BEEF WAS NOT ENBALNFj
Gen. Miles Blamed by tb.
Army Commission.
ALGER CLElpe,
General Eagan Censured for Fxca..,
Purchase OF Untried Rations-N.,,
Packers ExOnerated.

Washington, May 9.-By directio,
of the president, who approves the 6nj
ings, Acting Secretary of War Meikla
john today made public the report AMI
findings of the military court appointsi
to investigate the charges made BY NJ,
jOr-General Miles, commanding III.
army, that the beef supplied to tRs
army during the war with Spain wa
unfit for the use of the troops. Tbs
most important features of the reno,,
are:
The finding that the generals find.
ings that the refrigerated beef va,
treated with chemicals were not estab.
lishsd; that his allegations concerni,,
the canned fresh or canned roast beei
were sustained as to it's unsuitablitv
for food as used on the transports api
as a long continued field ration; cen.
sure of General Miles for "error" in
failing to promptly notify the secretay
OF war when he tirst formed the opD.
ion that the food was unfit; censure d
the ommissary-general (then Genera
Eagan) for the too-extensive purcha:s
of the canned beef as an untried ration,
censure of Colonel Maus, of General
Miles staff; the finding that the pack.
ers were not at fault. and that The
meats supplied to the army were Of the
same quality as those supplied to The
trade generally. and the recommends
tion that no further proceedings will bs
taken in the premises.
The conclusion of the court advere
to further proceedings based upon the
charges is as follows:
sit has been developed in the cour:e
Of the inquiry, as reclted in this report
that in some instances some individu.
ais failed to perform the full measure
of duty or to observe the propretes
which dignified military laws CON.
mand; but the court is OF the opinion
that the mere statement of official facts
developed meets the end of discipline
and that the interests OF the service
will be best subserved if further pIO'
ceedings be not taken"

country around San Fernando Will DO
Swept of Rebels.
Manila May 9.-To clear the Filip'
nos out of Bacolor about five miles
southwest of San Fernando, will be
the next task Of the Americans. The
rebel general, Mascardo, has a force Of
quo men there, well armed and pos
sessed of plenty of ammunition. His
troops have never met American SOL
diers, and they think, according to re-
ports carried to San Fernando. that
they can "whip the whole lot"
Bacolor is well intrenched, and thou
sands of natives are working like bear
ers digging trenches and carrying the
dirt in baskets. The enemy uses hl'
rinemen for fighting only, but compeIs
the bolo men and Chinese men, and
even women, to labor necessarily
Inc rebel outpost is about mile De-
yond San Fernando, with a trench that
holds between 200 and 800 men. From
that point several volleys were fired
last night upon the camp of the Twen'
tieth Kansas regiment.
Neither Major-General Macarthur
nor Major-General Lawton moved to-
day, although each reconnoitered the
country in his vicinity or some miles
from headquarters, developing the
presence of small forces OF the enemy
IN the vicinity Of Laguna de Bay, the

NEGRO'S BIG FIND.
He Digs Up Bonds That Had Been Bur-

He Digs Up Bonds That Had Been Bur-
led and the Source of Much Trouble.
Cincinnati, May 8.-Buried treasure
in the shape of IL 1000 bonds, bear
ing unclipped coupons which add sew
eral thousand dollars to their value,
were found by Thomas Lawson. a negro
laborer, while digging in the cellar of
downtown department store on Sixth
street. The ground was formerly the
property of Britting Bros. piano man
ufacturers. In the tin box was found
a paper on which was written:
"These bonds belong to Julius and
Martin Britting, and are the result OF
years of industry and saving"
This discovery solves a mystery
which had been a source OF angry con-
tention among the heirs of Julius
Britting, whose sisters brought suit
against Martin Britting, a brother,
charging him with having concealed
the bonds. Martin denied everything,
but notwithstanding his denial a
judgment was rendered against him in
favor of the estate of julius for about
$4,000. The money was collected and
the estate distributed and settled. The
negro claims the bonds as treasure

DOOMED TO DESTRUCTION.
Half the Yukon Fleet Fast in the Ice
and Unable to EscaPe.

