BEEF REPORT is IN,
miles and other Omoors Are severely
Criticised.

NNiNlolhou
WASHINGTON, May 1.-The Wade
court Of inquiry has concluded IT'S
work IN connection with the allega'
lions OF General Miles concerning tho
beef supplied 10 the army during the
war with Spain
The verdict Is that the charges
which General Miles made before the
war Investigating commission are not
sustained In reference TO the refriger-
ating beef, although his contention
that the canned roast beef was not a
suitable continuous ration Is admitted
The court finds the charges OF 'ena-
balming" the fresh beef TO have been
unsubs tantiated by testimony, and
says no chemicals were used TO pre-.
serve II, IL also lnds that " would
have been impractloable TO secure beef
on the hoof for tho Cuban campaign
The finding is likewise In opposition
TO the assertion that the use Of the
beef was an experiment,
The fact is set forth that the canned
foast beef had not been used TO any
appreciable extent before the begin
ming OF this war and II Is therefore
regarded as a practically untried ra-
ton. In view Of this fact, the COM
missary general OF subsistence Is
foundly criticised for the purchase OF
the meat In such extensive quantities,
Accordingly tho court finds that the
meat was not 'doctorcd;" that II was
the beef OF commerce; that there was
no more neglect than was incident to
the hurried preparation for the wari
that the inspection, while generally
according TO regulations, was not al
wuysup TO the requirements and that
the sickness OF the troops was not 70
any great degree occasioncd by the
use of either the canned or the refrig-
Grated beef,
On the other hand, II Is found that
General Miles himself did not report
during tho war that the beef, either
refrigerated or canned, was unfit as
ration, Other officers who give their
testimony before the court were found
also to have neglected what the court
conceives to have been their duty in
this respect, and all are blamed for
this failure,
But the court does not think further
proceedings necessary,

LONDON, May 1,-Members OF tho
Filipino juntl here made tho state
ment to-day that the peace ncgotia-
tions betwsen the United States au-
thorites at Manila and General Luna
were unofficial In character. General
Luna, the junta asserts, does not rep
resent Aguinaldo's government 1t Is
further asserted by the junta that Sc
cret negotiations between Dean G.
Worcester Of the United States Phil
ippine commission and representa-
tive of Agulnaldo have been in prog
ress since before the attack on Malo-
los, The following conditions, 1t is
alleged, were proposed by the Amcri-
cans after the capture of Malolos;
1.-The Americans to issue proclama-
ton granting the Filipinos self'gov-
eminent and political, civil and re-
ligious rights similar to those enjoyed
by the people OF Canada; the / Iipinos
to control international mercantile
relations; Americans and Filiplnos
to enjoy equal rights in tho
islands, Manila to remain in
the possession of the United
States until Congress decides other
wise; the American flag to fly over
the capitals of the islands and in the
most prominent positions along with
the Filipino flag, except at Manila,
where only the American flag shall dyi
all vessels to fly the American flag
with that of the Filipinos the Roman
Catholic clergy to be under the same
administration as in the United
States; Spanish clerical direct inter-
vention TO b. abo.ished hospitals and
schools formerly administered by the
orders to be handed over to the gov
eminent, the orders TO retain only
their present town property; the secu-
lar clergy to retain their property"
The junta asserts that Aguinaldo,
in view Of those proposals, withdrew
from Malolos, but that General Otis's
proclamation, after the occupation Of
Malo.os, failed to graut self-govern-
ment upon the proposed lines. This,
it is further asserted, caused the hos
