WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 17.-Mai
Gen. Scho6eld has received a dispatch
from Gen. Miles, dated Long Pine.
Nebraska, December 16, in which Gen.
Brooke reports that two strike and 1S4
lodges and about 800 Indians are now
camped at Pine Ridge Agency, and
these, with the other Indians at Pine
Ridge and Rosebud, are all that can be
drawn out of the disaffected camp; that
the others are defiant and hostile and
determined to 60 to war; that he has no
hopes that any other efforts at pacifica-
tion would be successful. He estimates
the number Of men in hostile camp in
the Bad Lands at $50. Every possible
means has been exhausted to retain and
restrain the friendly Indians now on
reservations. The 10000 Sioux, Gen
Brooke says, who have been restrained
and professed loyalty should have posi-
tive assurances with the least possible
delay that the government will pelform
