HKK. ] The fever of excitement caused last
night by reliable reports that tlio reds wcro
coming down upon ns , and many of thd In
dians now hero wore deserting continued
until nearly daybreak. The troops slept on
their arms , nnd the bugler remained wide-
awake with horn In hand awaiting the order
to Bound a call to arms. General Broouo kept
himself behind closed doors and body guard.
No ono could ascertain from him how much
inoro Intense a pitch the excitement must
needs go in order to Induoo him to act.
Lodges of the supposedly friendly Indians
V'ho have been hero at , the agency for scvurul
dnys were observed to withdraw to the hills
and then dash off toward their homes nnd the
camp of the hostlles , some twonty-Uvo miles
distant. Tbo Indian police who wore- doing
duty a few hundred yards from the ageney
buildings dashed into Agent Uoycr's ofllco at
0 o'clock nnd said that a panic in the camp of
the "frlondllos" was Inevitable unless they
were given protection. All had received an
urgent invitation to Join the hostlles and go
on tlio war-path with them. Agent Koycr
sent them an extra guard of 100
tinned scouts , but even this did
Httlo good. The Indian village continued
melting away and the light of this blustery
Sabbath morning reveals Hint over two-
thirds of the nOOJ who wcro hero at sunset
have disappeared , nnd most of them hnwj
gone away with their hearts bad toward all
of us in general and the government In par
ticular.
Look nt the situation a moment. The Gov
ernment , through Agent Hover , n week ago
ordered those friendly Indians to leave their
homos ami nil their stock , etc. , OTIIIO to the
agency and stay until "tho trouble"
is over. The frlciulltm obeyed. A
day or two after their arrival
II' here the government was notllled that the
property of these fricndlics was being stolen ,
burned or despoiled by the ghost dancers ,
The reports were corroborated to both the
Indians hero and the ofllciuls , and yet nothing
was done except to inako un attempt to en
force the friendly Indians to stay here. These
friendly Indians urged and begged of the
officials hero to send protection to their little
homo properties , but the only reply they re
ceived was the echo of their own Words.
For some reason , known only to them
selves , the hostllos decided upon another
tack than that of forcing a flght last , night ,
but they didn't clmngo their minds ,
however , until they had traveled over
twelve miles , or ucury half way from their
camp , toward us. Although wo may 1101
know what caused their plan , wo do Unov
the new one upon -which they have decided
Government scouts brought it In to tin
agency this mornlncr. For tbo mos
part it Is a substantiation of th <
exclusive information sent out fron
hero nnd published In TUB Bin
some three dnys ago. They 'havo ' decided to
move their camp into the "bad lands" and
tharo await the coming of the troops to cap
ture them. They began moving there this
morning and by night all of them were hid
den away in that region , which our best
scouts describe as being worse than the lava
beds ot California , in which the Modocs took
shelter. These bad lands are described as
being inoro like the ordinary conception of
what hell would bo with the fires put out
than anything olso. They begin at the
mouth of Wounded Knco creek , of which
so much 1ms been hoard of late , and which is
the gathering point for all these hostlles and
where the ghost dance started upon this ics-
orvatlou. They run 110 miles northeast to
southwest and about llfty miles cast to west.
It is on utterly barren region , of precipitous
canons and fantastic nnd ghostly formitlons.
Few whlto men nro acquainted with the re
gion , but the Indians know It thoroughly.
The fact that it is possible for the Indians ,
when once established there , as they now nro ,
to continue making raids upon tno settlers
adjoining the bad lands , will certainly ,
it would seem , Induce the soldiers to push
into the region after this big thloving band of
rebels , notwithstanding the fearful chances
to bo Incurred.
The scouts who brought information con
cerning this latest phut of the hostlles also
said that the latter had just .slaughtered fiOO
head of government cuttle nnd HOO belonging
to Governor Mcllotto of South Dakota. The
scouts saw this beef Doing hauled in wagons
nnd pack-trains to the now camp In the bad
lands. Many wagon loads of flour nnd other
provisions that had boon stolen from the .set
tlers wcro also seen headed for the region of
v. denth.
General Brooke has Just received atelegram
of seven hundred ' words from General Hugo- i
warning him 'that thrco hundred lodges
( about ono thousand warriors ) of Choycnncs
wcro coming from Choycnno agency to Join ,
the hostlles near hero. The Sixth cavalry ,
enrouto from Albuquerque to Fort Mead ,
liavo been ordered to stop at Fort Sill , where
another ghost dance fever has broken out.
This was the day set for the oppearanco of
tlio new Indian Messiah , but so far as can bo
learned the rod children who have hugged
the delusion have been disappointed ,
Charley Turning Ilnwk , who keeps
n store on Porcupine , came in this afternoon
nnd reported that the hostile gang had raided
f his store anil taken nearly $1,000 worth of
goods. A party of eight scouts under
Vrank Gnrard , chief government scout , has
Just started out to get futhor Information ro-
Ranting the war-hungry diivils , nnd very im
portant developments nro expected. The
troops are still under orders to bo ready to
move or tight ut a moment's notice.

