by the recent happenings. The Liberals,
who, under the leadership OF Mr.. Gladstone
and Mr.. Morley, were prepared for an ac-
tive assault upon the Government, seem
paralyzed, and the Tories, instead OF being
on the defensive, are aggressive and tri-
umphant.
LORD sPENcER's POSITION.
Lord Spencer. speaking to-day at Brom-
ley. said that Mr.. Gladst0ne's letter to Mr.
Morley in regard to Mr.. Parnell had struck
a note in harmony with the feelings OF all
the Liberals The Irish party had been too
severely criticised on account OF their atti-
tude. They owe debt OF the
deepest gratitude to Mr.. Parnell, and he
(Lord Spencer) honored them for not in
moment throwing over their leader. When
the higher consideration Of the permanent
welfare OF their country came into opera
tion they would respond 10 the appeal OF the
English Liberals and ask Mr. Parnell to re-
tire. Ii would be a mighty misfortune to
Ireland. the Empire and the Liberal party II
SIR. Parnell remained in ofiice. Lord Spen-
GERS opinion would not be altered in that
case. file would still resist coercion, but he
would cut away from the old policy and try
a new one.
PARNELL DETERMINED.
The Press Association states that Mr..
Paruel considers himself most unfairly
treated by me of his colleagues VINO pra'-
tically owe their positions 10 him. ana he
also feels strongly in regard To Mr.. Glad
stones attitude. lie is more d termiued
than ever to remain IN office. Ii Mondays
meeting Of the Nationalists antagonizes
him he will appea, to the Irish people.

THE INDIAN TROUBLES.
Indications that They VIII be Settled
without Difficulty.

PINE RIDGE. :. D., Nov. 27.-Unless the
Indians are frightened or driven into fight
during the next week, there is every proba-
hiity that ,he Indian troubles on Pine
Ridge agency will be settled without diff
Guilty. The authorities are reticent about
their plans. but there can he little doubt
that an effort will be made 10 dissrm the
Pine Ridge, if not the whole Sioux nation
The effort will include Pine Ridge. Rosebud,
Cheyenne River. and Standing Rock. In
connection with this. Red Cloud. NO Water,
Jack Red Cloud. and Big Road are in some
danger Of being arrested.
FIRST NEWS OF IMPORTANCE.
The first actual move OF public import
ance At Pine Ridge was made YESTERDAY
when Agent ROyer announced that the beef
issue would be- postponed. How long it will
be- cut oil it Is not stated, but the desire il TO
get all the Indians into the agency befoge
giving out the beef. There are several
thousand Pine Ridge Indians who have not
reported. Those Of them who are inclined
TO hostility are not suffering for
beef. Every day reports come in OF
animals slaughtered 10y the Indiana. Thou
sands Of cattle range on the reservation
during the summer and fall, and OF these
the Indians are killing many. A number
are reported as wantOnly slain. In several
places carcasses have been found with ar
rows sticking in them. While this state OF
Affairs continues there IL little probability
of Agent KOyer's latest movement having
any effect unless il be TO make the friendly
1dans at the agency restless and dis
satisfied. 1t is now conceded that
Royers first mistake was in call
ing for troops before there was any
need OF them. This has brought about dan
ger Of lighting. Troops cannot now with
draw without jeopardizing the agents au-
thoritv. and it is feared if the tension IS
continued much longer the young men who
are inclined to fight will 60 off on raids in
small bands. Reports at army beadquarter.
