EMBALMED BEEF IN HAVANA.

Captain Gaines Refuses to Sign Re-
celpt For Supplies.
Havana, April 7.--Captain Neil Gaines
in charge of the relief of the destitute
of Havana, and provost of this city, has
declined to give receipt and thus make
himself accountable for $4,000 cans of
beef, 100000 cans of tomatoes and
quantities of dried apples and other
stores, knowing that part of these pro-
visions are spoiled. The department in
spector, by General Ludlow's order, in
vestigated the matter and found enough
rotten meat to warrant asking for the
appointment of a board of survey. In
this connection it is asserted that Major
Mulliken's clerk, Benson, told Captain
Gaines that half the contents of the
warehouse had been assorted before
General Ludlow had time to order a
survey board.
Chief Commissary Smith is reported to
have instructed Gaines about Feb. 20
that there was no need to ask for the
appointment of boards of survey in the
case of tainted meat, but to destroy it,
as goods so disposed of would be re-
placed. whereupon Gaines destroyed 400
cans. The packers are said to be glad
to replace damaged meat with good
meat.
1t is claimed that the refrigerated

cago firm to the United States troops
at Marianao and Havana, is in part un-
fit for food. For instance, it is asserted
that of about 335 pounds Of the meat serv-
ed yesterday to the commissaries Of the
Third battalion Of the Second engineers,
covered with canvas, from 10 TO 20 per
cent Of the meat was spoiled and had
to be trimmed off. The same thing, It
is added, occurs every morning at all the
camps supplied with this meat.
Washington, April THE arraign-
ment of a large amount Of the canned
beef supplies at Havana, of which, it
is charged. 400 cans Of tainted beef have
just been destroyed by commissary Of
ficials, was followed today by an order
from the war department which may re-
suit in an investigation. Acting Sccre-
tary Mekleiohn, when shown the press
dispatch about the complaints and the
destruction of spoiled meat on two oc-
casions without board Of survey for
malities, stated that General Brooke
will be requested to make a full and
thorough investigation.

Keator Reform Bill.

Ballot reform made some progress,
when the Keator bill was passed by
the House. This kill has yet to run
the gauntlet OF the Senate and the
Governor, before it can become the
law of the state. The remaining
time Of the Legislature is so short
that if the people are to have any re-
lief in this direction, the bill must be
acted upon at once, otherwise ballot
reform will be put off for two years or
more.
1t is possible that factional quarrels
in the Legislature may cause the de-
feat of such reform, and if such
should prove to be the case it will be
a public loss That there is a demand
for such reform cannot be denied.
Almost every Legislature for the last
ten years has had something to do,
more or less, with the reforming of
our ballot laws. Each time that a re-
form is made it is largely in the direc-
tion of placing the people more Sc
curely in the power of the politicians
rather than placing the politicians in
the power Of tne people The right
of the citizen to express his choice at
the polls is unquestioned, but his
ability to do so is very much ham
pered by the present cumbersome
ballot sheet.
To vote for the regular nominee OF
a party, however unfit he may be,
is made easy by the party circle, while
to vote for the best man on the ticket
is made as difficult as possible If the
ballot was such that each candidate
must be voted for separately the peo
pie of Shenandoah would have an op
portunity of choosing a Council anC
School Board Of capable and faithful
servants.
Under the present law, a good mar
at the head Of the ticket for Burgess
Receiver of Taxes or other office
very often pulls through unworthy
candidates for Councils, who are il
the same column. Many people ar,
afraid to split their ticket for fear o
destroying their ballot.
1t is hoped that the Senate will la!
aside partisan and factional feeling

MISSIONARIES IN CHINA.


The Dowager Empress Insists That
They Must Be Treated Kindly.
Washington, April limited States
Minister Conger, at Pellin, has supplied
the state department with a copy Of a
proclamation posted at Tien Tsin rela-
tive to the treatment of missionaries in
China. In this edict, issued on the "2Ttb
of 10th moon" the empress dowager re
cites the fact that Christian move
ments had taken place in many prov
inces, and declares that these have all
been based on a false sentiment. She
wishes the people to understand that the
teaching of Christianity is permitted in
China, and that the preachers are to be
treated as good citizens. The empress
declares that a good man, whether n
Christian or not, will obey the principles
of being honest and true to others,
wherefore she desires her people to treat
foreigners as their own countrymen,
and avoid all misunderstanding with
them. She commands the viceroys and
officials in the provinces to emphasize
her sincerity by exerting themselves 30
suppress all agitation among the people
before any anti-Christian prejudice is
displayed.

Santiago de Cuba, April There are
now % bandits in the Santiago military
prison. Major General Wood, the mill
tary governor, is actively suppressing
disturbances from this source. On Wed
nesday four bandits from San Luis and
three from Guantanamo were brought in.
There is not little excitement over the
operations of the outlaws, and rumors
are in circulation regarding troubles in
the district of Holguin, but the present
efforts of the military authorities will
soon assure safety in all parts of the
province. There is no foundation for
the report that the Cuban General Jose
Miro has been in any way involved in
the disturbances.

New Orleans April IA letter to The
Picayune from Bluefclds, Nicaragua,
dated March 81, says: General Torres,
the special agent Of President Ielayn,
yesterday again notified the merchants
they would have but - hours TO again
pay the duties which had been paid to
the treasurer OF Nicaragua who served
after the revolution began. Torres also
undertook to prohibit the American con-
sular agent from cabling to Washington
or the president Of Nicaragua. He is in
charge of the telegraph wires which lead
TO both the capital and San Juan del
Sur, the cable station.
The American consul, after discover
ing that it would be impossible to So
cure satisfactory information from Toc-
res, withdrew with the American mer-
chants who accompanied him to the pal
ace. At this meeting Torres also de-
clined to state what steps would be
taken to force the American merchants
to submit to double charges.
A vessel was chartered promptly and
after considerable difficulty n clearance
was secured from Torres and this vessel
sailed for Port Lmon, Costa Rica, with
dispatches for the government. The
consul, in the dispatch, asks that at
least two warships be sent to Bluefelds
at once.
The next move Torres made was to
issue a decree doubling the duties, not
withstanding the fact that the schedule
Of duties for this section of the republic
