Gen. Miles Does Not Fear an Outbreak
This Winter-The Indian Messiah.
A telegram from Gen. Miles was received this

that there seems to be no danger Of trouble
with the Sioux Indians at the Rosebud and
other agencies. The Indians remain restless,
however, and are exciting themselves by fire.
quent war dances and are still looking for the
coming OF the Messiah, who is to exterminate
the white man. The Indian prophets are doing
everything to stimulate the excitement. The
failure OF the Messiah, however, to appear at
specified dates has had somewhat depressing
effect upon their efforts Now it is predicted
that he will appear in December-date not def
nitely fixed in view of past failures at accurate
prediction. Gen. Miles believes that when the
next failure is recorded the influence of the
prophets upon the Indians, already badly
shaken, will be substantially destroyed. There
is. he is certain, no danger of trouble this win

the agitation is continued next spring may wit

taken by the military authorities to promptly
