THE INDIANAPOLIS JOUENAL, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 4, 1890.

di&ns. The Indian coramittco of both Houses had been invited to the conference. The agreement was read over in the pres- . ence of tb Indian and the commission,,, and all had assented to it as a fail and complete transaction. It had then been embodied in a bill tn.it was drawn np by Gen. Crook and his associates, and was submitted to Congress by the President of the United States. The bill thus framed, to the complete satisfaction of the Indians, had passed the Senate without the dotting of an "i" or the crossing of a t." but where it was now ho did not .know. He knew, however, that the skirts of the executive and of the Senate wero acquitted and clear of any attempt to depart one iota from tbeassnranrea given to the Indians by the commission. Ho Sir. Dawes) paw tho Indian troubles with a full apprehension of the danger and of the necessity of some present relief to brine arcund composure among the Indians and to extricate them from the lead of such bad Indians as Sitting Bull and lied Clond. who were the bane and curse of the Indians. VOORIIEES KEPLIES TO DAWES. Mr. Voorhees repelled the "feeble attempt ' at a-eneer" on the part of Mr. Dawes in sayingbat he was glad that he Mr. Voorhees had fonnd out what had caused the outbreak of the Indians in tho Northwest. lint the Senator from Massachusetts knew it inst as well as he did, for General Miles iad told him and bad told the pnblic that the Indians bad been made hostile and preferred to die tinhting rather than to die of starvation. Ho did not know whoso fault it was that the Indians were not fed. It might be the fault of Congress or it might be the fault of dishonest agents. The Indians were armed with- Wincheater ritles and were in a state of starvation and desperation. They could enter the field with 6,000 fighting men, and -with the advantage of their knowledge of the country, they could light 0,000 of the best American troops on terms of equality. He asked the Seuator from Massachusetts to state whether these Indians had enough to eat whether General Miles was right or wrong, and whether the Indians were being starved into belligcrancy. Mr. Dawes said that ho had had interviews with General Miles, and that he had heard to-day for the first time that the Indiana were on tb war-path because they were starving. They had been on the warpath for three or fonr weeks.. They had been holding conventicles and camp-meetings, and had been giving themselves up to the delusion that the time had como to go back to barbarism and away from civilization, and they -were starving in conseqitsnce of that. He was not disposed to deny that there had been distress among the Indians, a& there had been among the people inthat region. Mr. Voorhees Does not General Miles say that thosa Indians havo been hungry for two years! Mr. Dawes He may have said it to the Senator from Indiana. Mr. Voorhees He says it in his published interview. Mr. Dawes Tho great difficulty in dealing with these Indians who oro congregating under leaders and are on the war-path is that they havo nothing to eat. They , are away from their tepees. They belong to that class of Indians who never did a day's work in their lives. Mr. Pierce said that ho had sometimes "wondered that the white people in that region did not themselves go on tho warfath because thej- were hungry. The ndian seemed to get hungry as well asnoble, the fnrther people got away from him. Laughter. lie Mr. PierceJ lived withiu a few miles of tho great Sioax reservation. He had been there for the last two months, and this was the first time he had heard it Asserted that the Indian was on the war-path because be was hungry, lie saw Indians ever' day in the town where be lived, and they were sleeker and better fed, apparently, than the Senator from Indiana. Laughter. Mr. Voorhees Does the Senator suppose that General Miles does not know what he is talking about, or that he does not know better about Indian atiairathan a citizen of Dakota! Mr. Pierce I am nearer to the Indians than General Miles is. I have no doubt but that in some of the agencies there are Indians who complain of insufficient food. But I do question very much whether Gen. Miles made the statement attributed to him in the newspapers. If the Senator from Indiana were starving, and had a Winchester ride. I venture to say that he could get a barrel of Hour without any trouble. Tho trouble with tha Indians is that they are led and clothed, and allowed to live on tho bounty of the government, and that, therefore, as the old adage says, the devil "finds mischief still for idle hands to do." I apprehend that you . might take the same number of white pt-ople and put them on a reservation, and feed and clothe them and take care of them, and that in less than six months they also would go upon the war-path. I hope that the jpint resolution will pass. . Mr. Voorhees paid a high compliment to the soldierly and other good qualities of General Miles, and said that ho would take his statement far sooner than that of a Senator who lived near tho .reservation and who. with his people, wanted to get the Indian lands at soon as possible. The one was a reliable officer, the other was the . fox lying around the pen where the geese were, waiting to get some of them. Laughter. This ended the discussion for the day. COLONEL IIEYIS VIEWS.

