SITTING BULL VERY MAD.
He Says He Is Ignored and Hates the
Other Sioux Chiefs.

dispatch from Bismarck, ND, says: Sitting
Bull is very much incensed because he was not
taken to Washington with the delegation Of the
Sioux chiefs who recently had a consultation
with President Harrison regarding their lands.
Sitting Bull now fully realizes that he is un-
popular with Agent Mclaughlin and all in au-
thority, and he is vehement in his denunciation
Of the agent and the more popular chiefs. It
is a particular bitter pill for him to have John
Grass and Gall, his two bitterest enemies,
recognized as leaders while he is ignored. He
says that Grass and Gall have been traitors to
the Indians and they sold out their people in
the conference which resulted in the ceding of
their land, which will soon be open to settle
ment. In an interview since the departure of
the Indian delegation for the east he said
Il have always been friend to my people.
] have not been like Grass and Gall, who sold
them out. 1 am no good with white men, but
the time will come when the Indians will real
ize that am right"
The last straw that broke the back Of what
little consideration Agent Mclaughlin had for
Sitting Bull was his attempt to stampede In
dams away from the conference Just as they
were about to sign the treaty Since then the
agent has been disciplining him, with good
effect. Bull can no longer influence the Indians
for evil, ana it is the peace and harmony on the
reservation that worries him.

THE CRONIN PLOTTERS.
State Attorney Longenecker Says More
Are to BE Indicted.

Attorney Hynes, one OF counsel for the state
in the Cronin case, having said in Philadelphia
that there are four more men who figure prom
inently in the case who will yet be indicted and
brought to trial, Judge Longenecker, the state
attorney, said in Chicago Saturday, according
to New York Tribune special: "That is right.
Mr.. Hynes only says what we have all believed
for months. In fact, really believe that there
are more than four conspirators who have not
yet been apprehended. We are far from being
through with the murder case"
"Who are the others?"
"Well, there is the man Simonds who bought
the furniture; Cooney; certain individual
whose name cannot mention, but who was on
the witness stand, and the man who was the
archconspirator. These four men, we know,
have at least guilty knowledge OF the crime,
but we cannot prove it just now. Mr.. Hynes Is
right when he says that it would be premature
to indict them now, although we have i'm
portant information in our possession. 1t may
be months before these men are placed on trial
for this conspiracy, but I believe We shall be
able to do it at last / also agree with Mr..
Hynes in what he says about the prisoners
being pardoned. I don't think any governor
of this state would dare to pardon those men.
The case has occupied too prominent position
in the public mind. 1t would be good by to that
mans political power if he meddled with the
conspirators sent to Joliet for the murder Of
DR.. Cronin. More than that, the public would
not allow it

How to Spend the Winter Evenings.

To the Editor of The EVENING STAR:
How to spend these winter evenings profta-
bly, and pleasantly is a useful question for all
who are not satisfied with simply idling av ay
the time with no advantage.
The good old times when our greatest
scholars used to take part in lecture courses in
New England towns seems to have passed away.
Is there not a lack of popular and low priced
entertainments, Of the best character, in Wash
ington? The course of lectures now in progress
at the First Congregational church is .all
right" but the season tickest are all sold and
strange to say, /, for one, do not care to paw so
cents or more for single evenings entertain
ment. Our churches seem to have no trouble
about getting up interesting entertainments,
IN which local talent figures very creditably
Cannot this be done on a larger scale and with
a charge of only 10 to 25 cents admission, or a
correspondingly low rate for course tickets?
L suppose that very interesting stereopticon
exhibitions are given by the Camera club of
this city. Are they open to the public? Or, if
not, why cannot similar treats" be arranged
for the general public? Why cannot the Ma
tional museum be open in the evening once
twice or four times a month, or oftener? / be-
heve the CorcoraR art gallery is to be open
again in the evening.
The Congressional library, with its interest
ing treasures, is practically closed to people
who work for a living, unless they are located
in or very near the Capitol. in which case they
may be able to run in there in a hurry and
simply take out a book, but they cannot stay.
Why are these things thus.
ONE Who Works.

Death of Mrs, Blaine's Sister.

