I3:na;tra FRESH NEWS OF THE DAY. Information Gleaned From All Quarters of the Universe. LATEST INDIAN NEWS. THE PRESENCE OF TROOPS HAS A QUIETING EFECT. Gen. Brooke G-ttInc Tlilnpi la Beadlaess InCaManOutbrftk Khould Occur Set tlers Also l'reparinr Themselves Gea. Miles Will Tolerate NoNvUtmnce. RusnviLLE, Nob.. Nov. 22. Word from tbo Pino Kidge agency last night Is to the effect that mat ten there have assumed more satisfactory 6hapc. Thcro is now no immediate prospects of a conflict with the Indians. Settlers at and near tbo agency feel perfectly safe In the presence of the troops now there, and do not anticipate the prou'ilsed annihilation albns flie Cheyenne river in Dakota. Something of a stampede I occurred yesterday and settlers have flocked into Harrison and Gordon. Their uneasi ness wa caused by fires along the Cheyenne i river the night before. I Gen. Itrooke has sent an order to Fort Robinson to have all ammunition stored ! there for the Hotchklss gun forwarded to j Pine Ridge. His plan is to have all In read ! lacss in ca-c an outbreak occur. Orders I have been sent to all friendly In- dians to appear at the agency at once. They are gathering in rapidly. Then when the good and bad In dians are separated tiie Indian police will bo tent out to stop the "ghost" dances at the various villages. If the police fall to accomplish this the troops will becaPedinto action. It is thought, though, that the dancing will be stopped without bl.Kd-hed. Tnreats of violence are not Indulged in as they were before the arrival of the troops, and but little is now heard of the Indians' Intention to annihilate the white race. Red Cloud reached the Pine Ridge agency yesterday. He came in order to join In the celebration of the return of the "Wild West" Indian, who arrived the night before. Ho denies that he took part in the dunce at Wounded Knee or that he gave it his coun tenance. On the contrary, he claims he has been unable to leavo his house, and that he counseled his followers to desist from danc ing. Little credence Is given the wily chief's story, as he is known to be an Invet erate liar. Jack Red Cloud, his son, says the great father has broken faith by send ing tro:ps on to the reservation. AH indi cations arc that the end of the trouble at Pine Ridge is close at hand. Settlers I'rr paring Themselves. Lincoln. Nov. 22. Got. Tl.ayer said to day that he was receiving numerous offers of service from Xebraskans in different parts of the state for the prospective Indian war, but at present he had no need of them and probably would not, as the federal au thorities would be able to protect the bor ders, as well as suppress the outbreak, if one occurred. Guns and ammunition have been sent to the towns along the northern border, and all the Nebraska companies in that part of the state have been supplied with ammunition and instructed to hold themselves in readiness foractiosrat a mo ment's notice. Excitement at not Springs. Hot Springs. S. D., Nov. 22. There is great excitement here over the arrival of a lx)dy of Indians claiming the Messiah, who has promised to restore the hot springs to the Sioux nation, has sent them here to await delivery. Citizens are arming them selves. the Whole Army in Readiness. Washington, Nov. 22 Acting Indian Commissioner Belt yesterday afternoon re ceived a telegram from Special Agent Cooper, at the Pine Ridge agency, saying: "The Indians are still dancing. The police report that thirty Rosebud Indians have arrived at this reservation and COO or 700 more are euroute to the agency. We hope to settle this Indian craze without blood shed. All kinds of rumors are In circula tion." Yesterday the following telegram was re ceived at the war department from Gen. Miles: "The number of Indians going from the Rosebud agency to the Pine Ridge agency Is increasing. Reliable advices show that the Messiah craze Is cxtendin; to our Indinns near the mountain border and between tbo Sioux nation and the Canadian border." Secretary Froctor carried the dispatches to the cabinet meeting and they formed the subject of discussion. Secretary Proctor says the suggestion made by Gen. Miles, that the troops In other divisions than his own command be gotten in readiness to reinforce him. has already been antici pated. Orders have been sent to the com manding officers of troops as far south as Texas and Arizona and as far west as Cali fornia to prepare men for immediate move ment if emergency arises. In any event, it is the intention of thodepartmentto heavily reinforce the troops In the Dakotas during tbo winter, and they will be moved in from other divisions from time to tim In this way It Is expected the department will be able toman an overwhelming force at the azencles where the excitement Is at its height, so as to effectually suppress the Indian uprising