CHAMBERLAIN TALKS
CONCERNING THE B0ERS

Copyrighted, 1S9s by the Associated Press.
LONDON, April 29-Referring to
speech made by the Secretary Of State
for the Colonies, Joseph Chamberlain,
early in the week, explaining that the
massing of a large British force in South
Africa was due to the fact that the Beers
had erected forts at Pretoria and Jo-
hannesburg is regarded as a menace to
Great Britain. the speaker declares that
the speech was quite mischievOus and
uniustifiable as Captain COghlan's and
that it has given greater offense to the
Beers than Captain Coghlans gave to the
Germans, and Mr.. Chamberlain's indiscre-
tion was Just as useless as Coghlans.
In connection with the foregoing re-
marks of Mr.. Chamberlain another indi-
cation that the causes Of friction between
Great Britain and the Transvaal con-
tinue to increase is given in the announce
ment by Mr.. Chamberlain yesterday even
ing that Great Britain had informed
President Kruger that the dynamite con-
cession by the Transvaal was breach
of the London convention. The Daily
Mail, commenting upon this statement,
says: "Kruger's sands are fast running
out and the hour is approaching when
England must take action"

Never was a revolution swifter or more
complete than that which has transferred
the local government of Ireland TO the
hCme-rulers The first meetings of the
County Councils under their Nationalist
Chairmen were a great success. Their
business capacity was as striking as
their democratic thOroughness. Connor

Council, one OF the most adVanced OF ,l the

conducted business with such ability
that the UniOniSt minority Joined in a
vote of thanks to him.
1t is now rumOred that Chief Secretary
Gerald BalfOur's contemplated coercion
campaign against the United Irish League
has been abandoned, as it would involve
stitutions just established by law. Mean
while steps are being taken for an extern
sion of the agitation for complete home
rule and abolition Of landloTdism through

Another remarkable result of the recent
revolution was to show easily mat
sQuabbes among parliamentarianS can be
put down by the country. None of the
parliamentary sections gave assistance III
the County Council campaign-two of
these sections. in fact, actively took the
side of the UniOniStS. Nevertheless, the
people swept the field without troubling
themselves in the least with parhamen-
tartan disputants. 1t is felt the same can
be done at next years general election.

POPE LEO Is STILL
STRONG MENTALLY

NEW YORK, April "a cablegram
to the World from London says: Card
inal Vaughan, who has just arrived in
Rome, gives his impression of the
Pope's condition in a letter which the
World correspondent is enabled to send.
He writes:
1T is two years since last saw the
holy father. He then looked weak,
though full of vivacity and intelligence.
The only change I see in him now is
in his complexion-instead of being
white as wax, it is much darker in tint.
He may be a little more bent, but in
no other respect does he appear
changed.
During the last week the holy father
has been giving audiences and there
fore talking every morning from 10
O'Clock till l or 1:30 p. m, and he at
tends to business as usual l found
him extremely interested in all sub
iects on which we spoke and as full of
intelligence and apparently as little af-
fected by the infirmities of old age as
he was two years ago. His voice is
particularly strong, so he is we'll able
to make himself heard even by persons
who are rather deaf"

WADE BEEF COURT
SCORES GEN. MILES

Much attention is given to the charges
concerning the canned roast beef, and
it is stated that the testimony proves
it to have been wholesome and nutri-
tious where used in moderation and
under favorable circumstances. The pO-
sition 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 undesirabl
as a continuous ration. The fact is set
forth that the canned roast beef had
not been used to any appreciable eX-
tent before the beginning of this war,
and it is therefore regarded as a prac-
tically untried ration.
In view of this fact, the commissary
general of subsistence is roundly crit
icized for the purchase of the meat in
such extensive quantities. AS to the
character of the meat for wholesome
cases and nutrition, the reports of Pro-
fessors 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 those upon which he de-
sired 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 negIect tndn was lnclueHtdl "
the hurried preparation for the war:
that the inspection, while generally ac-
cording to regulations, was not always
up to the requirements; and that the
sickness of the troops was not to any
great degree occasioned by the use Of
either the canned or the refrigerated
beef.
On the other hand, it is explained
that General Miles himself did not re-
mort tha war that the Ieef.
either refrigerated or canned L
fit as a ration. Other officers VIII we
their testimony before the court Eere
found also to have neglected what the
court conceives to have been their duty
in this respect, and all are blamed for
this failure. But the court does not
think further proceedings necessary.
The San Francisco call., 1899-04-30

