The adoption , however , \vus In a measure qualltled , because It was thought the agent would not be de prived of the power which ho now exorcises. This , It was thought , would and tocoitlllct. Today , however , the doubt was set asldo by tlio removnl of Agent Koyer and the an nouncement of the appointment of Captain R 32. 1'Iorco , First Infantry , to succeed him. A shott sketch o ( this ofllecrs successful inannnoinontof Indians appealed In thcso dis patches of ycstcrdny. The appointment greatly pleased General Miloj , who hid iccommcndud the captain for appointment. .Agent Koyor.sald that his removal had been brought about by political inllucnco and Joilousy anil at a thuo when the Dakota delo- gallon in congress was at homo looking after < in election. Ho said further , that that \vns the only manner in which Ho could bo laid aside , because they could bring no charges against 1dm. Captain Pierre will assume the duties of Ills new position tomorrow. This appoint- incnt will bo mule permanent on this reser vation. It Is thought , hovvovei , at the other ngoncics the civilians will ho icslorcd after this trouble shall have passed over. The change gives gonor.il satis faction on the agency and it Is felt will bavo an effect upon the closing of hostilities. Gcncial Miles' view of the situation Is about as follows : "Thorn nro thrcoorfour hundred In the ho-.tllo camp who are very wicked and are trjing every way known ] to iiifiuanto the Indians , notonly to remain out , but to light tlio matter to the end. Gcncial Miles hopes that the better element will prevail - vail and to some extent destroy these wicked lirulos. On this account ho is exorcising pa- tionco. So long as there Is achancoof do- stroj lug oauh other ho fecU ho c in afford to \valt. " General Brooke , from his camp on White Clay creek , writes General Miles that ho has no tilled the Ognllalaa that It was determined In council today that many of the piiuclpil men and chiefs ) now on that creek will visit General Miles tomorrow. The position of the vui'ous troops In the field was changed today and the places for tomorrow will bo at follows : General Carr with nine tioops nf the Sixth. cavalry , ouo company of the Seventeenth , in fantry and two Hotchkiss guns will bo at tbo Junction of Wounded Ivnoa crooR and White river ; Colonel Oflloy witli two troops of the Eighth cavalry and six companies of the Sev enteenth Infantry will bo onVhl \ to river , about four miles southwest of Big Grass crcok ; Colonel Sanford with four troops of the Eighth cavalry , four companies Second end Infnutiy and ono Hotchldss gun , will heat at the Junction of White Clay crcok and White river ; Colonel AVheuton with four troops of the Ninth cavahy , four companies of the Second infantry and t\vo Hotchkiss guns will ho on White river , three miles north ot Lower Llmo Kiln crook , mind about eight miles from the hostile camp : Major AVhitnoy with thrco troops of the Ninth cavalry and ono company of luo Eighth Infantry will bo on Wounded Knee crook , a short distance from the late battle Hold ; Captain Illsloy , with four companies of tbo Seventh cavnlrv will bo on Itovvor Llmo Kiln creek , four miles from Its source. The effect of tboso movements will bo to narrow the chclo in which the hostile * nro nowgatheiod. It was expected that Gen eral Miles would hold a confoienco today with Hod Cloud , but the expectation was uot realized. The general had decided that ho would hold no moro talks with the a god chief , as ho had given him the ultimatum several daj a ago , to abandon the hostlles or suffer the consequence. The arrival of the old man Is considered an evidence ) of his good faith ai Is also the cffoit ho undo to save Lieutenant Casey's life by warning him of his danger. Hod Cload told of a fight between the Ogallalas nnd the Brulos shortly succeeding the killing of Casey. The former made nn effort to sop irate from the Ernies and return to the iigcncy. Tlio latter objected , llrmjj at them a number ot shots , all of which , hovvovot. passed over their heads , no ono being Injured. ThU movnlng about two hundred of the Ognllnlns succeeded la forsaking the Bruin * and In a light fall of snow 01 mo Into the agency.

Isaac Millar ; the cook of the heritor camp , who was brought In yesterday , murdered , was buried today. Buffalo BUI , attended by Buckskin Jack , arrived at noon from Uushvlllo , In tbo face of a stiff breeze , his Imperial and mustache coated with Ico.

' The latter liavo extended lino's toward Plnoltldgo , fourteen miles from the town at whlcl ) tlioy nro located mid mounted men patrol between the suveinl companies , so ( Hat no 'Indians may pass through the linos. General i\ll \ es heartily approved of the arrangement. Tbo wounded , all squaws nnd papooses , are quartered In the Episcopal church of the Holy Cross and the Catholic school house. Ono woman , natno unknown , died today. She was shot la seven places. The chief surgeon directed the amputation of ono limb , Whoa the news roac'ued the bucks the/ pro tested loudly against the amputation , The operation was accordingly nliandouod with the above result.

JTho Irish members who participated In the coiitcrcnco nt Bou- lougno between O'Hilen nud Pnrncll still observes extraordinary rctlccnco as to the outcome of the deliberation. The terms cabled you yesterday are , however , boliovcd to bo substantially correct. It Is understood that O'llrlon is In no sense , what ever , acting as the representative , still loss as the plenipotentiary In the negotiations which ho thought lit to open with his deposed leader.

In the present clrcumstaiues the recently elected loader of the Irish pirlla- incntaiy party Is disinclined to accept the Invitation. Similar uncoitainty prevails w ith regard to the attitude of the pitriot party nt largo. It should bo remembered that unless the party cheese to take some concerted action in the tniUcr no oppor tunity will present itself for givlug effect to O'Brien's ' ' aspira tion for the leadership. The chairmin of tuo piity for the present session has already been elected and no vacancy \vould , in the natural course of events , occur in the post until the beginning of next session. Should , however , Air. Justin McCarthy bo persuaded by O'Brien ' to give waj , in order thntPni- noil's nominee may step Into the place , ho would , no doubt , convene a meeting of the paity when the house reassembles and signify to that meeting his abdication of the post which they conferred upon Him It would then bo open to the party to iiccopt P.irncll's ' tcnns and elect that gentleman's nominee wno , it is said , would ba O'Brien for liut choice and Dillon for second.
