STARVING THE SOLDIERS.
Investigation Into the CUISINE of .he Mess
Hull at Fort Sheridan.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, April L. Saturday
was the first day of the Investigations
of the mess hall at Fort Sheridan.
Colonel Heyl, inspector general of the
department of Missouri, began an in
vestigation yestel day morning under
orders from General Miles, and de
voted the greater part of cay to
hearing complaints from the men,
When he had patiently listened for
two hours to the same story from each
of forty men Of bad and insufficient
food, he became convinced that there
must be something wrong with the
mess hall management. Col. Heyl set
up a secret court, consisting of him
self and stenographer, in Col Graf
tons private office.
One by one the soldiers were admit
ted. When a grizzled veteran who
had seen twenty years OF service in
every part Of the country, stated that
the mess at Fort Sheridan was the
worst he had ever seen, and not to be
compared with the mess in the field in
active service, his complaint seemed to
have great weight with the inspector,
II want to complain of the quality and
quantity of the food served in the
mess hail." was the almost invariable
preface to the statements made by
each complainant. The food is bad to
begin with; it is but half cooked when
served Another said that one morn
ing after having been up all night,
what we received was bread and
cheese and coffee. Another said
he had been threatened with court
martial because he had dared to ask
that piece of bacon that had been
given him be changed because it was
so fat he could not eat it.
A non-commissioned officer brought
charges of misappropriation of funds
against the post exchange or saloon.
II would like to know he said, what
has become of the profits OF the can
teen?'" The inspector could not tell
him, but promised to look the matter
up. 1t is estimated that those profits
were on an average of $500 per month
and should have been divided between
the companies.

THE TRUTH OF 1T.

The news has reached the Phila-
delphia papers that Cara is in San
Antonio, that ne never has tried to
run border revolutions; that he used
to engineer little smuggling scheme,
but had given up the business more
than year ago. But alas, this is not
true! The Philadelphia papers have
been misled. The STATESMAN will
now inform them, if they won't give
it away, that Cara is in Austin,
where he takes great interest in the
construction of the dam, and that he
expects to come in as dark horse if
the convention locks on Hogg and
Clark. 1t may also be added that
CARA is the Houston POSTS candi-
date.

FROM VELASCO.
WHAT is BEING DONE THERE IN THE

Large and Substantial Brick Structures Are
Taking the Place Of the Frame Build

Pervades Every Quarter.
Special to the Statesman.

Special to the Statesman.
VELAsCo, Tex, April 3.-This young
city, which began its existence in the
year of Texas most serious business
depression since 1873, has felt abso-
lutely none of this stagnation, but has
continued to grow and to expand, and
present a scene of bustling activity
since the day OF last July when the
first lot was sold. For the first five
months of its existence the sound OF
the hammer and saw made merry
music for the progress loving man
who had cast his lot with this boss
baby city, seeking a home and for
tune. Now, however, the sound of
the trowel rings out the requiem OF
the exclusively wooden building Pc
riod of new city, and the ascent and
descent of the hod carriers may be
seen on several blocks of the city.
Of course there are a great
many frame structures still
being built, ranging from the
little box house, which supplants
the tent, to the ell giant residence and
two-story business house; but the
brick business house or block evidences
the substantial character of the pres
ent activity in permanent improve
ment.
Notwithstanding all assertions to
the contrary, there is more genuine
activity in Velasco today in real es-
tate, building, and in all those things
which go to make up the progress of a
place, than in any other city in Texas.
There are now under construction
five brick business buildings, five
frame business buildings, an ice fac
tory, coal elevator, $4,000 hotel at
"Surfside," five frame residences, and
innumerable box houses. There is a
force of over $50 men employed in
this work at good wages. Does this
resemble stagnation at Velasco?
Besides the brick houses already
erected and occupied by merchants,
and those now under construction;
besides the 600 buildings in this
young city and those in process of
erection, there are several very large
structures now contemplated and fig
ures actually being made on them.
Nearly one-half mile M IRE of wharf
will soon be constructed, the Velasco
and Northern railway is being sur
veyed, the Velasco and Surfside rail
road is being graded and is nearly
completed, the ice wagon selling We
lasco's own product will soon be on
our streets, the real estate transfers
will compare tavorably each week
with any city in the state, no matter
what its population, business men are
every day arriving and negotiating
for the establishment of industrial or
commercial enterprises, hundreds of
bales OF cotton arriving for export to
foreign shores, the merchants are all
busy, and the Velasco National Bank,
which was the first on the ground,
and whose business has increased to
such proportions, it's directors will in
few days break ground for magni-
ficent bank building.
Verify. Velasco's activity increases
as the days 60 by.

