He Sees Nothing in the Future for the
Indian.
OMAHA, Oct. 10. "The Minnesota
Indians will see that they have made a
great mistake. in going on the war;
path" says Geronimo. the famous
Apache chief, who is one of the In
dians now in camp at the Indian con-
gress.
II have never been in Minnesota,
but hear that up there and for hund-
reds of miles beyond the white men
are as many as the blades of grass.
If that is so what can few poor In
diaus do:in fight? They are making
a great mistake and are fools. For
years fought the white men, thinking
that with my few braves could kill
them all, and that we would again
have the land that our Great Father
gave US and which he covered with
game. II thought that.the Great Spirit
would be with us, and that after we.
had killed the white men, the buffalo,
deer and antelope would come back.
AfterI fought and lost, and after I
travelled over the country in which the
white man lives and saw his cities and
the work he had done, my heart was
ready to burst. 1 knew that the race
of Indians was DONE"
Asked what he thought would event
ually become of the Indians, Geronimo
hesitated and pointed to the west and
said:
''The sun rises and shines for awhile,
and then it goes down, sinking out of
sight, and it islost. So it win be with
the Indians '-*e-i

TREATS THE
MATTER LIGHTLY
Secretary .Alger Makes Very
Little ExpIa nation.

NEW YORK, Oct. pa dispatch to
the Herald from Washington says:
Secretary Alger has sent an answer to
the war investigating committee,
which, in the words of one of the COM
missioners, "does not answer"
I'm the first place. said this COM
missioner. I'VE asked who had been in
fuential in selecting the camp sites.
The only answer vouchsafed is that
General Lee selected the camp at
Jacksonville. I do not think any
other camp is mentioned. But this
OMISSION will, no doubt, be remedied
in the supplemental report for which
we will call on the secretary"
Secretary Alger's report includes
5000 words, and in addition to the
Jacksonville camp matter, covers only
these points: The selection of Tampa
as point of embarkation:' Rear Ad-
miral Sampson's dispatch, the cause of
fastening troops to Santiago; Com
modore Remey's dispatch, the cause of
subsequent delay of the troops. Dis
cussion of these topics exhausts the
report. No attempt seems to have
been made to explain the causes of the
hardships suffered by the soldiers in
Tampa. The matter is brushed aside
with apparent contemptin the relation !
that Tampa was considered good |
and the most convenient:l
point of EN- barkation.
Secretary Alger will be asked for a
fuller answer.

THE NEXT CONGRESS
Republican Majority in The
House Will be Small.

WASHINGTON, Oct 9.-The Wash.
ington Post will present tomorrow, in
series of dispatches from correspond
ents in every state of the Union, ex-
cept Maine, Vermont and Oregon,
where congressional elections haye al
ready been held, view of the political
situation with special reference to the
complexion of the next house ofrepre-
sentatives. In summarizing its dis
patches, the Post says: -. -
"While democratic gains are out
lined in many states, the figures given
by the correspondents of the Post do
not yet make it positive that the re-
publicans will lose control of the house.
There is at present in the house of re-
representatives. republican majority of
46 over all parties combined, and this
majority will be difficult to completely
overcome. There is no doubt that it
will be reduced to a very small number
but the present indications do not
point to it's entire disappearance.
''The estimates made by the Posts
show that 166 districts
in the United States will certainly be
republican in the approaching election
unless the unexpected happens, and
l3 additional districts will give the re-
publicans majority of the house.