He Says the Indians Have Gone to the Bad Lands to Protect Their IJen-Rooat. Chicago, Dec. 3.' Colonel Heyl, inspector-general. Division of the Missouri, returned this morning from a visit to the scene of the Indian troubles in the Northwest. In an interview he said: "My opinion is that there is no imminent danger of any serious trouble. Tho troops are concentrated and seem to have the situation perfectly in hand.7' "As a matter of fact, has the sitnation ever been as grave as has been reported in the newspapers!' "Nothing like it," he replied, emphatically. "A great part of tho scare has been totally uncalled for. Why, a number of newspapers got to printing sensational and grossly-exaggerated stories about the Indians, and many settlers in Dakota and Nebraska became panic-stricken. They sold their property for almost anything they could get, abandoned their homes and rushed to the nearest railway station, when the fact . is they were in no more danuer from the Indians than wo are herein Chicago."; -"Do yon consider the movement of the Indians toward tho Bad Lands as ominous?" The Colonel smiled. "I'll tell you about the alarming retreat to the Bad Lands," he said. "In the ' Bad Lands there are many fertile spots on which the Indians live. When the order went out calling the tribes into the agency those Indians bad to abandon their homes. In their absence some bands of marauders have been committing petty depredations, such as stealing chickens and household ntensils. This came to the knowledge of the Indians at the agency, and numbers of them are slipping away, whenever they get an opportunity, for the purpose of going back to protect tlieir chattels." "Nothing in it in oro alarming than a quiet Hank movement to protect some henroosts, thou!" "That it, abont it," the Colonel replied. "I reached Pine Ridge on the 27th. I found that the dance bad ceased threedays before I got there. Ana I may add that it was not resumed when I left. The Indians were quiet and peaceably disposed. Some few of the Ogallala Sioux, particularly the young bucks of that tribe, were anxious for trouble, but these were pretty much controlled by the . older and wiser heads. The principal cause of the Indian trounies is lacic ox proper provisions iu the way of rations principally meat rations. The latter wero reduced 1.000,000 pounds for the Pine Kidge reservation alone, and the authorities there have a practice of issuing a steer at the weight at which it was received. For instance, the agency might get a steer in the fall that would weigh .1.000 pounds. Iu the spring it would not weigh more than 500 pounds, but it would be issued at 1,000 pounds all the same. Of course, the Indians would lose the difference. This is one creat source of dissatisfaction. "The Indians generally, I think, are inclined to accept any proposition made to theui by the military authorities of a peaceable nature, but when I left there was a big snow-storm and blizzard cojiing. which I think will cool the ardor of the young bucks. 1 do not anticipate a winter campaign in the Indian country, in that sense of the word, but troops will be kept there as against any trouble that rniunt happen this winter, or any attempt to go on the war-path in the spring. The Indians are not properly led, and there will be the probability of trouble until theyuro. In

the spring they may make a break that is, the young bucks but they can be controlled. Troops will be there to attend to them if they maKo trouble. I believe an efiort is being made to increase the meat rations among the Indians. Several bands came in while, I was there. When I left Young-Man-Afraid-of-His-Horse was coming in with his band, carrying a yellow llag, which is atokenof peace7. PREPARING TOIt WAR,

House Will lie Asked to Vote 8750,000 for Expenses or an Indian Campaign. Special to the Indianapolis JonraaL Washington, Dec. 3. General Cutcbec:;. chairman of the House military committee, to-day completed his rough draft of the army appropriation bill. A6ide from its routine features, its items disclose that tho military authorities are gettiug ready for a big Indian war next spring. About 750,000 over and above the U6ual sums appropriated for army needs are provided for a possible Indian campaign. One item is $000,000 increase for the transportation of troops if it becomes necessary, to mass large forces at the center of Indian hostilities. Another is I50,0C0 for horses for scouts, Indian police, cavalry, and. artillery. The usual . item for subsistence is increased by $500,000 to provide food for the added numbers in the campaign. A significant parenthetical sentence is one which states that the additional subsistence may be used for Indians taken prisoners. It indicates that the possibilities of an extensive Indian campaign in the spring are being provided