VENTILATING THE
MILES CHARGES,
Continued from First Page)

Brigadier General ]. G.. Kent, who
commanded a division in the Santiago
campaign. said complaints of canned
roast beef came from the men-it SEEM
ingly nauseated them-but he took no
action, considering these complaints
unavoidable incidents of the campaign.
He understood much of the refrigerated
beef spoiled en- route from the docks
to the troops, because of the delay in
cident to transporting it.
General Kent, replying to Colonel Da-
Wis, said beef on the hoof would have
been preferable to refrigerated beef,
but he doubted very much the prac-
ticability of live cattle supply about
Santiago.
Colonel Charles NJ. Woodruff, Assist
ant Commissary General and purchas
ing agent and depot commissary at
Governors Island, New York, who was
prominent in army supply purchases.
testified that he bought a total of
s., 254, 600 worth of supplies in the first
six months of the war. He bought
between 100000 and 100000 pounds Of
canned roast beef at a cost ranging
from liz cents to IA cents per pound,
according to the size of cans. Princi-
pal dealers would bid monthly on it,
and when he received orders to ship
canned beef he would sample the beef
in the market accept and order it at
his discretion. All contracts contained
clauses providing that contractors
should replace any beef that proved
unfit for use. Each box contained
certificate of inspection and approval
from an official of the Agricultural
Department approving the cattle on
hoof and after the slaughter. Most CT
the beef was shipped to Tampa. The
entire supply in New York and the
entire country, together with 330.ooo
pounds brought from Europe. where it
had been shipped, was exhausted, and
the factories, Colonel Woodruff under
stood, were run night and day to meet
the extraordinary demand.

Pat McLaughlin's Celebration Of
Washingtou's Birthday.

Pat Mclaughlin languished in the
City Jail last night, and he has himself
and Officers Ash and Fitzgerald to
thank for it. Pat and his wife separ-
ated some time ago, but the old love
seems to linger in Pats heart. just as
in the days when he had Mrs. Nc
Laughlin at his mercy in his own (rent-
ed home.
This old affection got stirred up in
Pats breast last night, and he HE'D
himself to her mansion in the alley be-
tween N, o, Third and Fourth streets,
and had lots of fun for a while. 1t re-
minded him of former days and nights,
and Pat was giving unbridled license
to his emotions when the police swooped
down upon the place.
If the officers had reached there a
few minutes earlier Mrs. Mclaughlin
might have been able to round up a
chair or two to-day Pat was doing a

A BROKEN REIN.
It Was the Cause Of Runaway
and a Wrecked Hack.


There was a very lively scene at the
street terminus on Second street., near
the depot, last night. A hackman came
dashing along Second street with a
passenger who desired to board an out
going train, and as the outfit neared
the office of the street car company
one Of the lines broke
The team swerved to the right. the
hack collided with and broke one of
the guard posts at the outer edge Of
the walk, and then went plump against
the small building. Albert Katzen-
stein, the cashier, thought an earth
quake was on or that a cyclone had
struck the building. In passing under
the low awning the drivers head had
a close call for collision that would
have Drained him had the connection
been made
The frightened team was stopped at
that point. the passenger alighted
from the broken hack and tripped off
to the depot as if nothing had hap
pened.

ADJUSTMENTS.

At the Clunie Opera-house, at .:i1
this afternoon, Louis James, kathryn
kidder and Frederick Warde, three
among the foremost dramatic artists
of the age, Will present Richard Brins
ley Sheridan's comedy, The School for
Scandal" The element of poetic JUS
tice is very much in evidence in it.
The comedy is neither moral, immoral
or Immoral in its expressed signif-
canoe, yet beneath the veil Of art there
is the substratum of suggestion which
bears a moral with more cogency than
if it were aimed directly and delivered
intimately Though Sheridan's master
piece is comedy and laughter ripples
along the wake of every line, yet the
author has skillfully arranged his
sharply contrasted elements and works
out the discovery of the hypocrisy and
the integrity of honor. the reward OF
virtue and the punishment of vice. with
unerring directness. Its revival by this
splendid company is notable in dia-
matte annals, and has induced re-
naissance of interest in the life of the
famous dramatist and the beginnings
of the great comedy. 1t is the boastful
cry of many dramatists that their sue
cesses were failures on the first night.
Not SO with Sheridan and THE Senool
for Scandal" And more'S the wonder.
for a renewal of acquaintance With
the "reminiscences of the chronicleTs OF
Sheridan's time lead one farther and
farther in wonder at the chaos over
come, the procI estimation of the author
till the last moment. and the Distress
ing accidents which were overcome at
the last moment Although Sheridan
accomplished his masterpiece by con-
siderable sitting and thinking, he
says, during nineteen years, yet 1t took
coherency and concretion only at the
last moment. The comedy will be
staged as when given here a. few weeks
ago with elaborateness, attention to
detail and to the full strength of the
company, one of the largest and most
artistically balanced that has ever Wis
tied the city. Tonight "Othello' will
