Although everything , oven to the saddling of
the pack mules , seems In readiness for the
military to move on the hostlles , yet the or
der to start has not boon given. Why this
order h withheld nobody knows but General
Btookc , nnd of course ho will not tell. That
the mysterious sending out toward the bad
lands of n largo number of the supposedly
friendly Indians from this agency , all fully
nrmed nnd supplied with rations nnd camp
ing outfits , this forenoon , Is a forerunner of
battle can scarcely bo doubted. There were
possibly some two hundred , moroorlcsstn the
band , and they were all In strictly Indian
garb , notwithstanding many wcro recognized
ns those who \isunlly go about the agency in
' civilized attire. None of them wcro agency
police , nnd few had ever before been enlisted
In the service of tbo government. I asked
Agent Roycr If he had sent them out , and ho
said no. Then I asked Special Agent Cooper ,
and ho , too , replied no. Next I went to Gen
eral Brooko.
"I have sent out no armed Indians , " ho an
swered.
"Who did , thcn ? IasUd.
"Well , I didn't. ' "
"That Is singular. "
"What Is singular ! " asked tbo general.
That n big party of armed Indians , fully
equipped for n long march , should leave hero
without orders from nn y of those in author
ity. "
At this the general moved uneasily in his
chair , nnd after stroking his forehead several
times , said :
"I pnvo my permission for them to go out. "
"Who provided them with arms , etc ? "
"I gave them no arms. "
" \VhodIdl"
"That is another matter. "
"Can you refer mo to tlio person who will
tell mot11
"I pnvo them no arms and I do not think
best to talk about the matter. "
"Where are they going ! " I next asked.
"Did you see them start ! " nikcu ho In re-
piy."Yes
"Yes , sir. They started toward the bad
lands. "
' You are sure of that I"
"I nm. "
"All right , thnn. "
"Did tnoy co to the bad lands ) " I urged.
"How should I know , " said the general ,
"sinco I did not send them ? "
From what I have boon able to glean outJ
sldo of official circles , It seems that the Idea
Is that If this body of Indians go to the bad
lands , light the hostilcs and get whipped ,
then the soldiers , n very large proportion of
whom have been fairly aching to bo turned
loose on the rebels , will perhaps bo given an
opportunity to show what they can do.
Little Bat , as ho Is most widely known , nnt
other of the scouts sent back with the hostile
chiefs who came in and hud the council with
General , Brooke hist Saturday , has returned -
turned and substantiates the report
-bamgbt In yesterday by Ynnkton Char-
loyp that the Indians had n big fight
among themselves over the question of ceas
ing hostilities. IIo says that whllo some
may bo able to make their cscnpo from the
hostile camp jet many are bound to remain
and meet the troops In battle.
Later Slnco writing the nbovo I have
made another skirmish to discover who Is
responsible for sending out that body of
friendly Indians armed , nnd to ascertain
definitely whether or no they wcro going to
the bad lands. It Is said that by order of
General Brooke the friendly chiefs that nro
hero belli n secret council yesterday at a rc-
inoto point from the agency'and , were told by
a scout direct , from the general that the lat
ter wanted them to have their you.ig men go
out to tbo bad lands ami bring in the hostllcs ,
The chiefs compiled with General Brooke's
request , nnd the result was the departure
this morniug of the armed company of young
friendllca. They go to bring them In , if not
In ono way then In another.
The peril which Is anticipated as attending
the important orr.md had , It is thought by
ninny , a great deal to do with the secrecy
maintained In repard to the matter.
William Stcelo , ono of the farm superin
tendents of this agency , hasjust arrived from
Hapld City and brings Intelligence that two
companies of cavalry and 250 armed citizens

Two troops of the Sixth cavalry , comprising
flvo officers and 125 men and horses , all
under the command of Major 1'eiry , went
Into camp on Spring crock during the day.
Several parties of friendly Indians wcro seen ,
but no hostile . A rancher named Wilson
was seen In the early pirtof the day , and
with him were two cowboys. All seemed
greatly excited , and said that they had seen
the Sixth cavalry advancing from ono of the
hills and had hidden themselves , having
Bakcn the party for hostile Indians. Ho re
ported that they hud scon ix party of about
forty hostllcs some eighteen miles to the
south , coining slowly northward. Tlieso
hostllcs had advance guards thrown out and
looked ns though they expected an attack
from cowbova or troops.
