DEMAND FOR LIETTENANCIEs.
Few Members of Congress Have Fail
ed 90 Put in u Claim.

Secretary Alser has been endeavoring TO
complete the list of appointments of sec
ond lieutenants in the regular army au-
thori2cd by the army reorga niZation bill
but so far ne mas not been successful. The
pressure is immense for these places, and
very few of the senator's and representa-
tives have failed to put in claim in behalf
of their constituents. The allotment of the
places among the states according TO the
representation in Congress has in a meas
ure simplificd the problem of making these
appointments, though in cases it has led
to some bitter lighting among the members
of the state delegations.
The policy mas been announced in such
cases Of making the selection 81 appointees
directly at the White House OF the War
Department in cases where the members,
of the delegations have not been able TO
get together upon S.atc. About eighty
names now on the list are resa.tttI at tbis,
time as being permanently 3l"ccd and
there is hope that the work Of selection
will be completed tonight, though even in
that case the publication of the na1r.es of
the lucky ones may be withheld until the
President leaves for the south

THE NEWS FROM CUBA,
Welcome to Mai. Guthrie Recruits
for Cuban Army.

HAVANA, March 10, II "a a.m.-The 7th
Army Corps is welcoming Maj. Guthrie
the mustering-out officer. Gen. Fftzhugh
Lee has assigned Mai. Blow of the 4th
Virginia Regiment to assist Guthrie in ex-
&mining the regimental books. The SOL
diers of this corps are dissatisfied with the
native beef furnished on an emergency
contract.
Owing to the delay in the arrival of the
refrigerator beef this local beef was sub

right standard. but it is the best obtaina BILE

The War Department Orders 1t to BE
Transferred.

The Cortez brothers. the Philippine ma
tives who have been here seeking the re-
turn of their property in the islands. have
empowered Egenio Lucas of Manila a
former clerk of the family, their agent,
and the War Department has cablej Gen.
Otis to turn over the estate to Lucas.
So far no report of the restoration of
the lands has been received here. Thu
Cortez brothers own an estate valued at
about half million dollars located in
Manila, Cavite Tondo Binondo and Mala-
bon, and they have been in this country
several months seeking its return to their
possession. The Hong Kons and Shanghai
Bank was first negotiated with to become
the agent in receiving the transfer but
that institution decired, on the ground it
dld not desire TO transact such business.
Lucas was then designated for the pur-
pose, and the Philippine owners here are
awaiting notification that the restoration
of the property has been completed

MAY ENLIST THE NATIVES
Authority Has Been Given Generals Otis and
Brooke.
FiIipinos and Cubans May Re Taken
Into the Military Service of
the United states.

The Secretary of War has decided to try
the experiment of utilizing some of the
natives Of Cuba, Porto Rico and the Philip
pines in the military service of the United
States. He has accordingly cabled autlori-
ty to Gems. Otis and Brooke for the en-
lstmant of one battalion of Filipinos ard
Cubans respectively in the forces under
their commands. He has also teleeraphed
to Gen. Hanry. commanding the troops in
Porto Rico, asking for an expression of his
views on the advisability of enlsting bat
talon of the natives of that island.
The matter is left to the discretion of
Gems. Brooke and Otis, and it will be for
them to say whether the services of ma
tivcs of Cuba and the Philippines, to the
limited extent indicated. shall be utilized
by the United States army of occupa ton.
Opinions here differ to the advisabilty
OF such course. the majority of officers,
however. are inclined to the belief that
such enlistments would have a desirable
effect upon the people directly interested.
Authorization by Congress.
one of the paragraphs of the army re-
organization act contained authorization
for the enlistment again of the volunteer
troops now in the Philippines. 1t was stip-
ulated that these troops should be re-
enlisted only for a period of time neces-
no case longer than six months
The question has been presented to the
War Department of whether or not it was
able under this provision to avail OF the
service of the officers of the volunteer regi-
ments well as of the enlisted men until
the troops can be replaced by regulars
The necessity for the inquiry arose from
the peculiar phraseology of the act on that
point. for it used the word enlist as ap-
plying to the officers as well as to the
private soldiers
The law officers of the department have
concluded, however, that the word was used
in broad sense, and that. therefore, the
President has authority to take all the vol
unteer regiments now at Manila and other
points in the Philippines into the service of
the United States in organizations, with
their full compliments of officers and men,
1t has been represented that the volun-
teers there are longing. to return to the
United States and to private life. The
officials say that this is a mistake. Gen.
Otis has reported that the men, volunteers
as we'll as regulars, do not want to come
home but they are anxious to fight: to get
chance to crush out the Insurgents. Near
ly every company has suffered through the
wounding of some of its members at the
hands of the sharpShoOters and they are
anxious to make the account even.

The Work of Yesterday.

The whole of yesterday was spent at the
stockyafds, and the going over of the 400
acres of floor space in one of the establish
ments was all the court was able to do.
The court began in the killing room.
The next place visited was the cooling
room. Here were found several halves of
beef which had been condemned either be-
cause the beef was badly bruised gave
evidence that the animal had had tuher
culoS!S. This condemned beef had been
placed by itself. and while the court was
present men came in to remove it to the
rendering tanks preparatory. 10 turning it
into fertilizer. The court examined these
tanks carefully, possibly in view of the
statement that the carcasseS passed
through them There certainly was no evil
dence of such passage.
From this room the court was taken to
the one in which the meat is prepared for
canning, and saw the men at work cutting
up the meat. The next room visited was
the canning department. Here the cooked
meat was brought in in huge caldronS. de-
posted on a platform and put into cans by
machinery. the cans removed and sealed
only a pinhole being left open in the top.
Next the cans We're put under an iron tank
where they were subjected to Il heat of go
degrees-the Sterilizing process.
Canned Beef Examined.
While the court was in this room Il num-
Der of cans of roast beef which had an old
appearance and which, it was said. had
been in Porto Rico We're opened. The
meat inside was good. and the members of
the court tasted it. but of course. express
ed Go opinion. Subsequently the court was
shown through the printing, packing and
other branches, and also the shipment of a
lot of refrigerated beef. Barring the kill
ing room. everything about the establish
ment was very clean.
After leaving the yards the court went to
the bureau OF animal industry, branch of
the Department of Agriculture and obtain
ed some information from Mr.. w. S. Devoe
who Is in charge. They read the law gov
quired as to the details of the work of in
spection. Inspectors are stationed in the
yards proper, and they condemn any dis
eased cattle they see. any that are un-
healthy on view. The inspectors at the
packing houses supplement their work by
examining the carcasseS after slaughtering
and throw out any bearing evidence of pull
