GEN. MILES FINAL ORDER,
The Ohicial Announcement Of the Close of
HOstilities Promulgated Today.

The Ohicial Announcement Of the Close of
HOstilities Promulgated Today.
The official announcement Of the termina-
ton Of the Sioux Indian troubles was made
public in general orders No. 8, issued from the
War Department. today. The order is dated
Pine Ridge agency, January IS, and is signed
by Gen. Miles, commanding the division Of the
Missouri
''The division commander" the order says,
''tskes pleasure in announcing the satisfactory
termination of hostilities in this division. The
disaffection among the Indians was widespread,
involving many different tribes The purpose
Of the conspiracy was to produce general up
rising of all the Indians in the coming spring
The hostile element of the Sioux nation pre-
cipitated the movement by leaving the agen-
cies. defying the authorities Of the govern
ment and destroying the property that had
been given them for the purposes Of civiliza-
ton. They assembled in large force on almost
impenetrable ground, known as the Mauvaises
Terres Of South Dakota, and from that rendez-
vous marauding parties robbed both white citi-
gems and friendly Indians on their reservation
and through the adjacent settlements"
Then are reviewed in detail the various incl
dents of the campaign. In conclusion the
order says:
while the service has sustained the loss Of
such gallant officers and patriots as Capt. Wal
commissioned officers and soldiers, who have
given their lives in the cause Of good govern
ment, the most gratifying results have been
obtained by the endurance, patience and forti-
tude Of both officers and men. The work Of
dlsarming the hostiles has been commenced
and will be continued by portion of the COM
mand now in the field and by the agency OFF,
cials.
"As soon as practicable. the troops will re-
turn to their stations and will take with them
the assurance that their services have been of
great value to the country in suppressing one
Of the most threatening Indian outbreaks and
that they have been enabled to keep between
the hostile Indians and tho unprotected settle
ments to such an extent that not a citizens
life has been lost beyond the boundaries Of the
Indian reservations.
In announcing these facts, the division COM
mander desires to express his thanks and high
est appreciation Of the loyal and efficient SER
vice that has been rendered. The mention of
individual names, Of either officers or soldiers
for meritorious conduct will be deferred until
sufficient time is given TO ascertain each heroic
act, in order that it may be properly recognized
and duly rewarded"
