vtsable to adopt, and not as one of th? i
things that Is at present being con?
sidered by the government."
Mr. Llmantour denied that he spoke
of antagonism between the people and
the administration and lack of ac?
cord between the governing element
and the governed.
"When I was asked what was the
truth respecting the alleged negotia?
tions with the" rebels, and the con

had not been any negotiations with

MARKETING FOR ARMY
IS GIGANTIC TASK
Duty of Chief Commissary Officer One of Hard?
est in Connection With Border Manoeuvres.
What the Soldiers Eat.
[Special to The Tlmcs-Dispatch.]
Washington, D. C, March ?Pic
turo yourself starting out to do your
morning marketing with a market
basket capable of holding over 50,001)
pounds of produce and a pockotbook
containing $5,000 or 5G.000 with which
to mako your purchases.
Figuratively speaking, this is the
dally task of Major Harry 13. Wilklns,
chief commissary ofllcer at the army
manoeuvre camps at San Antonio, Tex.
Few people realize what a gigantic
task it is to see that 20,000 able-bodied
soldiers get three, good meals a day.
While much has been written about
the achievements of other blanches of
the army In connection with the newly
pitched camps along tho Mexican bor?
der, the commissary department has
been neglected, and .vet this Is perhaps
the most important of them all. Mili?
tary experts all agree that In order
to get the best services from the sol?
dier, first It must be seen that he la
well fed. and, secondly, that he Is well
shod and clothed.
It is Major WTlklns'a duty to see
that this first requirement is carried
out at the San Antonio camp. In
this he has tho assistance of Captain
Joseph 10. Cusack, chief purchasing of
flcer. As a geperal rule, commissary
stores for use in the army arc largely
purchased through the War Depart?
ment by contract. Uy this means It
has been found that the different arti?
cles can be secured at less cos.t than
if bought by the purchasing officers of
the posts where they are needed.
Made lu Open Market.
In the case of the San Antoi.io camp,
however. Major Wilklns has been giv?
en authority to purchase any supplies
that he may need at the nearest con?
venient point. Stich purchases are
made in the open market and not
through contract. This will mean thut
farmers In the neighborhood of San
Antonio, Tex., will have no difficulty
In disposing of their produce this sea?
son, for instead of using canned and
desicated vegetables the commissary
officers will secure fresh articles when?
ever It Is possible.
In estimating the amount of food
necessary to feed an army, the unit
of measure used is known as a ration,
or that amount of food required by
one man for one day. One army ra?
tion costs the government about 23 1-2
cents at me present time. Several
years ago rations could be purchased
at several cents' less cost. The 20,000
tations needed to feed each day tub
army camped about San Antonio costs
the government about $ 1,704.
Three hundred and twelve cooks are
needed to prepare the food when once
it has reached the camp. In this work
they have the .assistance of an equal
1 number of kitchen police, or soldiers j
j who have been detailed to help In the i
preparation of the food and also In tho j
j serving during meal time. j
i Each company has Its own cook \
tent and two regular cooks. Each day
about two or ihre.: members of the
lespectlve companies are detailed as
their aesistunts.
In a manoeuvre camp, requiring 20,- j
000 rations dully, such as the one at
San Antonio, about 28.000 pounds of !
beef are consumed. About 200 pounds
or dried and canned fish ate used. !
Nearly 1,000 pounds of lard arc required,
and about Coo pounds of butter. Ap- '
proximately 1,700 pounds of coffee, 2,
000 cans of condensed milk and 7.000 ;
pounds of sugar are other important;
items. Between 30,000 and -10,000
loaves of bread must also bo included. !
Rations, of course, vary according !
j to the conditions under which they arc i
? to be used. When a military organ! zu- I
tloti Is located In a permanent camp. !
fresh meats and vegetables cm gen?
erally lie secured, but if an order is t
given to break camp and prepare for
a campaign the commissary officers
must get busy and get together such
supplies as can be kept stored for some
lime without any ?langer of their spoil?
ing.
If the regiments * camped about San
j Antonio were to be ordered in the
field for a week of active campaigning
it would be- necessary to carry along
J 45,000 pounds of canned beef, 78.750
I pounds of bacon, and 150,000 pounds of
j hard bread. Thirty thousand pounds
of desclccated onions and potatoes and
15,000 pounds of canned tomatoes
j would be needed. Other Items would
be. 12,000 pounds of coffee and 22,250
pounds of beans. Dessert for the sol?
diers would b? represented by 13,125
pounds of Jam. In seasoning the food
375 pounds of pepper, 6,000 pounds of
salt and 13,500 gallons of vinegar
would bo needed. Other important
items in tho list would includo 6,000
pounds of soap and 2,850 pounds of
candles.
?\Vclglif? 100,000 round*.
It has been estimated that the net
weight of the food necessary to "main?
tain an army of 20,000 for one week's
1 duty in the Held would be about 400,
! 000 pounds. This only represents the
j actual weight of tho food alone, and
does not Include the weight of the
boxes, cans and crates in which it
I must be carried. The gross weight is
I more than 520,000 pounds.
Besides supplying the food for an
Commissary, With Stock Valued
at $1,000,000, Barely Es?
capes Flames.
Col oil, March 23.?A fierce lire raged
to-day in Thirteenth, Fourteenth, Boll
vurd and D Streets. More than thirty
1 houses were destroyed, and the local
I tire brigade-, and lire forces from the!
j Canal /.one found great difficulty hi j

\ About Hfty houses and three churches
wore destroyed. A few small houses
on the Canal Zone, occupied by labor?
ers, wore among thoso burned. The
commissary, conialjng stock valued at
$1,000.000, only 100 yards from the
burned district, was saved.
Sixty men from the United States
gunboat Paducan rdhdered assistance,
and a fire brigade was brought* over
from Panama City. Several lives are
reported to have been lost. The mute
