UNIVERSITY FIELD SPORTS
Annual Pentathlon is Rulod OFF in Chilly
Wind
NO RECORDS BROKEN BY THE ATHLETES
Mile Run Is the Most Exciting Event
of the Day and is Won by
Mnutz-summnrics of
the sports.

LINCOLN, April 29.-(special)-The an
nual pentathlon of the State university oc-
CURED this afternoon There was chilly
wind blowing which caused some discomfort
TO the athletes and the grounds were not in
good condition, SO that no records were
broken. Pllsbury the all around champion
in the last event, did not compete today
Brow, the strong man who came to the uni-
verslty from Wesleyan last year, was suner-
ing from lame shoulder and only entered
one event--the hammer throw-whlch, how
ever, he won with ease
In the 100 yards sprint r. d. Andersen
was a strong winner over a field of nine
His record today lacked three fifths Of
second of being as good as he made last
year, the slow time being due to the soft
condition OF the track
The mile run was the most exciting con-
test of the day. Mautz started out to make
the pace followed at distance Of fifty feet
by X. d. and w. L. Andersen. The other
contestants were scattered along behind
these but were not seriously in the race.
At the half mile Priestley made a manful
sprint and got ahead of the Andersen broth
ers, but the pace told on him and he soon
dropped out of the race. On the home
stretch Bob Andersen sprinted hard but was
unable to overcome Mautzs lead. The win
ners of the events were as follows:
One hundred yard dash: r. d. Andersen
first, 10 3-5 seconds; Pr!estley second, 10 As
seconds; w. L. Andersen and MautZ third,
Ii l-5.
Pole vault; Kellogg and Mouck, feet;

The three contestants receiving the high
est number of points in the Pentathlon this
afternoon we're: w. E. Andersen 1886; r. D.

men who will probably represent the State

Coal Miners on n strike.

sand coal miners of southern Indiana are
practically on a strike today because the
miners assert the operators have failed to
grant the increase due them. Six mines
near this city will be closed down, together
with the mines at Princeton, Jacksonville,
Petersburg, Hartwell, Little Blackburn,
Bonneville, Chandler and Tennyson. Fred
Dilcher member of the nationual executive
committee OF the United Mine workers, said
today the striking miners would be fed by
the state organization, so there is no fear
or destitution. The operators have given
out that they are willing to close down for
six months, as this is a dull season, and
some of the mines are already being oper-

been wholesome and nutritious where used
in moderation and under favorable circum-
stances. The position is taken that too
much of this article of food was supplied to
the men and that under the circumstances It
was unpalatable and found undesirable as
continuous ration.
The fact is set forth that the canned roast
beef had not been used to any appreciable
extent before the beginning Of this war and
1t is therefore regarded as a practically un-
tried ration. In view of this fact the COM
missary general of subsistence is roundly
criticised for the purchase OF the meat in
such extensive quantities. AS to the char
acter of the meat for whoesomenees and
nutrition the reports of Profs. Atwater and
Chittenden are quoted at length, sustaining
the claims in this respect. The instructions
of the president are followed closely in order
and all the points indicated by him as being
these upon which he desired that inquiry
should be made are covered
Accordingly the court finds that the meat
was not "doctored;" that it was the beef
OF commerce; that there was no more neg
lect than was incident to the hurried prep
aration of the war; that the inspection,
while generally according to regulations,
was not always up to the requirements and
that the sickness of the troops was not in
any great degree occasoned by the use Of
either the canned or refrigerated beef
On the other hand, It is found that Gem
eral Miles himself did not report during the
war that the beef, either refrigerated or
canned. was unfit as a ration. Other officers
who gave their testimony before the court
were found also to have neglected what the
court concelyes to have been their duty in
this respect and all are blamed for this
failure.
But the court does not think further pro-
ceedings necessary.

NUMBER OF OFFICERS ARE CENsURED

| WASHINGTON, April 29-The Wade
| court of inquiry today concluded its work
| in connection with the allegations of Gen
eral Miles concerning the beef supplied to
the army during the war with Spain. The
report was signed at 2:30 p. IN. by every
member of the board and soon afterwards
the members Of the court left the Lemon
building, where all the meetings in this city
have been held. Colonel Davis, the recorder
Of the court, carried the official copy OF the
findings to the War department, and In the
absence OF Secretary Alger, delivered 1t to
Acting Secretary Meiklejohn, who immed-
ately sealed the document in an envelope
and forwarded it to the White House,
whence it was dispatched forthwith to the
president in New York. The report is OF
about 10000 words and goes fully into the
questions which have been raised in con-
nection with the army beef. The text has
not been made public and will not be until
after the president shall have read 1t. 1t
will then rest with him to say when the
report shall be given to the public.
The verdict, however, is known to be that
the charges which General Miles made be-
fore the War Investigation commission are
not sustained in reference to the refriger-
ated beef, although his contention that the
canned roast beef was not a suitable con
llnuOuS ration is admitted. lHefe Is ulTecl
criticism of General Miles for failing to
promptly bring to the attention OF the War
department the reports made to him con-
cerning bad beef and Several individuals"
are censuTed for falling to observe the pro-
prieties Of their positions as commanding
officers in this and other respects.
The forecast for the report previously
given was an accurate one and as stated the
court takes the position that the testimony
is conclusive that both the refrigerated beef
and the canned beef were in good condition
when delivered to the government and con-
tinued so until issued to the troops, except
In especial instances. where the deterlora-
tion was due to accidental conditions in
transportation or TO the influences of the
tropical climate. The reports admit the
liability OF refrigerated beef to aint quickly
after removal from the ice chest.
No Trace of Chemicals.
The court finds the charges of "embalm-
ing the fresh beef to have been unsub-
stantiated by the testimony, and says no
chemicals we're used to preserve IT, It also
finds that it would have been impracticable
to secure beef ON the hoof during the Cuban
campaign. The finding is likewise in oppo-
siton 10 the assertion on the part OF Gen
eral Miles that the use of the beef was an
experiment.
Much attention is given to the charges
concerning the canned roast beef and II is
stated that the testimony proves It TO have