Charlie Rivers , n government scout , carao
in late in the evening with n dispatch from
Colonel Han ford and reported that ho was
in the vicinity of the lioitllo camp >
and that 150 lodges ( about seven hundred and
fifty Indians ) have loft there nnd are camped
nt the mouth of the Hidden Hutte creek , on
their way to Pine lildgo agency to surrender
themselves. The rest ( about fifty lodges
or about two hundred and fifty Indians ) are
trying to work their way north toward Choy-
cnno Klver agency and have n largo quantity
of stolen stock with them. A courier was m'
from General Cnrr's cnmpnt Rapid City with
the In formation that in all probability ho
would start from there tomorrow with the
rest of his command and follow up the trail
taken by Major Tuppor nnd would then
branch off north.

Oonlonlfiiitett.1
Kii.KKN.sr , Dec. 12. [ New York llor.ild
Cable Special to TiiEBKU.l This has boon
a rather exciting day. That part of. Cork
that went to bed early hut night got little
sleep beforS o'clock this morning. Purnell's
shoutcrs bavo stronir lungs and so long ns
there was anything to bo made by staying up
they stayed. Pnrnoll appeared In a new guise
today. Ho was called upon early by the sec
retnrles of two labor societies , They told
him they recognized him as their cnlef and
that Davitt was not the father of
tholr movement. Parnell said Davitt
claimed to bo the father of everything.
Soon nfter a small committee of the
national league called nnd word was at once
sent by Parnell to the correspondents , of
whom there wcro about thirty , that ho had
a statement to make. Wo filled the room In
which ho sat. His friends say ho looks well ,
but ho is so thlii bis clothes hang loosely , and
his face Is haggard , his eyes look tired and
his voice Is husity and almost gone. The
exertion of the last couple of weeks has told
terribly on him , but nil his suffering is not
physlcnl. Wh.Uo ostensibly speaking , to the
league commlttco ho really &poko to the cor
respondents. Ho began sitting , hut after
wards stood up. Ho talked slowly as If
weighing each word. The gist of his state
ment is ns follows :
"I have for several months considered the
questions relating to the different bodies of
Irishmen , the position of the national league
Cork nnd the condition of the laborers' move
ment in Cork county , and have considered
how far I or your leader can and ought to
reconcile the interests of the laborers' move
ment with the Interests of the national move
ment. " Ho added that ho did not consider
the task Insuperable. Ills thoughts and In
stincts bad always been with the workingmen -
men of Ireland : It had always been his desire
to have on his sldo the hard-fisted sons of
toll , and ho looked to them for every con
sideration. Ho would return the compliment
fully nnd hoped they would not shirk.
Davitt would have been amused to near his
words taken out of his mouth by tbo man
who always fought against the Introduction
of such n question Into Irish politics. This
Is not the Pnrnell of other days. IIo Is he-
coining absolutely lukewarm In manner nnd
does not carry his bands In his pockets ready
to grasp any chance to gain his ends , and If
Irishmen love any isms they care to
have Parnell advocate , now is the
time. Politics not statesmanship is his
business. Only his tbick-atid-thln adherents
claim that the people of Cork are for him.
By people they understand voters. Ho has
'Shoutcrs and Is likely to hn cj thorn wherever
ho goes , but the tide against him is growing
stronger. In tbo church of St. Peter and St.
Paul , a priest this morning advised his hear
ers to take down the Parnell pictures from
their walls. They have been taken down
from many walls of late and they are no
longer the favorite chromo.
Shouters by the hundred saw him leave
Cork for Kilkenny this afternoon. Thcro
were fifty Queen's college students In the
throng. IIo spoke for u few moments. It
was the same old speech ho felt t. jro of win
ning so long as the people of Ireland were nt
ito
his back. Thcro was n terrific cheer from the
Irish youths. At the small stations on the
0t
way some cheered nnd some groaned. At
Port Arlington the crowd was divided half
cheered and half groaned. Some said to Par-
neil , "May the curse of God meet you. " His
adherents and opponents were almost equally
violent.