Miss Susan L. Stanwood of Augusta, Me-,
died at the residence of Mrs. Lemont in that
city at 1:3O o'clock Sunday morning, in her
seventy-sixth year, from attack of paralysis.
An Augusta special to the New York World
says: "Miss Stanwood was the daughter of
Jacob Stanwood, who came to Augusta when
she was nine years old and the eldest of a
family of nine children, of whom only two
sisters now survive, one of them being Mrs.
James G. Blaine, who was next to the youngest
The other lives in New York. Miss Stanwood
has always been a member of the Blaine family
when they kept house in Augusta and was very
dear to them. When the Blaine mansion was
closed she boarded with one of the neighbors
Several winters. however, when the Blanes
were absent, the house was left in her care and
visitors were received by her who found her
an agreeable and charming lady. Her loss will
be severely felt by the Blaines and they have
been in Geographic communication with Au-
gusta daily since her illness began"
Mrs. Blaine Is now in Augusta and the funeral
will probably occur this afternoon.

SULLIVAN AND JACKSON.


From the New York World
II John L. Sullivan wins his case in Missis-
sippi he viii meet Peter Jackson in glove
fight to q finish before the California athletic
club next May. The exceptions to the sentence
Of one years imprisonment in Marion county
are likely to como before the Mississippi
court soon after February II, ON which date the
court will convene at Jackson. In view Of the
champions excellent behavior, and the senti-
-ment in Mississippi against enforcing the SEN
tence. 1t Is probable that only hne viii be de-
manded. The big fellow practically concluded
arrangements with the club through Major Nc
Laughlin a few days ago, and that everything
done SO far il satisfactory to him there can be
no doubt.
Jackson, too, means business. The following
cablegram, received by Richard K. Fox Of the
Police Gazette explains itself: THE Pelican club
has offered purse of 900 for glove con-
test between Jackson and Slavin. 1t will not
come to anything. Davies sails for America
January 8, and Jackson follows January Is to
fill an engagement with Sullivan"

PIONEER HARDSHIPS.


Great excitement prevails at Pierre, Sd,
because Of the discovery yesterday that band
of about seventy-fve settlers had attempted to
found town site across the Missouri at the
mouth of Bad river. The work commenced
at midnight Saturday and all night thereafter
men with teams and loads of lumber were
crossing and recrossing the river. All went
well until about a. m.. when a half-breed who
farms the land whereon the squatters had To-
Gated discovered them. Securing band Of
followers he attacked the squatters with guns,
pistols and lassoes They lassoed the boss car
penter and severely injured several of the
home seekers. Finally the latter took flight,
being unable to hold out in the battle. To add
to their dismay storm of rain and sleet set in
and one by one they came struggling across
the river, drenched. almost frozen and a num-
Der of them bleeding from bruises and wounds.
The half-breeds secured the lumber, piled it
up and set fire to it, and now all that marks the
prospective town site is vast column OF fame
and smOka

ALLEGED OUTRAGE IN HAYTI.
An American Citizen Arrested, Robbed
and Beaten.

The New York World yesterday contained q
long dispatch from Port-au-Prince. Hayti, Civ
ing what purported to be the details Of an out
rage committed by the Haytian authorities on
an American citizen named Samuel F. Purring-
ton, a submarine diver of Brunswick, Me. He
was, it is alleged, arbitrarily arrested and i'm
prisoned on a false charge of smuggling. He
was not only brutally beaten, but robbed of his
money by the soldiers making the arrest, and
finally released with neither explanation nor
apology. 1t is said that report of the affair
will be sent to Secretary Blaine with request
for demand for indemnity.

A Pressing Need.

To the Editor of THE EVENING STAR.
The excellent editorial in late EVENING STAR
on the necessity of better protection of life at
railroad grade crossings, emboldens me to sug-
gest the necessity Of temporary bridge over
the present grade crossing of the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad at Massachusetts avenue. An i'm
mense tide of travel, in vehicles and on foot
passes over this crossing because this avenue
affords the shortest cut between East Washing
ton and the printing, pension. post Offices and
the Interior and Treasury departments Several
streets here bisect this avenue SO that bridge
would be safe outlet for a large part OF north
eastern Washington The grade OF Massac husetts
avenue is also well suited for bridge with easy
ascent II anyone will visit this spot, especially
before and after Office hours, and see the hair
breadth escapes daily made by people trying to
reach the departments or their homes, yet
blocked by freight cars slowly passing or hav-
ing to dodge the rapidly descending gates as
the lightning express PUSHES by or having to
drive their terrified horses past an engine
which plants itself just on the line of the
avenue and leisurely blows of its steam-if we
say these daily scenes could only be witnessed
by our congressman and local authorities they
would see the necessity of at once placing a
temporary bridge over this human death-trap.