Introduce in the house tomorrow a bill to rcg-

Is the requirement that every Immigrant ,

Successful Kxporlmonts In New York
with n Cat ml Do : ; .
New Yomc , Nov. 30. A. remarkable pleco
of vlvis-rcdon has been accomplished re
ccntly. A dog mid a cat were the subjects of
the experiment. The end sought to bo shown
was ttmt brain tissue could bo grafted with
out Interfering with the normal functions of
the body. The operation was conducted In
the laboratory of the University Medical
college by Dr. W. G. Thompson , professor
of physiology , a fortnight ago. 'The dog
ana cat were first bathed in a weak
solution ot bichloride of mercury , then they
were placed under the influence of ether.
An incision was inado through the skin on
each of their skulls ; enough of the skull was
sawed off to cxposo the brain ; then the
greater part of the cerebellum was cut
through and taken oat. That from the dog
was placed in the cat's skull , and thut from
the cat was placed in the dog's skull. The
wounds wcro then sowed up and bandaged
with anticeptio dressings. During
the conttnuanco of the operation the
room in which it was performed
was iccpt at a blood-heat tempera
ture la order to minimize the danger of in
flammation from cold in the exposed parts.
Dog and cat were then put in ( | iiict quarters
and carefully attended. On Tuesday week
last the patients wcro considered well
enough to exhibit to a class of 150 students.
They wcro apparently in their usual healtii.
The dog moved about freely and responded
to.motions of the hand , though somewhat
stupidly. The cat also scorned to bo al"
right. Dr. Thompson , who performed the
operation , explained to the class that It
showed tno possibility of grafting brain
tissue. Tucro was n loss of sensation in the
forepaws of both animals after part of their
own brain substance had been removed. The
union between the old and now brains it :
each case was nowso far complete that this
sensation had been restored. The posslbill
tics involved in a successful operation of this
kind were very great , tlio professor thought.
It meant nothing less than patching up tli
brain of a man with n portion from ono of tin
lower animals. In n short time Dr. Thotnp
son will again open the skulls of his patients
in order to see how far tbo structures hav
united.

Tlio Farmer * to Iliilld a Tjliio.
TACOMU , Wash. , Nov. 80. The wheat crop
of Washington is the largest In its history ,
being estimated at 1(5,000,000 ( , bushels. The
elevators , warehouses and box cars along the
railways are llllcd uud stacks of sacked
wheat dots the ilelds. The Inability of the
railways to obtain motive power to move the
enormous crop to market is exasperating the
fnrmcrs\vho are charging them with collusion
with the warehouse men to lower the prlccsof
wheat. So intense has become the feeling
among tlio farmers against the railroad com
panies that they , through their fanners' al
liance , threaten to build an Independent line
in comuetitlon with tin Northern and Union
Pacific to 1'uget sound. To this end it is
proposed to urge the coming suite legislature
to authorize the issue of state bonds to build
.such n roail as a relief for the people , the
state to own and control it ,

