HAD WORMS And STUNK,
But the Oommissary Sergeant Was Com
pelledto Accept the Canned Roast Beef
Just the Same-Many Soldiers
Made Sick,

Washington, March 2.-The War de-
partment court Of inquiry held long
executive session before beginning the
examination of witnesses to-day. The
testimony of Clarence Walters of the
lSt Volunteer engineers of New York
was sensational. When asked what his
experience with canned beef had been
on the voyage of his transport to Puerto
Rico, he replied that the first can he
saw opened had worms in it, and a few
few minutes after being opened devel-
such putrid odor that it was impossible
to have it around. He ate some and
was made violently sick. The men of
his company complained of the meat, and
the commissary sergeant refused to ac-
cept it. Some meat was given the SER
geant major, who said it was all right.
The commissary sergeant was compelled
to accept it, but did so under protest.
Nearly all the men in his battalion were
sick throughout most of the voyage as
the result of eating this meat. Colonel
Davis. the recorder. ordered Il can
opened and asked witness if it was the
same he used in the service, Witness
said it bore no resemblance to the cam
paign article. The second can was
opened for inspection with the same re-
suit.
After reaching Puerto Rico, Walters
said he was sick for a week. He was
given some medicine and told he would
be all right in a little while. On shore he
got supplies from the Red Cross and
bought milk and eggs from the natives,
practically subsisting himself during his
stay on the island. AT least two-thirds
of his company were fully as sick as he
was from the same cause

Converted Spanish Gunboat Knocks the
Sawdust Out of Detachment of Ma
tives-Fresh Arrivals from the
United States,

Manila, March 2.-The former Span
sh gunboat La Guna de Bayo steamed
up the river opposite Macati this morn
ing and opened fire on the insurgents on
the opposite side of the river from Gen
eral Wheaton's brigade, with foul Cat
lings, two Nordenfeldts and one
FOUNDER. At first the insurgents replied
with rifle fire. but they could not stand
before the hail from the Gatlings. The
engagement lasted As minutes, when the
insurgents scattered, but as soon as the
ironclad withdrew the insurgents re-
turned again and opened a slow, annoy
ing fire across the river.
This is the hottest day of the season,
but all is quiet inside and outside of our
lines, and majority of the men kept in
the shade. The United States transport
Morgan City has arrived with wives of
officers and other women passengers.
But they were not allowed to land, as
the authorities consider conditions
ashore unsettled.

Bartlett Tripp Talks Of the Proposed
Government for Samoa.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. S.-Bartlett
Trip, American member of the Samoan
commission, while declining to divulge
the agreement reached by the three in
interested powers for the future gov
ernment of Samoa, made the following
statement:
''The proposed government provides
for white man as administrator of the
island-the governor general, in other
words. He will take the place Of q
Samoan king. Much of the trouble in
the islands has been due to the fact that
the natives have always had an elective
king instead Of hereditary king. The
natives realize that fact themselves.
Malietoa having resigned as king, that
troublesome proposition is now at an
end. BY having a white administrator
in supreme control, it ls the hope of the
commission that peace will be perma-
nent in the islands. There will also be
consular representatives, but their au-
thority will be more curtailed than at
present. The natives will be allowed
local self.government. The idea of the
commissioners is to let the natives gov
ern themselves as far as possible.
Mr.. Tripp admitted that Chief JUS
tice Chambers had returned to this
country with the intention Of resigning.
He denied that there had been any
friction between Justice Chambers and
the commission and insisted that all
along there has been the utmost good
feeling,

PARIS, Aug. e.-An the newspapers
published frequent special editions
which were eagerly bought by the wait
ing crowds anxious for every detail Of
the Dreyfus courtmartial. Some of the
streets were actually dangerous, notably
the Rue Mont Matre, where the news
boys were rushing in all directions,
hustling and almost ove1turning any
one and everything in their way.
While the papers scarcely had time
to comment on the courtmartial they
all endeavored to draw conclusions
from the different descriptions of the
personal appearance of the prisoner at
the trial. The Nationalist papers de.
clared Dreyfus appeared embarrassed,
while The Journal des Debats said:
"Neither his face nor his words evoke
sympathy. His voice sounds false and
his protestations of innocence are lot
convincing"
The Temps, on the other hand, said:
HE replied in a tone of assurance
and with a clearness and conciseness
which carried conviction"

A Curious Ear.


The catfish uses hislungs as an organ
Of hearing. The needless lung becomes
a closed sac filed with air and com.
monty known as the swim bladder. In
the catfish, as in the suckers, chubs
and most brook fish, the air bladder
is large and is connected by a slender
tube, the remains Of the trachea, to tho
oesophagus. At it's front 1t fits closely
to the vertebral column. The anterior
vertebrae are much enlarged, twisted
together, and through them passes q
chain Of bones, which connects with the
hidden cavity Of the air. The bladder
therefore assists the ear Of the catfish
as the tympanum and it's bones assist
the ear Of the higher animals. An ear
Of this sort can carry little range Of
variety in sound. It probably gives
only the impression Of jars or disturb
ances in the water.-Popular Science

LONDON, Aug. 9.-The Times CORE
spondent at Pretoria says: A gloomy
view is taken here of the whole situa-
tion. The general impression in Boer
circles is that Mr.. Chamberlain is fore
ing on war and that consequently it
will be futile to make advances.
All the dispatches from the South
African correspondents Of the London
morning papers take 1t for granted that
the secret session of the volksraad
will confirm the rejection of Mr.. Cham.
berlain's proposal, but leave the way
open to continue negotiations.
They also dwell upon the serious situ-
uation thus arising and upon the con-
sternation of the Uitlanders over the
resolution compelling them to fight for
the Transvaal, which seems to indicate
that the Transvaal government is ex-
pecting hostilities.