WASHINGTON, April 29.-The Wade
Court of Inquiry to-day concluded its
work in connection with the allegations
of General Miles concerning the beef
supplied to the army during the war
with Spain. The report was signed at
2:3O p. m. by every member of the
board. and soon afterward the mem
bers Of the court left the Lemon build
ing, 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 de-
livered it to Acting Secretary Meikle-
John Mr.. Meikleiohn Immediately seal
ed the document in an envelope and
forwarded it to the White House,
whence it was dispatched to the Presi-
dent in New York.
The report is about 10000 words in
length and goes fully into the questions
which have been raised in connection
with the army beef
The text has not been made public
and will not until after the. President
shall have read it. 1t Will then rest
with him to say when the report shall
he given to the puDllc. Inc Verdlct,
however. is known to be that the
charges which General Miles made be-
fore the War Investigating Committee
are not sustained in reference to the
refrigerated beef, although his cOnten-
tion that the canned roast beef was not
a suitable continuous ration is admit
ted
There is direct criticism Of General
Miles for falling to promptly bring to
the attention of the War Department
the reports made TO him concerning
bad beef. and several individuals" are
censured for failing to observe the pro-
prieties of their positions as command
ing officers in this and other respects.
The forecast of the report as made by
the Associated Press on the Sth inst.
was an accurate one. AS was then

FLORAL FETE IN
CHAR|TY'S CAUSE
Close of the Redwood
City Carnival.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

REDWOOD CITY, April 29.-To- night
witnessed the close of one of the most
successful flower Carnivals ever held at
this place, and by reason whereof the
kindergarten association treasury fund
has been augmented by several hun
dred dollars. Great credit is due the
ladies of the association for the sue
cessful manner in which the carnival
was arranged and conducted. Interest
in the fete grew larger as the end drew
near, until tonight the capacity of the
hall was taxed to its utmost to ac-
cOmmodate the crowd.
The exhibitors have taken extra pains
to make their display complete and at
tractive, changing the flowers every
day and rearranging their exhibits. NJ.
Lynch's large display Of sweet peas at
tracted much attention and was greatly
admired From fifty to seventy-fve
varieties were always to be seen at his
booth, each punched separately. The
carnations shown by the Krieg &
Goertzhaim nursery are one of the best
collections ever seen here some of the
flowers measuring three inches in di-
ameter, all perfect in development.
McClellan's display was probably the
contained the largest varieties of flow
ers, both growing and cut. Mrs Glen
nan. a local amateur, had a display Of
wild ferns that is rarely equaled. Mrs.
George G. Ross of Belmont, also an
amateur, deserves much praise for
her display, as well as for her gen.
erosity in bringing flowers for decora-
tive purposes.
This afternoon large wagon loads of
flowers were brought here to replace
those put up yesterday. After the COM
pletion of the exercises this evening all
the exhibitors donated their cut flow
ers to the association, which auctioned
them off in punches to the highest bid
der. Quite sum was realized for the
kindergarten An entertaining pro-
gramme was rendered, being distinc-
lively a kindergarten affair, as follows:

CLAIM TO HAVE EVIDENCE
RECRUITING STATIONS HAVE
BEEN NOTIFIED.
Belief Gains Ground That the Miss
ing Pasadena Man Planned to
Envelop His Departure
in Mystery.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

LOS ANGELES, April 29-Officers
and friends of the Starr family have
been diligently following to-day all
clews presented in an attempt to
fathom the mystery surrounding the
disappearance of Hillary S. Starr, the
superintendent of the Oak Knoll Ranch,
near Pasadena. This activity was slim
ulated by the rewards offered. The
ground was carefully gone over and the
search extended into lines that had not
heretofore been exploited.
The opinion has gained strength that
Starr left his home Of his own volition,
with the avowed intention of enlisting
in the army. officers who have made
a close study of all attending circum-
stances assert that a discovery made
to-day supports this theory. This is
embodied in the appearance of the
broken leather watchchain that was
found where the mysterious struggle IS
supposed to have taken place. The
remnant found bears evidence of hav-
ing been prepared beforehand, as 1t is
from the middle of the chain, leaving
the buttonhOle guard and the piece at
tached to the watch ring intact.
Lieutenant Hunt, who is in charge of
the United States recruiting station
here. says that no one bearing Starr s
description has applied for enlistment
there. for if Starr desires to enter the
army he must do so in San Diego or
San Francisco. A black mole on Starr s
back will lead to his Identification
should he have used an assumed name.
Sheriff Hammell will notify all recruit
ing stations and give descriptions.
While this theory is adhered to by
many others assert that Starr was as
sailed and that he has wandered off
and will die of starvation, and the find
ing of his bleached bones will some day
uDravel the mystery.
