THE INDIAN TROUBLES.

General MILES, views of the Situa-
sion-More Troops on the Way to
North akota.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-Genersl Miles
spent half an hour with the secretary of
the interior this afternoon in discussing
the Indian situation. Upon leaving the
secretary's office, in answer to inquiries by
a representative of the Associated press,
he said that the Sioux continued to be
very much excited and that he feared an
outbreak. He said he regarded the stu
alton as alarming, and he should hasten
back to Chicago tonight. He expressed
the hope, however, that the military would
be able to prevent bloodshed.
Topeka, Kan, Dec. IA dispatch was
received at the Santa Fe Office here this
morning stating that twelve carloads of
troops had left Forts Bayard and Wingate.
New Mexico, for Fort Meade, N. d. About
eight hundred soldiers were transferred.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 1.-The reports re-
ceived at the war department to-day from
the locality Of threatened Indian out
breaks are much less favorable than for
several days past. They indicate that be-
tween 1 900 and 1000 of the Indians, who
have refused to come into the Rosebud
agency in response to the agents orders,
have started westward toward what are
known as the 'bad lands" In their
stampede they have committed depreda-
tions on the cabins and stock of friendly
Indians who went into the agency. Cen
eral Brooke telegraphed that this informa-
| ton is not from his own scouts. He ex-
poets, however, to have fuller information
| soon. These reports have been the sub
| iect of consultation between Secretary
| Proctor and Generals Schofeld and Miles.
| The latter has asked General Schofield fol
additional troops.
| The department will soon have a large
number of troops at its disposal in the
region where the turbulent Indians are
gathered. The Sixth cavalry which, over
a week ago was ordered to hold itself in
readiness to move at q moments warning
is now on its way to the scene.

A DISTINGUISHES LsorUnEn.

Judge Cooley Begins a Series OF Leo
lures Before the Yale Law School
Large Assemblage Present-A Re.
markedly Clever Speaker-Ens Talk
In Brfef-Contfnued To-Day.
Judge Thomas N. Cooley gave the first
of his series of lectures before the members
state Commerce Act" yesterday after
noon, in the court of common pleas room.
The attendance present to listen to this
distinguished member of the American
bar was unusually large, not only of stu
dents and members of the faculty, but
prominent lawyers and judges of the state.
As an author alone Judge Cooley has
gained a great reputation. His celebrated
work on Forts has been incorporated as q
text book in nearly all of the American
schools of law as well quoted as an au-
thority. Before he was called to the chair
manship of the commission appointed by
congress for commerce regulation he was
supreme judge ON the Michigan bench. He
has never carried a case into court. He
was introduced by President Dwight, and
his words in brief are as follows:
Gentlemen: The congress of 1887 passed
an act which was exclusively an act to
regulate the commerce of the country.
The title you see of the act is very COM
prehensive, and one might easily imagine
at hasty glance that it was an act to
regulate commerce in general, but u closer
inspection will show that is far from the
case. 1t relates to transportation only, and
is far from covering this entirely. 1t is
restricted to transportation by rail, and
even then 1t is not without restrictions.
1t is an act to regulate the transportation
of persons or property within the United
States from one state to another. Here
he went into an interesting comparison be-
tween the American and English systems
of management.
This act, he said, came into existence
because of the superstition that the rail-
roads of this country were being managed
too exclusively by the owners for their
own interests with little regard for that
of the public. There was perhaps album
dant foundation for this belief.
There were abuses that nesded cor
rection. Before it was passed the states
had tried in vain to correct these evils.
This act applies to any common carrier or
carriers for the transportation of pas
sengers or property wholly by rail and
water where it is under a common con-
troll or management.
The judge will continue his lectures
every day this week excepting Saturday at
the same place and time. He will take up
this afternoon for discussion the first pro-
hibition in the act, namely, The Require
ment of Reasonable Rates.

Runaway on whalIey Avenue.

Whalley avenue was the scene of still
another spirited runaway yesterday after
noon. One of General George n. HArmon,s
black horses attached to falling-to bug
81 became suddenly frightened while
standing N front of generals residence,
1853 Whalley avenue. The horse dashed up
the avenue at breakneck pace, narrowly
escaping collision with the cars and several
vehicles coming down the street. Just be-
yond Sherman avenue the horse leaped
over ditch fully four feet in width draw
ing the wagon after him, both horse and
vehicle clearing the trench at single
bound and neither sustaining any injury.
The team continued on its mad career up
Whalley avenue to Westville, where it was
stopped by one of the conductors of the
Fair Haven and Westville railroad just be-
yond that compsny's barn. Both the horse
and buggy escaped with slight damages,
the former sustaining but a few trifiing
scratches, while the latter suffered only
the loss of one of the front wheels.
