WASHINGTON , April ( ! . In the army beef
court of Inquiry teday the letter of Messrs.1
Armour & Co. . proposing to use the l owcll
process for the preservation of beef , xvns
submitted as evidence by Major I.cc , acting
for General Miles. H was addressed to the
commltpary general , dated nt the firm's
Washington office , July 13 , ISPS , and read
ns follows-
As supplementary nnd explanatory of our
bid to supplv dressed beef In Cuba , wo wish
to say that we have the exclusive control
of the Powell process for preserving fresh
I' meats ' and that this pioces-s has been tested'
'at ' Tnmpt. I'M , the test having been com- '
iplotc'd ' with most satisfactory results.
This test was made tinder the supervision
of Colonel John Wcston of join department ,
who has advised > ou of the results. We are
iidxlsed , howe\er , that he received four1
carcasses of bctf whlih we sent him from
Chicago , dul > lefrlgerntcd nnd treated ac
cording < to the Powell piocessos.
I'art of these cnrcasses weie en\ eloped In
sacks ! oV cam as and part were not These
carcn sts wore distributed to the Third
eavalrv the Pl\th cavalry Intterlra of
artillery .ind the medical department and
were hung In the air on the upper deck of
( he transport troop ships l > lng at the wharf
In I IIP hot sun , without , anj benefit of the
fresh nil or movement of the ship * Tlu <
ploces that were not wrapped fermented In
loss than sotnttwo hours , while the pieces
Unit were covered or wrapped kept about 100
hours
These practical tests imdc under the su
pervision of > our own olllcer , hhow that by
mi-anH of tills process , wrapped pieces or
carcasses can be kept longer than the
seventv-two hours reqnlnd by jour
specifications
We bcllcxo we may afelv saj that such
results have never before been accomplished
In the hlstorv of the fresh meat business
In view ot the test * which wo have made In
the past nnd of the rtsults of the tests made
under the uper\lsHn of > our own ofllco , wo
believe that we nro absolutely safe In the ,
assertion that this Is the onlv process or
method which will secure the results re-
otilrcd bvour special specification
\KMOim S. CO ,
Per T J O'CONNOR , Superintendent.
InJiirloiiN r.fTrrt of IK-of.
Testimony began this afternoon TV 1th Dr.
L Clifford Cox , assistant surgeon In the
volunteers of the District of Columbia Hs
was at Tampa and In Cuba and testified tha :
the command was attacked with dlirrhoei
to the extent cf an epidemic after catlns
refrigerator beef at both places. At triB
second attnik of this character the regi
mental suigeon had ordered that the ISMI"
of the beef he Flopped When this was
done the diarrhoea ceased.
William A Do Calndrj , who has boon
chief clerk In the office of the commissar }
general cf the War department for twenty
jears , related hU connection vslth the wort !
of letting the bref contracts At the in
stance of ( leneral Cagan ho had first sent
out fotty or fifty telegrams to dealers In
beef asking for bljs to supplv refrigerated
beef rr for beef on the block , fieneral
Eagnn having supplied the form. Mr De
Calndry had been Instructed bv Ciener.il
Kagan to prepare the original draft of the
contract for the beef supply , and after
some , rearranging submitted a draft , feeling
confident that it was complete
It was then that men whom he under
stood to be representatives of Swift and Com
pany brought up the question as to thu
length of time the beef should be Kept after
Issue. Memoranda for contracts contain
ing the twenty-four hour olauec were
brought to him by Captain Davis , assistant
comml'saiy general Details v.ore lacking
and the suggestions as to time seemed to
be conflicting He had trlel to get details
from C.iptain D.uls In regard to the tnontv-
four hour clause , and was told bv him that
the understanding was that the refrigerators
were to bo built on shore and In the roa
cf the moving troops , the Intention being to
have the beef exposed for n minimum time
only. Ho had at the time pointed out
the apparent conflict between the twenty-
four and seventv-two hour clauses In one
of the revisions General Engan had Inter
lined In his own handwriting a clause re
ferrlng to the time , reading as follows-
" \\hlch shall not be more thin twenty-
four hours from the time ot storing the
tame In such refrlgeiatora "
L'nufunion ot Tlim * C'liitiflrpi.
This clause , Mr. Do Calndry said , be had
not at the time understood , but ho had no
authority to strike It out When the twentj-
four-honr clause was Insortcd ( Jenera
Eagan appeared dubious about It , but said
nothing more Mr Dp Calndry said that he
had been so worried bv the apparent incon
sistencies In the contiact that he had kept
all the memoranda relating to the matter.
"Aio they on file now' " asked Major
Lee.
"They are not In the file-boxes. "
The witness then btated In reply to ques
tion ! , that Captain Davis was in charge of
these boxes and that Captain Davis was
the cspe lal conlldunt of Gener.il Kagan.
Asked If ho had had any reason at the tlrno
the contract w.is drawn to suspect that any
of the data had been withheld by Kagan or
Davis , Mr Do Calndry replied that ho had rJ J
no such suspicion then and that ho had
none now. Ills impression was that they
woio undertaking to do something which
they had not digested sufficiently to know
jiiht how they wanted to do It. Mr. Do
Calndry gave srmo of the particulars con
cerning thP trial of the Powell process In
I'loiida. Ho spoke of a letter of Armour &
Co. In whlih they argued that thej should
bo awarded the contract because they con
trolled this Powell process , notwithstand
ing tholr bid was somewhat higher than
that of Swift and Company.
"What became of that letter ? " naked
Major I.co
"A poitlon of It Is In the flleb , " said Mr.
Do Calmli ) , "but the bulk of It was re-
tumcd to the writer nt his leijuiwt. The
portion retained was the last page , con
taining the endorsement of tlio secretary or
war and the commissary general. An office
copy was. however , retained. "
Witness was then requested to and did
read the Ifttcr from Armour & . Co , dated
' *
Julv' 13 , bearing on this subject , but ho
said ho had no icmembrunco of over having
seen the letter before This letter was then
put In as evidence.
Dr Ilinhard A. Pjles , chief burgeon of
the District of Columbia volunteers , testified
that the refrigerator beef supplied the troopj
In Cuba had given ttiem d > pentcr > , but ex-
preyed the opinion that this was duo to
the. fart that they ate ton much of It. He
expressed disapproval of the canned bocf
and Bald the mt'ii would only eat It when
they could get no other meat
The court adjourned until tomorrow.

