view a systematic campaign was
started to save the lives of Japanese
fighters. The first step was to make
the medical army of equal importance
and equal rank to the fighting army.
The medical army, or sanitary army,
which was what it was, had numer'
ical strength of $4,000 men-the great.
est army of the kind the world had
ever seen. 1t was composed OF sani.
tary soldiers-men who were under
the direct command of medical Off.
L er, who handled and maneuvered
them exactly as a fighting army is
maneuvered. They carried out sani.
tary regulations, policed the camps Of
the regular army, served as hospital
stewards, litter carriers and took care
of the cleanliness of the food and wa
ter sources.
THE medical officers were always
found at the front of the army. They
went with the first line OF scouts, for
they themselves were scouts. scouts
for good .sp.. .,lies of water and good
forage. Chey located wells and
streams al ID made analytical tests Of
the water. They tested food. ap.
proved good and condemned the bad.
Between battles the medical officers
lectured the men on the need Of sani-
tation. Practically the whole Of Ja-
pans army were sanitary experts by
the end of the war. There is little
doubt but that the armies of Europe
have proflted by the example set by
the Japanese. and that the present war
will be singularly free from disease
epidemics."

rake the Blood Out and Wash II.

Drs. v. A. Urevitch and N. X.
Rosenberg have discovered a way to
take the blood out Of the body, wash
it and put 1t back again. In the
Roussky Vraitch the describe their ex-
periments upon animals. The idea,
OF course, Is to rid the blood of pol
sonous substances. They found they
could remove half the blood, prevent
its coagulation by adding sodium cit
rate, wash 1t with salt solution and
return the purified red corpuscles into
the circulation. 1t was not necessary
to return the white corpuscles.
The New York Medical Journal re-
marks that this, taken together with
the transplantation OF organs and the
growth of tissues outside the body,
forms an entirely new chapter In
experimental medicine. Who can tell
what the future has In store for us?"
