The examining board has always classed registrants in three classes; first, those physically fit for general military service; second, those fit for limited military service and finally those positively rejected. The new regulations will not effect those already passed but will call for anexamination of those who have been made subject to limitary military service calls by the medical advisory board. All registrants, placed in the limited military service call by the examining board, will be subject to a final examination by the medical advisory board.

"Hyperthyroidism." a strange malady which produces anxiety and fear and ultimately affects the heart so seriously that a recruit has to be sent home utterly broken in health, has developed among the soldiers as Camp Upton, according to Dr. Harlow Brooks, chief of the medical service at the camp. . The statement was made during a lecture before the New York Academy of Medicine last night. The disease, according to Dr. Brooks for several years has baffled the skill of surgeons in the British umy. Many of the men in the British service, lie said, have been seized with acute melancholia and not a few have deserted or committed suicide. . Among American recruits, however, the effects of the disease have been entirely different. "We have not found," said Dr. Brooks, "that hyperthyroidism is a cause of suicide among soldiers in America. Nor have we found that the recruits who suffer from it are seized with melancholy or broodings and want to go home or desert, as in the British army. We have found at Camp Upton that the recruit who becomes afflicted with the malady most generally is one who was wildly enthusiastic to join the army. The disease usually takes hold on a soldier

WHEEL STEAMBOAT

Leach Cross Hero In Freak Bouts LEACH CROSS Leach Cross, the New York lightweight who retired from the ring a season or two ago, was never a champion and yet he was one of the greatest drawing cars of the game. This is chiefly because mary of the fights Cross had part in were so unusual in one way or another that the fans were always eager to see him perform. It is probable that no fighter has "ever piled up the record for fantastic performances that Cross did during his career in the ring. One of the most interesting knock-outs ever recorded occurred in a bout some years ago when Cross met Paddy Sullivan, a second-ratr but a tough boy and a fairly clever boxer. Cross stopped Sullivan and had him "out on his feet" in the real sense of the phrase and in a way that has never happened before or since. In the third round Cross shot across his famous right to the jaw and Sullivan's legs began to sag. Before he could drop Cross followed up with a terrible uppercut that stiffened Sullivan's legs and he f-.tcod erect in the corner of the ring where Cross had rushed him. Sullivan did not roach for the support of the ropes, but stood flat on his feet, his hands at his sides and looking out over the crowd with eyes that saw nothing. When Cross attempted to follow up with more blows, the referee, who saw that Sullivan was out, stopped between them and it was only after the use of restoratives that Sullivan was brought to consciousness. When he began to come to his sense he swung his arms wildly and aftfir being calmed declared that he remembered nothing of the blow on the jaw and would not believe for some while that he had been really knocked out. Almost every time Cross crawled through the ropes something, unusual occurred to set the fans talking and he owed a great part of his popularity to this alone. His record is one long list of curious bouts and whether or not he fought a champion or first-rate boxer he was pretty certain to pack them at the gate. Cross was also one of the few fighters who ever had the sense to retire before he had hit a slump ii nd never to try a comeback. Richmond Men May Not Have Been on Ship It was believed improbable, Friday, that any Richmond men were aboard ibe Tuscania according to reports received from Washington. James B..
