AFTER SITTING BULL.
General Niles Expedition On the Move.
National Associated Press to the Star.

National Associated Press to the Star.
CHICAGO, July 16.-A dispatch received
to-day from the Camp Of General Miles ex-
pedtion at Fort Peck, Montana says the
column was to move towards the British
Line against the Northern Sioux and Sit
ting Bull at daybreak on the 18th.
The command consists of only IA small
companies Of the Fifth Infantry and of
the Second Cavalry, together with three
gun battery and 150 Indian and white
Sioux, 100 packers and teamsters accom-
pany the train. The regulars, including
officers number not more than $50 men,
which, deducting the train guards and
horse-holders will be a somewhat weak
force, as the hostiles, if they fight at all,
will do so in force.
The expedition, leaving its supplies
guarded by two companies of the Sixth In
fantry, takes twenty-five days rations
Should any fighting occur, courier will be
sent in at once.
The renewal of the absurd story about
Sitting Bull being Lord Gordon in disguise.
is creating great amusement in the eXpedi-
ton, many of the officers having seen the
noted chief personally, and know him to be
a full-blooded Indian.