In the spring time. MaJ. Wright, who was yesterday rein stated a agent at the Rosebud agency, has left for that reservation. He said in his opinion that if a few of therhglcad2rs were locked up the excitement would be apt to dio out. He does not attribute the present trouble entirely to the religious craze, al though he thinks some of the Indians have been deluded into belief In the Messiah. He savs this storv about the conr.nc of the j Messiah was started mainly among the nou- I progressive Indians, led by such men as Sitting Bull and Red Cloud. These men were deposed as chiefs because they opposed the recent sile to the government or a part of the Sioux reservation and any other movement which was in the line of progress. The religious craze was originated by them to regain their control over the people. Bad crops and short rations were also important factors. If the leaders can be gottqp out of the way the others may quiet down. Gen. Miles Will Tolerate No Nonsense. Chicago, Nov. 22. In an interview yes terday afternoon. Gen. Miles said he bad no further word from Gen. Brooke, but he thought the latter had beyond all doubt given the Indians to understand that ne is there for the purpose of protecting lives and property, and God help the first Indian who makes a break. "It is not my intention," said Gen. Miles, "to tolerate any nonsense. I will tell you further that so far as regards the present ample supply of ammunition and the best patterns of Winchester rifles with which I the Indians are armed, that somebody up I in the northwest country is making a busi- j ness of furnishnj these and it will not be many days before I shall know just how this business is accomplished." I Adjt.-Gen. Williams said last evening j that a telegram had been received from ' Gen. Brooke, at Pine Ridge, saying his scheme for inducing the disloyal Sioux to abandon their tribe and join the loyals is working well, and he hopes socn to have the hostile crowd broken up. The report of the officer- in charge at the Rosebud agency, however, Is cot so cncouraglag. He telegraphs that when the forces under his command moved sear the Indians' camp yesterday they retreated back fifteen miles, and at night held "ghost" dances and worked up -uch a frenzy that some out- ! break may occur before to-night, j Headquarters was also advised that Sit I ting Bull bad been sending out requests to : Sioux Indians, even In Canada. Indian ter ritory and as far west as Wyoalnj, tc ioln lfclsfcrcM. 8sUuia:e4tTi Urgi sua- ber of Indians who have keen educated by the government In the east. If the Indians care to do so they can do much damage be fore being checked. Of course, their career would be short, but amends could never be made for the property or lives they might destroy. Oa the SI ax BesarratioB. Minneapolis. Nor. 22. The Tribune's correspondence from Mandan, N. D., con tains information from the Sioux reserva tion from two reliable sources that the chances are against an Immediate uprising unless Sitting Bull makes up his mind that it would pay. Sitting Bull would bo ar rested and put in Irons, but the agents are afraid that this would precipitate trouble. Agent McLaughlin has lost control of Bull and the other leaders. At Bull's camp the dance keeps up day and night. - The In dians with Sitting Bull do not welcome even friendly whites, and will not shake hands with them. They say all the white men will be turned into buffalo and catfish in the spring. Agent McLaughlin sent some Indian police to arrest refractory Indians, and in stead of obeying his orders they threw off their clothes and joined in the dance. They returned to the agency without their pris oners and offered no excuse. Sitting Bull is jealous of the increase of cattle on the Can non Ball river belonging to white settlers. He teaches his followers that if a raid is made on the settlers and they are killed the Indians can surrender on the appearance of soldiers and be forgiven. Then, because of the fate of the former settlers, no new ones will come there. Indians who have accumulated property are opposed to the proposed uprising. The young bucks who have nothing and the older ones who are lazy, led by Sitting Bull, are causing the trouble. i:ail Outlook at Fort Rmnett. Pierre, S. D.. Nov. 22. Lieut. Hall, of Fort Bennett, arrived hero s'esterday and reports thrcatcnlugs on the part of the In dians carrying on the ghost dance to resist any interruption by force of arms. Indian policemen sent to insist upon their stoppage of the dance were disarmed and obliged to return to the fort. An extra company of soldiers has been from Fort Sully to Fort Bennett, and preparations made In case of trouble. There are fears that an open out break may occur at any time, but the In dians have been accustomed to government control so long that it Is considered rather doubtful that they will attempt any vio lence. Heading for the Big Horn Country. Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov. 22. Frank Ger uard, a government scout stationed at Fort Mclfinney, reports renegade Sioux and Cheycnncs heading for the Big Horn moun tains. They are leaving the Dakota reser vations as the result of the Messiah agita tion. The reds are well mounted and armed, and Geruard Intimates that there is imminent peril. On receipt of tbo news Gov. Warren wired a protest to Gen. Brooke against the removal of the cavalry from Fort McKinney. Settlers Reported K'lled. Aberdeen, S. D., Nov. 22. Advices from Eureka state that settlers in Emmons and Campbell counties arc flocking into that place on account of a rumor that the Sioux will take the war path. Lagrace. on the Missouri is, completely depopulated. It is reported this morning that two men bad been shot and scalped by the Indians In Campbell county, but the story Is not cred ited here. The people are greatly excited and are appealing to Gov. Mellette for arms and ammunition. North Dakota Cltizeas Alarmed. Minneapolis, Nov. 22. The Journal's Mandan, N. D., special says: The sheriff this morning received a telegram from Sims, a town forty miles west, stating that the people are coming in from Muddy and Heart rivers, having been w arncd by the Siouxs to look out for themselves The sheriff at once sent guns to Sims and Hebron. Halloran, the commanding officer at Fort Abraham Lincoln, maintains there is no ground for alarm. THE DRESSED BEEF WAR. Two Bis Syndicates Trying; to Cut Each Other's Throats. CniCAGO, Nov. 22. It is stated on good authority that the United States Yards and Transit company have declared war en Armour, Swift, Morris & Libby, the "big four" packers, who recently purchased a large tract of land in Indiana for the pur pose of erecting stock yards in competition with the Union Stock yards of Chicago. The latter corporation proposes to fight the big four, backed by the Van dcrbilts, of the New York, and the Thayer, of London. Already plans have been pre sented for the erection of the largest dressed beef establishment in the world. The new house will be located on a 100-acre section of land northwest of the present stock yards. This land was recently pur chased for the sum of S600.000. The plant will cost from $5,000,000 to f 7,000,00. In addition to this there will be constructed a new line of refrigerator cars. The esti mated cost of the improvement is in excess of S10,000,OCO. In an interview last night Mr. Armour said he bud heard that the United States Yards and Transit company proposed to establish an immense dressed beef houe, buthewasuot at all dismayed. "There is an immense field in the dressed beef trade," he said, "and the world is large enough for another drtsscd beef house." It is generally understood that Michael Cudahy, who recently dissolved partnership with Mr. Armour, is to be at the head of the new company. RUSHING TO BERLIN. Many American Physicians Anxious to .Learn About the Consumption Cure. New York, Nov. 22. Dr. D. O. Edson, brother of Dr. Cyrus Edson of the health ' department, has sailed for Europe, where be will spend the winter in mastering the Koch method of inoculation for consump tion for the benefit of a sanitarium which Is to be opened here by a syndicate of phy sicians, beaded by Dr. n. II. Cuftls. He will begin to ship virus as soon as he reaches Berlin. Other physicians who sailed on the Normannia to study Koch's method were Dr. James Guitcras, of Philadelphia, Dr. Ludwig Weiss and Dr. G. B. Bettinldi Moise. Dr. Wesley Miller made a presentment at the health department to-day of his claims to be considered the originator of inocula tion for consumption. According to his statement, as long ago as 1ST3 ba invented a process of Inoculation with virus taken from calves which had been inoculated with the tissue of cows suffering from tubercu losis. He says he has Inoculated a half dozen patients in the incipient stages of consumption, apparently with beneficial re sults. IN A MEXICAN COURT. Mrs. McCabe on Trial for Murdering Max Steia. San Antonio, Tex., Nov. 22. The trial of Mrs. Inez McCabe was begun at Meta moras, Mexico, on the l?th and is pro gressing with the slowness characteris tic of Mexioan courts. Mrs. McCabe is the woman who six or eight months ago shot and killed Judge Max Stein, of Stars county, Texas, in the town "acroes the Bio Grande during the progress of the Fiettas. She gave as ber reason -for the deed that Judge Stein had frequently Insulted her and was dogging her steps da the night of the shooting. The woman, who Is about 2S, has been in a Mexican prison since the shooting. Her trial will probably occupy several weeks. Died cr Bright Dlsra-tr. Boston, Nov. 22. Fire Commissioner R. F.

