Provision for this office | was made in the last District appropriation act | “for the purpose of securing a more equitable | J] | snd efficient expenditure of the several sums appropriated for charities.” The law expressly provides that the superin- tendent shail be “‘some thoroughly experienced and otherwise suitable person not a resident of the District of Columbia.” His dutics, as de- fined by law, are as follows: “To formulate for the pur of the expenditures for charities | in utid District such a system oF plan of organ ized charities for said District as will by mea: of consolidation, combination or other direc- | tion, in his judgment, best secure the objects contemplated by the several institutions and associations for which such appropriations are made, and for the other charitable work of the | District, with the least interference each with | the other, or misapplication of effort or expenditure, and without cation of | charilable | work | or ture, and all such appropriations shall pended for the purposes, indicated, ander the General direction of mid superintendent and in conformity, as near as may be, with such system or plan, subject to the approval of | the board of ‘Commissioners of the ) Distriet | of Columbia.

Said superintendent shall be entitled to a compensation at the rate of £3,000 a year.” WHAT SECRETARY HALFORD SAID. Private Secretary Halford said to a Star re- porter last evening talking about the appoint- ment of Mr. Warner as superintendent of char- ities for the District, that everything pointed to the conclusion that this was one of the | bestappointments ever made. Continuing, he remarked: “All I know about Mr. Warne? is | that he was the second choice of the people who have taken a deep interest in charity. I cannot say who was the firstone. You may | say he was one of those very highly recom-| mended by the folks who have spent their time | and money in this matter. He was a professor | of sociology at John Hopkins for a time, and | then he went out to Nebraska, where he has | been looking after some educational interests | for about a year. He has made this matter of i judy and has devoted his energies tothe solution of several of the more import- # problems in theline of social seience. From all appearances it seems as though he is un- ‘usually well qualified for the position to which he hay been appointed, and I have no doubt | that he will accept an bend himself to the work in most satisfactory way.” A SKETCH OF DR.

HOW THE MONEYS HAVE BEEN PAID. When the District appropriation bill for the current fiscal year became available there was a clamor on the part of the charitable institu- tions which received their support from Con- grew for funds. The Commissioners simply approve the checks and the money is collected at the treasury. The Commissioners hesitated for « long while before ing any checks on account of the delay in the appointment by the President of a superintendent of charities, whose duty it was. Matters became desperats ‘as time rolled by, as the President failed to ap- | ta man to fill the position, and Auditor ty, acting under orders from’ the Commis- sioners, talked the matter over with the first controller. At last an agreement was made whereby the Commissioners were to approve the vouchers and the controller would advance the money. In this manner the Commission- ers got out of a predicament and the charitable institutions were kept up. wai FIGHT ON A CAR FOR A SWEETHEART.

