SAN FRANCISCO Nov. 4.-The Examiner
says that the most sensational report of a
military board of inquiry ever sent to lhe
War department from this city was tor-
warded to Washington from the headquarters
of Major General Shafter few days ago

of criticism Of the methods employed by OIL

turned from the Philippines on the trans
ports Tartar and Newport on October 10.
Upon Major Rafter, the surgeon OF the
Twentieth Kansas volunteers, who came
back on the Tartar, the heaviest censuTe Is
laid. Colonel Metcalfe of the same regiment,
who commanded the troop ship. General
Funston being only passenger, is indirectly
referred to.

The board of inquiry which has so severely
arraigned the transport service was ap-
pointed by General Shafter two weeks ago

chief surgeon in the general hospital at the
Presdio. Colonel Grards desire for an In

condition in which he found the sick men
from the transports Tartar and Newport
There were about forty OF them and nearly
all were suffering from dysentery
