day. The furnace, which was blown out
for refining and repairs, made necessary

without warning when the men were en-

work in the inside at the bottom and about
six on top when the accident occurred.

the returnment of Parnell. In this con-
nection, it may be stated, however, that
nothing is known here of any manifesto by
American bishops, as a body, and it is be-
.lieved no such step as the issue of such pa
per has ever been contemplated. The fact
leaked out to-day that while the Irish en-
voys were in Cincinnati, a special delegate
was sent by the leading Irishmen of Bos-
ton all the way to Cincinnati. His mis-:
sion was to urge the ENJOYS to conceal
Parnell's retirement. Tonight the Dillon
O'Brien party admitted that they were dis
cussing the adyisability OF a journey to
New York. Up to $3.50 p. m no time for
such a step had been fixed. Harrington at
the same hour said he was thinking of a
trip to Detroit to visit some personal
friends, but like the other ENJOYS, had been
unable t. reach a decision. O'Conner. said
there was no truth to the report that a
cablegram had been received by himself
and comrades from London, regarding the
reported compromise and that the proceed
ings there were to be postponed to await
action of the ENJOYS in Chicago.

One Cause of til Trouble.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-Secretary Proc
tor this morning received two kilograms
from General Miles at Chicago. In one he
quotes General Brooke as saying one Of.
the main causes of discomfort among the
hostile Indians is that a certain band of
Sioux living on Pass creek in the Rosebud
agency, have been ordered to move, against
their will. These Indians desired to be-
transferred to the Pine Ridge agency and
have secured the consent of the Indians
now there. General Brooke in asking for
authority to permit the transfer, states that
in his opinion this would still further aid
IN the disinteKration of the hostile element.
General Miles telegraphed him in reply he
had ample discretion, but advised him
not to make promises to the Indians. He
could assure them, however, that the gov
eminent had secured increased rations and
more general employment, and tina the
soldiers would be their friends as long as
mics should they commit crimes and dep
relations. General Miles adds that in his
opinion the transfer can be made erman-
ent hereafter if deemed advisable. In the
other telegram General Miles says reports
from Genera BROOKE INDICATE a more Ia
in to-day. General Miles says he
does not regard Two Strikes
threat to stab General Brooke fas The
signal for hostilities as important, inas-5
much as it was made by an Indian in al
harangue to his W people and not in the
presence OF a strong body Of United States
troops. He says that in case d%isintegra-S
ton continues, the threatened outbreak
will be prevented for this winter at least,
The situation is still a. grave one in his
opinion, and will require extreme watch
fuiness on the part of the authorities to-
satisfy the Indians and to avert hostilities
until spring.. In response to the senate
resolution asking for information respect
ing the disarmament Of the Indians in the
northwest, the secretary of war to-day
to congress a letter from
Major. General SchOiield and a mass al
official correspondence.
