MUST FIGHT OR SKIP.
Indians Say Gen. Miles Must Come
to TaW.

RUsHvILLE, Neb., Jan. 10.-The st.
Louis Post Dispatch correspondent
says: The crisis has been reached and
a general battle is looked for to-mor-
row, as circumstances are against the
submission of the hostiles, and parley-
ing will not be longer continued by
either side. The Indians said yesterday
that Gen. Miles must prepare to fight or
get off the reservation. Gen. Miles. it
is said, has given them until tonight to
surrender, and if they do not come in
by that time he will close in upon them.
This is made necessary by the condition
of his men. Those on the north have
been pretty well worn out with camp
life in this bleak cline and the
cold marches from one position to
another. They cannot stand it much
longer, and unless matters are brought
to an end at once the Indians will have
no one to oppose them but worn-out and
fr0zen-out soldiers who are unfit for
duty. The conduct of the men has been
exceptional, and they have borne their
hardShipS without a murmur. In order
that the situation of the forces just
previous to the expected battle may be
better understood, it may be necessary
to repeat what has already been told.
In the first place, the F., Z. & NJ. V.
railway trains run east and west of the
towns which are situated upon this line.
North of the railway about fourteen
miles is the militia line. They are
stationed at intervals, and mounted
men ride constantly from one to
the other Eleven miles further
and west from Rushville is
the agency, where Gen. Miles is with
his men. Sixteen miles further north
are the Sioux, and due east are found
first the Rosebuds and then the Brules.
Many Of the Rosebuds and Brnles are
already with the Pine Ridge Indians,
but there are many more Oh their re-
SpectiVe reservations who are expected
to join the hostileS the moment there is
an outbreak. The position of the troops
up to this morning was the same as al
ready stated in these dispatches.
But the situation is changing rapidly.
Every line is drawing in. The militia
are moving north, some going further
north than the agency. The regulars
on this side, who were from six to
eight miles from the hostiles, are
moving to within half the distance.
The men are all getting in fighting
trim. Members of Company G, Ne
braska MALTA, were in this morning.
The company is nine miles from Rose
bud agency, and they report that last
night they saw fires and signal lights
which we're communications between
Pine Ridge aud Rosebud hostiles.
Preparations are making for battle,
and every one here anticipates the
bloodiest battle that has ever been
fought in this country. The wives and
families of the officers who are at Pine
Ridge were sent East last night. 1t
was a sorrowful parting for husbands
and wives, for it may be that many of
them will never meet again.

THAT TURNER LETTER.
The Kansas Alliance Comes to an
UnderStandInP.

The Kansas Alliance Comes to an
Understanding.
TOPEKA. Kan. Jan. 10.-The Alliance
members of the legislature and party
leaders had a love feast last night In
their headquarters, and the best of good
feeling seemed to prevail between the
factions, which have been engaged in
bitter turmoil for the last two days over
the publication of the Turner letter to
Frank McGrath, president OF the Alli-
ance. McGrath made statement re-
garding the letter, denying that he had
ever had any conversation with Turner
upon the subject of his candidacy for
the United States senate. The follow
ing resolution was adopted by unani-
nous vote:
Whereas, A letter dated Dec. 81, 1890.
signed r. j. Turner, has been received by
Frank McGrath president of the Farmers
Alliance and Industrial union, containing
Infamous suggestions and offers for the be.
trayal of most sacred trust and confidence;
therefore
Resolved. That we regard the affair solely
as another Characteristic attempt on the part
of the Republican politicians in Topeka and
Washington to prove that moral laws have
no place in politics. and desire on their part
to thwart the will of the people by any
means, however base and corrupt; that we
regard 1t as only another reason for standing
firmly together in earnest, untiring and zeal
Gus devotion TO onr cause; that we deprecate
and condemn all efforts or disposition to In
troduce or foment personal antagOnism or
private pique or jealousy in our party, holding
the common cause higher dearer and more
sacred than individual interest.

NEBRASKA'S BROIL.
Militia Desert Thayer and Co
Over to Boyd.

Over to Boyd.
LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 10.-The guber-
Material situation remains unchanged.
Gov. Boyd is recognized by the other
state officers Ex-Gov. Thayer still in
sists that he is still at the head of the
state government. 1t is evident
that Gov. Boyd's warrants Will
be honored by the auditor and
treasurer, while Gov. Thayer
will not be able to have supplies for his
militiamen, pending the settlement OF
the controversy by the supreme court.
In the senate this morning little busi-
ness was transacted, and an adjourn
ment was taken until Monday after
noon. Several important bills were
introduced. but the proceedings were
tame throughout. This morning when
Gen. Vibquain, the new adjutant gem
eral, arrived at the capitol he found
Capt. Rhody in command OF twenty-five
milItiamen at ex-Gov. Thayer's room.
He ordered the captaino TO go with
HIM to Gov. Boyd's room. The
captain obeyed orders, and, ar
irving there. saluted Gov. Boyd
as commander-in-chief, and awaited
orders. In few moments Gen. Vif-
quain gave him an order to repair with
his command to the cOmpany's barrrckS
and await orders. With this command
in his hand he went with the general TO
Thayer's room, and, ordering the COM
panv to fall in, gave the oroers:
''Reverse arms, forward march,"
Thayer entreated him to allow the
militia to remain, but, Saluting him,
Capt. Rhody said:
IL salute you for the last time. I
recognize the authority of the COM
mander-in-chief, Gov. Boyd"
And the company slowly marched
from the state house to their barracks.
The next move will be to forcibly eject
Thayer from his present room, if he
still persists in imagining himself gov
ernor. Gov. Thayer left his office this
evening in charge of clerks and went
home, and Gov. Boyd left his Office I'm
charge of Private Secretary Higgins and
went to Omaha. The legislature has
adjourned until Monday afternoon.

he be made to understand that his time
for politics has passed. He ought not
to attempt to play any role, es-
pecially that of opposition. Every
body knowing him intimately can see
that he does not comprehend the needs
of our time." The emperor's words re-
ferred directly to the encouragement
that is being given by Prince Bismarck
to the Conservative opposition. The
latest interview accorded by Bismarck,
which was given to the journalist, Max
Bewer, exhibits him as absorbed in the
enjoyment of domestic life and
farming and foresting projects. Bewer,
after getting the princes opinion of the
best smoking tobaccos and the cultiva-
tion of trees, succeeded In turning the
conversation to France. On this sub
ject the princes most incisive express
to exterminate the French. Germany
will never wage merely prophylactic
war. The chemist is the man who will
answer the war question. Whatever
enemy of ours gets the best powder first
will give the
Signal for the Attack.

RED CLOUDS EVIDENCE.
He Says the HostiIes Number
1000 Souls.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 10.-A special to the
Globe Democrat this morning says:
"Your correspondent to-day had an it,
terview with Red Cloud, who arrived
from the hostile camp yesterday. When
questioned as to the strength of the
Brules or the dare-devils who are caus-
ing all the trouble, he said
There are 1000 warriors, not count
ing old men and the women and chill
dren, or 5000 all told. With the Ogal-
lalas, who are still with the hostiles, the
camp numbers 1000 souls"
Red Cloud being pressed with ques-
tions, said that the Brules were armed
as well as the soldiers. This interview
shows the magnitude of the job which
lies before the soldiers, for it is tacitly
admitted that, whether the hostiles sur
render or not, they will be disarmed and
dismounted. 1t cost the Seventh cavalry
eighty-three officers and privates to dis
arm $50 of Big Foot's band, and it is ad-
mitted by everybody here that the hos
tiles whoare on White Clay creek will
never give up their rifles and ponies
without fight.

Pierce Ahead.
From present indications it Is plain
that Pierce leads in the fight for sena-
tor, and it is rapidly being conceded
that he will succeed himself. The mat
ter of patronage still holds the opposI-
tion together, and it is stated openly in
the lobbIes that this is all that keeps
the opposition in the field. There Is
talk of dark horse that will unite all
those opposed to Pierce, but some say
this is only dodge to force Pierce to
pledges in regard to patronage. Sew
eral caucuseS of various factions have
been held at different times,b but nothing
tangible was accomplished, and 1t seems
a hopeless task to unite the opposition.
This is the only chance to take from
Senator Pierce his strong lead in the
fight, and if it can be accomplished
Pierce will be beaten.

ROOF CRASHED IN.
Two officers Killed and Many
Wounded,

ROME, Jan. 1O.-A dispatch from
Reggie, the capital of Reggie Nell En-
ilelia, fortified city of North Italy,
about fourteen miles from Modena,
brings news of terrible disaster. 1t
appears that while a number of the
officers of the garrison were being exer-
cised in the military riding school this
morning the roof of the riding school
suddenly crashed in, hurting huge
beams of wood and showers of tiles into
the arena. When the troops, who were
promptly called to the scene of the dis
aster, sue ceeded in removing the de-
bris, it was found that two officers were
killed, six were seriously injured, and
ten others were slightly wounded. The
accident is supposed to have been
caused by the fact that the roof had
been subjected to too much strain
through the recent severe snow storms,
when masses of snow were allowed 10
accumulate over the riding school.

ROOT OF THE TROUBLE.
Congressman Flower Would In
vesti0ate the Indian Bureau.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 10.-Representa-
tive Flower, of New York, to-day in
troduced in the house long preamble
and resolution with reference to the In
dian troubles in the West. The pre-
amble recites, among other things, that
Gen. Miles is reported to have openly
charged that the Indians now in insur-
rection have been starved into revolt:
that Gen. Armstrong, late an Indian in
spector, is authority for the statement
that in the delivery of cattle purchased
by the government for the Indians
great loss is sustained through detect
i've arrangements for their receipt and
care, and thatthe present trouble among
the Indians has been caused by the mis-
management of the Indian bureau.
The resolution there fore provides for
the appointment Of committee OF five
members of the house to investigate
and inquire into the management or
the Indian bureau for the purpose or
ascertaining whether or not the charges
are true.
