INDIAN SURRENDER.

Favorable Results of Miles Negotiations
With this Hostile Sioux-Surrender of
Rain in the Face and Most of Sitiing Bulls
Foliowrs-sitting Bull to be Exhibited by
MejOr Walsh in Canada and the East.
Especial Telegram to the Globe.l
BISMARCK, D. T., Oct. 30.-The Bismarck
Tribune has reliable information from Fort
Keogh to-dsy that at last the Indian warfare
on the Northern frontier is at an end. Gen.
Miles expedition has been indefinitely post
posed, and it will not be necessary at all. Capt.
Haggins, Second cavalay, who was sent out by
Miles last week to receive Sitting Bull s
ultimatum, returned 'o-day with Spotte
Eagles camp and Raj. the Face with $50
hostiles. Rain in the face said once that e
killed Custer, but now he denies it. Sittin g
Bull sent word TO Miles to hold twelve days
longer and he would tell him what be would do.
He would surrender now, but says Msj1r Walsh
is figuring with parties to take him through
Cansda and the United States on an exhibition.
If he does not hear from Walsh he will sur
render al once In event he should go to Can
ada his people will surrender at Keoch. He
is tired of fighting. The buffalo nave gone
and the Indian is weaker than the white man.
Until now he and Rain i'll the Face have feared
to surrender lest they be hung, but now they
believe Gen. Miles will use them well. Only
twenty lodges are still undecided, the rest
having consented to come in. With the surren-
der of these bands Minnesota, Montana and
Dakota Will be free from Indian raids. The
hostiles witnessed the establishment of a
cartonment at Poplar Creek, and have con-
cluded that Gen. Miles meant business when
he said to them through his SCOUTS that they
must come IN Or suffer the consequence es.

The Freak Of Two Linnets.
[From the Stockton Mail.1


Several weeks ago pair of innets
built nest in vine on the awning post
of house in the northern. part Of the
city. The post is in front of the front
door, and the nest is only about four feet
and a half from the = ground. :. The
strangest part Of the affair is that tie
female innet hatched her eggs without
any apparent fear of the occupants of
the dwelling, and did not seem ct all dis
sturbed while the head of the family
leaned against the post and smoked his
pipe of an afternoon, with his shoulder
almost grazing the nest Three young
innets were hatched few days ago.
One of them died and was taken away
and buried by it's mourning parent.
The two surviving youngsters are thriv-
ing, and are fed BY the old birds, which
seem very much at home. They fly to
and from the nest chirping merrily and
do not seem to have the slightest objec-
tion to the handling Of their young ones
BY the slady q ehe house. 81 Z

Crooked Canadian Officials.

The ministry of the province Of Quebec is
involved in a scandal Of most humiliating
character. Some time ago, when an opposition
member of the house asked the rate of interest
paid on loan of $500, 900, he was told by one
Of the ministers that it was per cent, that be-
ing the maximum rate paid by the predecessors
of the present government. It has since trans
Rired that the loan was made at 6 per cent, al
who negotiated it paying the difference, on con-
dtion that he should have the floating of q
$4, ,OOO. 900 loan to be made later. As the head
of the present ministry has been implicated in
questionable transactions heretofore, the de-
,velopments in this case have caused great
deal of excitement. = - lS''S*
