TERRITORY oUTLAWRY.
Marshal Crump OF Arkansas Instructed
to Exterminate the Desperadoes

Marshal Crump of Arkansas Instructed
to Exterminate the Desperadoes.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-It has been
decided that the present situation in
the Indian Territory is not such as to
warrant the secretary of war in call
ing out United States troops and the
authorities in the territory have been
so notified. This, however does not
mean that the government is to
abandon or in any degree relax its
efforts tc bring the Cook gang of out
laws to justice. On the contrary.
United States Marshal Crump of Ar
kansas, who has made areputation for
himself in dealing with the tough ele-
ment in the Southwest, will
continue with increased vigor
his pursuit of the marauders
and it is believed that with
the liberal instructions which have
been given him as to the employing
OF deputies he will not fail in his mis-
sion. The presence of any consider
able military force it is not doubted
would have salutary effect in quiet
ing the fears of the inhabitants, yet
1t is thought it might defeat the ends
sought by scattering the outlaws and
thus making their capture difficult if
not impossible. Marshal Crump, with
a force of deputies, will pursue the
same tactics as are followed in fight
ing the indians. They will keep on
their trail night and day until they
are exhausted and forced to surren-

CAPTURE OF POnT ARTHUR.
The Japanese Made Concerted Rush
With Twenty Three Torpedo Boats.

The Japanese Made Concerted Rus
With Twenty Three Torpedo Boats.
LONDON, Nov. ga dispatch re-
ceived here from Shanghai asserts
that twenty-three japanese torpedo
boats made concerted rush upon the
entrance of the harbor of Port Arthur
and that at the same time the Japan
csc land forces attacked the place
from the rear, while heavy artillery
fire was poured into the Chinese
forts. The Japanese infantry then
stormed defense after defense. The
Chinese resisted feebly. There were
few hand to hand fights, but finally
the Chinese became panic-striken and
the japanese carried everything be-
fore them.
A dispatch to the Times from
Shanghai confirms the Times dis
patch from Che Foo, that the Japan
csc troops are re-embarking at Port
Arthur for further operations.
Another dispatch from Shanghai
says that the third japanese army
corps, which left Japan on November
20, is supposed to have been sent to
attack Wei Wei, where a portion of
the Chinese navy remains. The dis
patch adds that the place will be
easily captured, as the Chinese sol
diers who were encamped for its de-
Tense at Chi Ii are DESERVING in thou
sands. The whole place is said to be
IN state of utter collapse and con-

WASHINGTON, Nov 26.-James Gle
.nents, agent of the Santee Indians
in Nebraska, in his report to Secre-
tary Smith, says: Having spent
nearly six years in the service on
Rosebud agency, where the Indians
maintain that of their tribal rela-
lions, / had come to the conclusion
that these Indians were easily
managed, but on assuming duty here
where they have become citizens, l
have changed my mind and found
them more difficult to manage than |
expected. Agency control and rules
conflict with the state laws and
citizenship. We are under county
organization and the Indian is told
that he is citizen and has all the
rights of a citizen. He pays taxes on
his personal property, still the county
objects to paying the cost on Indian
misdemeanor cases. And the agent
has no power to punish except to dis
criminate against him in issues. But
the trouble arises from intoxication.
They have but little trouble to get
what they want The Indian
loves liquor and will sell any
thing to get it. In some of the
neighboring towns they rather
encourage than discourage the
traffic. The complaint then comes
that the agent is not doing his
duty by allowing these Indians to get
drunk, but they do not try to stop the
man who sells it to them. In this,
the state laws of Nebraska conflict
with the federal, so the agent is
powerless. From what | see and
learn from responsible parties there
has not been much advancement made
in general in the past few years, NOR
ally, financially, or otherwise"
As to Indian payments, the agent
says: Although l am but a short
time in charge here, yet l believe |
can safely say that it would be to the
interest of these people to pay them
In cash in lieu of annuity and agri-
cultural goods. They make but little
use of the clothing; they trade it off
for what they can get You will
see but few men wearing the
issued clothing. And l think it
would be also better to give them
cash in place of cattle. as they have
but limited outlet and trouble
arises from tresspass on their white
neighbors' property. They will dis
pose of them at less than half their
cost in order to get rid of trouble.
Giving them what is due them in cash
would, l believe, help to advance
them in civilization. / believe the
issuing of goods and rations is only
making so many trained beggars and
has demoralizing effect"
Captain William II. Beck, Tenth
cavalry, acting agent at the Omaha
and Winnebago agency in the same
state, gives the following rather dis
couraging view of Indians, which
were supposed to be in quite a state
OF advancement: THE 0mahas and
Winnebagos both continue to
carry out many old customs,
which are in antagonism to
their civilization. The older
members of both tribes keep up their
dancing--war dances, medicine dances
and others-at which they appear
costumed as they were years ago.
They antagonize the form of mar
riage under the state law; they re-
quire the younger people to return to
the Indian mode of dress, even after
they have been away from the reser-
walton to school. They object, in the
majority, to any but medicine men
of the tribe attending the sick or in
iured

THINGS LOOK BRIGHTER.
Trade improvement Still Continues,

Trade improvement Still Continues,
Though Slowly.
New YORK, Nov 26.-R. G. Dun Il
Co.'S Weekly Review OF Trade saws:
There is some change for the better.
The gain is slow and in some direc-
tions not very distinct, but the signs
OF it are little more definite than
last week. The most important of
them is the larger employment of la
Dor, answering a better demand on
the whole for manufactured products.
The wheat market has lost this
week the cent it gained last week,
receipts being larger and the Allan
tic exports are also larger, $40, :
III bushels, against 7O3,O26 last
year, but these are of small ac-
count compared with the great visible
supply. Foreign reports this week
have been rather more promising,
though the fact remains that the
worlds crop outside the United
States is probably the largest ever
grown. Corn has declined half
cent, receipts having much increased.

The Jurist VIII Never Return to the
Bench-successOrshlp Gossip.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-The latest
intelligence from Justice Jackson of
the United States supreme court, who
lies i'll at Thomasville, Ca, is that his
return to the bench at any time is
not to be expected. His friends en-
tertained hopes that winters rest in
the Southern climate might restore
his health so far as to permit of
intermittent service, but his days of
usefulness appear definitely to have
ended. Not much hope can reason
ably be entertained of one stricken
with consumption at so advanced an
age.
Gossip regards the prospective vac
ancy as assured. Mr.. Wilson's name
has always been suggested. Again
it is said that Justice Jackson, realiz-
ing the impossibility of recovery, will
presently resign, and that Mr..
Carlisle will go on the bench and will
give Wilson the treasury. For all
the rumors there is no present dis
closed basis OF fact.
