ceived at tlto War department from

to Relieve that tlio troublo at Hear
Lake Is practically over, and tlio
Indians will return to their homos
without furthor troublo. Llko most
of tho other ao-callod Indian uprisings
which havo occurcd during tho Inst
century, tho troublo among tho Chip
powas Is largoly duo to what they
eons Idcrcd a breach of faith on tho
part of tho government In nr
ranging for tholr romoval from
their old reservation and in de
fining to pay them for tho im
provements of tholr farms. Tho fool
ing of antagonism was intensified by
the action of doputy United Statos
marshals, who tho Indians asscrtod,
dragged thorn as witnesses before tho
sourts and left them strandod without
ralleago to return to their homes.
Ulshop Whlpplo, who Is in tho city at
tending tho Episcopal convention,
itatcs that tho salo of liquor to tho
Indians Is largely roponslblo for tho
exolteraont prevailing.
Tho commissioner of Indian affairs
hasgono to tho ncono of tho troublo to
havo a personal talk with tho men.
Tho war dopartraont has ordorod Gen
eral Bacon to uttltzo all tho troops ho
noeds, and to con for with Governor
Clough regarding tho Minnesota vol
unteers oa furlough, who havo ten
dered tholr sorvtccs in enso they shall
bo needed. At tho war department it
is bollovod that tho situation has been
groatly exaggerated and that General
ltacon'a statement that ho had amplo
forces to rep res i tho disturbances was
based upon a psrsonal knowlcdgo of
tho situation. Tho tribe has been a
peaceful ono, most of its members
being ongagod in farming pursuits.
During tho Sioux uprising la 130J they

companion of tho regiment art repre
sented. Thoy will bo stationed mostly
at Farrls and Bomldjl.
A short and nggresslvn campaign,
which will end tho Indian troubles for
all tlmo to cotno, is said to be General
llacon'a plan of action If it comes to
another fight. It was arrived at after
consultations in which Marshal O'Con
nor, Indian Agent Sutherland and
Lieutenant Colonel Harbachtook part.
Thcro wore frequent telegrams to und
from Washington, and It Is rumored
hero that tho doelded stand taken by
Governor Clou?lt had muoh to do with
tho determination of tho war depart

remedies.
Thrco regiments nro to toko part In

Within two wholes, and possibly
within a woek, General Bacon will

NOT MUCH AGAINST KUNKLE,
Officers Think It Will bo Hard (o Convict
the I.awtnire Man.
LAwnKNcn, Kan,, Oct. 11. Tho body
of Mrs. J. J, Kunkol was takon from
the gravo this morning to make an ex
amination regarding tho method of
embalming, Arsenlo was used In tho
embalming process and tho examina
tion was to detormlno that the arsonlo
found in tho stomach was entirely
separate from that used In embalming.
This examination was conducted by
soveral physicians of t.io city and an
analysis will bo made by I'rof. Kdvvard
liartowof tho University of Kansas,
who made the analysis that resultod In
the arrest of Mr. Kunkol.
Mr. Barlow was at work in his lab
oratory this morning but wan unwill
ing to talk about tho result of his
work in tho Kunkel case. Tho nnaly
sis of tho brain and bomo of tho Inter
nal organs of lllrdlo Comlngoro is now
In progress under Mr. llartow's direc
tion and, while it will bo moro diffi
cult to nscertaln tho causo of death in
hor caso than in that of Mrs. Kunkel
on account of tho long tlmo tho body
has lain In tho g.'avc, Htl'l, if tho poi
son wns given in anything liko tho
quantities used in Mrs. Kunkol's caso,
that fact can bo ascertained. Mr.
Bartow thinks it will tulto him till
,noxt wcok to detormlno definitely tho
results of his examination In this caso.
A feeling In favor of Kunkol has de
veloped lu tho last twenty-four hours,
and tho officers now nro oven inclined
to belicvo that it will bo hard to con
vict him of tho charges against him.
This morning a telegram was received
frornSoattlo, Wash;, asking if Kunkel
needed any assistance in any way and
proffering financial or other aid that
might bo nocdod. It is stated that
Mr. Kunkol has decided to assoclato
Judgo Goorgo J. Darker with Judgo
Norton in dofenso of tho caso.
Mrs. Kunkcl's sister told a number
of people when sho was here, nt tho
tlmo hor sister died, that sho believed
Mrs. Kunkol was insane and not re
sponsible for her acts, and that sho
would go on tho witness stand and
testify to that fact. Other friends nnd
relatives of Mrs. Kunkol crc said to bo
willing to swear to tho samo stato of
affairs. This has lod to 1'to belief that
tho defonso for Mr. Kunkol will bo
that Mrs. Kunkel polsono 1 hor daugh
ter and then took tlto samo method to
put an end to her own 11'?. Tho fact
that intimates of tho family will tes
tify that Kunkcl's fumlly relations
wcro pleasant und that thcro was no
motive for him to wish to get his
6tcp-daughtor and wlfo out of tho way
will mako tho defenso's caso a very
strong ono.
SAYS THEY ARE FOOLS,
Geronlrao, the Apaoho Chief, Is Enid to
Have Commeutod on tho UprUlnff.
OttAnA, Nob., Oct. 11. "Tlio Minne
sota Indians will soo that thoy havo
mado a groat mlstako In going on tho
warpath," siys Gcronlmo, tho old
Apaoho chief, one of tho Indians now
in camp at tho Indian congress.
"I havo never been in Minnesota,
but I hear that up thcro and for hun
dreds of miles beyond tho whlto men
aro as many as tho bladc3 of grass. If
that is so, wntcana few poor Indians
do in a flgh!,? Thoy aro making a
great mlstako and nro fools. For
years I fought the whlto men, think
ing that with my few braves I could
kill them all, and that wo would
again havo tho land that our Great
Fathor gavo us and covered with
gamo. I thought that after wo had
killed tho whlto men tho buffalo
deer and antelope would como back.
After I fought nnd lo3t nnd nftor I
traveled over tho country in which tho
whito mnn lives and saw his cities and
tho work that ho had dono, my' heart
was r ""y to burst. I know that tho
race of tho Indian was run."
Asked what ho thought would
eventually become of tho Indian, Gor
onlrao hesitated n moment and then,
po'ntlng to tho West, replied: "Tho
sun rises and shines for a tlmo and
then it goes down, sinking out of
sight, and is lost. So it will bo with
thu Indians.
"When I was a boy my old fathor
told mo that tho Indians were as many
as tho leaves on tho trees, and that
way off in tho North thoy hod many
horses and furs. I nover saw thorn,
but I know that If they w thero
then thoy havo gono now nd tho
whlto man has taken all thoy had. It
will bo only a few years moro until
the Indians will bo heard of no moro,
except In tho books that the whlto
man has written. They aro not th
people that tho Groat Father loves, for
if thoy wcro ho would protect them.
Thoy havJ tried to pleuso him, but
thoy do not know how.
"Schools aro good things for In
dians, but it takes many voars to
chango tho nature of tho Indian. If
an Indian boy goes to sohool nnd
learns to bo llko a whlto boy, he comes
back to .ho agency and thero is noth
ing for him to do but put on a blan
ket and bo llko an Indian again. This
is where the government is to blame.
hen It takes our children away and
educates them It should glvo them
something to do, not turn them looso
to run wild upon tho agonoy. Until
that tlmo comes educating the Indian
is throwing money awoy. What can
an educated Indiun do out In the sago
brush and cactus?
"Thero will be no moro big Indian
wars. Tho Indlan'B fighting days aro
over and thcro is nothing left for him
to do but to bo a beggar and llva on
charity around tho agency."