Nov. 30. [ Now York Herald
Cable Special to THE Ui'.n.l Some of Par
ncll's ' closest friends in parliament have ad
mitted today that his prospects hero have
darkened during the last twenty-four hours.
Ho has hidden himself to only two persons ,
and they only know whereto find him
Campbell , his secretary , and Powers. This
isolation may have been good policy when ho
desired to keep up his character as a mysteri-
.ons man of politics , but in tills crisis ho
should seek to bring the wavorors to
his sido. His opponents are active
in all rtlrcetlons , anil they nro
gi-catly strengthened by the sentence of doom
pronounced by the American delegates. If
all the leading members of the party are
against him and lie is left with tlio dregs ho
may still prolong the light , but' the odds
against him must bo terrific. Ho is Just beginning -
ginning to find out how many of his followers
ho has offended by his haughty and imperi
ous ways. Ho has always Ignored the ardu-
ous.campalgns of Dillon nnd O'Brien in Ire
land nnd America. Ho throw cold water on
the "Ian of campaign , though the older
leaders were prepared to stand or fall
by It. In his manifesto ho admits
that ho kept Gladstone's now scheme of homo
rule a secret from his colleagues. They ask
what right ho had to withhold from them
communications so deeply affecting them nnd
their constituents. Ho treats them llko dirt ,
seldom speaking to any of them or oven ac
knowledging their salutations as they pass
him in the lobbies. The accumulated ill
feeling and soreness can now apparently bo
discharged upoa his head without
rUk. Consequently the wavering today
has been among Parnell's ' friends , some
of whom to my knowledge show a distinct
tendency to flow over to the other side.
The news that Dillon , O'Brien and O'Con
nor intend to stand by Sexton nnd McCarthy
tends much to shako the Parncllito camp at
sucli a critical hour. It Is spread abroad that
Parnrsll Is spending the day with Mrs.
O'Shca. This is a bitter dose oven for his
best f ricnds to swallow.
Gladstone has been receiving his intimate
friends nnd holds to the opinion that Monday
will see tbo end of Parnell's ' leadership.
Falling that , ho wHl summon a general meet
ing of his party and work for n re
union of his divided forces. Should
Parnell find the opposition too strong for
him , ho Intends to demand another adjourn
meat until the Irish constituencies can bo
heard from through the local committees.
It seems probable that Ireland will bo split
hi two by this struggle. Limerick pro
nounccs for Parnell , Clare for Gladstone ,
nnd so It will go on. Parnell counts upon
compact phalanx of forty members nt least
With thcso , If necessary , ho will oppose Sexton
ton , Dillon and the other rebels in the house
of commons. He declares that ho will create
a now party altogether nnd strike down th
scccders , ono after the other. Even Ireland
has not seen a bigger fight than this.

