THE MEAT WAS ALL RIGHT.
ROANOKE SOLDIERS FEARS ARE
GROUNDLESS.
All the Troops Went Aboard When Or
dered--What a Man with Experience
Says About 1t,

The Roanoke sailed yesterday at
2:30 and despite the vigorous kick some
of the soldiers were making at the meat
supplies aboard and the panic they had
worked themselves into, they all went
aboard when ordered without any
trouble. They were too late in notify
ing the Board of Health, to get an in
spector down to inspect the meat to
see if their fears had any basis in fact.
But there seems to be every evidence
that the meat supplies were all right
A gentleman who crossed the Paci-
fic on one of the early and crowded
transports, and also came down on the
Roanoke, speaking of the kick of the
soldiers on the latter vessel at their
fare, said:
"They ought to consider themselves
in luck. The Roanoke is a passenger
ship, not a transport On the trans
ports the boys were crowded between
and below decks in hunks. They were
not allowed on deck aft To get their
meals they had to stand in line with
their tin cups and tin plates and then
sit on the edge of a bunk or on the
deck or anywhere to eat it. They had
to wash their plates, cups and knives
and forks themselves in hot sea water,
if you know what that means, and dry
them the best way they could. They
got no delCaCies or desserts. To wash
themselves they mad nothing put SAT-
water and no towels.
THE men on the Roanoke had state
rooms with running fresh water, fine
soap and plenty of towels. They ate
in the ships dining saloon seated at
tables, with white tablecloths and nap
kins, silverware and table china. They
were served by walters. They had two,
three and four courses at each meal,
including delicacies and desserts They

occasionally that didn't suit them, 1t
was no more than would happen to
passengers occasionally on a passen-

kick coming, and in comparison WITH
what the boys got on the regular trans
ports, and what they will get in Ma
