Il looks as though General Miles was
alarmed over the problem which confront-
him. Last night he sent dozen cOuriers
to the hostile camp but they met with
"A chilly reception. The leaders OF
the h0stiles are inclined to accept
any reasonable terms. but they are unable
TO control their people. many + whom are
opposed 10 a surrende" which means dis
armment. A conference will be held to-

out and meet the chiefs. ilo will be ac-
companied by Ruflaio Bill, Major John
Burke and his stah. The Indians who
were under Buffalo Bill IN his Wild West
show are now the staunchesi friends OF the

all other agencies toward bringing about
peace.

days. and have not expressed any desire %
approach nearer the strong military force
now ready for business. Ina the rear oi
the h0stiles is General Brooke aud large
body Of troops, but no movement was either
made or expected. General Miles insists
that the hostilos practically surrendered
when they encamped within easy range Of
the big riled guns, but the fact remains
that the delegation Of hostile chiefs aud
