Sunfrnuiclsco .Morning Call. Major General Schofiold to ojCallrepor ter , yesterday , in relation to Uio disposi tion of General Crook's captive\Chirica- haus , that there was a umvaiial , mis understanding , of that and other impor tant matters of the campaign , both in the minds of tlio general public and of the several officials of the War and Interior Departments. In the first place they seem to imagine that the campaign is concluded , whereas it is not. A number of families , and some of the warriors , with their white boy captive , Charley McComas , are still secreted in the Sierra Madre , and are to bo brought back tc thhi Inain body with General Crook , at his station at Prescott , A. T. , whore ho isdi expected to arrive to day. About tou dnys ago ho sent out a party with n iiuiii- { bei-of Cliiricahuas to try and find and bring back the remainder of the tridi from , their mountain retreat , and until this j is done the campaign will not bo over. The Indians surrendered tlioiu- first : had been treated in a manner intl mating that they would bo hold resposi bio : for their acts , the others , instead o following their example , would have fought till the last was killed , The Cap tives have not been disarmed , and duiij i too party aunt for-thu nuns'iin ; : .firr3i\ . of the baud , are some of the most ac countable ollenders , the policy being to instil the confidence in the Chiricohaus that they will not bo held rcsponsblo for their deeds , for were such their belief now , or after being placed on the reser vation , they would desert to tlio dills and gorges , necessitating another ni ht , to end only in their extermination. When the remainder of the bund are brought in by the searching party , and General Crook has made out his campaign report for the War Department , which ho can not do until thoy.aro , it will then bo de cided what disposition theru will bo made of the Cliiricahuas , but not until then , as the decision must follow the ollicial re port , which may not bo rendered for some weeks yet. All the statements re ported concerning their disposition can until that time bo but pematurp conjoct- : upcs. Tlfo best plan will bo to leave the Indians in charge of General Crook , iis ho rcomondcd , and not under the Interi or Department , as was reported , and which report was redeived with not a lit tle displeasure by General Crook , as lie partly evidenced in his telegram concern ing the matter. Secretary Teller is re ported iu a dispatch as having stated that the Indians should not go upon the res ) ervation , bo cause there was not sufi"i- cient appropriation for their support , but the War Department , ho thought , which had § 27,000 at its disposal for the sup- port of Indian prisoners should corral and tame them , and moreover , that put- ting them upon a reservation would prac tically be turning thorn loose , becaus they would only remain until next spring , when they would go on the warpath a- gain. Ho also said that ho did not think that there would bo any dissagrcoment between himself and the secretapy of war as to the disposition of the Indians , and when Crook understood the circumstan ces he would not ask to have them placed on the reservation. It is likely that lie matter will bo arraingod harmoniously , but not when the circumstances shall be under stood by Crook , but when the Sec taries skall nderstand them as Crook does. Ho has lived among the difioron ! tribes until ho knows almost every warier rior , and understands their every clmrnc - teristic , and his experiences entitles his never mistaken judgement to proper jn- sideration. His private letters to Major General Sehpfiold before the campaign began regarding his future actions and these of the CJiiricahuas , and the fi nal result , arc all proofs of this , as they wore prophetic in every particular of what afterward occurred. As regards the appropriation for the Indians' maintenance - tonanco on the reservation , the War De partment will provide it. And as to their going on the warpath in the spring , General Crook's argument in his Lite dis patches of having formally subjugated 0,000 Apaches , whg wwuld now lend jeal ous assistanto in guarding thu handful fof Chiricahues , is sufficiently convincing contradiction. General Schofiold also sta ted that ho doubted the report that thu Mexican authorities demanded > the sur render to them by Crook of the Indian bucks because they were taken captive on Mexican Soil. Indian Agent Wilcox is reported as having said ho believed the demand was just and hoped it would bu complied with. If the demand was made | it was unjust , for the reaon that bj agreement with MoxicoGonorul Crook had authority to chose and fight the Indiani on Mexican soil , and as a result to take and retain the prisoners of the war , and their custody certainly shall remain with the United States.