for, and that the authorities are looking forward to making prisoners of the unruly red-skins who are now causing the trouble in the Northwest. " SITUATION IN THE WEST. Additional Troops En Route to Pine Ridge Indians to Re Enlinted. Chicago. Dec. 3. Shortly before noon today Gpn. Nelson A. Miles commanding the Department of the Missouri, arrived from W ashington. A number of dispatches were awaiting him and ho addressed himself to their consideration, to tho exclusion of all Cillers. General Miles has decided to mount two regiments of infantry now at Pine Ridge agency. Orders to this effect have been promulgated. The two regiments are the First, from California, and the Seventh, from Denver. The horses and other supplies to carry out this are being hastily provided. It is surmised in and about headquarters that GeneralMiles contemplates proceeding to the Indian coun try in person. The following order has been received from the War Department: "The Secretary of War authorizes the enlistment in tho Division of the Missouri of not to exceed two troops of Indians for each of the cavalry regiments serving therein. Also, the enlistment of two companies of Indians for 'each of the infantry regiments serving in the vicinity of the Sioux and Cheyenne reservations, the whole not to exceed two hundred troops and companies of sixty enlisted men each in all, 1,200 men." Sixtveight recruits from David's island, New York, passed through the city en routo to Pine Kidge agency to-day. First Lieut. Marion P. Mans, of the First Infantry, now on the start of General Miles, has been promoted to a captaincy in the regular army. To-night General Miles said that it was his intention to proceed to the Northwest, and that he should endeavor to start in two or three days. "My visit to the Northwest," ho said, "will be for the purpose of thoroughly organizing matters and locating tho troops at all available and useful points." Rllzzard at Pine Ridge. Omaha, Dec. 3. A correspondent at Pino Ridge agency says: Severe weather and a driving storm of cutting sleet prevail here. The troops are hugging their camp-fires, while the Indians are freezing in their gauze-like tepees just outside the precincts. Agent Royer will call in the Indians at the agency and give them a big feed at the store-house. Should the present storm continue, and particularly should there be a heavy fall of snow, the ponies of the Indians now here, and whoso hay has been stolen by tho hostiles, will die of starvation. At the best this winter will inevitably be very tongh. These copper faces who have bowed their heads to government rule in tho present instance are suffering, while their rebellious and thieving brothers are living on the fat of tho land. Intense silence aud darkness prevails over our surroundings to-night. High officials nay wo eat few more meals this side of Bad Lands.- The Sixth and Eighth regiments will be filling the only gap (near Fort Meade) and General Miles's great military circle will be complete within twenty-four hours. Noted Fighters Going: to the Front. Albuquerque, N. M., Dec, 3. The Sixth Cavalry, consisting of nineteen officers, 3S5 men and SCO horses, arrived this afternoon from Fort Wingate on their way to- Fort Meade, and were delayed last night by a wreck of a freight train. They were paid oil here, before leaving, to the extent of S7.GO0. They have been fourteen years inNew .Mexico, and are glad to gut a change. There are some noted Indian fighters among the officers and men. The two companies of infantry left at Fort Wingate will be reinforced by a troop of cavalry from Whipple barracks. General Carr, commander of the Sixth Cavalry, in an interview, said be thought there would be no trouble with the Navajos Indians. Lieutenant C. B. Rhodes, of the Sixth Cavalry, was married toMissMay F. Counselman, of this city, last night. Rhodes is a West Pointer. Their honeymoon will be spent in a trip with the regiment to .the Black hills. y r Troops from the Pacific Coast. San Francisco, Dec. 3. Orders were given to-day to the First Infautry Regiment to start for the scene of the Indian troubles. The soldiers will leave early tomorrow morning. The regiment is composed of twenty-two officers and CS6 men President's Message Indorsed at Roston. Boston, Dec. 3.The now executive committee of the Home Market Club held its lirst meeting last evening. Col. Albert Clark, secretary, and Beverly Moore, treasurer, were re-electod. Letters were re ceived from Major McKinley, Senator Hoar and others favoring there-enlistment of all friends of the canse for early, constant and aggressive work, and this policy was resolved upon. The President's message was discussed, and his views on protection, reciprocity aud the federal election bill warmly commended. A Girl' Murderer Killed by Officers. Willi am stow x, Ky Dec 3.

