Some of the Regiments Have
: Extra Spreads Out Of r.
Company Funds.
ALL RESTRAINTS SUSPENDED
Boys at Savannah Given All
the Liberty Possible by
Their Officers.
At Santiago the Day Passes
Quietly and Without Any
Disturbance.

HAVANA, Dec. 27.-Christma was as
lively as could be made by the troops in
camp with restricted resources. All the
company messes of the Forty ninth
Iowa, the First North Carolina, the
Fourth Virginia. the Second Illinois
and the One Hundred and Sixty-frst
Indiana regiments had extra ''spreads
o''t of company funds and from gifts of
well-to-do Havanans. The rations were
supplemented by fruit, canned meats,
potatoes and sometimes chicken. The
Sixth Missouri, the last regiment to az
rive, had no time to prepare extra food,
SO the men dined on fresh beef, veget-
ables and fruit. All the regimental
bands played, and the men were granted
leave within mile radius of the camp.
Company F Of the One Hundred and
Sixty-first Indiana regiment had a cac-
tus tree with present for everybody
stuck on the points, as for instance
bareback, beans. salt pork and candles.
The officers of the One Hundred and
Sixty-first INDUCED after dinner in
songs and speechmaking, with several
solo dances.
At Ell Vedado, the Eighth and Tenth
regular infantry regiments dined we'll
at the expense of the company funds.
Major General Lee and his staff par
took Of a modest dinner. General Lee
had number Of live turkeys available,
but as the birds are very lean he de-
cided to keep them on the chance of
improvement of the new years feast
after the flag raising.

General Miles Will Stand by
His Statements About Com
missary Supplies.
He Is Now Preparing a Paper.
That Will Substantiate All
He Has Said. ~---~
GENERAL EAGAN- OBJECTS
Will Ask tn g Com anding Gen.
era! if He Has Been Cor
reCtiy Quoted.
Then He Will Demand a Full
investigation Of All the
Charges.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-Unless Gen
eral Miles retracts the statements con-
cerning the fresh meat furnished the
army attributed to him by Cincinnati
paper or denies the authenticity, a court
martial may follow for either himself
or Commissary General Eagan. Sup
ported. he declares, by the reports Of Is
regimental commanders and others,
General Miles is not at all likely to
make any retraction Or denial, but it
is understood he has in course of prep
aration a paper which is intended to
substantiate the statement which he is
reported to have made. It is evident,
therefore, that very serious crisis has
been reached in the relations Of the
major general commanding the army
and the comnissary general. Friends
Of General Eagan say he feels that there
can be but one outcome the
Trial by Courtmartial
of either himself or General Miles, pro-
vided the latter fails to make a signed
statement to the secretary Of war deny
ing every word he is alleged to have
said.
When seen, General Miles declined to
make any statement whatever for publ
cation concerning the matter, but it is
understood that he will not retract what
he has said. He has made careful in
vestigation Of the beef question, and his
statements before the war commission
some days ago were fortified by reports
from regimental commanders and sur
geons. It is presumed by those close to
him that General Miles proposes to
make statement to the secretary Of
war concerning the condition Of the
meat furnished his army, and that such
action may be taken in the premises as
may be deemed proper.

CHRISTMAS AT SAVANNAH
Seventh Army Corps Celebrates the Da
in Civilian Style.

Seventh Army Corps Celebrates the Day
in Civilian Style.
SAVANNAH, Ga, Dec. 27.-Christmas
in the camp of the Seventh army corps
came as near being a civilian celebra-
ton as is possible in military life. Prac-
tically all army restraints were sus-
pended except morning and afternoon
calls and the men were left to enjoy
themselves in their own fashion. The
Third Nebraska, Colonel William j.
Bryan's old regiment, had a fund of
81, 900 sent from home for Christmas
dinner. This was apportioned among
the companies. The Second Louisiana
also had 81 900 for Christmas dinner,
but this regiment spent Christmas at
sea, having sailed Saturday at the same
time as the First Texas. Several Off
GERS and men took dinner in the city
with citizens tn ough there was no con-
certed move for spread for the troops
as on Thanksgiving day.

He tells an interesting story of when his

He says:

unable to move. The pain increased and

morphine into my arm to ease the pain.
My disease, however, gradually became

welcome release from my sufferings could

rub my leg.
"This continued for about four months.
Besides my regular physician also con-

SANTIAGO, Dec. 27.-Christmas has

most Of them prepare to hold their

Uuited States troops guarded the city
as a precaution against possible disturb

A THING OF THE PAST,

Hospital at Camp Poland Will Cease to
Exist in a Few Days.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Dec. 27.-Within
another week the military hospital at
Camp Poland will be thing of the
past. The army hospital train from
Fort Mcpherson, Atlanta, Ca, has left
with AZ sick soldiers. The train will
take these patients to Fort Mcpherson,
where they will be attended until they
have recovered. Six patients are left in
the hospital here. With a single ex-
ception these are convalescents who
will likely be released this week.. The
exception is Major David Hemphill of
South Carolina. who is in a critical
condition and who may not recover.

Conmissary General Eagan Objects to
References to His Department.
WASHINGTON, Dec. g. - General
Eagan, commissary general Of subsis-
tence, gave out the following statement
in reference to his contemplated action
on statements made by General Miles
concerning commissary supplies fur
nished the army:
General Eagan has referred to Gen.
eral Miles the published article pur
porting to be an interview with General
Miles in regard to the military supplies,
asking whether the statements attrib-
uted to him General Miles) were made
by him, or any Of them, or which of
them, or to what extent the statements
are correct. General Eagan does not
propose to discuss this very serious mat
ter in the public press, but has asked,
first, if General Miles avows or dis
ayows this interview, and has also asked
the investigating commission for true
copy of the statements that were not
sworn toy made by General Miles
before it. General Eagan has also
asked the investigating commission to
be called before it for the purpose Of
rebutting and refuting the statements
alleged to have been
Made BY General Miles
and published in the press; to an
swer these or any statements made by
General Miles, under oath, and espec-
tally and particularly to meet the al
legged charge of furnishing anything
whatever, under pretense of expert
ment. General Eagan is Of the opin-
ion that the proper place to discuss the
merits of this matter is before the in
vestigating commission, and before the
courts, civil and military, where the
widest latitude will be given to all
concerned; where the conduct Of Gen
eral Miles and the conduct Of General
Eagan, under oath, may have the full
est most exhaustive examination and
analysis, concerning any or all charges
that may be brought by either, to the
end that justice shall be done. In view
of this already inaugurated action, Gen
eral Eagan deems it unmilitary and i'm
proper to make charges against anybody
whatever in the service, but thinks the
law, military and civil, is ample to be
invoked in the cause Of truth and jus
tice. General Eagan contents himself
with complete denial of the statements
alleged by General Miles. -
