The smoke and flames overpowered him, however,

THE INDIAN TO BE SELF-SUSTAINIhG.
REPORT OF THE SIOUX COMMISSION TO THE
SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR

REPORT OF THE SIOUX COMMISSION TO THE
SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR
Carlisle Penn. r;ov. 81 speciaD.-The report OF
the Sioux Commission, prepared by Captain Pratt ana
Judge Wright is In the hands of Secretary Was
to be embodied In his September report. The design
OF the Commission, said Captain Pratt, was to pur
chase one-half of the reservation tract containing
IL 100000 acres The remainder was to be div ided
among the Indians, who number about 900 persons
The price offered fifty cents per acre. After re-
peated consultations the commission returned without
having accomplished It's purpose. The Indians then
went to Washington and had several interviews with
Secretary Villas. The Secretary agreed that tho In
dans should receive 81 per for such OF the land
as sh ,ud be disposed of by the Government within
two years IS cents an for such could be sold
within four years and so cents an acre for the
remainder The Indians made proposition that SO,
OOOOOO be deposited to their credit in the United
States Treasury, bearing interest at per cent per
ar num- The Secretary declined this, and the matter
there rests Captain Pratt's report will advocate
radical measures in dealing with the work OF edu-
eating and eevang the Indians, but lattery he has
changed his mind. This sentiment, 1t seems Is aso
shared by others who have been prominently
identified with this work. The report also recommenda
the passage of a bill conforming as nearly as possible
10 the proposition Of the Indians so far as the price
of the land IS concerned and making II law without
anv further reference to their wishes This VIII DO
done in order to prevent the Indians from posponnS

GREAT DESTRUCTION At CONEY ISLAND.
THE CONCOURSE RUINED-GAS-MAINS SMASHED
AND HOTEL TOTTERING UPON
FEW PILES

The destruction of property on Coney Island will
not be covered by 100000. The Concourse may be
said to be a total wreck The expensive concrete
roadway lies in heaps OF irregular fragments that

ocean Hotel which had the addition containing the
Kitchens swept away by the waves, stands tottering
upon few piles, and even moderate gale, accom-
panied by high tide will destroy 1t utterly. Kearns
estimates his loss variOusy from $4,000 to $4,000
fair weather alone making 1t possible to keep the loss
at tho lower figures. The Coney Island Gas Company
is out about $4,000 by the gale, through damage to
its stables and mains along the Concourse. The
pipes are smashed and had 1t not been for the fore
sight of superintendent Martin in shutting of the
gas before the gale explosions would have added
er teI1ors to those of the storm Yesterday large
rand of men were at work noar the dismanled Ocean
Hotel taking up the broken mains and replacing them
but IL Will be several days before the work of repair
ing will be completed.
The Marine Railroad officials have as yet done
nothing beyond viewing the spot once occupied BY
their expensive station and breakwater. As not a
ycstigc even Of the foundations remain, their loss
will probably foot up TO $4,000 Three-quarters OF

TROUBLEIN COUNTING THE INDIANA VOTE
FINDING AND CORRECTING ERRORS IN THE
VOTE FOR PREsIDENT-coRRECT TOTALS
NOT YET REACHED.

indianapolis, Nov. 81 (specaD.-The canvass or
Indlana's electoral vote was not concluded until to-
night When the returns Of the With Congressional
district were reached It found that the clerk "
Madison County had failed TO report the vote on the
candidates for electOr from the XIIlth District and,
although It was evidently error. It was held by
the Governor and secretary of State that no vote
could legally be counted. The omission does not
affect the result The county is largely Democratic,
and on other electors the Democratic vote was 1928
while for the Republican candidates 1t 3.436.
After going the returns second time the
error was corrected and the clerks found the follow
ing totals for the electors receiving the highest
votes In the State: Republicans-James NJ. shackel-
ford e63, ,35G and Thomas H. Nelson. 26336l Demo
crats-Samuel T. Vance. o61 ,Oi3, and C. s D0bbns

Republican over highest Democrat, 2,3is IL was
discovered later, however, that an error had been
made In the additions and the clerks are now going
over the work again.
General Hovey's plurality for Governor was 2,2oo
The total vote for Governor only l30 less than FOR
President.
