response TO one sent by Gen. Schoheld
asking the truth about the rumor that Big

stated that he had been unable TO learn

would find out its scope and significance at

that this movement will be followed by
anything like last winters outbreak. Gen.
Schofeld said this morning: THE state
OF things in the Indian country today Is
far better than it was a year ago. There is
more content among the Sioux this winter
than .ast, and this is mainly due TO the
fact that the affairs Of the government as
far as they affect the Indians are, i be-
lieve, being better administered. / do not
think that there are any signs to be dis
cerned now of trouble this winter, for, as
