BEEF INQUIRY.
Prof. Chittenden Says the Meat Was
Generally Good. rs

Generally Good.
Washington, April 1.-THE two pr1n-
cipal witnesses before the beef In
curry court yesterday were Prof. Rus
sell H. Chittenden, of Yale college, and
DR.. Samuel A. Currie, who was lieu
tenant colonel Of the Second New
Jersey regiment, which was stationed
at Jacksonville, during the war. Prof.
Chittenden is n Of the chemists Sc
lected by the government to analyze
the canned roast beef. He presented
his report, showing that the beef gem
orally, was good. No chemicals had
been found by him in it's preparation,
and it was generally wholesome. He,
however, expressed doubt as to wheth-
err the heat of the tropical climate
would not cause the fat in the cans to
liquify and thus render the food dis
pleasing to the sight. Col. Davis stated
that most of the cans from which the
samples were taken for analysis had
been exposed to the heat Of the tropi-
cal countries, some of the cans being
brought from Havana for the purpose
of test. DR.. Currie testified that the re-
%frigerated beef supplied at Jackson
VILE had on some occasions made the
men sick. He had made chemical
analysis of the beef which in n case
showed the presence of salicyclic and
in another of boracic acid. Maj. Lee
presented more correspondence be-
tween Gen. Miles and the court and
put in a request on behalf of the gen.
eral that nine of the $50 witnesses
whose names he had heretofore sug-
gested, be called, saying that they
would testify concerning refrigerator
beef and chemically treated beef. The
court did not Indicate whether the re-
quest would be complied with.

the price of graduated sugar to

1t is estimated that If there is no ad-

The charge that college professors
are impractical is sometimes very
practically d%isproved. A Western
professor tried the effect of electric
ty in an endeavor to thaw out a
frozen water-pipe. To his delight, in
exactly twenty minutes a full head Of
water was flowing in the house. The
pipe was heated to about sixty de-
grees Fahrenheit. The success Of the
professors experiment induced a gen
sral use of his method in the city
where he lived. A press dispatch de-
:lares that speedy relief "a afforded
without the tearing up of a foot of
pavement, and his fellow-citizens no
loubt have concluded that the pro-
'essor is something more and better
han a mere theorist.

Havana, April 6.-The Cuban assem-
bly, has voted to disband the Cuban
army and to dissolve. The voting was
Fl in favor against 1 opposed. The
muster rolls were left in the posses
sion of the executive committee OF the
assembly, who will facilitate the
preparation Of copies for Gov. Gen.
Brooke.
"The army question is considered
settled. AS the shadows of night fall
over the city, we finish u work. SO
is Cuba's future clouded and dark. l
take leave of you with sorrow, and my
last words are: May Cuba some day
be free and independent"
With these words Gen. Fernando
Freyre de Andrade, president of the
military assembly, closed it's last ses-
sion at Z o'clock last evening. The
whole meeting was calm and dispas-
sionate. 1t lasted four hours. Gen.
Sanguilly's fight of oratory, in which
he likened the members of the assem-
bly, to ga band of faithful workers,
devoted to Cuba's good, but finally
vanquished by uncomfortable condi-
tions," were received with applause.
The assembly ordered the %disbanding
of the army in accordance with Senior
Despaigne's motion, and entered upon
the details and methods of disband-
ment. A Few executive committee was
then appointed to attend to the rou-
tine work connected with the commits
sion of Cuban olucers, and this commit
tee will supply Gen. Brooke the copies
Of the Cuban muster rolls. d
Causes Relief I'm Washington.
Washington, April 5. :. The news Of
the Cuban assembly's vote for imme-
date dissolution and disbandment of
the army was received here with re-
lief and qualification. The prolonged
struggle over the payment of the Gu
ban army had begun to exhaust the
patience of the authorities here. The
administration now looks for more
rapid progress in the work of recon-
%struction of the island and less diff
Guilty in instituting reforms generally.

The Natives Coming in Freely-Ex-

New York. April Z. - James Creel-
mans special to the Journal from Ma
Mia says: Gen. MacArthur's brigade
moved out of Malolos to the northward
in the hope Of finding the main body of
the Filipino army and effectively de-
stroy1ng it. Earlier in the day the
Montana infantry and the Fourth cav
airy, supported by two guns of light
artillery, made a reconnaissance, but
encountered only rowing bands of reb-
els. A few shots were exchanged and
two of men were slightly wounded.
The natives are still pouring into our
lines around Malolos, seeking protec-
of them are wearing i%nsurgent uni
forms; some have only the trousers Of
their army clothes, their coats having
long since been cast aside. They all
say that they r hungry and do not
want to fight any more. They are
astonished to find that they are &C
corded good treatment and are housed
unmolested. Occasionally a native SOL
der is seen saluting an American Of
ficer, thus showing his military train
ing.
Terrible stories are related by the
refugees about the insurgent troops
committing barbarous outrages upon
women and looting property in all d.
rections. Black clouds of smoke on
the horizon mark the trail of wanton
pillage by pretended patriots. Our
troops are protecting property, while
the insurgents r destroying it.