MR. PAESELL GAINS A POINT

Irish Nationalists Adjourn After Listening to a Compromise Proposition. He May Retire Temporarily in the Interest of Harmony Backed ly the People of Ire- . laud Protest from Catholic Clergy: COMPROMISE PROPOSED, i'ofslbility that Tarnell Will Temporarily Retire Yetrdaya Meeting;. London, Dec. 8. The meeting of the Nationalist members of the House of Commons to further consider the question of the retention of Mr. Parnell in tho leadership of the party reassembled at 2 o'clock this afternoon in the room of the House of Commons in which the previous meetings have been held. During the proceedings Mr. Parnell announced that the Sergeant-at-arms of the House of Commons badgranted the Irish members the use of the committee-room until ? o'clock. Mr. Hcaly disputed that official's right to determine the length of the deliberations, and requested that he bo notitied to that effect. Mr. Pf rnell declared that the message that Mr. Healy suggested be sent to the Ser-geant-at-arms was impertinent. Objection was raised to telegrams from individuals being received during the proceedings. During the discussion a telegram, personal to Mr. Parnell, was read: Mr. Sexton said ho would persist to the end in bisonposition to Mr. Parnell, despite the ruffianly attacks that had been made cpon him., A dispatch fropi Clomnel was read, declaring that the tenants on the Smith-Harry estates were with Dillon and O'Brien iu theiropposition to the leaders of the party. Atele--gram from the Belfast branch of the National League declared that the memlfers would have no leader but Parnell. When this dispatch was read, Mr. Sexton, who represents th?. Western division of Belfast, , said that if the opinion of the Belfast Nationalists was contrary to his own he would resign his seat in Parliament. Mr. Clancy saidbo had a proposal to mako which he hoped would indnce a solution of tho difficulty in which the party found itself. Somo conversation ensued, which resulted in an adjournment until to-morrow, when it is expected a compromise will be arranged which will lead to entirely" new developments. Mr. Clancy's motion involves the temporary retirement of Mr. Parnell. subject to certain conditions being exacted from Mr. Gladstone in connection with his promised home-rule scheme. Mr. Clancy's proposal has raised a hope among the Nationalists that a unanimous settlement will be effected. Liberal circles, however, . do not share this hope, the attitude and froutt of the opposition regarding Parnell being resolute and unyielding. Mr. Parnell is in tho. best of spirits ami expresses with great confidence the view that the present movement will finally result favorably to him. The feeling amon his supporters is that his position is materially strengthened to-day, and especially by assurances of support received from America and Ireland. The municipal authorities of Boyle. Cork aud Drogheda, tho "Plan of Campaign" tenants of Curossand Mellin and the Boyle branch of the National League, have passed resolutions '-against Mr. Parnell. The Municipal Council of Bailing the Newrv Nationalists, the poor-law gnardinns of Ennis, the Cork Young Ireland Society and the Lismore branch of tho National League have voted in favor of his remaining in the leadership. The. Nationalists of Sligo are divided in their opinion. Bishop Gilhooly, of the Diocese of Elpbin, aud the clergy of his diocese favor Mr. Pa'rnell's retirement. .1 Mr. Parnell has decided to state ex plicitly whether he will retire from the leaaeisnip, out nas asKea a aay in wnicn to consider Mr. Clancy's proposal, which was cleverly designed in the Parnell interest, with the double object of gaining time and putting the Sexton side further wrong iu the event of the almost certain' refusal of Mr. Gladstone to give the ' required pledges. ' , - DRIFT OF SRNTLHEN. jry 7 """""""" j u Parnell Indorsed by Irish Municipalities, but Deuounccd by the Clergy. London, Dec 3. The