AairiMThlt AdvleA Attract si j Bfach Attention Both la This Country and Abroad. London, Nov. 22. Michael Davitt, the father of the Irish land league, has thrown a bomshell into the ranks of the national ists by asserting in hlB new paper, the Labor IFbrM, that Mr. Parnell finds himself under a moral cloud, brought Into the at mosphere of his life by himself; that the crisis Into which he has plunged the home rule movement is the gravest with which it bas been confronted for the last ten years, and that the only course for the Irish leader to pursue Is for him to efface himself from public life until he can legally marry Mrs. O'Sbca. The Labor World asks: "Is the people's support of the home rule movement to be Imperiled by the refusal of Mr. Par nell to separate his personality from the interests of home rule?" Mr. Parnell. the article continues, cannot plead ignorance ( of the feeling of the liberal party regarding his new position. The Iabor World main tains that those who argue that the control of the Irish party is the sole affair of the Irish people, and that nothing will be in volved or jeopardized if they do not repudl- ' ate Parnell's leadership, unconsciously play into the hands of the enemies of home rule. "Others," the paper continues, "with sur passing, extraordinary ignorance of tbo necessities of this political crisis, say that Parnell, as a protectant. Is not morally re- , sponsible to the Catholics. Those who ad- . vance the latter argument are shaking the very foundations upon which home rule stands in England. Mr. Parnell Is asked to make a small sacrifice in return for the sac rifices that a confiding and generous peo ple have made for him. He must not con- ' slder his own political future in this crisis, 1 but what is the best course to adopt in the Interest of home rule in England. He must remember that be defied Irish popular scn- 1 timent when he rode roughshod over the feelings and opinions of his own party when, ' in 1S5G, in the presence of another serious 1 crisis, be thrust O'Shea upon the electors of Gain ay. The wounds thereby Inflicted upon the minds of his ablest followers are yet unhealed. Loyalty to the union, fidel ity to the cause, compelled his colleagues to gulp down their Indignation. Will Mr. Parnell now ask a similar sacrifice from his home rule friends in England?" Davltt's advice to Mr. Parnell Is attract- ing more attention titan any similar utter ance on this subject owing to Davltt's un doubted freedom from prejudice and his i great reputation for fairness in such dis cussions. It is quite generally considered that Mr. Davitt has confronted the grave ! question iu a manly fashion, opposing him self to the hysterical resolutions of the league to stand by an individual at any cost to the community. Davitt is probably the only one of the Irish leaders who could ! give such advice at this juncture without 1 incurring the suspicion of selfish motives. He is wholly out of the arena of political strife and is pledged to confine his influence , to literary propaganda. His opinion that , Mr. Parnell should temporarily efface him self is thought by close observers to reflect the sentiment of the masses of people out side of active politics. SPARKS FROM THE WIRES. TnERE will be a winter race meeting at Hot Springs, Ark., beginning Jan. 6. It is expected to make Hot Springs a winter re sort for racing stables. W. S. Wharton, of Chicago, who fled from that, city recently, leaving behind debts estimated at S.IO.OOO to $100,000, bas been arrested in Philadelphia. At Charlotte. Mich.. Edwin Seabolt, a day laborer, shot bis wife and then committed suicide. The woman is still alive and may recover. Family troubles caused the sboot iug. Buholars entered the house of John An derson, at Oil City, Pa., and bound him, his wife and stepdaughters. He was then bru tally kicked and the woman beaten into in sensibility. S. W. Allerton, the Chicago packer, ad mits that he is about to engage in the ship ment of cattle in palace stock cars on an extensive scale. He has decided to bulk! 1.000 cars as a starter. At Lima, O., Mary Shull has recovered 81,000 iu a breach of promise suit against Adolbert Lehman. Mary shouted for Cleve land, aud Lehman, being a staunch repub lican, refused to marry her. The postoffioe department bas made ar rangements for a new fast mail train that for speed will beat all the efforts hereto fore mado In that line. It will cover the distance between New York and Chicago in just tweuty-four hours. The legislative committee appointed to investigate the methods of the late board of public Improvement's office in