I uude for the disposition of troops which
seems intuitive with Gen. Miles. In the
same Nez Perces campaign, l recol-
lect his promptness of action when he
came up with the Nez Perces and found
them entrenched. The country was
new to Gen. Miles. He had never been
there before. But, glancing over the
country, using his field glass, and ask
ing a few questions of the guides, he
began Immediately the disposition of
his troops, and moved them with such
precision and celebrity that Chief Jo-
seph was outwitted and outgeneraled
with such dazzling quicllness that he
uttered the remark above quoted.
Coming from a man of the undoubted
ability of Joseph, have always re-
garded that remark as one of the great
est compliments that has ever been paid
to Gen. Miles as an Indian fighter.
Grover Cleveland was president
when Gen. Schotield retired. Do you
know that there are no two men in this
republic who ought to have greater adj
miration for each other than EXPIRES
iuent Cleveland and Gen. Miles. Their
lives have been parallel in civil and
military life.
"While Grover Cleveland was poor
boy, sweeping the office for Lawyer
Bowers, in Buffalo, Nelson A. Miles was
poor boy clerking in store in Boston.
Grover Cleveland possessed exceptional
ability and sturdy qualities, and Law
yer Bowers took him into his home and
into his Office and encouraged his early
struggles. Using military terms, 1 may
say that Grover Cleveland passed
through all grades of promotion in civil
life, just as Gen. Miles has passed
through all the grades of promotion in
military life. Just as the poor boy in
Buffalo was entering upon the practice
of the law, the poor boy in Boston was
entering upon the military profession.
Strangers to each other, they were
struggling along the pathway of life;
and their lives were running in paral-
lels, each of them achieving a distinc-
ton and success by sheer native ability
and merit. Each of them possessed the
genius of labor, and they toiled and
plodded along, each honestly doing his
best in his own sphere, and then their
lives converged and they came together
in the national capital. The poor boy
of Buffalo was chief executive, and the
poor boy of Boston became commander
OF the army" SMITH D. FRY.

is A GREAT SOLDIER.
Maj. Gen. Miles, Commanding the
Armies of the United States.
lie Is Respected by Regular as Well
as Volunteer TrOODS-HIs Mar
VelOus Success as an In
dian Fighter.
[speeIal WashIngton Letter. !

Mai. Gen. Nielsen A. Miles, command
ing the armies Of the United States, is
very popular with all soldiers who
have served with him. The regular as
well as the volunteer soldiers admire
and respect him. Some things concern
ing his military career were obtained
to-day in casual conversation.
IL served under Gen. Miles at one
time" said an army officer on duty in
the war department, and have great
respect and admiration for him. /
think that you may say that all the Off
GERS and men who have ever been on
duty with Gen. Miles respect and adj
mire him forhis manly qualities, superb
courage, military genius and perfect
integrity.
"One thing you may emphasize, and
that is the fact that all young West
Pointers who have served with Miles
love him and swear by him. He has
had the loyal and earnest support as
well as the affection OF the young Off
GERS who have been so fortunate as to
see actual campaigning with Miles
as their commander. His strongest
friends in the army to-day are
West Pointers. The old prejudice
against volunteer officers is fast dying
out. 1t is dead, SO far as Gen. Miles is
concerned. l am West Pointer my
self, and tell you not even Napoleon
had the confidence and admiration of
his soldiers more than Gen. Miles has
had from his officers and men, and L
am one of them who would cheerfully
obey any order coming from him, no
matter what peril might be in the inn
mediate future for me.
"Do you know that Gen. Miles never
lost a battle in his life, either in the
civil war, or during his Indian cam
paigns? When we were on the from
tier, with Indians outnumbering us ten
to one, it was necessary to send out
small attachments to attract large hos
tile bands. On such occasions officers
Phillipsburg herald. [volume] (Phillipsburg, Kan.) 1882-1905, 1898-05-19

and men asked but one question, and
that was: will Gen. Miles lead us?'
And when they were informed that
Miles would be with us, there was no
hesitation, no doubt, no questioning,
but every man felt assured that vic
tory would result, and we were never
disappointed. Our commander chal-
lenged admiration for his activity and
gallant leadership. He always led us
in every fight. He never sought to shield
himself. He is absolutely without fear
of anything mortal. In the Nez Perces
campaign officers begged him not to
expose himself, because there was
general dread that all might be massa-
cred if he should fall.
Seen Miles always dressed in a pic
turesque style when on the frontier. He
wore broad sombrero, blue shirt, red
tie, buckskin coat and trousers, fringed,
with a belt around his waist in which
were pistols and large knife. He was
as well equipped for personal struggle
and danger as Buffalo Bill or any other
ranger He is one of the bravest of the
brave, and l have seen him under fire
with his officers and men; always cool,
always aggressive, and ready for every
emergency.
Just after the Custer massacre Gen.
Miles took 225 men and went after Sit
ting Bull and Crazy Horse, who, with
5000 bucks, had settled down for the
winter. That was daring undertake
ing, but. Gen. Miles captured those In
dams who at that time regarded them
selves invincible.
GAS an illustration of his carefulness
and keenness in dealing with the Indi-
ans, you might mention the peace talk
which he had with Sitting Bull at Cedar
creek. The willy and dangerous Sioux
leader sent a flag of truce for the pur-
pose of arranging terms of capitula-
ton. Gen. Miles and Sitting Bull were
to meet midway between the lines of
Sioux and the Fifth infantry, and have
a nice quiet little peace talk Accord
ing to the plans they met and held a
conference. Within a few moments d
big Sioux buck sauntered out toward
the general and chief, and came very
close to them. At the same time, by
previous order issued by Gen. Miles,
one of the infantrymen sauntered out,
and also approached the parleying com
manders. Then another Indian quietly
sauntered forth, and at the same time
one of the infantrymen initiated him.