PARIS A GREAT CAMP.
FRENCH CAPITAL FILLED
WITH SOLDIERS.
If the Bakers Join the Strikers Dread
May Bo Made lu the Forts Dow Men
Are rermaded to Qnlt Work Strike
Still Growing.
New Yonic, Oct. 12. A dispatch to
tho Now York Herald from Paris says:
Paris is slowly taking on the appear
ance of a hugo garrison. Troops aro
to bo scon ovcry where. Detachments
of infantry or cavalry nro on guard at
every spot whero a building is being
constructed or demolished. Every
heap of stones hides a sentry and mln
aturo camps, formed of half a dozen
tents, with stacked rifles, add a pic
turosquo touch of color to tho streets.
All along tho Cours do la Rclnc, the
Champs do Mars aud Champs Elysocs
groups of cuirassiers may bo seen rid
ing about slowly.
Tho soldiers cause no fear in the peo
ple. Even tho strikers hall them with
"Vivo l'rmoo." At soma plnces whero
work is still going on, such as tho ex
position buildings, recalcitrant work
men hobnob, chat, joko and arguo pol
itics with the very troops who aro
thcro to sco they do not molest tho
non-strikers.
As for tho Parisians in genoral, they
seem to look upon tho troops as form
ing part of a spectacle specially ar
ranged for tholr benefit. Etcry family
has brothers or sous in tho army.
Consequently thoro Is a deep nnd sin
cere alfection linking tho pcoplo and
military together. If a crowd of thoso
strikers who hall tho troops with
heartfelt cries of "Vivo 1'armoo" wcro
to bare tholr breasts to rccolvo tho
rlflo balls, tho soldiers, backed by tho
tacit approval of their officers, might
throw up tholr weapons, and, if they
fired at all, would Are in tho air.
Thero arc at this moment on a strike
8,000 navvies, 2,000 laborers, COO cart
ers, 1,000 wharfingers, 5,000 locksmiths,
3,000 masons, 2, COO stonecutters, 3,500
houso painters, 2,500 plumbers, 2,500
carpenters, 2,000 mechanics and 5,500
cabinet makers. In all some A 0,000
strong mon are idle in Paris to-day.
Theso numbers may bo enormously In
creased to-morrow. Not only havo
various participating trades decided to
continuo the strike, but strongly word
ed appeals havo been sent out to those
unions that havo not yet joined.
Among theso is tho railway union.
It is feared, however, that tho Btrlko
may soon spread to this important as
sociation. Already, with a view of
meeting such a mcasuro, tho govern
ment is preparing to utilize a branch
of tho military, while, should tho bak
ers join tho ranks of tho disaffected,
bread may havo to bo mado in the
forts around Paris. Tho government
has taken steps to protect such men as
choose to continuo their work.
Thcro is a growing spirit of oppo
sition among the strikers. They resent
as an attack upon tholr chief strength
tho abstention of any department of
the building trades from their strike.
Whero ocrsuasion has failed to Induce
hcsltati..g workmen to join themamlld
sort of violence has been tried. Some
stonecutters wJrklng upon somo sculp
ture on tho Champs Elysces hotel wero
disagreeably surprised tho other day
to find a group of strikers calmly saw
ing through tho poles supporting the
scaffolding on which thoy wero work
ing. Thoy hastened to got down to
solid earth as quickly as possible
where thoy were Informed thoy must
put on their coats and join tho strikers.
In splto of tho optimistic predictions
of the end of tho strlko being near,
tho strlko continues to spread. The
bricklayers and woodcarvcrs to-day
decided to join tho strikers. Tho city,
however, is perfectly quiet, but tho
enormous Increaso in tho strength of
tho garrison points to tho fact that the
government fears political rather than
labor troubles.
Tho strikers' central committee is a
political nnd a revolutionary organiza
tion and It is engineering the dispute
as if it were a strike of tho proletariat.
No conflict between tho soldiers and
strikers has occurred up to tho present.
Not since 1870 has Paris looked so war
like

