EAGAN BECAME PR0FANE.
he Used Language in Commenting on Re-
fnsal of Commissarics to Accept His
Beef Not Admissible in Polite
Snnia+u

Washington, March 29.-At the beef
inquiry hearing to-day Major Black,
chief commssary general on General
Miles staff during the Puerto Rican
campaign, was asked by Major Lee to
detail the conversation he had with
Commissary General Eagan after his
tBlacks) return to Washington last
fall. II called upon General Eagan,"
said Black, Ito confer on the conduct
Of affairs at Ponce. He asked me why
refrigerator beef was not issued at
Ponce, and l replied it was because the
commissaries did not want it, as they
We're getting native beef. Thereupon
Eagan became excited and exclaimed:
God d-n them, they have no right to
refuse it. ! consider it the best beef in
the United States; God d-n them, I'd
have made them take it, +"
The court took recess until 2 o'clock,
with the understanding that Eaga,i Ia
appear.
The afternoon session began with
General Charles P. Eagan, late commits
sary general, on the stand. Explaining
his nlans in general Eagan said it was
his first intention to take refrigerator
beef, then, in case Of failure, to take
beef on the hoof, and last, for the gov
ernment to have it's own herd. Every
body, he thought understood his pref
erence was for refrigerator beef. His
principal reason for inserting the clause
stipulatng that the beef be good for
70 hours after leaving the refrigerator
was that he did not wish the troops to
know that the contract called for beef
that would keep Y hours, for fear it
would not keep so long.

In the same adobe building with the
store are the living rooms of Mr.. and
Mrs. Martinez and although the smoke
and flames burst into the rooms and al
most suffocated Mrs. Martinez, very little
damage was done in that part of the
house, owing to the efficient work of the
fire department.
The origin of the fire is a mystery. 1t
seems to have started under the counter
in the front of the store. The stock was
completely destroyed and the rafters
serving as the roof of the building were
completely charred as well as the fix
lures, doors and windows. The fire
gave the chemical engine a practical
test, and all who saw it work last night
pronounce it a very valuable piece OF
apparatus.
Mr.. Martinez is not in the city, he is
in TERRA Amarillo looking after a herd
of sheep he desires to purchase in thai
section of country.