Nationalist members of the Municipal Council of Cork have adopted, by a vote of 21 to 9, a resolution expressing confidence in Mr. Parnell aud urging him not to recognize any adverse action that may be taken by hispppohents in the Irish party. The resolution was passed after a very hot ana noisy debate, the minority making a strong efiort to prevent its adoption, Tho Catholic Bishop of Elpbin, Connty Roscommon, calls upon Parnell to resign. ' r The poor-law guardians of Strokestown, Carrick and Boyle, Ireland, havo withdrawn their confidence in Mr. Parnell. The town Council of Maryborough has adopted a resolution supporting Mr. Paruelf.' The opinion of the Nationalists irvCpunty Tyrone, Ireland, in favor of" Mr. Parnell is growing stronger. Mr. William. Reynolds, who represents the eastern division of that county, and Mr. Matthew Kenney, who represents the tniddle division, have beeu summoned by their constituents to resign their seats in the Hpruo of Commons if they do not support Mr. Parnell. At a meeting of the Catholio hierarchy,, held at the residence of Archbishop ,Valsli, in Dublin, to-day, it was resolved to issue a' manifesto declaring that the archbishops and bishops of Ireland consider that Mr. Parnell is unfit to remain the leader of the Irish party. The objections to Mr. Parnell arc based mainly on moral grounds, but it is also the opinion of the hierarchy that his1 continuance in the leadership would inevitably cane disunion in the party. Tho Catholic hierarchy declares that their judgment is not given on political grounds, but solely on the revelations of tho divorce court, after which they are unable to regard Mr. Parnell in any other light than as convicted of one of the gravest otlenses known to religion and society, which is aggravated in his case by almost every circumstance possible to give itscandalousprominencein cuiltandshame. "Surely Catholic Ireland," the manifesto , continues, "so eminently conspicuous for tho virtue and purity of its social life, will not accept as a leader a man wholly dishonored and unworthy of Christian confidence. Further, wo cannot avoid tho conviction that the continuance of .Mr. ParnolTs leadership will disorganize and ran ue in hostile camps those hitherto united with the force of our country. Con fronted with the prospect of a continuance so disastrous, we see nothing but inevitable defeat at the general election, and as tho result home rule indefinitely postponed, coercion perpetuated, the hands of the evictors strengthened and evictees without the shadow of a hope of being reinstated." Lord Salisbury, in a speech at Waterfort, Lancashire, this afternoon, 6aid that while he praised the moral outburst agabist Mr. Parnell.be reflected that the breaches of thf sixth and eighth commandments committed by the Irish people bad hitherto been allowed to pass without blame. Messrs. Healy and Sexton, after supporting their leader, had turned and rent him. The Liberal leaders. Lord Salisbury said, took no decided view regarding Mr. Parnell until ther saw the ellect which the revelations had on the religions portion of the community. He challenged Mr. Gladstone to give tho facts concerning tho Hawardea interview. A crisis, be declared, was Inevitable, 60oner or later, from the very nature ot the alliance between the Liberals and the Home-rnlers. Such a vague, dark policy would bo impossible in the future. GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. Mrs. Nellie Fearcy Convicted of Murder and Sentenced to He Hanged. London, Dec. 3.Tho trial of Mrs. Nellie Pearcy on the charge of murder ended today. The jnry returned a verdict of guilty, and the prisoner was sentenced to be hanged. The crime for which Mrs. Pearcy is to die was committed on Oct. 24 last. On tho morning of the th tho body of a woman, which was subsequently identified as that of Mrs. Hogg, the wife of a London porter, was found in the South Hampstead locality. Her throat had been cut and her skull fractured. Investigation by tho police