Estimating thn mark nt 25 conU > , this ii equal to JSl,2riO,000 of our money. For a good many yrars Prussia has steadily pursued the policy of absorbing the rail ways within her dominion owned by corpo rations. Of all the lines open to trxfllo flvo years ngo the State owned 11,185 miles , flvS against 5,81) ) 4 miles owned and o | > cratcd bymi corporations. There wore 2,155 other miles owned by corporations , but under State administration. Tlio Stnto had then nearly , one-half of the railroads under its control. Of the 1,235 miles then under construction , but not in operation , the State owned 100 miles and managed 200 other miles , while corporations owned and managed 885 miles. Tlio average cost of all the Prussian railways was f 105,716 per mllo. At this rate the recent purchase will give the State 780 more miles of road and ftko that much out of the hand of the cor- orations. It will give the State , together 1th the roads it controls but docs not yet bsolutoly own , the management of more han half the Prussian railway system. If a railroad pays a corporation it sliouhl also iay the State , the only doubt about it boiug vhcther a Government can as well manage , ind as cheaply , the business as the eorpo- ation can. That Prussia loses nothing by icr Investment in railroads Is clear , from ho fact that she is .still purchasing more of .hem , after a good many years' experience. in 1870 very nearly one-fourth of all the latioual revenues eamo from Government railways. Of course there were oxpendl- urcs for operating the roads and keeping them in repairs to bo reduced from the gross proceeds ; but if there had been no profit wo should not have heard of this last investment of more than $81,000,000. The advantage of the State as the owner and operator of a railroad over any corpo ration is not dilllcult to explain , In the first place , the State , if of first-class urcdit , like Russia , England or the United States can borrow money to purchase u railroad at from U to 3 per cent. The strongest cor poration must pay from 5 to 0 per cent. , in this country and not less than 4 } percent. in Europe. The difference will average 2 per cent. In favor of the Stato. On an in- vpaHpnntof $81.000,00tthis ( makes aycar-s j ly difforanco of # 1,020,000 against the 'cor- poration. If the QoYornmcnt is honest careful of the rights and interests of tlio people and able to manage the road as well as a corporation can , this $1,020,000 > so much saved to tlio people. In tlio next place the Government road is not taxed while the corporation road is. Tlio tax on corporation railways in Prussia amounted to more than $1,100,000 in 1878. These two points conceded , as they .surely must bo , it follows that the State , as the owner and operator of the railways , can always afford lower rates of transportation than any corporation in competition with the Stato. All great railways are built on the credit > system. The corporal ion plans a road era a system on a pro'iablo ' cost of $100,000- 0by 000. The money is raked , generally , by bonding the road and its properties as the work progresses. The bonds usually run unas at 0 per cent. If they cover as much as the cost of the road , that amounts to a de duction of 10,000,000 a year from the earn ings , after paying all operating expenses. Now the Government con do the same amount of construction on capital borrow ed nt 3 per cent. , which gives it the enor mous advantage of fl,000,000 ) a year , over the corporation. If the corporation its just taxes , say no more than 1 percent. the Government's advantage amounts tear f4,000,000 11 year. All the corporation ar guments against Government ownership rests on the assumption that It would en gender political corruption and add to thorn too great increase of power in the Govern ment. But it is difficult to see by what means political corruption could be carried to a greater extent than the corporations have carried it , mid it is certainly better that power should bo lodged in the Govern ment of the State than hi the corporations. In this country wo sometimes have one other objection to State ownership that the State's agent could not conduct the business as well as the corporation1 ! ) . The SUCCCM of the Prussian system ought to isl- Iciico this objection. If the State's agent can mobilize , equip , provision and arm half o million bolillers for four years ; If they can conduct the vast ? and intricate postal system over hundreds of thousands of miles of route , there is no reason to think they could not inanago any number i of miles of railway as well as the corpora- tlons do.

The live1 Block market has again been adversely affected this wctfk by the general depression in food staples coupled with liberal receipts. Cattle have not lost greatly in price but there is a strong ellbrt on the part of buyers to force further concessions and this hat rendered the trade slow for nil" but the most desirable lots. Tlio receipts have been somewhat in excess of last week which was not at all needed. Of really good fat shipping.stock the offer ings have not been excessive , and such have generally found ready sale , but poor grassy cattle formed a largo shnro of the supply aild they have been in slow demnnd nt a lower range. Rough and half fat lots were much neglected. The gap between good and poor stock is per ceptibly widening. Range cattle have hold up exceptionally well during the week , but suffered with other grades dur ing the past week , being then more plon * tifnl tcixn hitherto. A largo volume of business has been done during the week , canning operations being very active , quotations range nt $5@0 10 for native shipping steers , $3 754 CO for Texans , $3 25 ( < j3 75 for stockers , $4$4 50 for feeders , § 3 75 < ?

Corn fed' stock are nnd have been all the year iu much greater supply than last. Good heavy cattle are now selling at $2 50 < 22 75 per 100 pounds , lower than then , and light cows and steers SI 50 < 2 00 less. On thu other hand grass fed Texnns nro doing ns well ns then and extra fat lots only about 25o less. Very little of th'o heavy declines on corn fed native beeves is fulling on Toxiins , owing mainly 10 doubt to the latoopening of thu shipping season for southwest stock , less than 800 caw being received this month against nearly three times that number during Juno , 1882. Thu hog market shows little indication of recovering from its demoralization. Not much can bo hoped for while tlio panicky feeling exists in products.
