Court of Inquiry Arraigns Scx'eral Ofl
in Authority.
WASHINGTON , May 8. By d
tion of the president , who appr
the findings , Acting Secretary of
Meiklejohn yesterday made public
report and findings of the mili
court appointed to investigate
changes made by Major General M
commanding the army , that the
supplied to the army during the
with Spain , was unfit for the use oi
troops.
The mcst important features of
report are : The general's allegat
that the refrigerated bsef was tre
with chemicals v/ere net establish
his allegatcins concerning the cai
fresh cr canned roast beef were
tained as to its unsuitability for

when first formed the opinion that
food was unfit ; the commissary ge
al ( then General Eagan ) is ceus
for the too extensive purchase of
canned beef as an untried ration ;
onel Maus of General Miles' stal
also censured. The finding st
that the packers were not at fault
that the meats supplied to the a
were of the same quality as those ;
plied to the trade generally , and
recommendations made that nether
ther proeedings be taken in the pi
ises.
ises.The conclusion of the court adv
to further proceedings based upon
charges is as follows :
It has been developed in the co
of the inquiry , as recited in this
port , that in some instances some
dividuals failed to perform the
measure of duty or to observe
proprieties which dignify high E
tary command , but the court is of
opinion that the mere statement in
official report 01 the facts develc
meets the ends of discipline and i
the interest of the service will be
subserved if further proceedings
not taken.
There is more or less criticise
General Miles in various parts of
report. Probably the mo&t direct
stance is the one which states 1
beyond the criticism of officers fc
elsewhere in the report :
The court finds that against ri
of the officers commanding corps ,
visions , brigades and regiments
their staff officers should charge
guilty be brought. The court i
finds that the major general comma
ing the army had no sufficient jus
cation for alleging that the refri ;
ated beef was embalmed or was u
for issue to troops. It also finds 1
he committed an error in that , li
ing belief or knovledge. as clain
that the food was unfit ; that it can
sickness and distress ; that some o
was supplied under the pretense of
periment ; that other beef was i
balmed , he did not immediately rer '
such knowledge or belief to the 'i
retary of war to the end that a pro
remedy might be promptly appliei
The censure of Cclonel Maus ,
specter general on General Mi
staff , is based upon his failure to i
attention to charged concerning
beef at Chickamauga contained ii
report of inspection made by Decor
( or Major ) Daly on October 2G 1 ;
in which he stated his belief that
beef was chemically treated.
"The silence of Colonel Maus , " s
the court , "on so important a mal
is the chemicalized beef reported
Major Daly and personally known
limself is most remarkable. "
The remark is also made that Ger
il Miles' failure to draw special att
; ion to this report is "unexplained.