SOW THE BERY RATIONS HAVE BEEN CUT DOWN BY THE ACTION OF CONGRESS AND THE CLI- dane sphere who understands the Sioux Indian that man is Dr. V. T. MeGillicuddy. A good many people are not admirers of Dr. MeGilli- euddy, but the Inck of admiration is probably reciprocal. The doctor is pretty well known in the northwest, and especially is be known to the people of South Dakota and northwest- ern Nebraska. From 1876 to 1879 he was a sur- geon in the United States army, those three years being spent on the frontier, and from 1879 to 1886 he was Indian agent at Pine Ridge. Every phase of this trouble has been as an open book to him, and it was only natural I should look to him for information as to the causes which brought about bloodshed and distrust and an enormous expenditure of public funds. “No oue cause is responsible,” said he. “The situation was brought about by a combination of causes. It has been our experience that i we have these disturbances in all The last time was in 1876 when Custer and his command were massacred. The Indian children of that time are now of & fighting age. They necossarily have never met the whiter in battle, but, sitt that to emulate the bloody doings of their fathers. They do not know the power of the white man; their fathers do, but they never mention a little matter like that. Sitting around the camp fire at night how when they were the old men tell young men they were never satisfied to haunt their lodges; they went on the warpath und killed white men and wore scalps such as are never captured in these degenerate days. The old brave stops and a withered squaw gets up and sings of a boy she had when she was young. How brave was ho, how be fought the white man and gained great renown and how hedied— a. warrior without peer; there were no such boys now. ‘These stories are probably but uot necessarily true. ‘The ancient Indian is just like the old white men we have met, who talk of the time when they were boys: when they | were in the habit of sawing a cord of woud be- fore breakfast and thought nothing of 1t. TUE TREATY TROUBLES. “Another and a very serious trouble is the not only broken but misunderstood treaties. I question very much if the Indians ever under- stood any of their treaties. In olden times the confederated bands of Sioux, Cheyennes and Arapahoes controlled or_r over a region of country extending from the Yellowstone river on the north to the Arkanens river on the south and from the Missouri river on the east | tothe Rocky mountains on. the west. This | enormous territory has cage bed taken | away from them by treaties and | game has disappeared. The situation of the | red man is most discouraging. And now of | these treaties. Let it be understood that a large | signed them nor to them; hence these Indians—a‘ large minority—feel that they have been unjustly deprived of these lands. ‘This is especially true of the treaty or agreement of 1876, by which they lost the Black Hills—the garden spot of their reservation—and the ment of 1889, by | which they gave up or lost one-half of what | y ga was then their remaining reserve; this half amounting to 16,000 square miles. That latter agreement was signed bya bare majority, and no other man in the world could have secured a sufiic George Crook. Now you-will note that the men who led in this present trouble—Big Foot, Sitting Bull and a number of Brules and Ogallalas—were opposed to the treaty. These Indians formed what is known at the various agencies as the non-progressive element; a strong and vicious faction. ‘THE BEEF QUESTION. “‘Acting as fuel to the fire which these agree- ment disagreements started has been a very much to be deprecated diminution of rations, noticeably in the beef. the flour and the corn, but especially so as to the beef. It must be un- derstood that the Sioux are a carnivorous ple and they can stand the cutting down of any other ration than that of beef. The beef ration at Pine Ridge has been cut down to less than two-tifths of the treaty allowance and the qual- ity of the article has been poor. Let me ex- plain. | When I was appointed agent in 1879 the government insisted, on account of the favor- able reduction it cond from beef con- tractors, that I should receive in the fall of the year—in November—what was known as a win- ter supply of beef: this to last until the follow- ing spring. ‘The cattle were to be kept as an agency herd, the herd to be issued from every ten days, the contractors claiming that the gov- ernment would have better facilities for caring for beef on the reservation than they possibly could have. This scheme I strongly opposed, and I only agreed to it. when it was thoroughly understood that the cattle should be what is known as wintered beeves; in other words, beeves that have been at least one winter on the northernscattle ranges—north of the thirty- seventh parallel. ‘That barred out all beef trom Kaneas, Yoana, Indian territory and southern Colorado. It must be understood that beef ia only raised to quite a limited extent on north- ern ranges, the beeves being driven through from Texas when they are yearlings and turned loose on our higher latitudes to grow up fatten. Here they attain a greater weight than kept on the southern ranges. It is but natural that there should be « heavy loss during the first winter on beet brought from the warm south to the chilly north, not only by death, but through » heavy shrinkage in the weight of surviving animals. Northern stock- men never think of butchering or disposing of these cattle in winter, because they are then little more than skin and bone. It was togaard against this lows by shrinkage and death that I established this wintering line; in succeeding winters the animals become acclimated and the loss is naturally much reduced. The contract also required that the beeves #houid be not less than three nor more than six years old; an ar- rangement which virtually gave u of double-wintered beeves. Now, these precautions our loss was generally 5 or 6 per cent, and the shrinkage in weight was such that an animal weighing 1,000 pounds in Ov- tober would in the Marek following be reduced to from 850 to 900 pounds. ‘This loss in weight is on the edible portion of the beef; the horns, hoofs, hides and bones do not shrink. Hence 4 1,000-pound animal that in October would net 500 pounds will not in March net more than 350 pounds. Ina severe winter the loss by shrink- would still. ‘The | age be greater has to wand, the shrinkage, because the animal is issned at the receiving weight. SUIFTING THE LIXE, “When I was removed from the service in 1886 for insubordination,” continued the doc- tor, “this wintering line was immediately shifted south from the thirty-eventh to the thirty-fourth |—a line which passes be- pad nil eipina cer of et eens wiping out cS ne. ‘Vhat let in rough ‘Texas the southern beeves for winter delivery and red the Indian the trouble of chewing a good deal of beef he bay ise have had.

