What the Department of the Missouri Ha
Been Doing the Past Year

What the Department of the Missouri Has
Been Doing the Past Year.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 4--In his annual
report to the War Department of the
Missouri, Brigadier-General Merritt
states that on several occasions during
the past year troops have been called
out to suppress threatened Indian out
breaks, but upon their appearance their
services were not required; that troops
were stationed at the polls in Oklahoma
by request of the authorities, and that
the cattlemen show no disposition to de-
lay their removal from the Territory.
Concerning the condition Of affairs in
oklahoma, General Merritt says that
the severe drought has rendered the corn
crop failure, and that about one-third
OF the people are without food or money
and will need assistance from outside
the Territory or starve, 1t VIII also, he
says be necessary to supply about half
the farmers with grain for seeding pur-
poses.
General Merritt also recommends the
establis,hment of a ten-company post
near ST Louis.