There wao a great crowd at the Kilkenny
station. Sixty police made a psssago. The
workingmen's club received him and there
was great cheering ns ho drove to the hotel. I
It was generally admitted ttial there was a
small percentage of voters In the crowd , still
Parnell received much better treatment
than D.ivitt and Healy hero today. Healy
was hooted vigorously , but Davitt not so
much. 'If there are not desperate collisions
before the now members for North Kllkenney
nro oleeted everyone will ho surprised.
It is impossible yet to say bow the election
will result. Both sides nro confident on tbo
surface , but the Parnell sldo can't explain
why and the other side can't ' explain why.
The other sldo has the priests nnd they are
doing effective wsrk. Healy ana Davitt ro
nlono so far. Pailioll has William d ,
Fitzgerald , Mahotoy , O'ICelly , Harrison and
Nolng with htm.
I had nn Interview with Parnell this nftcr-
noon. In It ho said ; "Tho manifesto of the
delegates In America represents the situation
us they Imagine it before f ho split , but not
the situation as it actually was. It Is not
strange that this should bo so Impossible.
Wo could have communicated with thorn but
had no time. It was my desire to have the ;
situation fully explained. I wan ted the whole
party to discuss calmly nil points of dlffor-
enco and permit the country to express its
views and have , cither through elections , eras
as you have witnossol in Dublin and Cork ,
communication between thosoeedere nnd the
delegates In America. But they reply in full
to our communication In a limited short cable
from O'Kclloy to O'Connor , and two or three
other short telegrams. Why so much haste
if the good of the party and tbo love of their
country actuated the secedorsl My object
has been to preserve the unity of the
party. If , after the whole party had con
sidered fully the situation und Ireland had
been given the opportunity of doing the
same , nnd both had demonstrated their
lief in the propriety and necessity of helot
action taken by the scccdors , there would not
bo two parties In Ireland. The wreckers of
the party saw their chance. Wltti O'Brien
and Dillon absent tbo wreckers had reed
weight than with these men hero and forced
the game. These wreckers are the people
whom wo fought when the movement on
which the Irish party originated was born.
They are the whlgs of Irish politics. Their
views have never boon our views , but cir
cumstances were too strong for them and
they accepted ours ; but tuclr discontent has
been long rankling In them and they grasped
the tlrst chance to crcato a split. I nm con
fident of winning. I am certain that 1 have
the people of Ireland -with me. The
result of the election In Kilkenny will cer
tainly bo an Indication of the general
feeling , but not beyond question. It is a
county in which \ny \ views nro not so favorably -
ably entertained as elsewhere , but m splto i of
that belief wo will win. Thcro Is our candi
date , Vincent Scolly , a lamUord In Tlpperary.
IIo bos beeti a bomo-rulo and monoyoil sup

consider tbo day of comfiromlsojpast. It may
be dlfllcult to effect'hilt I am not the ono to
put ! tt out of the question , and If O'Brien
nnd : Dillon want to 800,010 , lu Paris I will bo
glad ] to meet them there. "
Thcro are men In the party with whom
P.irncll , can never bnd ! Intercourse , nnd
when I asked him how the lion and the lamb
lay down together ho intimated that the
laP
people would settle that at the pollsi Par-
neil goes to Waterford tomorrow night and
teSt Tlppornry on Sunday to attend a demon *
stratlon for which great preparations have
been made.
A meeting of some of Hennessey's chief
supporters was held bite tonlglit nt the Im

The meeting of the Nebraska delegation to
recommend n successor to tbo late Judge
James W. Savage as government director of
the Union Pnclllo railroad company was the
longest and most exciting of any heretofore
hold. The names of nlno candidates were
considered , viz : Frank Murphy , J. W. Pad
dock , George L. Miller , Henry W. Yntos ,
Hugh 0. Clark nnd J. N. II. Patrick of
Omaha , nnd W. H. Mungerof Fremont , J. E.
North of Columbus and U. S. Bibb of Beat
rice. Very positive preferences were ex
pressed for the different can&ldatea by the
several members of the delegation nnd dis
agreements wcro developed which it seemed
almost Impossible to harmonize. The mem
bers of the delegation mimed their first , second
end , third and fourth cholooj , and after pro
tracted balloting and consideration it was
found that the easiest candidate to harmonize
on ! was Major J. W. Paddock of Onuha. Ho
was finally unanimously chosen and his name
was accordingly presented in a strong letter
oltc recommendation to the president , subject
tcv the prior recommendation o f J. 11. McColl ,
whoso name was nenln very vigorously urged
us : the first choice of Mobraska If u republican
should bo considered.
