Special Cable Dispatch TO THE EVENING STAR
LONDON, Sept. 1O.-Chamberlain aud his
bosom friend, Jesse Ceilings, are going on an
eastern tour, and have decided to have nothing
TO do with Parnelrs bill. at is all a trick"
said Ceilings TO me last night. 1--WE shall do
nothing to reopen the controversy settled in
july" Accordingly q unionist whip was ar
ranged for about a score of unionists TO remain
In London to vote against the bill. Lord Har-
tington will probably speak against it. The
Irish feel the bill is doomed, and their anxiety
now Is TO make it SO moderate that they may
have good case to put before the English con-
stituencies.
A STIFF FIGHT IS EXPECTED
between Churchill and the Parnellites. The for
mer, finding that he has the whole liberal union
lists at his back has decided to let arnell do his
worst and finish the civil service estimates be-
fore carrying out the promise to give a day Tor
Parnelfs bill. The radicals will support the
1rishmen in helping To keep the discussion OF
the estimates alive. Unless the 1rshmen are
extremely prudent there will be a repetition OF
the old trouble. A politician in Parnelrs COLI
hdence said: I'VE should not be surprised ii all
the Irshmen were named and suspended be-
fore the end OF the week.

GEN. MILES GIVES COGENT REASONS FOR SEND

A telegram to the New York Herald from
Tombstone, A. T., September 9th, says, regard
ing the part taken by Gen. Miles in securing
the removal of the hostile Apaches from Ari-
zona: "When Chatto. at Washington, was petted
and praised by the various departments. and it
was decided that he should return to the San
Carlos reservation and receive proper treat
ment, and the Secretary decided to have him
return, they started him from Washington
without notifying Gen. Miles, who at once
wired vigorous protest against the return of
the marauder, and ordered that he and his
companions be meanwhile detained in Kansas
until Secretary Endicott could be heard from.
The Secretary telegraphed to Gen. Miles that IL
good and sufficient reasons were not presented
to him at once Cnatto and his friends would be
sent to the reservation at Fort Smith. Gen.
Miles, in his reply, said:
"'Y ou ask me why desire the removal of the
ApacheS from the territory? / will tell you in
as few words as possible. 1 ask it in the name
OF the territory whose prospects and progress
have been blasted and retarded by the fiendish
cruelties of those Indians. ask it in the name
and on behalf of the widows and fatherless
children whose lives have been wrecked and
whose future has been darkened by the mur-
derOus raids of these fends. I ask it in the
name of the thousands Of lives that have been
offered up as sacrifice to the reservation sys-
tenn. Finally, ask it in the name of civiliza-
tiOn, which can never make an advance in this
territory SO long as the Indians are allowed
periodically to terrOriZe the country"
