Also Saw Beef Aboard a Trans port That Was Chemically Prepared. His Former Report Not Made in Response to a Request From Miles. WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.- Major W. H. Daly, chief surgeon with General Miles and whose field service stretched from Tampa to Porto Rico and whose report condemning the beef furnished the ex peditionary forces created a sensation «ome weeks ago, made his long awaited appearance as a witness before the wax investigating commission. Surgeon Daly's report was the strongest in language of those submitted by General Miles in substantiation of his attack on the beef supplies. Dr. Daly has been too ill to appear heretofore. He was ac companied by General Miles' own sten ographer despite the presence of the commission's official stenographer. On being sworn the witness iden tified the report submitted as his own, changing its date, however, from Sept. ol to Oct. SI. He was will ing, he said, to stand by his report. It was wholly voluntary and was not called out by request, or in obedience to any circular letter, so far as he remem bered. He had heard nothing of an offi cial circular calling for reports. At Ponce, however, some time between Aug. 1-12, he believed he had commu nicated to General Miles some observa tions regarding beef supplies. At Tampa on shipboard, he had noticed a quarter of beef hanging free in the sun. and he became interested in the experiment of having fresh slaughtered beef placed under such moist climatic conditions to see how long it could stand it. Files Wouldn't Touch It. "I observed.he said, "that the flies, especially the bull Hies, did nut affect it did not alight on it. or if they did they got away from it very quickly. He had cut off a piece of that beef at Tam pa and cooked it. but it neither smelled nor tasted naturally. Later he helped the men corral some In n*s and subse quently he had trouble with his stom ach. which he first attributed to the ac tivity of corralling. Then he noticed indications of chemical presence that brought back recollections of chemical stuff he had used to preserve elk in a hunting expedition in the Rocky moun tains some years before. All that day at Tampa and the next he had an un pleasant taste. In the previous hunting experience he had analyzed the chem ical preservative and found it to con tain borax and salicyclic acids. Thes« were to be used externally on the elk, but he had rubbed it in the raw flesh and also injected it. (Questioned as tc these ingredients, he said borax was not safe to be used in connection with food nor for ordinary medicinal purposes while the salicyclic was most naueou loathsome and disgusting, almost always destructive of digestion. •jfrifc UKDMl SI ILL 1 futit'h:. ustoms Receipts at Santiago Not to Be Expended Except 011 Orders. SANTIAGO LE CLUA, Jan. -JL.—The United States military authorities in Havana have cabled the Santiago de partment an order directing that not a cent of the customs receipts of the de partment is to be expended without the permission of Governoi General Brooke. The order also directs that the greatei part of the sanitary work performei shall be done without money pay and for rations merely. The directions regarding the custom* funds have not yet been made generally known. As most people, relying upon a recent dispatch from Dr. Joaquin Cas tillo now in Washington, have regarded this point as definitely settled in favoi of Santiago, it has been considered ad visable thus far not to allow the ordei in question to become public lest thert be a renewal of the popular excitement provoked by the issuance of the original order for the concentration of customs at Havana. Intelligent Cubans, whe are in possession of the facts, however, are greatly worried over the situation themselves, as this and other recent or ders virtually reduce the military gov ernor of the department to a mere au- NEARLY' BURIED ALiva. {eon Bay Young Man Leaven the Un dertaker's Table lo a Hurry. MILWAUKEE, Jan. 21.—A special tc The Wisconsin from Sturgeon Bay, Wis., says: Jacob Grath, a son of Charles Grath, of the town of Noseaweape, had the terrible experience of nearly being buried alive. He had been ill for some time and respiration having ceased he was thought to be dead. Relatives were telegraphed for, the casket ordered and taken by the undertaker, who was tc prepare the remains for the coffin. Thf "corpse" was put on a cooling board, and while the undertaker was washing tht body the supposed corpse sprang up. dashed through the house, frightened every member therein and became vio lently insane. Mr. Grath had been in e trance 48 hours. He was finally cap tured and upon examination was taker to Sturgeon Bay for committment. It is thought that rubbing of the muscles caused reaction, otherwise the boy would have been buried alive. DEMOCRAT KEEPS HIS SEAT. House Decides the Brown-Swaoson Elec tion Case. WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.—The house practically decided the Brown-Swanson contested election case from the Fifth Virginia district in favor of the sitting member. Mr. Swanson. by declining to consider the case. Twenty-four Repub licans joined with the Democrats and Populists in this vote. The postofflce appropriation bill was then taken up. The greatest surprise of the day was the adoption of two amendments striking out of the bill the appropriation of $171,000 for the fast Southern mail and $25,000 for special mail facilities from Kansas City to Newton, Kan. This ap propriation for the Southern mail has been fought annually for six or seven years, but has always been retained. NOT WANTED IN CHINA. Men Are Much Cheaper Than Machines, According to Consul Good now. WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.—Labor-saving devices are not wanted in China. This is clearly shown by Consul General Goodnow, in a report to the state de partment, made in reply to an inquiry of an export association in New York. "I cannot give you any encourage ment," lie says, "in regard to the ship ment of wheelbarrows, scrapers, dump carts and the like to China. The wheel barrow used here has one large wheel in the middle and a seat on either side, where passengers are carried. Once in a great while dirt is carried in baskets in such a barrow, but ordinarily it is carried by a coolie in two baskets hung on the end of a bamboo rod balanced on his shoulders. These baskets are about the size and shape of a grain scoop. Labor saving devices are not in demand in China. The cheapest thing here is a man. There is more labor than can find employment. A coolie carrying dirt will receive from 7 to 10 cents per day. He must work from sunrise to sunset—not very steadily or intensely, but putting in great many hours and accomplishing a large amount of work for the amount of wages paid. There are more coolie: willing to work for this pittance than there is w»rk for tliem to do.*' LATEST MARKET RgFOftT. Dtaluth Grain. DL'LL'TH, .Tail. 20.
