The interview with Gen. Miles, pub ished
in the GLOBE of yesterday, is one Of the
most valuable contributions to the literature
of the Indian question that has yet been
given to the world. Gen. Miles, by reason
of his long service on the frontier, is pecu-
liarly qualified to express an opinion upon the
question of how the Indians should be kept
under control. AS to the ACCESSIBILITY of
transferring them to the care of the war de-
partment he has no doubt, but realizing the
influences tn at are being brought to bear
upon Congress to prevent such transfer, he
does not think it will take place. His COM
lnents on the Indian nature and the best
mode of governing them are the result of
extensive and close observation, and deserve
to be carefully considered by the Congress
sional committee having the matter IN
charge.

the coinage of silver be suspended when the
amount outstanding shall exceed fifty mil
lions, should not be adopted. A larger
amount than that indicated is needed for the
legitimate purposes of trade. After the
present year the national banks will be re-
quired to retire their notes of issue of less
denomination than five dollars, and although
limited amount of small greenbacks will
still remain in circulation, they will be insult
ticient to meet all demands. IF our trade re-
quires fifty millions Of fractional currency,
We certainly could not get along, without
great inconvenience with as small an amount
OF silver dollars. It may be necessary at
some future time to limit the coinage Of
silver, but that time has not yet arrived.

Ingersoli,s Horrible Dreams.
Cincinnati Enquirer.


A reporter CHANGED to be passing through
the halls of the Burnett house Yesterday
morning, soon after midnight, and was
startled bya noise sounding like the yell of
maniac lost among the labyrinths Of the
cataconbs. Hurrying in the direction
whence the sound came, astonishment quick
ered into wonder at the discovery that the
dialogue, or soliloquy, or apostrophe, or
whatever it was, continued and came
from the room occupied by Colonel
Ingersoll. The first impulse was to cry for
police then to send for doctor, then to
summon a bell-boy ana then to draw nearer
and listen. The bell messenger responded
and affirmed that the valient Colonel occu-
pied MS room alone, and Immediately after
the reporter was assured of the truth of the
messengers affirmation. The yell had sub
sided, but words were still audible. The
voice was none other than Ingerscll's. 1t
sounded strange and hollow and often gut
tural. The words were broken and discon-
nected. Evidently Colonel Ingersoll was
asleep and dreaming. The reporter was in
the hearing of somnambulist The first
words that caught his ear were: ooh,
Father Abraham Then there was break
and an evident tossing about on restless
couch, and then followed 81 ought to be

Fe'c ideas on Political Topics.
Washington Special (Dec. y to Chicago Times.
Charles Foster, one Of the shrewdest and
best informed members of the House, in
an interview this evening said he thought
there would be very strong fight in the
House over the proposition asking for $3.50
600 for the extra expenses of the department
of justice in enforcing the laws. He said
that this would undoubtedly lead TO politi-
cal debate and open up the entire question
OF the management of the last political can

move suspicion from Copp, also took the

was given up. a few days ago Wissenger

to convict Copp, and swore out a warrant for
his arrest Chief of Police ShortaIl arrested