sUBTREAsURY DEMOCRATS.
They Organize Jeffersonian Democratic
Club With Finley's Sort Left Out.

special to the Statesman
CORN HILL, Tex, April 4.-Politics
in this section are getting woefully
mixed. Some time ago d call for all
true Democrats to assemble in mass
meeting at the Corn Hill college on
the night of April 2, was issued by the
chairman of the county executive
committee of reform Democrats. In
answer to this call, crowded house
was in waiting at all early hour last
Saturday night. The meeting was
called to order by Mr.. G ]. Jackson,
chairman of the executive committee
of reform Democrats, who proceeded
to address the house in no
uncertain voice. He asserted
and produced startling array OF
documentary evidence to back the as
sertion, that the founders of Demo
cracy were legal tender men and OPP
posed to national banks and as the
sub-treasury plan was but method
by which legal tender money could
pass from the government that makes
it to the citizens who use it without
the Intervention of national banks,
therefore they were the only true
simon pure Democrats, while Finley
and his crowd had strayed so far from
the fold that they were irretrievably
lost. Mr.. Finley's decree denying
the sub-treasuryites voice in the
cow entions was very severely oriti
cised. He declared that that rulins
mo d Q it necessary for all sub-treasury
Dr. mocrats to organize.
1t was then announced that a Jeffer
sonian Democratic club would be Or
ganized. The appeal was enthusiastic
ally responded to, and a long list of
names required.
Today another call is in circulation.
1t also calls for all the Democrats to
meet on the night of the 1st for the
purpose Of organization. The las
call will be we'll attended, and it is
thought, will develope considerable
strength. Merry times are expected.

Ohio Republicans.

New YORK, April 4.-Gen. Charles
H. Grosvenor, of Ohio, was in this
city Thursday. He said that there
was possibility that he might go to
Rhode Island, though he was not
feeling physically able to enter hard
campaign work. The Legislature of
Ohio has completed the redistricting
of the state. He said to Times re-
porter:

the Republicans will be the gamer,

nUNSOnND DEMOCRACT."


The DIG. News utUers an indignant
protest against the reason assigned
by the Democratic executive commit
tee for refusing to send either conven-
ton to Dallas; namely, that the city
had refused to elect democratic
mayor, and therefore her democracy
was doubtful. The News is right in
saving that the spirit that prompted
this reason is undemocratic and has a
considerable leaven of Matchmaking
about it. The STATESMAN does not
believe that party politics should be
introduced into municipal campaigns.
Those officers should be placed in
charge of city affairs who are most
liberal and progressive, who have
most administrative ability and can
be depended on to make the city
the first consideration. Is IL in
deed fact that no city can
expect any favors from
the democratic party un
less it promises such slavish ODE
dience to that party as to carry poll
tics into the election of every city Of
ficer from mayor to pound-keeper,
THE STATESMAN has had a different
view of things. During two municip-
campaigns it has favored repu6-
lican for mayor. 1t challenges COM
parison of the city government under
his administration with that of any
city which has filled its offices with
democrats. When Austin filled this
office she was looking for neither a
republican or democrat, but for a
mayor, and she found one, who is
identifying himself with the growth
of the city. And now, because Of this,
should Austin like Dallas be left out
in the cold when it comes to demo-
cratic preferment? TIE STATESMAN
thinks that the executive committee
made slight mistake when 1T ex-
pressed itself in these terms. 1t spoke
before it thought. 1t is now in order
for the committee to do little think
ing

1T WILL BE SOLID FOR CLEVE-
LAND

The formation of a large and enthu-
siastic Cleveland club in Memphis
leads the Appeal-Avalanche to say:
Cleveland represents the very es-
sence of Democracy; he is the embod-
iment of advance. His name means
no step backward. 1t is singular with
what unanimity the people of the
country have rallied to him when
once it was made apparent that the
standard principles of the party were
in jeopardy from backsiders and re-
dictionaries. Minnesota has just sent
forth stirring blast for the great
Democratic chieftain, and everywhere
there is an awakening. The Boston
Herald's Washington correspondent
has recent made a careful survey of
the field, and he gives the following
table as an estimate of Cleveland's
strength:
