PROMPT BURIAL
Was Given the Embalmed Beef Issued
to Chahee's Men.

Washington, April 12.-Gen. A. K.
Arnold who was in command of the
second division Seventh army corps,
during the Spanish war, was before the
court of inquiry today. He stated that
at Jacksonville, as a rule, the fresh beef
was acceptable, but that there were oc-
casional complaints that it was tainted
especially during the hot weather of
last summer. These complaints came
at times every two or three days. There
was also some complaint concerning the
potatoes, onions and other food. He
did not attribute the sickness of his
command to the food supply. He did
not remember that Lieutenant Colonel
Currie of the Second New Jersey had
ever made complaint of the food sup
piled He had not suspected that the
meat was chemically treated.
Gen. Adna r Chaffee who command
ed brigade at Santiago gave the de-
canned roast beef at the latter place.
He said the canned beef had been sent
there from other points in the West
Indies for distribution to the destitute
Cubans and that he had distributed
probably !, 500 600 pounds of it. He had
not heard any complaint about the
meat until q few weeks ago when
newspaper reporter had told him that
10000 cans had been thrown into the
sea because bad. He had Immediately
reported to Cen Brooke and asked for
an inspection. This was ordered with
Gen. Ernest at the head of the board.
This board found that of the so 900 ra-
tions remaining on hand, about l $500
per cent was bad. There was also con-
sidera BILE quantity of tomatoes and
canned fruit which was not good.
Gen Chaffee also testified concerning
the meat supply to his command during
the Santiago campaign. He believed
the refrigerator beef to be perfectly
good but while this was true the Off
GERS and men would not eat it. They
rejected it almost wholly as being
spoiled. 1t was generally received in
camp by 8 o'clock in the morning and
was generally buried a few minutes af-
ter it was received. This was due large
ly, as he thought, to the fact that the
men were sick. He had demonstrated
with them because he thought they
needed the change of diet, but they
would not have it; he kept the meat un-
til the afternoon and then found it
wholesome and sweet. The beef was
covered as a rule with a greenish tinge.
This could be easily scraped off and
when thus treated the meat was good.
AS to the canned roat beef he had
heard neither complaint nor commenda-
ton. He had eaten the canned beef
but once. He found it unpalatabIe, too
fresh in taste, but he did not consider
it as unwholesome.
At the conclusion of Gen. Chaffee's
testimony the court recessed.

NEW YORK, Sept. ga special TO
the Herald from Washington says:
No official confirmation has been re-

ton is hourly expected, however, and
the authorities are awaiting it with
much interest.

The Panay is commanded by Ensign
Laninig. who was previously attached.
Lieutenant Joseph Owman was
transferred to the Mariveles from the
Helena. 1t is evident from Admiral
Watson's dispatch that he is maintain
ing a sharp watch for filibusters. The
fact that efforts are being made to send
in such supplies seems to indicate that
the insurgents have no intention of
yielding.

Three attempts have been made to
