Each seam is finished with n band of

no draperies, no fiounces, and no
more fullness at the front and sides

said to be the most widely known
American theatrical manager i'll the
world.
The English papers say that Mary
Anderson, who is said to bepreparing
her dramatic "reminiscences for the
press, has filled out considerably since
her marriage, and except for her per-

giddy thing who danced about in "a

Attorney General Miller Objects to ths
HebriDg Sea Petition.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.--It ia understood
that the cabinet considered the Behring sea
controversy and Indian question at the reg
ular meeting to-day. but II is impossible 10
obtain any official information on the sub
jcct. Attorney General Miller does not ap-
pear disturbed over the turn affairs have
taken. II is learned through perfectly
competent authority that this apparent
complacency is due to the fact that the case
is not regularly before the supreme court
for final settlement. "You see." said this
official, ''the petitioners moved an iniunc-
ton, or rather prohibition, as it is termed
in admiralty cases. The attorney general OBJ
jected to the introduction of the motion on
several grounds. He asserted that the su-
preme court has no jurisdiction in the case
at issue, which originated in the district
court Of Alaska. Then he argued briefly
that the case in point was a political one,
without legal aspect, and had no place in
the supreme court. He also took the
ground that it was unconstitutional for the
supreme court to administer upon matters
belonging to the executive department..
There were several other minor points IN
his argument. The discussion, which will
take place in two weeks, and the decision
rendered, will in no way affect the merits
of the case"

A Morning Scene Calculated to Impress q

A Morning Scene Calculated to Impress
BehoIder.
PINE RIDGE AGENCY. s. D.. Jan. 13.-The
situation this morning is this: The In
dians are in camp within full view of the
north Notifications. the right of their COL
umn resting there, and the line extending
northeasterly, running up the gulch behind
the bluffs. Behind them is a natural am
phitheatre, with rugged, broken slope,
200 feet to its crest. 1t is inst mile from
the agency, and White Clay creek runs
through it. On the plain are tepees by the
hundreds pitched irregularly, and huddled
together in groups here and scattered
widely apart there. Moving about
among tho tepees. the field glass
shows the bucks and squaws with their
children and dogs. Such a spectacle i'm
prints itself ON the mind with startling
clearness, for it is huge in its grandeur,
strikingly unique and wonderfully pictur-
esque. Just between the plain and the
agency, perched on the hill behind the
earthworks, is three-inch rifle which is
trained ON ;he camp. Suddenly two Indi-
ans were seen on the crest of the hill but q
short distance beyond the other pickets.
Then others appeared on tho hill to the
northwest and then body of more than a
hundred bucks rose up on the crest of the
hill behind which the hosties
were. The number steadily in
creased to 400 by accessions from
the bands ranging in numbers from
five to twenty-five. Capt. Dougherty was
Immediately notified. He dispatched a
courier to the headquarters TO notify Gen.
Miles of their movements, and then hurry
ing to the Notifications he had the gun
prepared for action. The range finder nd
iusted his sights and tho cave III which the
ammunition was stored was opened. line
of skirmishers were sent out beyond the
Notifications on the crest OF the hill. Or.
ders were sent to the cavalry to saddle and
be in readiness to move south
east of the camp. Gen. Miles
accompanied by Buffalo Bill, and his ste Il,
RODE to the fortiiication and made II circuit
of tho camp. Extra ammunition was issued
and when everything was III readiness the
troops waited.
After two hours Gen. Miles received word
from the Indians that they dld not mean
to make any advance, but they would like
TO talk with him. The general sent them
word to go quietly into camp and he would
receive ten Of their chief men. An hour
later they were csmped with the end Of
their column on the plain. Their camp is
more than three miles long and there are
| 7.OCO Indians in it. of whom :. 800 nre war
riors. Late last night tile friendlies
| decided that they wanted none of the hos

pits and say that II even Il solitary warrior

will arrest him. and ii he resists they will
kill him. Still. this does not give "a feeling

camp Ia between the agency. and in the re-
| trent. il fight takes place, no one will
know a friendly from a hostile, and the

SPOKANE FALLS, Jan. 13.-[special.]- J.
Word has reached here that the Indians
have burned the village OF CaIispel. about
100 miles north of this city, and killed sev-
eraI people. The village is in mn isolated
valley, a long distance from teleRraphic
communication. The report is net gener-
ally credited, although considerable anx-
iety Is felt for the people OF that locality,
as the Calispel Indians are known to be
u sullen and disagreenble set. Gen. Curry,
commanding national guard. and Lieut..
White leave tomorrow for the Okanagan
district with 200 stands OF arms for set

vice-Warlikc scenes Of tine Early
Morning Hour.

PINE RIDGE AGENCY, Jan. 13.-Contrary
to expectation there WAS no conference be-
tween the chiefs of the hostiles and Gen.
Miles. The latter says the Indians are still
timid and apprehensive of punishment and
he proposes to allow couple OF days to
elapse before attempting to bring negotia-
tions to close. Thus far the disposition
he has shown to treat the Indians kindly
has made for him many warm friends
among them. This fact coupled with the
pains which Capt. Pierce. the new agent,
is taking to show the Indians that every
thing they are entitled to under the treaty
will be issued to them, will undoubtedly
have beneficial effect, although until the
trouble is really over, there will be the ever
present fear that injudicious action on the
part of some one may precipitate blood
shed.
IA member Of company q, Second in
fantry, who came in to-day with detach-
ment Of the Seventh infantry, under Maj.
Egbert, reports that 600 bucks broke away
from the hostile camp last night and have
been followed by Col. Sanford and Col.
Henry. At headquarters no such report
has been received and Assistant Adjutant--
General Corbin says the rumor was occa-
stoned by the fact that the commands men,
toned had left in the direction of Wound
ed Knee on q scout.
This evening there is no change in the
situation. The hostiles are still in camp,
and the chiefs may come in Tomorrow
There is now under discussion the advisa-
bility of enlisting scouts for service on
the reservation. The agency is now
guarded by force of ninety-nine Indian
policemen, sixty of whom were enlisted
for two months at the time the trouble
broke out. To thirty-nine regular police
men an offer was made giving them the op
tion of entering the scouting serv :
ice or remaining in the police
force. In the former their
pay would be $13 per mouth with an allow.
ance for horses. bringing the total up te
$25 per month. This party Of scouts would
be distinct from the scouts now under the
command of Lieut.. Taylor, of the Ninth
cavalry. and who have enlisted since the
opening Of the campaign. Taylor will en-
deavor to take his command with him tC

assured that they will be given permanent
employment, have to a man decided to be-
come scouts.
Big Foot's wife, injured at Wounded
Knee. died last night.
| Red Eagle, son of American Horse, visited
| the hostile camp this afternoon and on his
return this evening said the BruIes want to
stay at this agency and want to keep their
guns. Red Eagle thinks it would be very
inadyisable for Gen. Miles to say anything
about disarming now. The old men are all
right and want to avoid fight but the
that they are surrounded by troops and and
cannot fight does not cut any figure with
| them.

most disgraceful affair. Up to the thirty
third round it was an interesting contest,
gamely fought. In the thirty. fourth, when
the Canadian had Lindsay all but knocked
out, they clinched and in the fall Lindsay
landed on top. He arose and deliberately
kicked Gilmore in the head. But despite
the foul, the referee ordered them to fight
on. But when Lindsay repeated the foul
in the thirty-fifth round, and after the af-
fair developed into small-sized riot, the
fight was given to Gilmore.