San Francisco, May 8. 8.-Advices from
the Northwest confirm previous reports
that nearly half OF the Yukon feet is
fast in the ice, and will probably be
destroyed when the spring freshet
comes. Among the vessels in danger
is the Sherman, of the Alaska Explcra-
tion Company. She is near Nulato,
and is on a sand bar in the middle OF
the river, broadside on the current.
Four miles from the mission is the
Dawson City, owned by a San Fran
cisco firm. She is fast in the ice,
with no chance to escape. The Gov
ernor Steneman, owned by Portland
capitalists, is about 25 miles above the
mouth OF the Tanana river. and she
will probably break up when the fresh
cts come. The May D is also doomed.
She is near Rampant City, fast in
the ice in the middle OF the river. The
Trenton is close to the May D, and she
cannot escape destruction. The
Clutco, owned in San Francisco; the
Seattle No. /, of the Seattle Yukon
Company, and the City OF Chicago.
owned by Chicago capitalists, are in
bunch a short distance above Rampa'
City. They will probably be crusheu
to pieces with the first cake OF ice that
comes down the river. The Robert
Kerr, the Seattle, the Sovereign, the
Tacoma, the Arnold and the John G.
Barr are near Circle City, and there is
little hope that any of them will escape
destruction. All of these boats were
engaged in general freighting and
passenger business on the Yukon be-
tween ST. Michaels and Dawson City.

CENTRAL AMERICAN AFFAIRS.
Hereafter American Interests Will Be |
Thoroughly Protected.


Thoroughly Protected.
New York, May 8.-A special to the
Herald ffom Washington says: Meas
ures have been initiated by the navy
department which contemplate provid-
ing constant protection for American
interests in Central America. AS a re-
suit OF consultation between Assist
ant Secretary Allen and Rear-Admiral
Crowninshield, instructions have been
given to Rear-Admiral Hichborn, chief
constructor. to fit out the converted
yacht Viking for duty in Central
American waters as expeditiously as
possible. The Vikings small draught
will permit her to enter the shallow
waters on the eastern coast of Central
America so that the American flag will
be flying constantly at Honduras and
Nicaraguan ports. The determination
to send the Viking to Central America
is the result of the communications
received at the state department from
Americans in Honduras and Nicaragua.
Acting Secretary Allen said that no
word had yet been received from the
Detroit, but it is supposed that Com
mander Dayton and Minister Merry
are continuing their investigation,
obtaining affidavits from Americans,
etc., bearing upon their refusal to pay
double duties on goods imported by
them into Nicaragua.

Capture of San Fernando.

The capture OF San Fernando was
made by the Fifty-frst Iowa, after a
gallant charge. General Hale led the
attack. He had two battalions of the
Iowa regiment, a Hotchkiss gun, and a
flank movement on the right wss
made. To reach the city the troops had
to ford two shallow streams.
Before the advance was we'll begun the
main body of rebels fed to the north
ward from San Fernando, leaving a
small garrison. These fred on the
lowans when in the middle of the sec.
ond stream. Although the rebel fire
was hot, the Americans were not
checked for an instant. With a yell
the lowans rushed up the bank of the
stream nearest the rebel rifles and be.
gan sprinting after the now fleeing gar.
rison. Heavily armed and accoute1eG
the lowans had handicap as against
the lightly clad rebels, and when out
run, many. of the Americans stopped
his quarry with bullets. This chasing
lasted through the town and almost a
mile beyond. Tired out and wihded
the Iowans returned to fight the flannel
consuming the public buildings from
the torch of the natives. and then held
the town until MacArthur's command
came up.

HAS HAD ENOUGH.
Aguinaldo Offers to surrender-He Ask,
for But Little.

Tor But Little.
Washington, May S.-Aguinaldo's
ENJOYS to the American Philippine
commission have formally admitted
the sovereignty OF the United States
over the Philippine islands and the sur.
render OF Aguinaldo is believed to be
close at hand.
President Schurman, of the American
Philippine commission, who has never
been optimistic on the problem, cabled
today to the president the belief of tn.
commission that Aguinaldo is ready to
surrender. He informed the president
OF the new plea for peace made by the
Tagal representatives..
Aguinaldo offers to surrender, but
makes, through his representatives, a
plea for certain assurances as to local
officers and government being given
the Filipinos. The conditions are of
minor consequence, as far as this gov
eminent is concerned. As result Of
the dispatch sent by Schurman today.
it is the confident expectation of the
president that the end of the rebellion
is near.
This result will not be obtained with
out some of the concessions asked for,
which have been recommended by the
commission, and which, by the cabled
direction of the president today, will
be granted. These concessions con-
template giving the Filipinos form
OF government modelled after that of
the United States.

Portland IL his home. owns the only home
no possesses there, and intends to return
there after completing work In Augusta.
1hs Portland man claimed >he was not
liable to taxation in Augusta, aud for
this purpose OF settling the mattsr went
to a lawyer. This legal gentleman said
the man was not liable to taxation in
Augusta. He can report to the assessors
In April that he is native of Portland.
II there Is any doubt Portland can be
communicated with and Portland can
collect the tax. but Augusta, when ind
ing his claim is truthful, II they doubted
