FIGHTING THE SIOUX.
GEN. SHERMAN ON THE SITUATION.
A TIMELY AND IMTEBKwTIMS) VALK WITH
TUB HOUSE MILITABT COMMITTEE
PRESENT CONDITION AND NEEDS . ,
Of TUB ABUT STRENOTB
Of TEBBT'B roBOBU '
Wasdinoton, Aagust 8. Gen. Sbor-
man and the Secretary of War were In
attendance this morning; before the
House committee on military affair in
reference to the Senate bill now before
that committee lor the Increase of the
cavalry regiments for operations against
the Sioux Indians. General Sherman,
being asked to giro his opinion on tho
subject, said:
I think It will be very prudent to
provide now, in advance, for at least
2,500 men, and I cannot conceive of a
mora economical or better method of
doing it than the one proposed by the
Senate, which is simply to increase the
number of private soldier to that ex.
tent. By this plan we can reinforce
the regiments in tbe Bold, so that each
company ot cavalry will consist ot 100
men. An increase oi 2,500 men will
enable as to do that, and the ostimates
prepared and sent to the Senate will
be amply sufficient for tbe purpose.
TbeChairman. Uaveyonanydoubt
as to the ability ot our army now ID
front of tbe Sioux to whip tbem ? Gen
eral Sherman. I have not a particle
ot doubt but that, if tbe Indians will
stick togotbor, Crook alone eon whip
them, or Terry alone can whip them.
Jointly, there. Is no doubt of it. But
the Indians may scatter, and propably
will scattor, and tho mountainous char
acter of tho country will facilitate their
concealingtbcniselves. They will divide
up into small parties, and that will
probably necossitatcan increase of fores
over thnt which would be n can nary to
whip tbem in tho aggregate. If the
Indiana scatter, then we will have to
divido up into dotachmenls, and each
detachment is liable to encounter tho'
whole of these Indians if they should
assemble again.
Mr. HurlbuL . What is your view in
regard to tbe material ont of which
this increase of force should be obtained?
A. We have got to trust, in a way, to
luck for that. The pay of soldiers Is
very small compared with that paid
for labor, and therefore, as a matter of
course, we have got to take tbe best
material we can get for that pay, but
those who are in charge of the field
operations against tbe Bloux, Terry,
Crook, Sheridan and others, are will
ing to riak that branch of ths proposi
tions They are all in favor of increas
ing the strength, ol 4 the companies
rethor than of resorting to a call for
volunteers. ' -;
Mr. McDonald. Do yon think that
recruits can be got in time? A. Yes ;
I think the rocraits will be collected
pretty rapidly now. , i . , , ; .
Tbe Chairman. Under a law passed
by this Congress it is provided that all
cavalry regiments may be recruited to
one hundred men for each company,
and it is tnrther provided that this
shall not incrcaso the total aggregate
of .the army to more than 25,000 en
listed men. General Sheridan, by his
letter appears to understand that this
increase applies to only regiments on
the Texas frontier? A. You will re-
colloct that . was the first proposition
suggested by a member from Texas,
Gonerol Mills. 1 think that propoal
tion obtained a good deal ol publicity,
and General Sheridan was auder the
impression that the bill as passed by
Congress was passed or. that basis.
He was in error there. , The bill as
passod enables ns to put a hundred
men into each company of all the ton
cavalry roigmenU, bat in trying to do
that we would have to deplete the in
fantry companies in all parts of the
United States so low a' to almost
make thorn Valueless.' When you got
a company below 80 or 40 men it oeases
almost to be a military organisation
The officers lose interest in their pro
fession, and the consequence ia that if
you put the whole 12,000 men into ten
cavalry reigmonts, the infantry regi
ments and the artillery regiments
would be probably below 25 men to
the company. Every gentleman who
has served in any army must know
that that takes the life out of any mil
itary orgaiaation. 1 would call tho
attention of the committee to another
branch of tho proposition. ' It is very
easy to take 25,000 mon and divide
them np into ten regiments of cavalry,
five of artillery and twenty of infantry
in a very fair proportion, but we have
other detachments what we call non
combatants, unavailable men. You all
know tbat in a battle you can only
bring about two-thirds of the best or
ganisation to the front, and 1 would
challenge any member of the commit
tee to say that he could take 10,000
men and bring 6,000 into line of battle.
We have 852 mon nnassigned to any
regimont or organisation, engaged in
the recruiting service.. That may be
In excess of propriety, but it sosms to
be the result of experience, and I cer
tainly have striven by all means in my
powor to reduce that number. Thon
we have 299 men charged as general
service men, men who are employed
at the War Department, at tbe bead-
quarters of the army and in the differ
ent military divisions and departments,
who are, in loot, dorks and nothing
elso. Xbon ths Ordnance Department,
bicb never sonds a man Into th field,
as a matter of course, ho 355 enrolled
and charged against this aggregate
25,000 mon. Thon wa have 230 mon
at West Point to aid the young mon
there in their Instructions, to take ear
of their horses, do police work, etc.
Ever sine the Revolutionary war w
bav always kept from 100 to 10 mm
at West Point, therefor there are 230
mon, a number which is not regarded
by the authorities as excessive. If I
could I would roduc it somewhat
Thon we have 226 hospital stewards ;
yna all know what they mean, They
do not take musket. Theawehave
112 ordnance sergeants, scattered
along th seaboard mostly ; of course
they cannot be brought Into th field
In th Indian or any other war. Then
w bar 151 commissary sergeants, 66
men as a prison guard for Fort Leaven
worth, and 2T3 recruits, who are avail
able and will bo sont forward. This
make nearly 8,000 oat of our 25,000.
