North Dakota SURVEYS.

Surveyor-G General Williams states that
he has closed tho contracts for surveying
the public domain in North Dakota un-
der an act of congress authorizing the
expenditure of $4,000 in the work.
While this amount is wholly inadequate
to carry out the labor that should be
commenced, yet it will make quite a re-
spectacle start. He expects to be able
to ask for some new bids before long, as
it is understood that the secretary of the
interior has allotted $25,OOO more to the
state. This is not officially known as
yet, however. OF the contracts approved
at Washington, and on which work is
now being done, Messrs. Beardsley &
Dyke of Grand Forks will operate in
Bottineau county; R. S. Brookings of
Richardton, in Stark and Morton; T. F.
Marshall of Cakes, in Renville, Buford
and Flannery; "a. A. Soule of Sargent
county, in Sheridan and Church; M. E.
Severance of Ransom county, in Wells;
J. G. Saunders of Dickinson, in Billings.
The Office has made a report to Wash
ington on the probable cost of running
the boundary lines of the Berthold res
ervation, and authority may be expected
in the lear future to begin this. Quite
a large addition will, by these surveys,
be made to the available land in the
state open to settlement, a large bulk of
which will be in the new Minot district.
The clerical force of MI. Williams office
il Bismarck will have their hands full
when the field notes are sent in for plat
ting and recording.

SAN FRANCISCO GRAND Jury.
Two Indictments Found Against As

Two Indictments Found Against As
semblyman Bruner.
SAN Francisco, Oct. 21.-The Grand
jury late this afternoon made a partial
report to Superior Judge Wallace The
report consisted of the finding of two in
dictments against Assemblyman Elwood
Bruner of Sacramento. One Indictment
charges Bruner with the crime of per-
jury, committed while giving testimony
in the Grand Jury-room. The other in
dictment charges Bruner with malfeas-
ance in Office during the late session of
the Legislature. The malfeasance con-
sisted in killing the bill providing for
cinching cut-rate brokers, particularly in
the case of ticket broker Ottinger of this
city, who accuses Bruner of attempting,
in connection with Assemblyman Nc
Call of Alameda, to blackmail him out of
a thousand dollars.
Judge Wallace ordered bench warrants
issued for the arrest of Bruner, which
was Immediately done.
The bail was fixed at $1,000 on each
charge.
Bruner is the Assemblyman who was
charged with selling positions on the San
francisco police force. The Legislative
Committee investigated the case and re-
turned majority report of guilty, with
eXtenuatIng circumstances. The Legis-
lature refused to receive the report of the
committee, and so vindicated Bruner.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2i.-Major-G eneraI
cchoileld. commanding the army, in his
annual report recalls that nearly one-half
OF the infantry and cavalry of the army
was concentrated at the scene of the In
dian disturbance last winter, and then
says: THE campaign teaches lesson
shat the entire military force OF the
United States would be wholly made
quate to prevent great loss of life and
damage to property if general Indian
outbreak should occur. However, he
believes that no considerable number OF
Sioux intended hostilities against the
United States unless driven to it by
hardship. BY the addition of a few thou
sand mon to the enlisted strength OF the
army, whereby sufficient force might az
all times be stationed in the vicinity OF
the great reservations, tho danger OF an
uprising would be entirely removed and
the great expense Of transportation of
troops from distant parts OF the country
entirely avoided"
General Schofield then makes a strong
plea for = reorganization Of the army.
The report notes with satisfaction the
! adoption by Congress of q definite policy
of Improvement in coast defenses.
! Touching the enlistment OF Indians in
tho army the report says the policy has
not yet progressed very fer, but the re-
suits have beca satisfactory, and itshould
be adhered to. The report suggests tho
reorganization of the infantry and artil-
lery, and ali increase i'll the pay of non