LONDON , Nov. 30 , [ Now York Heralc :
Cable Special to TUB BiiE.1 1 saw John
Morley at his house this evening. Ho de
clincd to talk about tbo result of tbo recen
political disclosures , but'said ho had Jus
given his answer to Paruoll's manifesto tc
the London Press , nnd showed mo th
original copy of it. There were a number o
cra.iurcs and interllnings , but those wor
merely proof of the nationality of the author.
I read it , and whoa I said "Poor Parnell I :
the remark elicited a smilo. Morley had
Just returned from a visit to Gladstone when
I called. Ills answer to Parnoll is as fol
lows :
.The manifesto published by Pnrnoll con
tains two or thrco statements which affect
mo and which I desire , without loss of time ,
to correct. One is that I made no sort of at
tempt to fetter Parnell's nctloa on the land
purchase bill. Ho agreed with mo in all our
conversations that the bill ought to bo op-
_ poscd as omitting the principle of local con
trol , and for other reasons specified by him
in his speech April ! il. The only question
now Is as to the form of the motion for tbo
rejection of the bill. I.nolnted out to him
( April 14) ) , as many liberals objected to the
whole principle of the bill , un amendment
stating the reasons would boless suitable than
a mention for rejection simpllcitn , and Parnoll
assented. Two days later bo explained to mo
bis alternative plau for fining down rents ,
This , nt Parncll's request , I immediately
communicated to Gladstone , and the samu
evening I wrototo Parnell tbat Gladstone
felt wo could have nothing to say to bis plan
one way or another , but that of course ho
was perfectly free to propound It on his own
responsibility , so carefully did wo realize
that our relations with the Irish party were
ullianco , not fusion.
Parnell imputes to mo that in our conversa
tion of November 10 ( five days before the
proceedings in court ) I made a remarkable
proposal with the object of absorbing
the Irish party Into English politics by
means of ofllco. I made no such proposal. It
was natural that in a frco and confidential
discussion of a possible future I should wish
to make sure , for Gladstone's information ,
that Parnell still held to bis self-denying de
claration of 1SOO. His answer to my iuqulry
was what I had fully anticipated.
Parncll's account of what passed on the
subject of evicted tenants on campaign es
tates Is wholly incorrect , I observed that
some direct action might become necessary ,
though of coarse I foresaw thcro were diffi
culties in the way of legislation. I noversald
thatclthcr lot1 my colleagues had formed any
conclusion against legislation ; I never said
or hinted that It would bo impossible for an
Irish parliament to do anything in the mat-
tor. I did say that , whether by direct or in
direct action ; evicted tenants ouwht not to bo
allowed to suffer. As to Tlpporary , there Is
all the difference between sensible concession
of dlfllculty and the desperation which Par-
nell ascribes to mo. Gladstone Is well able
to deal with his own sliaro In the matter , but
I am bound to say that on November' 10 I
was under n most distinct Impression that
Parnell did not object to the sug
gestions thrown out a year ago ut
Ilawardon on subjects for provisional ex
amination If thcso suggestions wcro likely to
make tha scheme generally accontablo to
Great Britain. JOHN Moui.ur.

