JUDGE BURNS STORY.
He Gives a Rather Lurid Account OF
the Doings OF the Hostiles.

PINE RIDGE Agency, S. D., Via Rushville,
Neb) Dec. Especial Telegram to TnE
BEE Judge Burns of Deadwood came in
this noon from running the gauntlet of the
hostile camp. He says he is devoutly thank
full al having escaped with his life. There is
no doubt he says, but that the red workers
for war are preparing thoroughly for great
struggle and that they have no thought of
giving up their purpose, A member of the
camp proclaimed his approach when she
was long way off so that
when he neared the camp he found it brist-
ling with preparation for an attack. The
hostile band is made up almost exclusively of
young men who have disregarded the advice
of the old chiefs, taken the rens into their
own hands andhavevowed to fight until death.
The ghost dance, Judge Burns said, further,
is being done all night long and is varied dur
ing the day with the old time war dance. He
corroborates FULLY the previous reports as to
the abundance of food and ammunition which
they have and says they are making up big
supply Of a new pattern of tomahawk which
is moro ugly than the old style What
friendly Indians there are left here at the
agency are coming in and telling Agent
Royer that they do wish this thing could be
settled without bloodshed. Royers reply is
IN effect that he is afraid it is too late now.

MUST NAVE A STRONG LEADER.
Parncll the Man TO Whom Home
Rulers Will Look

DUBLIN, Dec. 1.-lSpecial Cablegram to
Tue BEE. The Ereemans Journal today
says: "The crisis is the most momcntous
that has ever occurred in Ireland. The posi-
ton is, however, freed from many of the
dangers that encompassed tho split between
OConncll and the young Ireland party. The
people are now educated and politically or
ganized. While Parncll's manifesto has re-
pulsed many of his former supporters, it has
been serviceable to Ireland by giving certain
matters the light of day. This will enable
us to know where we stand. Gladstone sin
cerely desires to pacify ireland, but he has to
deal with followers less honest and
sincere than himself. Mr.. Parncll has
shown himself capable of gaugiug and deal
ing with these men. They dread him be-
cause he knows their measure. How will
they act In the future in dealing with men
who lack Parnelps extraordinary and com
mandinE characterI Bclieviugin the triumph
of home rule, we cannot forget Gladstone's
age. We do not hesitate to say that whitfield
down home rule will pcrpetuate the condition
of affairs that all desire to have ended. At

anda made at the time. Gladstone declines
to acknowledge any further communication
from him.
AT II 80 another motion for adjournment
was pressed. This time II was till l9 O'Clock
tomorrow. This, after some demur from
malcontents, was carried. am assured the
final vote will then be taken and that it will
result in the defeat Of Panell by a consider
able maj jorlty. After that the battle-ground
will be transferred to Ireland and the United
States Parnell will mount guard in the
house with about twenty-five men prepared
to take any steps necessary to secure
his ascendency. I'm the opinion of some
Of the Oldest members of the house
an opinion share1, have reason
to believe, by Balfour-ho will yet
trample down all opposition and disperse his
foes in all directions, 1t is a serious loss to
the rebels that they can not have Dillon and
O'Brien among them for at least six months
after their return, owing to their sentence of
imprisonment. Palmel and his followers
will score heavily during their enforced
absence.
Thus the greatest revolution IN Irish poll
tics advances. Some OF Parnell's antagonists
tell me tonight that but for his manifesto
they would never have gone against him.

To the Senate and House of Representatives
he reports of the several executive de-

in the usual course will exhibit in detail the
operations of the government for the last

