WASHINGTON, April 9.-The news OF Gen.
Crooks success conqueTing the Sioux Indians was ex-
pected by army officers in Washington who were familiar
with his method Of Indian warfare as all or them are
THE theory which has been repeatedly proved to be the
correct one is that hostile Indians should be allowed no
rest Winter or Summer The Indians can often muster
LARGE numbers for single battle, aud will then fight with
great desperation after that whether they have been
victorious or have defeated they want rest III they
are followed closely up they are taken at great dsad-
vantage Such a policy this often involves great
hardship and suffering the part OF the soldiers as mas
been the case with Gen. Crooks command during the
mast Winter but the end has always proved cheaper
and better than any other

that Spotted Tail and portion Of his band, at least are