soon revealed the fact that Mrs. Hogg bad visited Mrs. Pearcy the previous afternoon, taking her infant child with her. A search of the Pearcy residence revealed traces of a bloody struggle, and Mrs. Pearcy was taken into custody. The motive of the murder was revealed at the coroner's inquest, when Hogg, the husband of the murdered woman, testified that a liaison bad existed between himself and Mrs. Pearcy, It was shown that duricg the visit words had passed between the two women, or, as Mrs. Peacy said, "Mrs. Hogg mado a remark that I did not like." and Mrs. Hogg was assaulted and murdered by her husband's mistress. Mrs. Kogg'a infant was also killed by the woman. New Discoveries by Dr. Kolu London, Dec. 4. Sir Joseph" Lister, in a speech at King's College, on his return from Berlin, announced that within a month the world -would be startled by two new discoveries. He said . Dr. Koch's transcendinsly important consumption cure, hinted at, involved the cure and prevention of two other contagious diseases known. Sir Joseph Lister had witnessed experiments on guinea pigs in which they were inocculated witl anew, simple chemical substance which any one would be able to prepare and were totally unallected when germs of these diseases wero injected. Dr. Koch, had practically concluded this work of discovery, but desired to make further test. Therefore he desired to keep his latest discovery secret for the present. Sir Joseph Lister said ho was convinced that this discovery was tho most important in the history of medicine since that of vacciuc.

Parnell Totes with the Tories. London, Dec. 3. -In the House of Commons, to-day, the amendment moved by Mr. Ellis, declaring that the Irish landpurchase bill was an unsafe measure as regarded the imperial exchequer, and that it was unjust to the occupier of the land, was rejected by a vote of 245 to 137, the Parnellites. including Messrs. Parnell and Healy, supporting tho amendment. Closure was carried by a similar majority. The bill then passed ita second reading bya'vote of 2fS to ISO. Mr. Parnell and bis followers transferred their votes to tho government. French Duties on Provisions. Paris, Dec. 3.

Cable Notes. The Figaro says that the proposed marriage between the Duke of Orleans and. Archduchess Marguerite Sophie of Austria. has finally been abandoned. The Duke will serve one year in the Russian army. The crisis in the Brazilian Ministry arose from a dispute between President Da Fonseca and the members of his Cabinet regarding the punishment of the officers who wrecked the offices of the Tribuna. The ditliculty has now been settled. A report from the British consul-general in Uruguay . warns English emigrants against settling in that country, whether they are laborers, agriculturists or artisans, as they cannot compete with the Italians in the matter of low wages and miserable living. . Mr. Balfour, Chief Secretary for Ireland, has ordered a man-of-war to convey ten tons of meal for the purpose of relieving the distress which prevails among tho inhabitants of Clare island and'Jnnisturk, arising from the failure of the potato crop in those sections of the country. Berne has been startled by a crime similar in many respects to those which were committed by Jack the Ripper in the Whitechapel district of London. As somo men were passing through a forest in the vicinity of Berne they discovered the body of a young peasant girl who had been murdered and mutilated in a most shocking manner. There is no clew to the murderer. In a speech at London, last evening, Sir Richard- Everard Webster. Attorney-general, said he believed that English factors would derive benefit from the world's fair to be held in Chicago in 1S02. He expressed the hope that Great Britain would be officially represented at the exhibition, and that no resentment would be shown in consequence of the adoption by the United States of the now tarill law.