Tin ; CUNSUS AND IIKU'I'OUTIOXMENT.
The census committee met this morning nt
10 o'clock for the purpose of listening to the
arguments of the democratic delegation from
the city of Brooklyn , which promised that If
It was given an opportunity It would
show conclusively that there was a good deal
of republican fraud In the enumeration of tbcs
City of Churches. Congressman Felix Camp
bell was to bo the spokesman and bo was to
bo aided by the corporation counsel , and ho
was going to produce volumes of figures with
which to confront and astound Superintend
ent Porter , but Mr. Campbell's showing
proved to ho a complete fiasco. IIo admitted
very rc.idily as soon as he entered the cjin-
mlttco room that no had no evidence what
ever to present , nnd asked that the matter bo
Indollnltely postponed. Congressman Dun-
neil , the chairman of the committee , asked
whntber any effort hud been made to induce
Superintendent Porter to recount the popu
lation , but Mr. Porto'r replied that ho had
never received n solitary word of complaint
from the local authorities of Brooklyn in re
gard to the matter , but , on the contrary , the
greatest satisfaction with the supervisor had
been expressed. ThH was admitted by the
delegation , and It left the room.
This matter Is of interest because the Now
York City and Brooklyn alleged frauds have
been published nil ever the country and a
great ado has been made about allgod at
tempts to deprive that city of state legisla
tion. Mr. Porter has shown very conclusively
that nil the howl over Now York's enumera
tion b unfounded.
The committee , , otter liavlup glvon Now
Yorkuud , Brooklyn men every opportunity-to
make their cases , concluded to wait no longer
before deciding upon n re-apportionment
claim , and they consequently took up , dis
cussed and agreed to the Frank bill , which
provides for a new congress of 358 members.
Under this plan , which has noon heretofore
explained In these dispatches , no state will
lose n member and there will bo n total gala
of twenty-four , of which Nebraika leaus
with a clear gain of three , Illinois , Minnesota
seta , Pennsylvania and Texas como next
with gains "of two each , and the remain
der are scattered among various ( states.
If It shall bo proven that there has boon
fraud or neglect in the matter of enumera
tion In New York city an amendment will bo
added to the bill after It shall have passed ,
ceding ono member if the population In the
Bin pi ro state Is found to bo so much greater
than that reported as to warrant the clmngo.
This renpportionmcnt schema meets with
very general approval on both sides of the
chamber , and aside from the democratic
faction opposition to the hill it Is bollovod
will pass eventually In the shape In which It
will bo reported to "tho house tomorrow ,
The most Important feature is the section
which Is designed to prevent , gerrymandering
t > y providing th.it tlio maximum number in
each district may exceed another , and also
that there shall bo more compactness in the
formation of the district.
A nuxiAi , rnoM SCCIICTARY HUSK.
The attention of Secretary Husk was called
this evening to a dispatch from Chicago In
which It was asserted that ho had been inter
viewed nnd had expressed himself in very
vigorous terms against the so-called reaper
trust , and had said that ho knew that such n
trust existed , because ho had been offered
stock in the concern. Mr. Rusk says tbo
whole story , so far as it connects his ntnno
with It , Is untrue , nnd what would bo called
"a fake" In n newspaper oflico. "I have
been interviewed on no subject' relating to
politics cither In a near or remote way since
the election , " said the secretary , "and I have
persistently refused to express nny opinions
on any political subject. As to the merits of
the question , I do not believe that American
agricultural Implement manufacturer. ? nro
unable to dispose of their products abroad nt
lower prices than they receive at homo. The
story that I have been offered stock In the
concern Is equally false with the others. "

W. IUXOTOV , Dec. 13.--In the senate today
ai number of unimportant bills wciurcportou
from committees and placed on tho.i'nlondur ,
after which Mr. Plumb's resolution , llxlnpf
the hour for dully meetings , win taken up.
It was agreed to after being amended by
striking out the chuiHO for evening sessions ,
and making It tnlto affect nflor tomorrow.
anDi The resolution offered yesterday by Mr ?
