New York, March 27.-Gov. Roose-

stringy and did not agree with the
men who ate II. When asked IL he
had reason to believe the refrigerator
beef was treated with chemicals he said
he never thought about that, but tile
meat seemed good and the men enjoyed
it, but IL undou utedly gave them the
diarrhma and he attributed their ILL
health TO certain extent to the
rations.
"Will you tell us" asked Maj. Lee,
what, In your opinion, is the value OF
the canned roast beef issued at Cuba
and elsewhere as an army raton~
81 wish to say unhesitatingly that 1t
was utterly unfit and unwholesome

was unpalata BILE, and at its worst it
was UNBEATABLE and unwholesome
No one had any further questions TO
ask the governor and the hearing was
closed. The court adjourned to Gov
ernor's island.

The administration at Washington is
