WHY THE INDIANS SURRENDERED.
A Number of British Dukes were Coming

WASHINGTON, Jan. 19.-There is a
great deal of amusement in the war de-
partment over telegram from London
saying that number of British dukes
were about to sail for the United States
in order to assist Buffalo Bill in putting
down the Indians, and the secretary of

of their intentions must have been the
cause of the Indian surrender

Main Building of Dobson's Factory at
PhiIadelphia--Loss Heavy.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan TO- The destruc-
tion of the main building of the carpet
mills of John and James Dobson, of the
Falls of Schuylkill, Friday night, re-
suited in loss of between 500, 600 and
81 ,000 900, and the throwing out of
work nearly 5000 hands. Included in
the loss is the finest lot of machinery
procurable in this or other countries,
and it is feared chat it will be impossi-
bic to duplicate most of it.
Spontaneous Combustion.
Ii is thought that spontaneous COM
buston started the fire. Watchman
Mason first discovered trifing fire in
the dry house ON the third floor, over
the engine room. With several buckets
of water he quelled the flames for the
time being A few minutes after the
flames shot out with renewed vigor and
communicated with hghtning-like rapid
ity to other parts of the building, and
thence to the big main building, which
was soon mass of flames.
The main building was a modern stone
structure six stories high, with base
mcnt, 1t was 800 feet in length, topped
by a mansard roof, and 100 feet wide
Il was built in 1872 The weaving shed
was erected in 1875, and contained
large number of jacquard and other
looms. At $50 the fireman had every
hope of subduing the flames when
large quantity of acids and other mate
rial of an infammable nature in the dye
house exploded.
Two People Hurt.
The only persons reported as having
been injured during the fire were James
Dorsey and John Marley, two employees.
They were slightly hurt by falling from
a ladder while aiding the fremen.

May Shell the Camp.


Friday morning it was reported on
good authority that Gen Miles had or
dered civilians to keep out of the hostile
camp because he intended to disarm the
Indians if he had to shell their camp to
accomplish his purpose. The general
could not be seen to substantiate the
statement.
Adjt. Gen, Corbin was asked if Gen,
neither S mao adt Tfs nor m V9 deny 46s that 9 such TGo
course had been decided upon. So long,
he said, as the arms were being sur
rendered by the Indians there was no
necessity to use force to compel a more
speedy surrender of the weapons, Gen,
Miles was supposed to be patient so long
as the Indians eemed disposed to COM
ply with his demand.

The weapons were received in the name
of Gen Miles and turned over to Agent
Pierce, and tagged with the owners and
chiefs name for safe keeping. The dele
cation was as motley a crowd of crafty
warriors as mortal ever gazed upon.
They would not hesitate to repeat the
story of Wounded Knee, and Agent
Pierce wisely prevented all civilians
from standing around them during the
surrender.
They kept their eyes steadily fixed
upon Gen Miles headquarters, and
seemed disappointed because he did not
appear. Their clothing was not searched,
and no one doubted that they bore hid

that but thirty or forty boxes of fresh

WEAPONS FOR SOLDIERS.
SOME INTERESTING FEATURES OF
LIEUT.. COLLINS COLLECTION.
A New Model Bayonet-Shotguns Made
from Muslxets-rhe New Service Re-
volver-Smokeless Powder.

A HERALD reporter yesterday at army
headquarters had the pleasure of look
ing over Lieutenant Collins collection
OF arms now in use in the army, as we'll
as some relics of former service in the
shape of arms of old patterns now obso-
lete.
Among recent additions to the collec-
tion is a bayonet which slips down into
The place occupied formerly by the ram
rod of the gun. The new bayonet obvi-
aSes the use of the bayonet scabbard
and consequently makes the load car
ried much lighter. The new weapon
has not yet been tested. but looks SER
viceable and convenient.
Another weapon formerly unknown
to the military service is shotgun man
ufactured from old Springfield mus
kets and firing special shot cartridge
manufactured for it in the government
arsenal. The new gun is issued to SOL
diers on service in game countries, two
guns being issued to each company.
The latest cavalry carbine is marvel
of convenience aid accuracy, is sighted
up to 800 yards, with wind gauge. The
shoulder strap is made in such way
that while the weapon is always handy
for use it is not in the way, and if the
soldier is thrown from his horse he is
not deprived of his carbine as was form
erly of frequent occurrence.
The latest service revolver is also a
very fine weapon, carrying heavy cart
ridge. In the new drill for the revolver
the government has allowed for the fact
that a fine sight is impossible,
and the soldier is merely required
to point the weapon as he would point
his finger at an object.
The lieutenant also exhibited several
samples of different grades of the new
smokeless powder recently adopted by
the government.
