Commissary General kagan Objects -
References to His Department.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 20. - 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 Eagsn 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
avows this interview, and has also asked
the investigating commission for . true
copy Of the statements chat were not
sworn toy made by General Miles
before it. General Esgan has also
asked the investigating commission to
be called before it for tho 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 prstense 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 bs given to all
concerned; where the conduct Of Cen
eral Miles and the conduct Of General
Eagan, under oath, may have the full.
est, most exhaustive examination and
analysis, concerning any OF oil charges
that may be brought by either. to the
end that justice shall be done. In view
of this already inaugurated action, Con
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 a complete denial Of the statements
alleged by General Miles"

Satolli IL Coming.

ROME, Dec. 26.-It is said that Cardi-

early in the new year. At the Vatican
it is admitted that his eminence con-
templates such a trip, but all inquirers
are gravely assured that it is due en-
tirely to the urgent calls of private bus

martial may follow for either himself
or Commissary General Esgan. Sup
ported, he declares, BY the reports Of IL
regimental eommandsn and others,
General Miles is not at all likely to
make any r~etraction or denial, but ii
is understood he has in eou1se Of prep
aration q paper which ID intended to
substantiate the statement which he 10
reported to have made. It is evident,
therefore, that a very serious crisis has
been reached in the relations Of tho
major general commanding the army
and the commissary general. Friends
of General Esgan say he feels that there

When seen, General Miles declined to
make any statement whatever fer publ
cation concerning the matter. but it ID
understood that he will not retraet what
he has said. He has made a careful in
vestigation Of the beef question, and his
statements before the wal 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 10
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 q
may be deemed proper.

PHILADELPHIA. Dec. 23.-It 10 esti-

during the day six deaths were reported
to have occurred within the past "a
hours directly due to grippe and IL
other deaths were traced indirectly to
the same cause.
Reports received from Eastern Penn

an epidemic of the disease in those sec,

Paddy Ryan is throwing in his lot
with the lhstnamed team, and not only
as a player but more especially as a

ton.
From what can be learned y team

Hawaii is in course of organization. the
leading spirits being w. Prestidge,
Louis Singer, David Dayton, Jr., and
last. but not least. the Princes Cupid
and David.
1t is also affirmed that Mr.. J. q.
Wood, manager of the Wela IA HaO
club has shown an inclination TO join
the organization, and if he does, it will
go a long way 20 insure the success OF
the season.
Cricket will take a rest until the ar
rival of the next British warship in
port, the officers being OF the opinion
that a twenty-five months season is
quite long enough for any cricket club,
although Capt. Herbert says that so
far from any tagging of interest, he
finds it difficult to restrain the en-
thusiasm of some OF the members, who
emulate the example of Oliver Twist
by always asking for more.
AS regards the organization OF a
second or new II. \. a. c. (Honoiulu
Amateur Athletic Association. of
which scheme Mr.. H. L. Herbert is the
Originator, nothing can be done until
something definite is known about the
arrangements made between Gear,
Lansing & Co. and the Trustees of the
existing baseball association. The lease
OF the grounds at Makiki has still some
visable to defer action until the base
ball enthusiasts have made up their
minds about the matter. All the local
athletic and rowing clubs are exceed
ingly interested in the movement, and
it is so be hoped that Capt. Herbert's
laudaDie efforts, may prove successful
1t is contended, with a considerable
show of reason that it is utterly absurd
for the element interested in field and
acQuatic sports in "a small-sized city
like Honolulu to be divided up in
cliques, when the whole might be con-
trolled by central association with
special headquarters, so that visitors
more particularly may effect a saving
