Thsir Report win Probably Not sus.
tain General Miles, Charges.
Washington. April 1s.-The Wade
Court Of Inquiry held three sessions
yesterday. General Weston related
the provision made Tor victualing the
soldiers during the war, and commended
that beef on the hoof could not have
been landed at Siboney. George L.
Taylor, Philadelphia chemist. said
he had detected the presence of formal
de hyde on the meat while on his way
to Porto Rico last fall as an oficer in
the First Volunteer cavalry. Captain
irvine, who was in command OF the
transport Panama. under Dr. DAILY,
when the refrigerator beef was thrown
overheard on the trip from Ponce to
the United States last fall, said he mad
asked for the board of survey which
condemned the beef, because of the
putrid odor from the refrigerator.
The court of inquiry has begun the
framing Of it's report 1t is regarded
as certain that the court will find
that General Miles charges that en-
balmed beef or chemically prepared
beef was sent to the army have not
been sustained. The position Of tn,
court is believed to be that the testi-
mony is conclusive that both the
refrigerated beef and the canned beef
were in good condition when de-
livered to the government, and con-
tinued SO until issued to the troops, ex-
cept that portion damaged In transport
tation or affected by tropical condi-
lions, and to these causes Of injury and
these conditions the chief causes Of
trouble will be attributed. 1t will be
shown that the refrigerated beef, after
being taken from the ice in the trop-
ical climate, spoils ::::ckly unless we'll
cared for, and that the canned beef
becomes repulsive in appearance and
soon unpalatable. But the court will
hold as the result of chemical investi-
cations by experts that the canned
beef is wholesome and nutritive. At
tention will be called to the fact that
II was used throughout the war by
our navy. and is still used by the
fleet. 1t is believed that the court will
criticize those officers who have tes-
titled that they became aware that bad
beef was issued to the, troops and who
failed to report their observations un-
til after the war had closed.

ity.
According to a we'll authenticated
tradition. however. they performed the
services narrated in this chronicle and
ended their days in happiness in land
they SO nobly served 1t is probable
that the historians Of the region have
confounded Robins career with that
of Polly Westbrook's outlaw lover,
Richard Smith 1t is well known fact
that this outlaw was only second to his
father in fsrocity. and that he ended
his days in Canada a fugitive from the
laws Of his country.
In conclusion it may be well to say a
few words concerning the fate of poor
Zadie Price. as they may serve as a
warning to lovers to remain faithful to
their plishted troth. 1t is said that
Caleb Shurker turned out to be fraud,
after all, and that his reputed wealth
was chimerical He treated his young
wife cruelty. so that she was at last
obliged to leave him and return to her
fathers home. where the sight Of her
old lovers happiness with his wife,
Polly Westbrook, caused her to 60 into
a decline. She died of broken heart.

States Philippine commission to make
statement as to what terms will be
offered the rebels II the latter will
surrender. Another branch of the
committee will approach Aguinaldo
With the terms and will endeavor to
persuade him to accept them. 1t is

members of the committee will dare
to personally confer with the rebel
leader. The committee includes sew
eral recently condemned to death by
Aguinaldo for petitioning him to cease
fighting.
Major General Otis has appointed
board, headed with Colonel Crowder,
to deal with war claims. Many such
claims have been filed, aggregating
millions of dollars, particularly as a
result of the Iloilo fire. General Otis,