HAVANA , April G 11 23 a m Captain
Neil Oalnes , in charge of the relief of the
destitute of Havana nnd provost of this
city , has declined to give n receipt and thus
make himself accountable for 00,000 cans
of beef , 300,000 cans of tomatoes and quan
tities of dried apples and other stores ,
knowing that some ot these provisions are
spoiled. The supplies ro In warehouse No.
9 at negla. Acting Chief Commissary Bartlett -
lett , In the absence of Chlof Commissary
A. L Smith , wrote to Captain Galnes five
days ago , directing him , by order of the
division commander , to receive from Major
J C Mulllkln of the subsistence department -
ment those stores. Captain Gaincs , how
ever , saw a lot of spoiled meat and asked
General Ludlowto cause an inspection to
be made. Major Mulllkln was unwilling to
wait for the Inspection , as he was being
mustered out , and the department Inspector ,
by General Ludlow-'s order , Investigated the
matter on Sunday nnd found enough lotten
meat to warrant asking for the appointment
of 11 board of burvei
Chief Commissary Smith Is reported to
have received a letter from the acting
commissary general at Washington directIng -
Ing him to destroy spoiled meat without
action on the part of the board of survey ,
though such action Is the usual procedure ,
according to the regulations Following
Smith s Instructions , Benson says , 4,000 cans
of spoiled meat have been thrown Into the
baj.
baj.It
It Is claimed that the refrigerated bc f
supplied by contract with a Chicago firm
to the United States troops at Marlanao and
Havana , Is In part unfit for food. Tor In
stance , It is pointed that nt S o'clock this
morning a quantity of meat was brought
from the refrigerated meat warehouse near
Marianne to the Concha railroad station.
There about 33" pounds of the meat wan
served to tlio commissaries of the Third
battalion of the Second engineers , covered
with canvas , and was taken , in less than
thinly minutes , to La Punta , to bo dis
tributed. But it is atsortol fiom 10 to
20 per cent of the meat was upoilod and hal
to bo trimmed off The remainder was
Issued to the 2CS men In the battalion
|
The same thing , It la added , occurred
cvoiy morning at all camps supplied with
the meat.
The contention of the Inspectors Is that
the outside meat Is spoiled ieforo It leaves
the refrigerated meat warehouse , and that
It Is not spoiled In transit The Inside
meat Is good , but after the bad meat Is
trimmed off there Is not enough left for
the regulation ration of twenty ounces to
ca-h man. The standpoint of the men la
that they are entitled to twcnt ) ounces of
good meat , and that , as the outside meat
Is alwajs bad , enough should bo supplied
by the contractors to allow of trimming ,
as fie soldiers are now the only Icsers.

means of appljlng electricity to the human

way can you apply electricity except
through the medium of my Electric
Belt so that It will penetrate the s > stpm and
not remain on the surface. The reason my
belt does not burn Is that the current pene
trates and Is not retained upon the surfaco.
Electricity not pontratlng the sjstoui , burns
and blisters causes bad running bores ,
which will take months to heal and will
