Excellent In Quality.
WASHINGTON, Feb. i,.--The report
submitted to the president last Wednes-

nous document containing about $4,000
words. Following is an abstract Of the
report:
The commission is Of the opinion that
no refrigerated beef furnished by con-
tractors and issued to the troops during
the war with Spain was subjected to or
treated with any chemicals by the con
tractors or those in their employ.
Secretary OF War--No evidence that

Perhaps the most significant utter
ance in the whole document so far as
concerns the discipline and efficiency
of the army is the following: Neither
the president nor the secretary of war
should have in command of the army
an officer who is not working in har-
mony with him."