Dolph , instructing the committee on priv *
lieges and elections to Inquire and report
whether the right to vote at nny election
for presidential electors , members of cougres ,
legislatures or onicors Is denied to any male
citizen of any state or Is nbrldged except for
participation In the rebellion or ot'ior ' crlnio ,
wns taken up. Air. Dolph said lie particu
larly wanted the committee to glvo attention
to whether some states had not provided lu
their constitutions or laws .such voting quail *
llcntlons as were not permitted by
the fourteenth amendment to the
constitution without . aa noi-Id moment
ol congressional rcincscntntlon. Ho said
the constitution recently adopted In Mis
sissippi did impose such qualification1) and
thoicprcscntntlon of that slate should bo
abridged. Ho sent to the clerk's ' desk ana
had read the recent Inaugural message of
Governor Tlllmau of South Carolina , which ,
h.gi . said , was 1111 ofllcliil declaration that thd
great mass of the colored men of tbo south
were not lit to exorcise thoclcctlvo franchise ;
that the white people of the south were In
control of the stuto governments and pro
posed to maintain control at all hazards.
The propositions showed clearly , Mr. Dolph
saiiJ , that tno colored people of thesoutli
would not bo permitted to vote as long us
they voted the republican ticket or whora
their voting would f.icuro republican control ,
tlSi Mr. Vest moved an amendment ln- >
structlng the committee to Inquire fur
ther , whether by nny state legislation
any citi/en of the United StaU-s was dented
the right to work on public Improvement by
reason of their color. He raid nclauiofrom
a recent , statute of the Oregon republican
legislature authorizing the building of bridges
and providing that none but white laborers
should bo employed on the works. It might
be , Mr. Vest said , that the provision waa ln
tended to exclude Chinese labor , but the Inn-
uUDgo of the statute excluded Mongolian , In
dian and negro. Democratic stnten had never
denied the negro the right to c\in \ his bread
by his honest labor.
Mr , Uolpti replied , and In the further dis
cussion au allusion to Tlllmanls mossugo
brought out n declaration from Mr. Butler
that ho was perfectly willing to bland by tha
Mr , Dop sa o was norme ,
Butl'or himself had threatened the colored
men In his omplov that bo would discharge
them If they voted the republican ticket.
Mr , Butler replied that whoever maJo that
statement was guilty of u deliberate and will
ful falsehood.
Mr. Hoar iiroso and snld he had mailo the
statement , having read within twenty-four
hours Inn public-document the testimony of
the senator from South Carolina before a
committee , in which ho said ho had told the
colored people on his plantation that ho
should dismiss them If they voted the repub
lican ticket.
Mr. Butler Then the remark I made ap
plies of course to the senator from Massa
chusetts.
Mr. Hoar replied that ho was not to bo de
terred from saying what ho hail to m v either
by the manner or the behavior of Mr. Butlor.
The resolution then wont over until tomor *
row.
row.Tho house , bill for a public bulMing at
Davenport , Iii. , wns reported favorably and
placed on the calendar.
Tbo elections bill \vas \ then taken up and
Messrs. lilooilge.lt und WultbaU HJIO'KU in op
position to it.
Mr. Hoar then referred to the Incident of
the morning and had read the testimony In.
qucstliin , which wat from a minority report )
made to the house in 1870. In It Mr. Butler
is ropoited ns sayhift that his gave tickets to
colored < man and told them they had a right
to vote the republican ticket if they pleased }
that they were free men , but If they exer
cised that right nnd imposed laves upon him
that would destroy his propoity und pros
pects ho should throw himself bade on some
rights ho hail nnd see that they left h4 !
plantntlon. Ho Intended to inform himself
how they voted.
The question was asked : "With a view to
turning them off If they voted the republican
tlcketl"
Mr. Butler Not for voting the republican
ticket , If they hud an honest ticket , but for
voting for these thieves and rob
bers. Mr. Butler said this testimony
was garbled. Ho bad never seen
the report before , but said now that bo bad.
never at any tlmo at tempted to inlluenco a
Blnglo negro on his plantation lu the exorclso
of franchise.
Messrs. Hoar and Butler then expressed
the greatest rotpoet for each other and the
matter was dropped.
Mr. Jones of Arkansas took the floor on
the election bill , and the senate adjourned.
