and not. in a way, perhaps, to demand
any great attention-but still 1t has
been stated that beef sent to Santiago
was prepared in some way with chem
1caiS to- preserve it. Can you tell US
anything on that head, or why any one
should use chemicals on meat when it
was apparently SO easy to preserve 1t
in refrigerators
Yes, l an tell you a good deal about
that" said Colonel Osgood. 1.-The meat
treated in that way was not the prop
erty of the government or of any of our
contractors. 1 was aboard the Comal
one day, and Colonel Weston chief
commiSSary, showed me four quarters
of beef hanging in the sun which he said
was process beef 1t was prepared at
the request of an inventor named Pow
ell, who claimed that he had discovered
chemical preparation that would keep
meat in a hot climate without ice. 1t
was purely private experiment, and
was not issued to the troops
II looked at it and it seemed to be-
perfectly good. There was 70 - old on
1t as on the refrigerator beef and il had |
no smell. I believe Colonel Weston |
tasted some of it. So far as l know he |
was the only officer who tested it," |
Witness did not say what Colonel Wes- |
ton thought of the process beef He |
continued: IT think Colonel Daily saw |
this meat. and probaly the fact that |
this beef was there gave the start to all |
this talk of chemically prepared beef. |
1t was purely private experiment and |
the government had nothing to do with |
it,"
In connection with Colonel Osgood's |
explanation of the process" beef ex-
pertinent it can be stated that the in
ventor of the chemical prsservative
brought the matter to the attention Of
the war department before the out
break of the Spanish war and offered
to sell the formula and process to the
government. 1t was considered by the
general, the secretary and