A Hundred More Friendlies Retreat

PINE RTDoE AGENcY, S. D., (via Rushvie
Neb) Dec. Especial Telegram 20 THE
BEE. The Rosebud Indians on Wounded
Knee have not come in, but have moved
about ten miles north across White river,
close to the bad lands. They went there IN
view of having convenient hiding place
when the troops go after them. They can
easily hide but the troops can starve them
out in a short time About one hundred
lodges that stood on the north side of Wolf
creek have disappeared since last even
ing, they having pulled up stakes
between then and daybreak. Old-timcrs do
not know what to think about this move. 1t
is considered by some as an omen of trouble,
while Others look at it in more Cheerful
light The Indians who broke into houses
were starving and had to do something TO
keep body and soul together.
The troops are still ready to move on n mo-
ments notice. High Hawk, one of the
chiefs of the Rosepuds, sent q letter to Royer
this morning. 1t is reported that this letter
contains this threat:
Send>your soldiers to take us We are all
ready to fight HIGH HAWK,
The failure OF the government to protect
the property of friendly Indians has caused
a great deal of adverse talk. "Such treat
ment 10 burning shame" said Special
Agent Cooper late last night. II wouldn't
blame these friendly Indians il they would
every one turn traitors and fight us. They
sec there have been soldiers here for
more than o. week, and yet not move has
been made, not n gun raised, to protect the
homes and property they left IN obedience to
tho governments command These Indians
are not being fairly dealt with; no, sir, long
ways from 1t. did not want to censure the
govern ment, but tell you that its action or
rather inaction, during the past week has
laid the foundation for a new source of dis
satisfaction that will keep the In
dians turbulent for four years to come.
l have worried and thought about
this thing until am fighting mad. Where is
the governor of any state in the union that,
If he heard a band of nIarauders, no matter
what might be the color Of their skins, was
robbing and burninghomes and stealing cat
tie by the hundreds of heads, would not order
the state militia TO the spot Immediately ?
And here we have had eleven to twelve
hundred soldiers here for week while just
such reports have been coming in, verified u
dozen times over every day.n
ayes, sir" added Agent Royer, 'the mac
tion of the troops during the first week while
these depredations have been in full swing, is
going to result in our having perfect hell
on this reservation for years to come, and |
doubt il its influence can ever be eradicated.
Our action has been that of treachery in the
eyes of the Indians and many of them will
carry this conviction TO their graves with
them',

CHICAGO, Dec. 1.-The Irish delegates were
gathered in Dllon's room tonight when the
news of Parncll's speech in the London con-
clave of the Irish party was being received
over the Associated press wire. The dis
patch was sent sheet by sheet to the hotel
and read to the others by Dillon. The read
ing was listened to with profound attention
At its conclusion Harrington was asked by
an Associated press representative as to how
he now regarded the outlook for Parnell's
retention of the leadership. He replied ;
"If the applause given Parnell was as great
as | infer from the dispatch, / think more
than ever that he may eventually triumph.
The delay in reaching IA conclusion is, per-
haps, also significant"
Harrington it will be remembered did not
sign yesterdays manifesto.
William O'Brien was asked for an opinion.
He paused an instant, then said declsivey
"We have said our say The rest we win

herder, came in tonight and gave very i'm
portant and sensational news. He said that
all the cattle had been driven
away by the hostile Indians, and
that the latter had not only taken
full possession of the government cattle
there, numbering some three thousand head
but had burned off the cntiro range. He said
they had camped in the big basin of the bad
lands, also that the hostiles were scouting
the whole range between the White and
Cheyenne rivers thus placing the lives and
property of all settlers between those streams
in jeopardy, which means death and utter
devastation il interfered with. This means

late, He made two runs at sixty and one at

Mr. Parnell, in the ultamatum to Mr.. Glad
stone mentioned ie this mornings telegrams,
adhered to his former statement that tho as.
pirations of the Irish people were endau-
gered by the proposals made in
the conversations which took place
at Hawardcn, and tried to prove that concern
for the points involved in those conversa-
tions was his governing motive. He sug-
gested in the ultimatum that Mr.. Gladstone
sign pledge to include in the next home rule
bill the points which he Parnell) considers
essential TO its success. In this event. he
says, he would consider the advisability of his
retiring from his position As head of the ma
tionalist party. Mr.. Gladstone the Gazette

To Cnpe Sitting Bull.

ST. PAUL Dec IA special from Standing
Rock agency says it is considered probable
that Sitting Bull will come in next Saturday
and when he does he will be arrested.
Major Mclaughlin, the agent said today
"There is no reason why Sitting Bull should
not be arrested as soon as he comes within
reach of this agency. He has broken his
promise to send his children to school and
did not come in last rations day as ! ordered.
/ have ten scouts out and If the old recreant
comes within the limits of the agency they
will bring him in. The weather does not get
as cold as wish or Sitting Bull should be cap
tured and confined. His influence is strongly
and constantly for evil and while he does not
participate in the ghost dance to the extent
of jumping about and yelling he keeps the
frenzy at the highest pitch.
Gaul and John Grass are thoroughly loyal
and it seems probable Sitting Bull win be a
prisoner before many days.

Indians be supplied with increased rations
sufficient to conform to the agreement of