A merchant of New York, whose
place of business was recently burned
out. has signified his appreciation of
the good work done on that occasion
by the firemen and the police by con-
tributing to their pension and relief
funds. In doing this he was actuated
by an honorable impulse, but it is ex-
tremely doubtful If the effect Of such
gifts is s%alutary. Private rewards for
public servants who have done moth
Ing more than their duty may conceiv-
ably have a tendency to betray them

circumstances which do not suggest

Commissioner-Genera Peck is much

by congress in the matter Of an ap-
preparation for the United States ex-
hibit at the Paris exposition. He has

art Of This Government.

Washington, April 8. = The cruiser
Detroit, which is now lying off La
Guayara, Venez., has been ordered
post haste to Bluefields, Mic, for the
protection Of American interests in
that quarter. On the way she will
touch at Port Limon, Costa RIGA,
where her commander will put himself
in communication with the United
States consul at that port, and where
he also may receive further instruc-
lions. She is also likely to make a
very brief stop at Greytown. Her
dispatch under hurry orders is at the
urgent request of the state depart
ment, to which American residents,
both at Bluefielas and Costa Rica,
have appealed iar protection of Ameri-
can interests. The arbitrary and ex-
tortionate policy adopted by Gen.
Torres at BluedeiGs, who, on more
than n occasion, has MADE himself
persona o grata to this government.
and whose restoration to power has
been followed by acts which American
residents resent aud protest against, is
the main for the vesselS's dis
patch. +
The state department at the same
time has cablcd instructions to the
United States diplomatic representa-
tive at Bluef1elds to lodge an ener-
getic protest with the Nicaraguan
government against the action Of Gen.
Torres, and a disregard of this pro-
test will be followed up by q more
positive step on the part of this gov
eminent.
In Costa Rica the American and
British residents are in trouble on ac-
count Of an insurrectionary move. 1t
is alleged that the insurgents are levy
ing forced loans on them, besides col
lecting exhorbitant and double duties
on imports.

Washington, April 6. Gen. Brooke
has been notified to suit his conven-
fence regarding the sending home Of
volunteers remaining in Cuba, and he
may retain them until the payment Of
the s. ,QOO,O 900 to the Cuban soldiers is
effected. Maj. Bellinger. quartermas-
ter at Savannah, has reported to the
department that there are no facili-
ties at Sapelo for receiving and quar-
antining troops and that the conditions
there are not fit for the landing of the
large number of troops which it is con-
teniplated to bring to that point.

AGUuNALDO OUT.

A Report That Gen. Antonio Luna
Succeeds Him.
Manila. April There are persistent
rumors that Aguinaldo, the insurgent
leader. has been s%upplanted in the con-
troll of Filipino affairs by Gen. Antonio
Luna. commander-in-chief of the Fill
Pine forces. Luna is described as be-
ing a typical belligerent.
A Spanish banker who was inter-
viewed expressed the fear that the
proclamation would not reach the
masses controlling the revolution be-
cause, he explained, the Filipinos at
Manila are mostly domestics and clerks
who have no definite opinions and the
wirepullers outside of the city have
undoubtedly intercepted it. The bank
er expressed the opinion that if the
proclamation had been issued on May
2, or ever on Aug. II, of last year, the
result would have been different. as, in
his opinion, based on twenty years ex-
perience here, the only thing that APP
peals to the masses is the gun.
The editor of Oceania thinks the
proclamation is the most polite docu-
ment ever published in the Philippine
islands, and that it is bound to con-
vince the wavering of the folly of
further hostilities.
An English merchant says the first
clanse, with reference to the estab.
lishment and maintenance Of Ameri-
a sovereignty and warning the reb-
els, should settle the question in the
minds Of every thinking Filipino.
A Scotch shipowner thinks it does
not leave any further doubt as to the
policy Of the United States, and that,
consequently, Aguinaldo must submit
to the inevitable, as the continuance Of
hostilities is opposed to the best inter-
ests Of the Filipinos.
