Three or four cases OF sporadic yellow-feyer

cient sanitary precautions have been taken
against the spread OF the disease that no in

THE AMERICAN BOARD OF MISSIONS.
HARTFORD, Conn.,, October Sin the
meeting OF the American Board Of Missions
to-day paper on the Dakota Indians, which
held that the whole treatment Of the In
dams had been wrong, and urged the break
ing up Of the tribal relation, provoked con-
siderable debate. Rev. Mr.. Marsh opposed
it as being criticism on the United States
Government. Hon. W. Z. Dodge upheld
the paper strongly. III - a.r
DR.. Leonard Bacon made long speech
in its defense, holding that for the Govern
ment to make treaty with the Indians was
as absurd rs for Connecticut or Massachu-
sets to make, treaty with tramps. AL

Clusters policy was wrong, and his death
was the result of it. General Custer had
been reported as saying, "There ought
only to be one Indian war, and then no more
Indians" 1t was this spirit,that actuated
him when he went to massacre and was
mastered. y. s.,,....- =