Cincinnati has began its examination of wituesses. Nothing of interest bas yet been developed. The Baptist missions steamboat Peace, which was stationed on the upper Congo river, has been confiscated by the officers of the Congo State on the ground that it is re quired for state purposes on the Kassiac river. A remarkable surgical operation was performed in New York upon Judab Ual prin, a Russian. It is thought it is the first of its kind ever performed in this country. The operation was the removal of the en tire left arm, shoulder blado and collar bone and the muscles attached thereto. THE MARKETS. dIoux City iavt Stock. Union Stock Yards. Sioux Cmr. Nov. 22. The market showed a strong disposi tion to go 5c higher this morning. Bids were made on a much superior class of stuff and values held up a good nickel on choice hogs, but steady on common. The average cost of hogs was $3.G&3.60 and a close with a 7.1c top. Cattle Estimated receipts, 300. The market opened with a good run of yearlings to-day. Local butchers were looking for good cow stuff, but the stuff in the yards hardly answered their purpose, and there ere few sales made. Good veals were in strong demand. Steers were not desirable stuff. Tailings found no buyers whatever. Chicago Ore Stock. Chicago, Nov. 22. Cattle Receipts, 11.000. Market unchanged. Hogs Receipts, 14,000.

Legitimate Business Hardly Affected by the Recent Flurry In Stocks -The Volume orTrade SUU Ahead of Previous Yeafs. New YonK,- Nov. 22. R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Review of trade says: The marvel to-day is that the business world has been able to stand with so little disturbance thus far. Such shock and strain as the past two weeks have brought, with the assets of the largest commercial banking house in Great Britain turned over to the Bank of Eng land, with several stock failures here and one at Pnlladclphla and some savings banks beseiged by Ignorant depositors in a panic the legitimate business of the country has hardly been affected nt all as yet. The stringency bas affected some buy ing, the difficulty of making foreh n ex change threatens to retard the movement of cotton, and a more conservative temper is seen in trading, but everything thus far indicates a sounder condition of legitimate business than many supposed. The collapse of many great speculations has brought heavy losses, but the public has not been tak ing much part in such operations. It may be bepctitjhat the, financial Institutions, forced at last to drop speculations whfcbaD"-" sorbed enormous capital, will have become more available after the storm has passed for the use of Industry and commerce. British losses by the shrinkage In South American stocks, nitrates, cedulas and South African securities are estimated at $439,000,000; the depression in American stocks since last spring has involved a loss of more than $200,000,000, and in wheat and other products losses have been heavy; but the number of failures up to this time has been smaller than was apprehended. While the money markets are generally tight, there Is still no unusual complaint as to collections, though renewals and redis counts have been large. The volume of business continues to ex. ceed that of any previous year at all clear ing houses outside of New York about 18J5 per cent for the month thus far. Exports have been checked at New Yoik. falling 9 per cent, below last year's for the month, but the imports here In half of November exceed last year's by 29 per cent. Prices are yielding, which will help exports of products. Wheat bas fallen 4 cents during the week, corn about 2 cents and oats 2 cents. Sales of 45,000,000 bushels of wheat here indicate large liquidation. Cotton lias fallen i cent, coffee a )J cent, oil i cents, pork 75 cents per barrel aud bogs 30 cents per 100 pounds. Sugar Is also '9 cent lower. Mil Is demoralized, lead weaker, and no takers arc reported for copper at lCJi cents. The general average of prices has fallen 1 per cent this month, but Is still about 7 per cent above that of the same date last year. Yet neither the shrinkage in prices nor the stringency in the money market can bo attributed to the operations of the treas ury, which has put out during the week $2,300,000 more of the new silver notes while taking in only 3200,000 of other forms of money. The volume of currency In circu lation outside the treasury Is now over $1,500,000,000 against $1,413,000,000 a year ago, but there are very few Interior markets at which more Or less stringency is not re ported. Baltimore, Pittsburg and Galves ton are exceptions, being well supplied; but