The Conference Elects Officers.

WASHINGTON, June 10.-In the confer
ence of charities and corrections, reports of
committees were read. A committee was
appointed to confer with the national
bureau of education with the view of lend
ing it's aid in collecting these statistics. The
reports state there is nearly eight million
dollars invested in juvenile ref0rmat0ries,
and there are II, 900 inmates supported by
them at an annual cost of 5000 1t was
recommended that some form of employ
ment be given inmates of these juvenile re-
fOrmatories, in order to make them partially
self-supporting.
Officers were elected as follows: Presi-
dent, w. H. Neff of Ohio; vice president
D. G. Bell of Minnesota; j. III. Estell Of

Indian Movements.

WASHINGTON, June 10.-In telegram
dated Fort Bayard, N. NJ, June 6, Col.
Bradley says that it is certain that the hos
tile Apaches are making for Mexico by way
of Steens Peak range. The troops and
scouts are stationed in Stems pass, Doubt
full canyon and San Loses valley to inter-
cept them. Under date of Deming, the Sth
inst, Gen. Crook telegraphs: Prepare
tions to operate against the hostiles, in ac-
cordance with my telegram of the 5th,
should be made at once. In my judgment,
as result, the Indians thus far have only
killed citizens to get arms and ammunition,
but if after some of their number have been
killed, the Indians are driven back
into the United States, there is no
estimating the damage they will do. The
number Of people living in the mountains
and their property interests have increased
enormously since the time of Victoria, so
that if the Indians meet among these noun
tainrs again such a wall will go up as was
never before heard. An early reply is re-
ouested, which will serve to instruct me as
to the intention of the government, but 1
desire to reiterate that delay is very danger
ous." In transmitting this dispatch Gen.
Pope says that he has complied with Gen.
Crooks request to the extent of his power,
and submits the matter for the action Of the
war department.

NEW YORK, June 10.-The examination
Of James D. Fish, ex-president of the late

of Julian L. Davis, the receiver of Grant d

the tracts of lands and buildings owned by
Mr.. Fish were purchased with money Sc
cured from the defunct bank MIR. Fish
was stubborn and testy. The first question
was as to number of lots owned by
Fish in Chicago. Fish said they were pur-
chased by him during the past three years
and became angry when asked if they were
purchased with money got from Grant &
Ward. He clustered out once OF twice,

MR.. DIXON INTERVIEWED.

Assistant General Passenger A gent Dixon
of the Milwaukee & ST. Paul road was seen
last night, and when asked whether his
road intended cutting passenger rates, made
the following statement:
''The Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul railway did authorize its
agents to use the low
rates from Chicago in order that their pas
sengers might get their baggage checked
through and save the annoyance OF
transfer and trouble in Chicago, and for
Sthe further reason that it was absurd to
charge passengers So more for ticket from
ST. Paul to New York, than passengers
would have to pay by purchasing locally to
Chicago and repurchasing Chicago to New
York. The Minneapolis & ST. Louis with
drew from the passenger agreement on
June s, and this left the lines between st.
Paul and Chicago without any agreement
whatever.
s'As the Rock Island was using these rates
from local territory also the Burlington,
Cedar Rapids & Northern railway, and as
the Missouri River association adopted
them in Chicago yesterday, it would be abb
surd to defer longer the adoption OF so en-
inently proper course These rates are
legitimate; there is no agreement prevent

as to be unworthy Of serious

extent of robbing the public, and under the

existence since Nov. 4, 1884, it is the only