CHICAGO , Nov. no. Tonight whllo O'Brien ,
GUI and O'Connor wcro drawing up the doc
ument severing their connection with Par-
neil on lines ngrced upon with their col
leagues in the afternoon , the othro delegates
Dillon , Sullivan and Harrington were
dining in another part of the city In company
with Mrs. 1'arncll , the aged mother of the
man they had decided must retire. So far as
can bo learned the knowledge of what had
been done was kept from the old
lady and to these who Know what
was going on down town the
scnno must linvo scorned strangely unreal ,
The delegates who signed the manifesto wcro
deeply agitated tills evening , but felt that
they had taken only the proper COUKO.
Late tonight it was announced that Harring
ton , who did not sign the manifesto , will
separata from his comrades and return
to Ireland. In an interview Mr. Harrington
said that the leadership of I'nrnoll was abso
lutely necessary to success. Ho desires unity
nnd the independence of the Irish party , and
deems Parncll's ' leadership npcessary for
this.
this.Tho
The delegates , In the manifesto prepared by
them , say in part :
"Our sense of the matchless genius of Mr.
Parnell as a leader , of tlio Imperishable ser
vices ho has rendered the Irish cause , of the
cournco , Integrity nnd splendid success with
which ho has led our people for tun years ,
and tlio personal respect and affection which
"or years bound us to him have made us sus-
icnd to the last possible moment our jung-
nent against Ills further leadership. Tlio
ibligatlon to express that Judgment is to all
if us the most painful duty of our lives.
STo- earthly consideration could move
is to our determination except
ho solemn conviction that wo are
Irivcn tocnooso between Parnell and tbo do-
tructlon of our country's causo. The man-
fcsto which Parnell has Just issued cuts us
iff from the last hope to which wo clung.
Anxious to avoid a war that might embitter
his controversy , we shall not dwell upon the
jrucl injustice with which ho treats the mem
bers of the party that has followed him with
loyaltv and affection such ns no leader over
jxperkmced before. His recollection of their
fealty to him in many hours of trial might
ivell have saved them from the imputation
.hat any section of them could have allowed
.heir integrity to bo sapped by the liberal
wire pullers. < The method In which , ignoring
.ho originof the present calamitous
iituatipn , Mr. Parnell endeavors to
'astcn tlio responsibility for it upon
jladstono , nnd Morley compels us to dis
associate ourselves in the strongest manner
Irom nu imputation which wo bcllovo reck
.ess nnd unjust. Wo vlow with abhorrence
the attacks made on Pat-noil by public and
private enemies under cover of" his present
ulfllcnUIcs. To attacks of this kind , ad
dressed to ono of a proud and strong spirit ,
wo may attribute many of the .terrible dan
gers w'lth which Ireland Is now threatened ,
nnd wo fear that they may do the further-
mischlofof diverting the minds of many
people from grave national to purclv per
sonal Issues in the natural resentment of nn
ungenerous attack on a great leader in the
hour of stress and disaster. Hut , while mak
ing every possible allowance for Parnell's
foellngs , wo consider it unjust to tbo English
peoulo and lamentable from the point of vlow
of international good feeling to describe ns
English wolves these , who have
not been able to briiig themselves
to the same view to which ftratltudo
nnd necessity for union impelled Purncll's
colleagues und countrymen. The plea of
Parnell that Gladstone's letter involves a
claim to dictate to the Irish party and thereby
strike at the indepcnccnco of that party as a
strictly Irish national body is ono calculated
to inspire every Irish nationalist with alarm ,
if that pica were not an obvious fallacy.
Whatever differences ot opinion may exist as
to the haste with which Gladstone's
letter was made public , it was obviously
not his hostility to homo rule , but
an earnest desire to save it from
disaster that prompted Gladstone to write
his letter. Wo deplore that the dlnleultles of
Gladstone's position wcro not frankly recog
nized by Parnell , and that , on the contrary ,
friendly private communications , obviously
made with a view to smoothing the passage
of the homo rule bill , have been made the
basis of Insinuations of treachery to the Irish
causo. By his conviction , again and agah
expressed , that homo rule , to bo effective ;
must bo such a measure as will satisfy the
Irish people , Gladstone is bound to n full and
ample measure of self-government to Ire
land. To offer any other scheme would bo
not onlv an act of incredible baseness , but of
Incredible folly , and wo emphatically sepa
rate ourselves from any such charge against
Gladstone. "
Hcforring to Morley's suggestion that some
of the Irish party should co-oporato in carry
ing out tno Irish programme on liberal lines ,
the manifesto says : "Nobody who knows
Morloy's character will doubt that the sug
gestion was made inttho honest belief that
the liberal ministry would bo helped in the
difllcult work of currying through the details
of the Irish homo rule bill by the co-opera'
tion of Irish colleagues , nnd It was not nn in
sidious attack upoa the integrity and hide-
pendenco of the Irish party. "
It continues : "Wo have now to confron
the statement that Parncll's leadership open ;
an impassable gulf between tlio ropro
scntativcs of Irctnnd nnd the liberal
party who have faithfully observed
their sides of the agreement , and the situa
tion is aggravated by deplorable expression
of ill-will towards the Irish people , who have
again and again within the past llvo years
manifested their determination to do Justice
to Ireland , nnd bavo by their votes paralyzed
the arm of coercion , fn deliberately bring
ing things to this position Paruell has entered
upon a rash and fatal path , upon
which every consideration of Ireland's
safety as well as of i > crsonnl
honor forbid us absolutely to follow him.
What Mr. Parnell asks us to do , stripped of
nil side issues , is to sacrifice all hopes of an
early settlement of the Irish struggle to his
resolve to maintain his personal position. Wo
are driven to cbooso between our leader and
our causo. In that sad choice wo cannot liesi-
tato. Wo are convinced that a calm but reso
lute course of action of our party In this cruel
emergency will redound to the ndvantago of
the cause by furnishing conclusive tes
timony of the capacity of our party
and people for self-government. Wo
cannot relinquish the hope that In the face
of such decisive action by the representa
tives of the Irish people I'nrnoH's sense ot
patriotism will withhold him from plunging
Ireland into these horrors of dissension
which have so otten robbed her of liberty nt
the moment it was within her grasp , and
save til in from undoing in ono passionate
hour the results of all his Incomparable ser
vices to his country "
From an unofllcial source it is learned that
Harrington , In giving his reason why ho
could not sign the manifesto , said his Judg
ment was against Parnell , but his heart was
with him.