Chicago aud meet other points, while the demand is sharp, no trouble Is reported. Reports cf trade from other states are en couraging. The south is moving the larg est crop of cotton ever grown, and while ex change causes some embarrassment, the movement is rapid. Sugar comes In largely at good prices, and the receipts of molasses at New Orleans are liberal at 6omo decline, with moderate receipts of rice. Trade is healthy at Memphis, Louisville, Atlanta and Galveston, although in Texas lower prices cause some country failures. Balti more notes uo disturbance because of east ern trouble, and'at St. Louis trade in all lines is good with bright prospects. Trade at Denver and Kansas City is fair; at St. Paul, active, though a money pressure Is felt; at Milwaukee and Detroit, good, except that mild weather checks retail trade and the same caue ef fects the shoe trade at Cleveland: Cincin nati reports manufacturers busy, dry goods fairly active, and the carriage trade closing a very profitable season; Pittsburg notes fair business at the mills, no change In Irou or steel, and a good trade in glasn. Of the great centers Chicago fares the best, feel ing eastern troubles little. The movement of wheat and corn Is slightly less than for the same week last year; cured meats, lard, butter and cheese larger, and oats nearly double, but in dressed beef and hides there is a heavy decline. The dry goods trade equals last year and the trade 'in clothing and shoes is cuding a profitable season. Even at Boston and Philadelphia the great failures are felt less in commercial CiVclcs than might have been expected. At Philadelphia money is tight and com mercial paper almost unsaleable, but the trade In wool improves. In groceries trade is good, though in tea and coffee dull; in produce trade is fair, though collections are slow. Boston notes a very quiet wool market. Lumber Is in very fair demand, and prices of boots and shoes are firm, though some grades of leather aro lower aud hides are depressed. On the whole, the commercial outlook Is de cidedly more favorable than might have been expected, and while the demand for iron and rails is slack, buyers holding off as' far as possible, the producers of the finished form of Iron and steel are generally well occupied and prices do not decline. The business failures occuring through out the country during the past seven days number 274, cs compared with 266 last week. For the corresponding week of last year tbo figures were 277.

Grand Rapids Youths Who Inaugurated a ltelgnlot Terror. Grand Rapids. Mich., Nov. 21. The Holy Terror" gang was broken up to-day by the police. The terrors were seven small boys, all of respectable families, who had rigged up an old shed as their den, and in it shared a lot of plunder, stolen within tho past mouthWrom stores and houses. The shanty was supplied with old furniture, all stolen. The walls were cov ered with obscene pictures, and a bushel of watches, revolvers, knives, etc.. were found concealed, besides a lot of cigars, pipes and cigarettes. Bob Bowen, aged 15, was chief of the "Terrors," and his word among the others was law. They had a typewritten code of rules hung up, among them being: "If any Terror enter the Shanty with muddy feet, ho is fined one cent;" "If ho don't mind the Leader, he is Suspended five Days;" "If any Terror Squeals, he Is fired: "If ho don't divide his Swtts and Solid food, he is fired."

The Chief Secretary Says the Habits or the People Must Be Changed. London, Nov. 1. Mr. Balfour, chief secretary for Ireland, speaking at Grimsby last night expressed his gratification at the reception he had met with in his tour or Ireland. Ho said tho priests talked like rational men of the troubles of their people, and he did not attempt to bribe them into any surrender of their conscientious opin ions." They met him with courtesy and kindness, in a manner far different from that of the Dublin politicians who did not represent Irish opinion. If the condition of the peasants was to be bettered it mut be by making them better farmers and fisher men. Tho problem of the present winter and the problem of the future mu-t be faced. It would be of little use to pro- vide for immediate distress unless perma nent amelioration was had in view. Some thing moro than money and something more than the relief ufforded by public works, was required. It was necessary to effect a change In the habits cf the people. He be lieved such a change was po-slule. but It would necessarily be a slow process. HE WAS A POLISH SPY. Sibtrian Exiles Discover an Emissary of the Czar In Their Midst. ! Minneapolis, Nov. 21.
