General Miles was asked Is that
canned beef meant for the army ration
He answered 1t was made a mart of The
army ration during this war. TO the ev-

nearly 200 O0O mounds of il replv Ia
this that il was not made a part of the
army ration in this war because il had
been made 4 part OF the army ration for
many years vast. II had been a part of
the army ration for many years, since
February s. 1883. and will be found pub
lished in general orders No. s of that

what right had General Miles 10 divert ;he
customs funds to the purchase of beef
