WASHINGTON, D. C.. July 17.?War
department officials are giving the major
portion of their attention to the
adoption of strict measures for the
protection of our troops from yellow
fever and from low tropical fevers. Tho.
department has decided to remove the
troops at Santiago at the earliest possible
moment to the country In the rear.
Adjutant General Corbin said to-day
that within Ave miles of Santiago pro

as obtainable in the tropica for stamp- j
ing out the fever. High hill* assured |
iveil-drained camps, a most .Important
element In the preservation of health,
the water supply coming from the
mountains was pure and abundant and
fresh sea breezes prevailed.
While the main body of troops Is to
be transferred back to these hills until
they are needed for services elsewhere
or are .returned to the United States,
some trcops necessary will be placed
either In the town Ijielf or In camp*
command I tig'the place, In order to protect
the Inhabitants. It Is believed that
the two regiments of Immunes already
on their watf to Santiago will be as
signed to that duty. This will bo a eo- j
vore test of the principle Involved In |
the formation of the immune regiment? |
for It Is suspected that many of the alleged
immunes are merely persons who
have spent only a few weeks In the
tropics under conditions that never
brought them into dJrect exposure to
yellow fever. .
Surgeon General Wyman, of the man
ri?e hospital service, says there Is not a
single case of yellow fever in this country
ho far as he knows, and no preparations
are making to receive yellow fever
patients. It is his understanding
that Secretary Alger will soon order the
two companies of soldiers now at TortuKas,
off the Florida coast, to some
other point, and this place then will revert
to the marine hospital.

Latter Conversation.
"Der cloud* are setting cloudier untf

said the Sinker Man, addressing Sarsaparilla.
Bellly, In the little restaurant
"I am sorry-far-our soldiers vlch got
not umbrellas* in der war."
"They carry guns." remarked Rellly:
"surf) th' soldiers In th* civil war had no
umbrellas, and it rained ulmoat all the
tolme."
"Do the var makes red vedder rain
more as before?" asked Sinkers.
"01 think it does." answered Rellly;
"Ol remlnmer whin th* big battles were
beln' fit ire ha J condensed atmosphere

ruin, all the time."
"Veil, vat makes der rain?" asked
Sinkers.
"Ol'm surprised." said Rellly, "that
ye don't know that. Ye see, th' waters
av th' earth ar?; raised up Inter clouds
around the atmosphere, an' then precipitate
their waters back to th' earth."
"How do It do It?"
"Do what?" asked Rellly.
"Participate der hemisphere back to
der earth." said Sinkers.
"In a very simple way," said Rellly.
"Ye see, when air Is suddenly chilled its
capacity av hoi din' moisture In th*
utate :iv Invisible vapor Is diminished
nri' th* i'xcIss of moisture Drlslnt be
codim visible, an* Is seu free In parti-.

have th' menn timper-nture av 30 degrees;
but, since at these tlmper-atures
th' wan portion held 200 parts of humodity
an* th* other wan S00, sure the
aggregate must contain 1,000 parts; or,
we'll say half an' hnlf, which Is 500.
At th' resultln' timner-ntiire, however.
this portion could only stsplnd 400 parts

"Let us argument about der var,"
said Sinkers. "You know vat? I vere

"Yes,* said RelHy. "They might hire

look better as-on ornament to a Dutch

"Now you're commeneln* again." said
Sinkers. "It's a vender you don't say

"So,' remarked Kellly, "I know she's