WILD TIME IN THE coRTEs.
sRlmerOn, Republican Leader, Said His
Party WIS Ready to Form New
Government.

MADRID, May II. The chamber
flower house, had a prolonged sitting
yesterday evening, with a view Of
passing the current politicnl measures
giving the government authority TO
procure funds to continue the war;
Senior Salmeron, the republican
leader, alluded to the rumors of
the queen regents abdication
and declared that the republic
ans we're ready to form government
forthwith. His remarks evoked a
storm of protests, and Senior Salmeron
was unable to proceed for fully ten
minutes. Monarchists and republic
ans shrieked at each other and banded
threats The presidents voice was
completely drowned.
The government intends to insist
that the cortes sit continuously until
the war measures are adopted. The
minister of finance, Senior PUG
cerver, declares that until the cred
its are voted it is impossible to
meet the demand for ammuni-
ton and provisions for Cuba,
Porto Rico, the Balearic islands and
the Canary islands, or to obtain the
necessary stocks of coal. Capt.
Gen. Blanco has cabled an urgent
request for considerable supplies Of
provisions which the government AN
not dispatch until the cortes has voted
the war measures.

WANT ONLY SOUND MEN.
Some Instances Been Accepted by the
War Department Under Protest.

WASHINGTON, May 11.-War depart
ment officials authorized the statement
that no orders have been issued to
mastering officers directing that they
accept all regimental officers of volun.
teer troops appointed by governors OF
states regardless of physical disabili.
ties. In few cases, where governors
were particularly anxious to com.
sion certain officers, the mus
tering officers have been in.
structed to accept the services
of the officers; but in each case a spe.
cial dispensation has been required,
and special notation of the disabil-
ity has been made for the benefit OF
the government. Hereafter it will be
difficult for the officers so accepted
to secure a pension, as they will have
to show clearly that the disability for
which the pension may be asked was
due to their service in the present war.
Phillipsburg herald. [volume] (Phillipsburg, Kan.) 1882-1905, 1898-05-19

This continued until there were six
Sioux bucks and six infantrymen sur
rounding Gen. Miles and Sitting Bull.
Gen. Miles then said; You are a bad
Indian. All OF your bucks here are
armed. They have weapons under their
blankets. You intended to kill me here
in cold blood. If any one of your men
pulls trigger one of my men will kill
you right in your tracks The old
chief had no desire to go suddenly to
the happy hunting grounds, and warned
his men to return to their places. One
by one they retired, and one by one
the infantrymen returned TO their
ranks.
Gen. Miles then said: Now, will
give you five minutes to surrender. IL
you do not do so | will open fire on
your band and annihllate you Sitting
Bull turned away, saying: i have
enough men here, as you see, to wipe
out your entire army Gen. Miles re-
peatcd the remark, that in five minutes
he would open fire unless the band SUR
rendered, Sitting Bull went back to
his camp, delayed beyond the allotted
time, and Gen. Miles promptly ordered
his troops forward. The soldiers Of the
Fifth infantry understood their work,
and followed their commander. The
battle was not prolonged one, for
Sitting Bull was defeated and SUR
rendered.
"Gen. Miles is hard rider. He Is an
athlete. He is tall, erect, soldierly in
appearance, a splendid horseman and
perfect marksman either with rifle
or a revolver. He rides bicycle and
rides it well. He is a swimmer, boxer
and all around emergency man, no mat
ter where he may be placed. Buffalo
Bill says there never was such II per-
fectly equipped man for Indian fighting
in the entire army,
"The Nez Perces chief, Joseph, who
was one of the greatest of Indian lead
ers, had been pursued by several Wig
orous fighters, with good commands,
and had eluded all of them. When Gen.
Miles, however followed him and sur
rounded him, and when the old chief
realized that he had been out-generaled
in his own style of warfare, and in his
own country, he expressed amazement
and said: Who is this new chief that
has outwitted me? | know it must be
a new chief, for the others are chill
dren.'
by the way, do not believe that
any general could learn from books, or
under any instruction procure, the apti-