It was simply pitched upon by the Indian agitators as being the most weakly man- aged of all the Sioux agencies and hence the most desirable place for trouble. Had there been proper management and discipline main- tuined ut this agency, as in former years, there would not today be any necessity for the pres- ence of # soldier. What I have said of the In- dian agents will apply to the Indian service generally. One of tho weakest branches of that servicé—and a branch that should be the strongest—is the inspector's the five men in this corps but one ever had a day's perience in the Indian service prior to his tment as inspector. Awa rule, is in other services are selected because supposed to know something of that which are to inspect. To select men for any Teason makes a farce of business, and therein is the weakness of the Indian service.” SUGGESTED IMPLOVEMENTS. “Can you not, out of your long experience,” Tasked, “suggest something which you think would materially imvrove the practical work- ings of the Indian bureau?” “I can,” replied the doctor, “but it is too practical to be adopted. The Indian service should be a graded service. To start with— select men for agents who show some ndapta- bility or fitness for the positions. There is a t difference between the words adapta- ility and ability. If a man proves, after trial, he is adapted for the position he should be retained in office during his good behavior. ‘Then appoint the inspector from among the senior Indian agents, and when a commis- sioner of Indian affaire is necded take the senior inspector You will then have a service made up of accumulated experienee—-based on the same principle that makes up the army and navy-—instead cf the present lack of system, overburacned with fine-spun theories “and rose-colored _—_reports j that are almost totally lacking in practical knowledge. ‘The people of the United States and the Indians have right to demand. this, Tsay the Indians because these various em- ployes and appointees are paid out of money that belongs to the Indians; a part payment for | lands and properties we have pure! d from them under solemn treaties and agreements.

One of the very muterial causes of this trouble has jbeen due entirely to some of the agency | farmers, particularly at Pine Ridge and Rose- bud, who, to show the valuable services they | were rendering, reported a large umount of produce raised by these Indians. Practically nothing has been raised during the past sea- son, but the bureau, figuring on’ these alleged crops, calculated that the reduced rations would be sutticient. The bureau thus vindicated the reports of the farmers and starved the In- bd Ak yy are they | THE GHOST DANCE. “What had the ghost dance to do with this outbreak?” “That dance was only a side issuc. Had these people been well fed the ghost dance would never have been heard of. The dance and its ceremonies was like the voice of a feast to a starving man. All the prayer in the dance was for food tor themselves; for their women and their children: they cried for help from above, all other help having failed. Haven't they a right to pray’ Does this great Christian nation attempt to say that the poor Indian—crushed and starving—shall not in his own way put up & petition to his Great Spirit? ‘Too much at- tention was paid to the ghost dance; too little attention was given the Indians.” “Do you believe that the presence of soldiers was necessry at Pine Ridge?” “The calling in of the military was a great blunder. It was a challe thas always been #0 regarded by the Indians. My experi- ence is that there are always enough progres- sive Indians to uphold law and put down re- bellion. A man does not have to be an Indian agent unless he wants to be, but when he does accept the position he accepts with it certain responsibilities, and with those responsibilities goes nuthority.’ Having been given this an- thority it is his duty to exhaust every resource within his reach to uphold civil authority, even going so far as to risk the lives of himself and his policemen before he calls for military inter- ference. No white citizen is more jealous of his civil rights than is the Indian, and particu- larly do the Indians resent the coming of troops into their country. ‘They call their agent “father,” they naturally lean upon him and ex- pect him by his personal influence and author- ity to control matters, hence an Indian agent suould be endowed with courage, tact and ad- ministrative and executive ability.” “What should be done to keep the peace in future “As soon as things have quieted down the Indian bureau should appoint as agent some thoroughly practical man, experienced in In- dian affairs, who will command the respect of settlers and Indians alike. If under our present system it is impowsible to appoint sucht u man hen the safety of the frontier demands that army officers shall be placed in charge.

The Evacuation of Pine Ridge—The Delega- tion Coming Here. The movement of troops from Pine Ridge ageney, described in the special to Tax Stan yesterday, caused some consternation among the Indians, who evidently thought that their prophecy that they were all to be massacred was about to be realized. ‘They threw outa line of pickets about their village, and as the troopers swept past over the dusty trail the redakins began to jeer them. ‘There was a big beef issue for the Ogallalas yesterday, 215 steers being turned loose before their rifles.

Five weeks ago a penniless woman in Detroit applied to Dr. H. O. Walker, suffering from consumption in an advanced stage. She hada high fever, rapid pulse and suffered from night sweats. The physician senther at once to Harper Hospital and there she was treated under the new Shurly and Gibbes method. She inhaled chlorine gas and received injections of the iodine solution, which proved more suita- ble in her case than the chloride of gold. Soon the tubercle bacilli which had previ- ously been noticed in profusion in the sputum began to disappear. This was rapidly followed by cessation of the expectoration iteelf and a ral improvement in the patient's health By degrees her strength returned, until she was able to get out of bed, and now the woman, the doctors sa may be considered cured. The injured lungs have been puritied and are now ing. All that remains is to supply the enormous waste of strength which t lace during her illness and build up the enfeebled constitution. The patient shows that this result is likely to follow, for she is now employing her tim the hospital in assisting the nurses and is quite Vigorous enough to doo, Thero are soveral other casee at Harper Hospital which Dr. Shurly is treating, in some of which the effects of his cures are, he says, wonderful.
