Excerpt from Report of the Secretary of War, 1874, Vol. 1: Being Part of the Message and Documents Communicated to the Two Houses of Congress at the Beginning of the Second Session of the Forty-Third Congress During the summer of 1873 yellow fever appeared as an epidemic at various cities in the Southern States, assuming at some points a most malignant type, and proving exceedingly fatal, as for example at Mem phis, Tenn., and at Shreveport, La. That it did not prevail to a greater extent in the Army must be regarded as being due to the hygienic precautions adopted, and especially to the prompt removal of the troops from those posts at which the disease was introduced from infected local ities, or at which its introduction appeared to be imminent. The data for the descriptive anatomical catalogue have been perfected. The publication of this work, recommended by the Secretary of War and by the House of Representatives, was not acted upon by the Senate. The materials are so arranged that the work can be speedily completed when authority to print is granted, and I would respectfully renew the recommendation made in my previous annual reports, that authority be given to publish one thousand copies of the work. Legislation is necessary to authorize the Congressional Printer to publish an additional edition of complete copies of the Medical and Surgical History of the War, and this I recommend.

Excerpt from Report of the Secretary of War, Vol. 1: Being Part of the Message and Documents; Communicated to the Two Houses of Congress at the Beginning of the Second Session of the Forty-Fourth Congress Mr. President: The short space of time that has elapsed since I entered upon my present duties has barely sufficed to familiarize me with the affairs of the Department, and in this report I shall confine myself to a summary of the reports of the General of the Army and the chiefs of the various bureaus, referring you for details to the full reports of those officers, which are presented herewith. It is unnecessary to speak here of the size or organization of the Army, for the "whole subject of reform and re-organization of the Army" has been referred, by the act of July 24, 1876, to a commission consisting of two members from each house of Congress, the Secretary of War, and two officers of the Army. This commission met on the 11th of August, and has since collected a large mass of valuable statistics and opinions bearing upon the questions before it. These are now under consideration, and after full deliberation the report will be made up and presented to you for transmittal to Congress. It is hoped that the convictions of a commission containing such distinguished officers as Generals Sherman and Meigs, and Senators and Representatives of experience both in military and legislative affairs, will receive from Congress the consideration to which they are entitled, and that a comprehensive organic act may be framed for the Army which shall relieve it in the future from much of the special legislation which in so many cases is very detrimental to its discipline and efficiency. By the act of March 1, 1876, the President was authorized to make and publish regulations for the government of the Army, in accordance with existing laws. A set of regulations was drawn up under this act and was in course of consideration when, by resolution of August 15, 1876, the President was requested "to postpone all action in connection with the publication of said regulations until after the report of said commission shall have been received and acted on by Congress at its next session." In accordance with this resolution the draught of the regulations has been submitted to this commission for consideration in connection with other matters brought to its attention, and no further action has been taken for their promulgation.
