WASHINGTON, Jan. 17--.This community
was greatly shocked this evening BY the
news that George Bancroft, the venerable
historian. was dead. He had bean In ap-
parently better health this year since his
return from Newport than for several sea-
sons past, 80 his death was sudden and un-.
expected to all save few intimate friends
who knew of the attack of illness which
carried him off. Death occurred at 3:4O
O'Clock this afternoon. The end was auiet 1
and peaceful and chine after a period of
unconsciousnessD lasting about twenty-four
hours. Since his illness two years ago he had
not been as strong as before, but, as men.-
toned above, had been feeling extremely
well since his return to this city. Last
week he caught cold. Notwithstanding
this, he continued to seek out-of-
door exercise every day until Thurs
day, when he took to his bed as a
matter of precaution. His whole illness
was less than three days. He failed rapid
~ yesterday and became unconscious in the
afternoon, in which state he remained un-
til the end. His son, John g. Bancroft,
who, with his wife. kept house for the his
tofian, was with him in the last moments.
II was decided this evening to hold the
funeral services next Tuesday morning in
st. Johns Episcopal church. The inter-
ment will take place at Worcester, Mass,
where Bancroft's wife is buried. Mr.. Ban

employed in the Northern Pacific yard at
this station are on a strike again, rs re-
suit of which no trains have been made up
excepting one or two by q crow at the
freight depot. At the strike Of about two
months ago the men asked that when the
yardmaster employed should be removed
or resign successor should be taken from
among the yard force. This the men claim
the company agreed to. A few days ago
Yardmaster Davis resigned, and the officials
instead of selecting successor from the
yard force. as agreed, imported man fo,
the position. The men requested his re-
moyal, which was refused and after clear
ing up the work ON hand refused to work

PINE RIDGE AGENCY, Jan. 17.--At noon to-
day Gen. Miles sent message to the hos
tile camp asking for conference with the
principal chiefs. There was an immediate
response. The council lasted half M hour.
The chiefs we're Brules, and when the SUBJ
ject OF returning to Rosebud WAS broached,
they said they were in favor of returning if
a military man should be placed over them
as agent and hoped that Capt Lee, of the
Ninth infantry, would be appointed, as
Capt. Pierce was here After a
little more parleying, Big Road stood
up and solemnly and dramatically pro-
claimed himself az in favor of pence. At
the same time he asked those who wished
to join him in restoring peace and working
for the prosperity of their people to raise
their right hand toward heaven. Immedi~
ately every right hand in the gathering was
raised, and with general shaking Of hands
the conference came to u close.
There are no lights in the hostile camp
tonight. Everything is quiet, and the In
pledges they gave TO General Miles.
The council between the friendly and hos
tile Indians has tended to quiet the anxiety
OF many OF the white people, and they as
sure the Indians that their fear of being
massacred by the soldiers is without foun-
dation. Everybody to-day seems to feel
that the trouble has been brought to a
close. Up to noon to-day seventy-one guns
had been turned in by the hostiles.
More weapons are expected to-mor-
row. To-day M order was issued
directing the Seventh infantry. commanded
by Col. Mermiam. which has been serving
on Cherry creek and the lower Cheyenne
river, near Standing Rock agency, to return
TO its post at Fort Logan, near Denver.
Kodney's battery has been ordered back to
Fort Riley, Col. Summers command, conn.,
prising the Eighth cavalry and the Third
infantry, has been ordered to return to
Fort Meade. II has also been decided that
the sixth cavalry, comprising nine troops
of about 800 men, will hereafter be located
in the department of the Platte, with
headquarters at TT. Niobrara. The cav
airy force at Fort Robinson will also be in
creased and it is expected the new order of
affairs will tend to rehabilitate Fort McKin-
ney. at which there are now only two troops
Of the Ninth cavalry, under Col. Henry.
This strengthening Of tho force of cavalry
along the reservation is intended rs safe
guard and to revive the confidence of the
people, who have long been in danger of
Indian outbreaks. The question is now be-
ing discussed of allowing the members of
the First infantry, under Col. Shafter who
feel so disposed, to remain in this depart
ment.

DENVER Jan. 17.-David Young, six
year-old child, whose parents live on South
Sherman and Elizabeth streets, WAS shot
last evening by James McKechy, playmate
u years of age. The little fellow WAS at
home alone when the elder lad entered the
house with revolver in his hand. The in
truder demanded that the boy should throw
up his hands. The bewildered youth failed
for some reason to obey instantly. and
bullet from the revolver entered his right
cheek. and passing behind the nasal organs
lodged in the left cheek bone. The physi-
clans failed to extract the ball last night
and ID is doubtful whether the sufferer can
recover. The above is the story as related
by himself. 1t is claimed that several of
the larger boys attending the Sans Souci
school are in the habit of carrying revolvers.
The pistol was of 22-caliber. The McKechy
boy has not yet been apprehended.

much to the same effect. Owenby had told

the American Ticket Brokers' associat ion,
but some of the offenders are said to belong
to that body. II it is proven they are liable
to forfeit their membership as we'll as to be

otofsky has retained Thompson
Campbell as his attorney. He says that he
has been engaged in scalping tickets for
some time, but went out of the business re-
Gently, and proposed to give his entire at
tention to the clothing trade. A few

Karotofsky signed paper saying he had
no interest in the goods, and there Was no
