TYPHUS AT STENDAL CAMP.
GERMAN TREATMENT DP 'PRISONERS. DOCTORS FALL VICTLM3. London, June 2. A 'French doctor, Dr. Dumas, in an article in the British Medical Journal, says that when typhus appeared at the. Stendal Camp the Germans fled, leaving French and Russian doctors with the sick within a barbed-wire enclosure under most unfavorable conditions. Several medical men fell victims to the criminal want of forethought of those entrusted with the camp. The Government took steps only when the disease was spreading among their 'own people. Isolation huts were built, disinfectors and baths introduced, and anti-typhoid inoculations ostentatiously carried out on a large scale.