Madrid, Oct. 11. Tlio semi-official
Correspondancia to-day, touching up
on tho negotiations now in progress at
Paris, says: "Well informed -lrclee
assert that tho poaco negotiation-, are
not proceeding satisfactorily. Himor
Montero Rlo-i has written asking new

missioners. His letters havo bocn read
at a meeting of tho cablnot and tho
ministers havo agrcod upon tho terms
of tho new instructions whloh will be
sont beforo to-morrow's meeting of the
commissioners. A minister has ox
pressed tho opinion that probably tho
Philippine question will not bo dis
cussed as thu Americans aro also wait
ing for instructions."
Tho miuister of war, General Cor
rca, has received a dispatch from Gen
eral Rlos, the Spanish commander In

victory In tho Vlsayas islands over in
surgents from tho island of Luzon,

tity of ammunition.

Washington, Oct. 11. Secretary Day
sent a cablegram to tho stato depart
ment on Monday regarding tho work
of tho American commissioners, but Ik
was merely routtno In character, and
simply shows that Mr. Day nnd his
colleagues havo completed tho features
of tho agreements which they aro
auxlous tho Spanish commissioners
shall adopt.
In response to tho American do
mands, tho Spanish representatives
have submitted counter domand3, and
ono of theso suggests tho assumption
by tho United States of tho Cuban
debt in return, it is said, for tho an
nexation of Cuba by tho Unltod States.
Fuillng in this, tho Spanish represent
atives are anxious that tho Cuban debt
shall bo borne by tho Cubans, with a
guarantee of somo kind from this coun
try. From information which tho author
ities havo received they say thoy havo
no doubt that Spain will attempt to
fasten tho Philippine debt upon the
United States, and this information
would seem to iudlcato that
Spain has in mind a proposition which
may eventually bo submitted to this
government for tlio UniV'd States to
tako all of tho Philippines, shoulder
the Philippine debt and glvo
her important advantages, com
mercial und otherwise, in tho Eastern
islands. If Spain has such a proposi
tion in view sho may as well know
that It will bo a wasto of tlmo for her
to present it This government will
nccept no dobts, nor will it guarantee
tho payment of tho Cuban debt,
directly or indirectly. Tho instruc
tions of tho American commissioners
are positive on this point.
BLANCO'S TIME IN CUBA SHORT
The fleneral and All IIU Troopi Hut
Be Ont by Deoomber I,
Washington, Oct. 12. No informa
tion, officially, has boon recolved by
this government to tho effect that Gen
eral Blanco desires four months longer
in which to evacuato Cuba. Adjutant
General Corbln said to-day: "We shall
glvo Blanco until December 1 to loave
tho island. On that dato tho United
States expects that ho and all tho
Spaniards who intend to leave will
have gono. Six weeks or two months
ought to bo sufficient tlmo for htm to
removo his army. Spain Is surely not
so bankrupt as not to bo able to engage
transports onough to carry away all of
her troops by that tlmo. It is highly
nccossary that this government gain
full posieBslonof Cuba at tho earliest
posslblo moment. Thoro must be
changes made In tho civil government
of tho island and whllo tho cool weather
prevails wo must improvo tho sanitary
conditions which havo long beon
such n monaco to hoalth. At present
tho rcvenups of tho Island aro going
Into tho coffers of Spain. No Cuban
gets tho benefit of a single dollar of It.
The island no longor belongs to Spain
and tho pcoplo of tho island aro en
titled to tho revenues."
It was statod by an official of the
war department that this govornmont
would bo in full possession of the
island of Porto Rico Octobor 13 by a
distinct agrcomsnt with tho Spanish
military authorities.
