GENERAL MILES INTERVIEWER.
An Atte mpt Mado to Assassinate
American Horse.


CHICAGO, Nov. 19.--General Miles was
seen by an Associated Press reporter
this evening and asked for the latest in
formation from the Indian troubles.
"rhe same turbulent spirit among the
Indians is manifested Mt Rosebud, Pine
Ridge and Cheyenne agencies" said he.
"rhere is more threatening state of
affairs ut Pine Ridge agency than any
where, and my latest official reports are
that troops have gone to Pine Ridge
from Rosebud.
General Brooke, with three troops of
cavalry and five companies of infantry.
will reach Pine Ridge tomorrow morn
ing. At the same time Lieutenant Col
onel South will reach Rosebud with
three companies of cavalry and three of
infantry. In my opinion, these forces
will be sufficient to protect the lives and
public property at the agencies.
"lf the Indians do not commit any
overt act before the arrival of the
troops, or Immediately upon their ar
rival, ! think the appearance of this
body of troops will have a quieting
effect
IL have information that night before
last American Horse had narrow es-
cape ircni assassination by turbulence
ut Pine Ridge, He is "a prominent
Sioux, and "a friend to the United States
government. He has always been in
clIned to peace and loyalty, and | can
attribute the attempted assassination to
nothing but the hostile and disatiected
spirit of turbulence. He has been
sirenuously opposing their actious."
Referring to u dispatch saying it was
rumored that an outbreak had taken
place at Rosebud agency, the general
said he considered the story premature.
Both Generals Ruyger and Brooke are
acting with the utmost discretion and
care TO prevent hostilities, and protect
the settlements and maintain govern
ment control over the Indians.
The danger is not over. said he, how
ever much the result might be desired
The general added that d saiierted In
dians were scattered over several hun
dred miles OF territory and aggregate in
round numbers 5000 warriors. The
troops scattered over this territory num-
ber about 6,000 and not more than |, 500
Of this number a-e effective mounted
troops.

Strip Live Stock Association has deter
mined to commence proceedings against
the United States government for tho

vacate the Cherokee strip before the ex-
piration of the lease with Cherokee In

the tenants who declined to pay rent

Der that the most famous names in the
literary guild earned their money for
the most part in other than literary
ways. Bryant was an editor and pub
Usher. Longfcllow and Holmes and
Lowell were Harvard professors.
Emerson aud Bayard Taylor were
lecturers. and Taylor was also a Irib-
une editor. Curtis and Stoddard de-
pend upon editorial salaries; Stedman
is broker. and Halleck was John
Jacob Astor's private secretary. And
one might go further with this list.
Whittier began as an editor. and only
in middle life attempted to lean upon

Stealing a Decision.

A paragraph in Western paper t.
the effect that the late Justice Miller
of the Supreme Court was so reticent
concerning the business of the court
that no one. was ever able to obtain
rom him an inkling as to the nature
81 decisions on pending cases, is, of
course, true. He was the most scru-
pulous man alive, but, nevertheless, on
one occasion certain ring OF specu-
lators in New York had advance in
formation us to one OF his decisions
by which they made hundreds Of
thousands Of dollars. 1t came about
in this way: A certain widow of a
certain famous general of the rebel
lion was near neighbor and intimate
friend of the Miller family. She was
woman of extravagant tastes but
small income, and was suspected of
miugling in the lobby now and then
to replenish her purse, but the Miller
family were always her firm friends
and she was as much rt home in their
touse as in her own. 1t was known
that Judge Miller had prepared the
opinion of the Supreme Court in what
was known as the Pacific railroad
cases under the Thurman act, that he
had read it at the :sgular conference
OF the justices Saturday morning, that
it had been approved by the court, and
would be delivered on the following
Monday. AS the decision was certain
TO affect the prices Of all Pacific rail-
way securities very materially which
ever way it went, and as it mighu ruin
the men who held the stocks and
bonds or make their fortunes, there
was an intense anxiety to know its
nature in advance. The agent of a
New York syndicate largely interested
in the securities offered the generals S
widow $50, 900 il she would obtain
this information. She undertook the
delicate task. While the Miller fam
lily were at church Sunday morning
she went to the house, entered Judge
Miller's library, unlocked his desk by
means of skeleton keys, and copied a
portion of the opinion, which was
carried TO New York and was the
basis of very large transactions in
stocks before the opinion was an-
nounced-about 1:30 o'clock on Mon
day. The facts leaked out. the widow
was never allowed to enter the Miller
house again and was never again rec
ognized by any of the family. In fact,
she was compelled to leave Washing
ton in disgrace, but she got her $780,
900.
