The Soldiers Should BE Kept in the Strip
indefinitely.
WASHINGTON, Sept. IA. General
Miles has made II report to the war
department on the condition of affairs
in the Cherokee strip from which he
was instructed to remove all cattle.
General Miles writes that by the 18th
of September all cattle will have been
removed. About 1000 head are hcrded
together near Fort Supply, which are
awaiting removal by cars, and will be
cleared out Us soon as possible. The
most important part of his letter is
suggestion to the secretary of war
He recommends that number Of
troops of cavalry be stationed at yari-
Gus points in tho strip, with in
structions to remove all cattle and inv
vnders MS soon as they mako their ap-
pearance. This suggestion is prompted
by past experience. AS soon as the
troops turn their backs, after having
carried out their orders, the cattlemen
again invade the strip with their cat
tie and Craze them as before. General
Miles idea is to have the troops re-
main in the strip under standing
orders TO enforce the presidents proc
lamation. In that way there could be
no recurrence of the violations Of the
law. which hsecessitates military move
ments of considerable scope, and are
then only brought abou5 after action
is taken first by the interior and then
by tho war department. Secretary
Ellsins is not now in the city, but Will
doubtless approve the plan on his re-
turn. General Miles letter will prob.
ably be referred to the interior depart.
