JUST LET 10 ALONE.
He Will Dance himself Out and
Forget About Revolving.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.-Acting In
dian Commissioner Belt has received 10
recent information from South Dakota
which justifies the evident alarm of the
settlers in the neighborhood OF the Pine
Ridge agency. That the Indians are
greatly excited there is no doubt, but
MIR. Belt is of opinion that SO long as the
Indians are not lnterfered with, no harm
will be done except 10 themselves. lie
does not believe that the government
would be justified under the present eX-
citement i'll making any arrests or
in any manner attempting to sup
press the ghost dances of the
Indians so long as they commit
no acts of violence. Such action might
precipitate general uprising. The
proper course to pursue, in his opinion,
is 10 let the Indians dance themselves
out. 1t will not be long, he thinks, be-
fore they will begin to lose faith i'll the
coming Messiah and fall away. Then
the whole craze Will collapse, and the
gusted with themselves and their
pretended prophets. MIR. Belt is, how
ever, strongly in favor of keeping
strong military force within call to
promptly suppress the first move to-
wards all outbreak, and to protect the
lives and property of the settlers. This
precaution has already been taken, and
all things considered, the government
is not at all apprehensive of
trouble. Mr.. Belt to-day received
letter from Charles A. East
man, a young Sioux, vino has been ed
Gated in medicine and is now employed
by the government as agency physician
at Pine Ridge. This young Sioux writes
that he has just had long talk with
Red Cloud, who is also living on the
Pine Ridge reservation. III speaking of
the ghost dance, Rid Cloud said: The
enthusiasm OF the men in it will melt
away like spring SNOW"
1t Is a False Alarm.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.-The war de-
partment officials have received no
news to-day of any change in the Situa-
ton at the Pine Ridge, Standing Rock
and other Sioux agencies, and as cOm-
petent officers are on the watch at all
points where trouble is threatened.
whose business it is to report any sig
nificant events, it is taken for granted
that no Immediate trouble Is at hand.
a Few Troops Ordered Out.
OMAHA, Neb., Nov. 1s-Troops from
Fort Omaha, Fort Robinson, Fort Mo
brara, Neb., and pack train from Fort
Russell, Wyo., have been ordered out to
hold the Indians in check az the Pine
Ridge and Rosebud agencies on the Da-
kOta frontier. They will all be tu mo-
ti0n before night.

ONLY A MILLION IN DEBTS.
A Big Brokerage Firm Makes an
Assignment.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1S.-P. W. Gallau-
Diet d Co, No. Wall street. made an
assignment to-day to c. Elliot Minor.
The assignee states that the liabilities
of the firm amount to about Sl,000,000.
The failure is due to the action of sew
eral banks in calling in loans to the firm.
The preferences are $4,000 to Margaret
E. Gallaudet and $4,000 to Frazer &
Minor, their attorneys. The firm is
composed of P.W. Gallaudet and Henry
Fitch. To reporter, Mr.. Minor, the
assignee, said: 1.-The suspension of the
house is due to the general de-
probation in the value of cOllaterals,
which has gone so far that when loans
to the firm were called they could not be
met, although the firm have what in ordl-
nary times would be amply sufficient
resources for borrowing money. From
curSory examination of the firms
books, it appears to me that their iiabil-
tiles will amount to about 100000, or
perhaps more. They hold such good
securities that if the market improves
they will be able to pay all this indebt-
edness. and have handsome surplus
left. A full statement of liabilities and
assets will not be ready for several
days." Mr.. Fitch. member of the
firm, said to the reporter: I'VE have
been compelled to suspend on ac-
count of the decline in values
and our inability to borrow money on
our securities, which, under ordinary
circumstances, would be available. We
owe our trouble in part, also, to the dis
elimination of the banks in the matter
OF accepting securities. The threatened
fall of the BaringS and other financial
difficulties have made them exceedingly
careful. / am not criticiZing them, as
their action was natural and justitiable
under the circumstances, and they have,
on the whole. treated us exceedingly
we'll. Of course we hope to resume
business shortly. Our being able to do
so depends largely upon the banks and
trust companies. If they are lenient
with us we may come out all right, If,
on the other hand, they press US, the
termination of our suspension is not SO
clearly fOreSeen."

