INDIAN RATIoNs.
General Brooks SAYS They are not
Getting Enough to Eat.

OMAHA, Neb., Nov. "a Bee special
from Pine Ridge Agency, S. D., says the
condition today 10 considered critical and
the indications are now good that the In
dians are on the point of joining the ghost
dancing faction, but what the result will be
cannot be foreseen.
A Bee special from Rushville, Neb,
says: Today, or ct the longest tomorrow
is the time set for the bloody engagement
between soldiers aud Indians at Pine Ridge
and sdvices up to noon today report all Sc
rene on the battle ground. Your cores
pondent interviewed Baptiste Courier, a
sQuaw man now living on the Sioux reser-
vation and who has lived among the In
dians for 80 years and is intelligent,
wealthy and of wide influence among
them. He stated that no outbreak or dep
relation of any nature would occur. Gen.
Brooke asked X. o. Pugh, issue clerk of
the supply department what rations the In
disns were getting.
Pugh said They are getting ten pounds
of bacon, three pounds of beans. $50 pounds
of beef, one pound of baking powder. fifty
pounds of -four. four pounds of coffee, two
pounds Of soap, seven pounds of sugar and
two bushels Of salt. This quantity is al
lowed to 100 rations for 100 Indians per
day for two weeks. Entirely too little, y
exclaimed the General, with much empha.
sis. "Who of US don't know that people
can't live on that! l don't care whether
they are Indians or what they are, people
cannot be satisfied OF conlented if they
don't have enough to eat"
Said agent Royer They do not get
sll the beef coming to them. Beef weigh
ing 100 pounds when it gets to US shrinks
to 700 before 1t gets to the Indians. The
Indians are the losers"
ats not beef alone that is short re-
sumed the general. "It's about every
thing else except soap, there seems to be
plenty of that

SxowHEGAs, Nov. 25.--A tale Of woe
comes to our ears this beautiful day, that
calls out the just indignation Of our citizens.
A man lies i'll at Hayden Lake i've miles
from here who at one time was in good cir
cumssanees financially. but Who nov, by
reason of his transferring bis property to .
relative, 10 obliged to call on the town
authorities for assistance. Some years ago
this man who had been living in Boston
where he had accumulated little property
came back to his old home in Skowhegan.
His father who owned q good farm just be.
low the village was in debt. This the son
paid taking in return deed of the home
farm Sometime afterward he bought some
iaat. at Hayden Lake IN Madison which is
well known - summer resort, and on this
land he built him 4 summer cottage. The
father, az time rolled on, began to feel un-
easy for his yife's future, should ne die
first. To ease the fathers mind the son
decided to the mother not only the farm but
the property at the lake. Soon afserward
the father died and younger soon took
charge Of the farm to take care of the
mother. The two brothers could not agree
in matters and things generally, so the
older one took up his residence at the Lake.
Some time this season he was taken sick at
his cottage, and IS he required nurse and
necessary comforts, the o. o. +. lodge,
of which he was q member, was applied to
for assistance. Though the sick man was
several years in arrears for dues and as
sessmen.s, the Odd Fellows supplied him
with everything needful for some time. AT
last they thought they had carried him
along long enough, and as they notified the
town authorities to take up the case where
they had left it, as the younger brother, to
whom the mother had now decided the
property in consideration Of her support
for life, positively refused to lend his sick
relative any assistance. General Isaac
Dyer, Chairman Of the Board of Select
men, was seen by the JOURNAL man and
was asked about the matter, the result of
the interview being the facts as stated.
General Dyer says: "The case will be
fully Investigated, and if the sick man has
any rights to any of the property we shall
see that he has it. We are in hopes to re-
cover from the younger son the HAYDEN
Lake property, which is valued at $780,"
In the meantime the sick man will remain
town charge, as the younger brother SAYS
he will no. care for him nor remain at home
if he is brought here. Many censure the
younger brother for his action in the case
but their censure does not effect him in the
least and he strongly declares that it is i'm
possible to live with his brother and if he
is brough. home he will leave the place
himself. The entire property in question
is valued at 5000, but il sold at forced
sale would not bring more than one half
that amount.

penses next year commissioner Mason re-
fers to the bounty section Of tariff bill,
be says:
l am unable at present to make even an
approximate estimate of the expenses
necessary to carry into effect this provision
of the Law. II is believed that il will re-
quire a very considerable sum of money to
establish this bureau to ascertain upon what
sugars this bounty shall be and the rate Of
bounty to which claimants for the same may
be entitled. Congress also enacted . law
authorizing the makers of sweet wines to
use grape brandy, free of taxes. for the
