The rumor that Miss Kuehne Bever-
fdge wifi soon marry James G. Blaine.
Jr., has been denied, although her
friends still confirm it and assert that
there is very strong personal attach
nent between the two.
When Kuehne Beveridge came out OF
the west at the age Of sixteen to take
up modelling In New York she aston
ished the metropolis with n bust OF
Cleveland, which was'a most marvellous
production. There was strength and
character In the work such as Is not
often found In that Of a beginner. Miss
Beveridge said at the time that such
merit as she possessed was wholly due
TO her mother, who from childhood had
given her every opportunity to progress
In her art.

GEN. MILES WILL Be TRIED
EMBALMED BEEF QUESTION.
Il &c Court OF Inquiry WIN Investigate
His chsrges-Beef Question Will be
Thoroughly Investgated-Repert to be
Submitted to the President.

Washington, FebS 6.-Indications are
that court OF inquiry will be ordered to
investigate and report upon the truth or
falsity of the statements alleged to have
been made by General Miles in which the
quality of the beef furnished the troops
during the late war was brought in aues-
ton.
The matter was discussed at some
length at today's cabinet meeting, and al
though no definite decision was reached
the consensus of opinion was that such
proceedings should be had. 1t was argued
If the packers who had furnished beef to
the army had fraudulently supplied the
article as charged by Miles, the country
had right to know it and if the charges
had no foundation the people had an
equal right TO know that fact.
1t was also agreed that Miles should
not be suspended from his Office as com
mander OF the army pending such an in
vestigation- 1t is not believed any action
will be taken, how ever, until the war in
vestigating committee has made its re-
port, which is expected within few days.
The cabinet also discussed the sanitary
condition of Havana and General Brooke
will be instructed to proceed as rapidly
as possible in his work OF renovating the
city.
The method which is to be adopted,
namely, court OF inquiry to pass upon
Miles conduct is taken to indicate knowl-
edge on the part OF the administration OF
what the report will have to say as bear
ing upon Miles charges.
General Miles on being informed of the
currently reported court of inquiry in
store for him said that after thorough con-
sideation he had decided to say nothing
on the subject.
