TO EXA MINE
NILES CHARGES
Court Of Inquiry Will Be Ordered By
the President.
CABINET CONSIDERS
1T ADVISABLE
True Inwardness of the Army Beef
Controversy, 1t Is Thought, Can
Be Reached in This Way, and the
CuIpability Definitely Fixed.

WASHINGTON, Feb. S.-The indications
are that a court of inquiry will be or
dered to investigate and report upon the
truth or falsity of the statements alleged
to have been made by General Miles, in
which the quality of beef furnished the
troops during the late war was brought
into question.
The matter was discussed at some
length at today's cabinet meeting, and
although there was no definite decision
reached, the consensus of opinion was
that such proceeding should be had. It
was argued that if packers who had fur
nished beef to the army had fraudulent
ly supplied the article as charged by
Miles, the country had right to know
that fact. 1t was also agreed that Miles
should not be suspended from Office
commanding the army pending such in
vestlgation.
1t is not believed any action will be
taken, however, until the war investi-
CATION committee has made its report,
which is expected next Monday. No
one outside of the commission IS sup
posed to know what the nature of the
report will be. The method which is to
be adopted, namely, court of inquiry
to pass upon Miles conduct, is taken to
indicate a knowledge on the part of the
administration of what the report will
have TO say bearing upon Gen. Miles
charges.
The common impression is that the
court of inquiry can be ordered only up
on demand of the officer whose conduct
is to be made the subject of investiga-
tion. While this 1s usually the case,
there is, however, reserve power in the
president to order such court. regard
less of the wishes of the officer con-
cerned. The authority is contained in
article No. lis of the articles of war,
which have all the force of statutes.
Miles, on being informed of the cur
rently reported court of inquiry in store
for him, said that after thorough con-
sideration he had decided to say nothing
on the subject.

May Get a Slice of Alaska.

CHICAGO, Feb. 3.-A special from
Washington to the Tribune says: If
the report of their subcommittee ls
adopted, as seems possible if not prob
able, a slice of Alaska territory, EN- brac-
ing the entrance to the Klondike, may
be ceded GreatBritain in the treaty to be
adopted by the Anglo-American COM
mission.
The subcommittee's report, it is said,
Skagway and Dyea under Spanish con-
troll, leaving to the Americans, however,
the control of the headwaters of the
Lynn canal, by which both of these
supply towns are reached.
The full commission has not acted yet,
but from the fact that the subcom-
mittee has agreed, it seems to be UNDER
stood that the forthcoming treaty, while
adopting the American theory of the
boundary line, will limit the location of
the interior coast in such way as
to be favorable to the Canadians and
bring their boundary line from the
North west of the White and Chilkoot
PoSSOo AOW IL W VIC A1O0bh VI IhO A1tCIs
The summit of the White pass is only
18 miles from Skagway as it is, and if
the Canadian contention is adopted, the
Dominion custom-house will be but a
short distance up the river, and the
American traders will have but little
more than the privilege of disembarking
goods from steamers on lighters.

ate it in the treaty, there will be pro-

In the Senate.

Senators Smith and Dufur this morn
ing presented explanations of their posi-
tion with reference to the reapportion-
ment act, which was approved by the
governor while they were speaking.
Both opposed the double distinction fea-
ture of the law.
A message was received from the gov
ernor, saying that nearly 10000 acres
of indemnity school land had been Sc
lected by the state land agent, and that
the demand for it has been 80 great that
only $4,000 acres now remained, the
price of which the governor recommend
ed should be raised. The message
was referred to the Judiciary
committee, with instructions to present
a bill in accordance with the governor g
recommendation. The house resolution
for investigation of the state university
without cost to the state, was adopted.

1t states that 6OO.o 900 spaniards are
ready to vote for annexation, and this
number would be largely augmented by
Cubans of wealth, position and influence
who do not wish to gee the revolutionary
party in the ascendency.
Members of the committee believe
that if vote were to be taken today on
the broad Issue, the result would be
decidedly in favor of union with America
even if the negro element in Eastern
Cuba was allowed to exercise a free
franchise.
Steps will be taken by the Spaniards
to put their views before the American
administration, as they believe if an
Independent government is contemplat-
ed in the near future, the trade of the
island will be brought to an immediate
standstill. In any case they think the
United States should retain control for
considerable period.
American capitalists here interested
IN the island concur in this view.

STARBUCK, Wash, Feb. BY an ex-
plosion about IL O'Clock this morning in
a cut about 1000 feet from the switch at
Grange City, on the line of Wallula ex-
tension, one man was killed and another
seriously injured. The men were work
ing on subcontract under Mason &

supposed, in tamping, they exploded
the Is sticks of giant powder used for a
blast. Harry Johnson, for Teman, was
instantly killed.: his head being COM

Oregon Weather is Mild.

DENVER, Feb Sit has been many
years since the Colorado railways have
had to contend with such conditions as
those now prevailing in the mountain
regions. The loss to the rail- ways in
this state taking into consideration the
business which is not moving and the
outlay of cash to pay the armies of snow
hovelers, is estimated at $25, ,OG0 day.
Not less than 1000 men, who have been
shoveling snow several days over 500
miles of road in the mountains have
been shut off from communications for
several days.
On the mountains thousands of cattle
are freezing and starving to death, and
nothing can be done to save them. The
weather bureau predicts continued cold
weather and another snow today.

A MISTAKE
THEY CLAIM
1t Was Not Intended to Extend the Term
of Service Until the Year 1902
BY Clerical Error They Say the
Figures 1902 We're Put Down
Where 1000 We're Intended.

SALEM, Feb. Sit is evident today
that the promoters of the bill to increase
the salaries of district attorneys have
become slightly alarmed at the result of
their own boldness. Such a storm of
protests have gone up over the clause
of the measure providing for keeping
the district attorneys now serving in
office till 1902, that it has apparently
been decided to eliminate that feature
from it.
Today the house judiciary committee
asked leave to amend the bill by cub
stituting 1900 for 1902, claiming the fig
ures were placed in the bill as the result
of clerical error.
The house devoted it's forenoon session
today to the third reading of bills.
Bill were introduced as follows: By
Donnelly, to fix the per diem compensa
ton of the commissioners of Harney
county at So per day for the time en-
ployed; by Whitney TO exempt thirty
days. earnings of judgment debtors from
execution, providing earnings are needed
for support of families; by Butt, to
amend the charter of Newperg.
The committee on fisheries and game
reported back the March bill, 80 as to
extend protection to prairie chicken and
grouse, and reduced the perquisites of
the game and forestry warden.
The com mittee on salaries of state and
county officers reported substitute for
the Nichols bill to place the clerk of the
supreme court under salary of $4,000,
by making provision for two deputies
at $75 and $50 per month and increasing
file fees.
A communication was received from
the governor relative to public lands,
like that received by the senate, and re-
ferred to the committee on public lands.

New Form of Ghetto.

According to a Russian journal, a
new but modffied form of ghetto has
been created, this time in Krements-
chug, and the edict defining the Jewish
quarter has perforce been issued by the
rabbi himself. 1t appears that on
Hebrew -Sabbaths and festivals so many
Jews take walks in the principal streets
that they dc not leave sufficient room
for the Russian. officers and their wives.
Having summoned the Rabbi, the COM
mander-in-cfrief Of the garrison de-
clared that such irregularities could not
be permitted to continue, and the head
of the synagogue consequently recon-
mended his people to confine their
promenading to two particular streets.

stance is far more important than APP