To ruiaindor has not only to engage
In Indian wars, hut bos to take care of!
an Immense amount of property, proba
bly hundreds of millions of dollars
worth, all of which would be oxposcu
to plunder and, all the accidents of
common property wer not these mon
stationed as tbey aro. ' Indeed, our flvo
artillery regimeuta are moatly en
gaged In guarding publio property,
but recently, under tbe prossure, we
have taken nearly ono-half of tbem,
leaving tbe rest to take care of the
guns, magaxinos and property of tbe
most valuable kind oo which Congress
bos expended hundreds of millions of
dollars, and which, if not watched,
would run to decay or be carried off,
probably, by people around about. 1
can account for every man In tho
army.
Mr. Uurlbut Do you Includo in that
list tho Signal Corps? Answer. No.
sir. Tbey are not charged against tho
twenty-fir thousand. The number of
men in the army, aocoiding to our list
return, is 24,670. In trying to keop
within tbe twenty-five thousand we
have, as a matter of conrso, got to keep
well within tbe standard. In tho
meantime discharge are going on on
account of expiration of sorvice or of
sickness, deaths, etc, so that 1 doubt
whotber we have to-day 16,000 mon
who are, properly speaking, soldiers in
th line of battle. There is anolhor
consideration. Wo cannot send the
whole of our available forco Into tho
Indian country, becauso the Indians
occupy a central position, with tbe ref
erence to lour very Important lorn
Larios Montana, Dakota, Wyoming
and Nebraska. Those Sioux Indians
havo for years and years boon depre
dating upon these Territories. Tbon
tbo Pacifis Railroad poaa through
Wyoming and Nebraska, over which
we have Invited travel from all parts
of tbe civilised globe, and if any acci
dent were to happen to ono of tboir
train from Indian hostilities, and if
people were murdered in them, it would
bo a national di.grooe and shame.
Therefor we aro compelled whilo we
are engaged away up on tho l ellow
stone in fighting Sitting Bull and his
Indiand to guard against tho chances
of detachments striking eithor the
Paciflo Railroad or tho scattered settle
ments around about Tbon again we
have, through tbe civil branch ot the
government, to provide for friendly
Sioux amounting to about 36,000 peo
ple all told, ot whom probably 6,000
are warriors. Although these are
friendly and Christian Indians in one
sense, tbey are suspicions Indians in
another sense, and ws bav to watch
tbem to see that they do not go out
themselves to join and reinforce the
hostilo Indians, and tbat they do not
send them out provisions and stores,
and that snob as come back wounded
or who desire to shake bands, as they
term it, making peace again, shall be
arrested and punished by tho law of
the land. Therefore we bave to koop
B good many men along tbe Missouri
river. It was only yesterdsy that an
Indian agent away out in Montana
called for 200 men, whom we could not
give him because we did not have them'
We feared that the Nes-Perces, tbe
Bloods and the Blackfeet Indians would
break out and commence hostilities
against th northern and western bar
der of Montana, where they have no
soldiers at all, and whore we could not
got tbem without abandoning othor
country quite as valuable and quite as
much exposed.
Tbe Chairman. W 1th the authority
under tbe law as It now stands to fill
up tbe cavalry regiments, can you not,
If bocossary for defense against the
Bionx, take men from the infantry and
artillery, at different points' as It is
proposed to take tbem lrora the infant
ry to fill up the cavalry regiments of I
the Texas frontier? 'A. I don't kno
that we have proposed to that Wo
have proposed to send all tbe recruits
that we can get to those rogimonts on
the Texas frontier, the Eighth and
Tenth Cavalry, but wo bave not trans
ferred any from tbe artillery or infant
ry to those regiments, nor bave we
designed to do so. We Intend to fill
tbem up by recruits, just as wo pro
pose to do in this case. We can, and
probably will, overhaul our artillery
and infantry companies, and with tbe
consent oi tho mon may transfer some
to the cavalry j But a man transferred
to tbe cavalry without his oonsont
would be a dead weight and of no sort
of sorvice.
Mr. MscDougall. Is there any re
cruiting station in Toxas? A. At
every military post in tbe United States
there is a recruiting station, whore
some offiocr is authorized to enlist
We are very glad to enlist men right
on the spot
Mr. Reilly. As I understand tho
Bonate bill it provides an enlistment
for a term of three years. A. Tbe
War Department will nndertako to
discharge men the very moment that
hostilities cease. Tbe appropriation
bill is a sufficient limitation on the de
partment. General St Clair was de
feated on that very proposition. Ho
had six-months men and was forced to
go Into action, and was defeated ; and
so in tbo civil war wo wore defeated
by tbe term of volunteer expiring and
some of them lea the baltlo-fiold.
Mr. Terry. Would you not be likoly
to get a bettor classes' men if they had
the assurance that they would be dis
charged as soon at the emergency on
which thoy entered the service tormi
nated ? A. I think not ; I think we
will get good men who will whip Sit
ting bull, and tbat la good enough.
air. Reilly. Yon would enlist them
for three yeas ? A. Yes, and we would
reduce the army to 25,000 the moment
that hostilities oease.
Mr. Kerry. Would you not got a
better class of men in th Territories
if they had the assurance that after tbe
emergency passed tbey would be dis
charged? A. I have no objection to
the enlistment ot men for three years
or during th pending hostilities. Tbat
could be pat into the bill as a clause.
Mr. