Of President Mckinley, will pledge

BAD FOR THE BEEF.
court OF Inquiry Hears Much DAM
aging Evidence Given by Sol
d1erD and Experts.

Chicago, March 22.-The government
court of inquiry examined two wit
nesses with reference to the beef ques-
tion-Dr. Nicholas Sem and Lieut.. Col.
A. w. Corliss. DR.. Sem entirely dis
approved of canned roast beef as an
army ration for any length of time,
and Col. Corliss told of the soldiers dis
like of it.
Chicago, March 23.-Oficers of the
Third Illinois volunteer infantry, reg
ular army men and chemical experts
rendered most damaging evidence
against the character of beef supplied
the soldiers during the war before the
inquiry board Wednesday. Not only
did some of the witnesses affirm that
the preservatives employed were dan
gerous to health, but individual in
stances were cited in which illness of
the soldiers was attributed to the
canned beef supplied.
David E. Fleischman. formerly EN-.
ployed as bellboy at Hotel Morrison
was the second witness called to the
stand by the board, and gave evidence
OF the experiments and investigations
made here by man who was a guest
at the hotel, and represented himself as
a quartermaster general.
lie said he went with this man to the
stock yards and saw him set fire to g
light gray substance under halves Of
beef in refrigerator car at Armour's
packing house, tagged for Tampa, Fla
tie said the man explained to him this
was done to preserve the meat. He pu.
his finger on the meat and tasted it, anc
1t burned the end of his tongue. There
was sulphurous smell in the car.
DR.. E. D. Murdock testified that ir
June, 1898, he examined refrigerated
beef at the stock yards and found i
treated with boracic and salicylic acid
Capt. R: P. Wainwright, of the Firs1
United States cavalry, said in Cub;
there was no complaint by his me1
about the so-called canned roast beef
1t was generally eaten by them. There
was general dissatisfaction, however
with it on account Of it's unpalatable
ness and nonappetizing qualities. A:
far as he knew all issued was eaten
There was no complaint about refrig
orator beef, which was considered ex
cellent. The health of the men wa:
very bad. None of the sickness, how
ever, was attributable in the opinion
Of the witness to the canned roast bee
or the refrigerator beef At times tn,
men were without the full ration, blu
not starved.
After several other witnesses hat
been heard the court closed it's session
in Chicago. The members left for tn,
east Wednesday night, and will meet il
New York at II o'clock Saturday morn
ing. After taking the testimony O.
Gov. Roosevelt they will go to Govern
or's island.

Declines a Pardon

Indianapolis, Ind, March 23.-Mrs.
Augusta Schmidt, who is serving ten
years sentence in the Indiana woman's
prison, has been paroled by Gov.
Mount and declines to accept her free
dom. She is in prison for the alleged
murder of Oscar Walton, a Cass coun-
ty farmer in 1894, and says she will
not leave the institution until the judge
and jury which tried her acknowledge
to Gov. Mount that she is innocent and
that they were in error when they
passed judgment on her. The state
officers say that it is one of the very
few instances in the criminal history
of the state where liberty has been Of
fered and refused.

ADDRESS TO Fu1p1Nos.
American CommissiOn Tells Them
They Are to Be Aided I'm Reach.
ing Self-GOvermmenf.

New York, March 23.-fhe Journals
Manila correspondent cables that the
address to the natives of the Philippine
islands, drafted by the American COM
mission in behalf of the United States
government and embodying the views
of the president, has been made public.
After being translated into all the ma
tive dialects. it is to be disseminated
throughout the archipelago. The ad-
dress assures the Filipinos of the inten-
ton of the Americans to develop the
powers of self-government in the peo-
pie. 1t explains that the United States
has assumed international obligations
which it must fulfill, and which make it
responsible to the whole civilized world
for the stable government of the Phil
ippines. The commission, it is ex-
planned, is to interpret to the natives
the purposes and intentions of the pres
ident toward them and also suggest the
establishment of such government as
shall suit the capacity and require
ments of the Filipinos and be consistent
with the interests of the United States.
The protection of the United States is
not to be exercised in any spirit OF
tyranny or vengeance; but, having de-
stroyed the Spanish power and accept
ed the sovereignty of the islands, the
United States is bound to restore peace
in the Philippines.
To this end, all insurgents are invited
to lay down their arms and place their
trust in the government that emanci-
pated them from the oppression OF
Spanish rule.
The majority of the commissioners
incline toward giving the Filipinos a
sort of tribal or provincial local auton.
omy, under central government
which shall be military until a purely
civil system is proved to be feasible.

The secretary's trip has two objects in

existing conditions in Cuba, and, Sec
ond, to obtain brief respite from the
routine of office duties. Whether the
trip will be extended beyond Havana
will depend entirely on circumstances
that may hereafter develop.