MANDAN. n. D., Nov. 1S.-Nearly
every house in town shelters 4 refugee
from the country districts. Intense eX
cltement prevails i'll the country, and
settlers are prepared to believe any thing
about Indians because OF their queer
actions lately. Several families came in
on foot a distance of twenty miles. In
town somewhat less tension exists ow-
ing TO the receipt of 800 guns to-day
from the state government and the fact
that company of soldiers will be here
tomorrow from Fort Totten. Tonight
there are 20U Indians in town, nearly
all armed, but the citizens are armed,
too. and patrols will be out, and people
Will sleep with their clothes on. A date
will be fixed by committee of citizens,
and Indian agents notified that after
that date any Indian found in the
county without pass from the agent
will be killed on sight. The population
is thoroughly aroused. and although
conservative men are doing their best
10 quiet the angry ones, there is every
reason TO believe that unless the gov
ernment takes Immediate steps to in
crease the force of soldiers at
Fort Lincoln every Indian coming
into this county will be killed.
Nearly one hundred settlers arrived on
the train tonight from the west end of
the county going to Bismarck for safety.
AT Glen Allen, forty miles west, the cit
liens turned out Ell maSSe and are throw
ing up breastworks by moonlight for
protection. A supply of rifles has been
sent to each settlement in the county.
TelegramS are coming in constantly for
supplies of ammunition. A telegram
was received tonight from New Salem
station that $50 Indians are camped
south of that point and the people are
clamoring for guns and powder. A
number of determined men are bent on
driving the Indians away, but have de-
ferred action till morning on the Indi-
ans promising to be peaceable. But the
first thing in the morning they will be
moved off promptly.

CHICAGO, Nov. 1S.-Referring to the
press dispatches of tonight regarding
the movement of large bodies of troops
in the department of the Platte, and
their concentration at points adjacent
to the Pine Ridge agency. Gen. Miles
said: "'The newspapers really ought
not to publish this sort of news, for it
will be in the Indian CAMPS in less than
twenty-four hours, taken there by run
ners. There is really nothing in this,
except that the troops are being
placed in readiness SO as to
move at moments notice:
These troops are sent TO the vicinity of
the reservation to prevent, if possible.
any outbreak, and to encourage the
loyal element among the Indians, if ahy.
Also to protect the agencies, which re-
port the Indians as turbulent and past
control, hence they called ON the mill
tary for protection. 1t was hoped that
this excitement might pass without serl-
Gus trouble. and up to this time no In
dians have left their reservation. The
causes of this threatened trouble are

A Libel Suit Which Is Agitating
Chicago Society.

CHICAGO, Nov. 1s.-There began in
Judge Bakers court this afternoon a
suit for libel which, if the opening adj
dress of counsel shall be proven, will
merge into one of the most sensational
ever heard in Chicago. 1t is the $4,000
suit of Mary NJ. Ryan against the Inter
Ocean for cbaracteriZing her as black
mailer and adventures, and stating
that she pursued with the relent-
lessness of tiger some of the
wealthiest and most prominent of
Chlcago's citizens, bleeding them of
large sums of money which they handed
over rather than public notice should be
brought to them. The plaintiff is a
rather tall, plainly attired, well-devel-
oped woman with an attractive face.
She mas acted as book canvasser. A
large crowd attended the proceedings.
not a few of the lalies present being
wives of wealthy alleged victimlzed
husbands. A jury was secured but no
witnesses were called to-day. Over
sixty have been summoned by the Inter
Ocean, among them some of the most
prominent supposed sufferers. Others
are said to have left the state to avoid
the publicity their testimony would
give, while a number had to he threa, entd
with being attached for contempt before
they would consent to appear.

The Nationalists' Chief Cause for
Irritation Against Parnen.

The NatiOnalists' Chief Cause for
Irritation Against Parnen.
LONDON, Nov. 1s.-The Nationalists'
chief cause for irritation against Mr..
Parnell arises from the fact that he al
lowed them to place themselves in
position which now turns out to be a
ridiculous one. 1t is not known whether
Mr.. Parnell intends to be present in the
house when it meets Tuesday or not.
Many believe that he will postpone his
appearance to later and less conSpicu-
Gus occasion, though it will be singular
tor him to disobey his own urgent
whip, in which he dwells upon the i'm
portance of every Irish member being
on hand at the opening. The Globe de-
clares that the ''grand old man" will
shock the public if he continues to dis
play personal friendship for the two
penny Don Juan. Although the scan
dial has been a matter of public gossip
for months, and even years, and has
been alluded to more or less directly in
certain weekly prints, Mr.. Gladstone,
according to his close friends, never
heard this gossip, and the prints allud-
ed to are excluded from his library.
He is man of the most strict id, as in
regard TO moral obligations, and the
O'Shea trial has come on him as n,-w
and painful revelation in reference to
ParnelIS alliance with Mrs. O'Shea.

Philadelphia's Clearing House
Will Issue Certificates.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 1S.-The meet
ing of the clearing house committee to-
day was attended by all the members.
The advisability of issuing certificates
was discussed. and all the presidents
agreed that such a step would be wise
one at this time. A resolution provid-
ing for the unlimited issue of the certifi-
Gates was then presented and adopted
without dissenting vote. The COM
mittee decided to meet daily at II o'clock
for the purpose of examining the col
laterals presented by the various banks
and to issue the certificates. The banks
decided after some discussion to issue
loan certificates in unlimited. amounts.
The Philadelphia banks have not adopt
ed this course since 1878 when the Jay
Cooke panic occurred. AT that time
they decided to issue certificates and in
that way assisted some of the banks. or
rather enabled the banks to tide over
their customers.