It appears from the report of the commis

acres of agricultural land wcro transferred to
actual settlers during the past year , umbrae-
ing those upon llnal and commuted homestead

The cause of inaction upon thcso lists , as
explained In the last annual report , was from
doubt whether congress would endeavor to
forfeit the lands of those roads that wcro neb
built within the time provided In their re
spective grants.
A largo part of the lands granted to rail
road companies lias passed into the hands of
purchasers from the rullroad company and
Is now inhabited and cultivated by thorn.
The question ns to these has practically
ceased to bo ono between the government and
the railroad companies nnd bccoino ono be
tween the United Suites uud Its inhabitants
and should bo dealt with accordingly.

Under the head of private land claims tha
secretary recommends that a United States
land court be established in accordance with
the bill now pending before congivss. Ho
also urges that some legislation bo taken to
settle the disputed land claims of Now Mex

The secretary discusses at length the irri
gation problem and details the work that has
already neon done by his department. II0
calls attention to the various methods which
have been tried and urges congress to enact
comprehensive laws to determine the national
policy in this matter fur the purpose of
guarding against the tnlsuso of the water
sources.
In regard to.tlmber culture the secretary
says : "In the administration of the tlmbor-
culture law a question of serious imiiortnnco
arose , involving former dapartinanuv regula
tions with rosiioct to the period of cultivation
required of the claimant. It was held by the
department for many years that the time al
lowed by the statute for the preparation of
the h.nri nnd the planting of the trees might
bo computed as a part of the requisite eight
years of cultivation. Under this construction
of the law final proofs were submitted on
some twonty-llvo hundred unifies , lint on
June 127 , 1687 , the department Issued a
circular regulation to the effect that the per
iod of cultivation must bo computed from the
time the full acreage of trees , seeds , or cut
tings was planted. Under the later regula
tions these iliud prt-ofs were lusuftlclcnt to
warrant the Issuance of paUmts. lut ) recog
nizing the right of parties to protection who
had acted under the uopirtinuntid construc
tion of a statute , and following the rule that
such a construction , whllo unrovokcd. lias all
the force and effect of law , It was held that
the proofs thus submitted should bo ac
cepted if otherwise satlsluctory , though ad
hering to the later construction of the law in
case of entries made subsoqontly thereto. "
It it recommended that the salaries of tlio
assistant secretaries bo Increased to 5,000
each , Ills also recommended that a much
larger force lo ) employed In the work of the
general laud oDlce , us thu work of that do-
iiartmcnt Is yet largely in arrears , resulting
In loss and inconvenience to the people. This
delay has caused a largo amount of crltlcls in
among the settlers on tlio public lauds which
was unjust and wcro the force increased
these complaints would not bo necessary.
The building. * nra ulso too small for tno
amount of work to bo transacted in them.
Under the bond of Indian affairs the secre
tary rovlowti the work of the past year , but
no rofercnco Is nmdu to the trouble now ex
isting. Ho details the results of the work of
the commission among tlio Sioux in North
and South Dakota , and the coisious made to
other tribes. During the past year it has
been discovered that the number of Indian *
at Uosubud UTcncy was greatly overestimated
and that rations were issued for over two
thousand inoro Indians than thcro actually
