Soon after the train left Virginia City the
President pulled dispatch from his pocket
from Cen. Miles, at Fort Keogh, Dakota. l,
had been received at Virginia City the night
before and informed the President that the
Sioux were coming in to the fort in such num-
bers that it would be impossible to take care
Of them. They were composed mostly Of
bands of savages who, having wearied Of war,
| we're anxious to be taken care of by the Gov
ernment The President, Gen. Sherman and
Secretary of War Ramsey composed the meet
ing, and these three talked over the matter
| for half an hour. The President was appar
emily quite familiar with the situation and his
two members. 1t was finally decided to send
dispatch informing Gen. Miles that the In.
dams we're to be disposed of a. fast as possible
by sending them to reservations in Southern
Kansas. The passen gers noticed all the pro-

ioyed the idea of being present at Cabinet

TOM BEERS FISH.
Tom Beer of E npire, anticipating tia
Presidents arrival, got up at o'clock in the
morning to catch some fresh fish for the Elk
ecutive. He succeeded in leading four trout
and nine catfish which he had on string to
hand to the President. When the train
pulled up at Empire Mr.. Beer stepped ON the
platform with his fish and announced himself
"This way, Beer" called out Gold Hill
Ne,cs reporter, who was on boaed.
As Mrs. Hayes heard the name she looked
at her lord and remarked,
Rutherford, We want no beer On this
train
"No beer said Mr. Hayes, shaking his
head.
Secretary Sherman went to the platform
and seeing Mr. Beer told him that the Pres.
dent was strictly temperate and did not care
to see him, at which Mr.. Beer hastily retreat
ed in such state of excitement that he left |
his fish On the platform where they were cor
raled by Secretary Ramsey.

up rousing cheer as the train stopped. There
we're four four in hands in readiness and the
President, Secretary Ramsey, Gen. Sherman
and the Governor took seats in the first car
riage. The carriages then proceeded to the
Capitol headed by the Carson Guards. As
the President passed under the big Hayes
and Wheeler banner stretched across the
street from, Johnny Moore theater he looked
up and remarked that it reminded him of old
times and he wished Wheeler was there to
see it.
AT THE CAPITOL.
The carriages were driven up to the Capt.
tol steps and the party on disembarking, went
to the Governors rooms The decorations
we're very extensive; flags, festoons Of bunt-
ing, streamers and shields, were displayed in
every direction, and the front of the Capitol
was deliberately decorated. Mr.. Hayes re-
,eived his visitors in the Governors office
while Mrs. Hayes received the ladies in the
Secretary of States Office. There was ire
nendous jam Of people who were anxious to
,e introduced. They passed before his Ex-
,ellency in long line, and the hand shaking
