s Washington, April 2l. The war de-
partment officials have been compelled
TO resort TO the use Of canned roast
beef for the subsistence of the army in
the Philippines. This is due to the fact
that it is absolutely essential that the
soldiers be served with fresh meat, and
because of the imposstbility Of provid-
shoof under the existing conditions
When the bulk of the army was located
near the seashore and at easily accessi-
BILE points there was no difficulty in
providing them with fresh meats, but
the conditions are now changed and the:
army is scattered among hundred and
sixty posts in various parts of the
Archipelago, a great many of them at a
considerable distance from the nearest
Shipping point. There are no cattle

the requirements. The suggestions for
its use came originally from the sub
sistence officers in the Philippines and
the chief conmissary officer at Manila
recently cabled requisition for the
immediate delivery of about a hundred
thousand cans of roast beef and SUBJ
sequent deliveries at the rate Of $4,000
cans a month. Acting Commissary
General Weston presented the matter
to the secretary OF war with a strong
enlargement Of the proposition. AS a
measure Of extreme caution Secretary
Root decided to get personal opinion
from Gen. Otis before taking final
action. "A cable message OF inquiry
was forwarded at once and Gen. Otis
reply was received yesterday. Its
text was not made public but its gem
eral character may be clearly inferred.
from the fact that instructions have
been sent to Col. Alexander, the COM
missary officer at Chicago. to arrange
for the immediate dispatch of large
quantity OF roast beef to San Fran
cisco for shipment to Manila by the
first available steamer. Special pre-
cautions will be taken to secure the
best quality OF beef and to insure its
proper care and preservation at all

No I-lti,naru,n as Yet.

Washington, April u .ssecretary Hay
returned to Washington from New
York. An accumulation of depart
mental business awaited him, but noih-5
ing in the way of an ultimatum di-,
rected to the Turkish government was
included in the mass of papers upan his
desk. II is apparent that tho. deter
mined upon positive action in the#coi-
lection of its just claims against the
Turkish government, the state depart
naent is proceeding deeorously and with.
due precautions against being led into
the assumption Of any position which
1T cannot maintain.
The approval, Which the stateBdepart-
ment.s latest action seems to have re-
8ceived in Europe was anticipated, it
being realized here that several of the
continental powers having claims SINH
lar to our own against Turkey, being
themselves prevented from initiating
any forcible demand upon the Turkish
government by reason of the jealousy
of their neighbours are entirely willing
that the United States government
shall act as a pioneer in this matter
and clear the Way for a prosecution of.
their own just claims.
In regard to the proposed arbitrary
increase of 3 per cent in the customs
dues which Turkey seeks TO make in
defiance to the joint protest of
the European powers, 1t APP
pears that our government is
lending its moral support to this pro-
test, altho not Joining with the others
lin the combined note.
Ali Ferrough Bey, the Turkish min
lister. insists that an amicible settle
ment can be arranged and repeats his
statement already published that in
view Of the high esteem in which he
was held by the sultan and the fact Of
his acting in a diplomatic capacity.
Minister Straus was not justified in
making the assertion that the sultan
mad broken his promise in regard to
the settlement OF the claims.
