STOCKS QUIET AND FIRM. THE INDIANS GIVE UP. They Take Of Their War Paint and End the Outbreak. ‘From the Evening Star's Staff Correspondent. Prise kipor Acexcy, 8.D., Jan. 15.—The Sioux outbreak of 1890-91 is over. There may | be and probably will be trouble with afew small detached bands of hostiles, but the great majority of those who revolted against the au- thority of the United States government have removed their war paint and are camped near the friendly Indians to the southwest of agency, just across White Clay creek. ‘THE INDIANS COME IX. Yesterday Gen. Miles held « final council with hostile Brules and Ogallala chiefs, and | the results of the conference became apparent this morning. Shortly after daybreak a mist obscured the hostile camp so that no one at the agency could see what was being done in the valley, but shortly after 8 o'clock there emerged from the mist the advance guard of the biggest aggregation of warlike Indians this country is ever likely to see. Some of the vanquished were cheerful. There ‘was a prospect of sufticient food, but the large portion had a morose and vicious appearance. ‘They had unwillingly surrendered to superior force and therefore retained their right to be as savage as was possible in the face of an army | that was large enough and willing enough to wipe them ont of existence. CHIRYS WILL DO THE DISARMING. There will be no repetition of the Wounded Knee afiair. Instead of giving the troops the task of disarming the warriors the work will be done by the chiefs. Contact with the soldiers today or within several days will certainly precipitate a fight, so Gen. Miles insists that each chief bring the | arms of his band. The guns are being loaded into wagons in the hostile camp and will be turned over at division headquarters some time today. The larger portion of the troops remain here for some tine commanded by Gen. Brooke, but the probabilities are that several detachments will on Monday or Tuesday return to their posts. Gen. Miles will leave at the earliest possible moment, very likely Sunday. How the Brules will act when he has gone is a serious problem. G. H.

Among them was fhe novel one that the Indians demanded the abo- lition of the Rosebud agency, the establishment of one more general, and the selection of Pine Ridge as such an agency. ‘The reason they ad- vanced for this radical move was the fact that the Indians were continually moving from one agency to the other, contrasting the methods of each,and longing for the comforts of Pine Ridge as compared with the many disadvantageswhich they claimed to have experienced at Rosebud. ‘This proposition Eagle Pipe, who, by the way, isone of the most influential of Rosebud ot Brnle chiefs, said Gen.

The ultra-silver men are determined to ge the matter before the House and if there is much delay on the part of the committee in reporting on the bill their impatience will be manifested in the most vigorous manner they can contrive. It is believed, however, that the committee will report on the bill before long. They will probably hold it a reasonable time and then throw the bill into the House and let the matter be fought out. ‘The New Japanese Minister.

Mr. Manderson spoke in opposition to the House proposition and supported the Senate amendment. He sgid he thonght that the men employed in the government printing office no reason to complain of the rate of compensation. He said that Without taking into consideration | the fact that they got thirty days’ leave of absence cach year with pay, their compen- sation was larger than that received outside of the government printing office. If it were so that these employes were so pporly paid and so badly treated how was it, he asked, that every Senator was besieged with applications from people who wanted to quit private work and get work in the government printing of- fice. “He quoted statistics to show, as he claimed, that $1.20 more per work and 10 cents more per ems was paid by the gov- ernment than the highest pay outside. He said also that it was complained that the House bill discriminated in favor of certain employes and others in the office. The bill, he said, was to favor but 962 of the nearly three thousand employes. He referred to the proposition as one to make donations to these compositors, pressmen, binders, &c. He thought they had ‘no claim upon the govern- ment for such special favors; that there was no reason why they should be paid so much for similar work elsewhere. He read a letter from the public printer which was opposed to the bill except in the one point that it made a distinction between night and day work, distinction already made. Mr. Manderson said it was unpleanant to have to oppose what these men—who lived by their labor—asked, but he felt it to be a daty to do so. He hoped that the Senate amendment ‘would be adopted. ‘MR. CULLOM FAVORS THE INCREASE. Senator Cullom favored the bill. He said these employes, baving no certain tenure of office, coming here to work perhaps for a short while, should be shown some consideration over those 'who were employed with reasonable as- éurance of permaneney. He said that men went home to vote, losing time thereby. They bad a right’ to seck employ- ment here and no one could gainsay it. Sometimes they found that the work they was not so desirable as they had thought. What they asked was a restoration of old rates, from which there bad been a reduction without rea- son.
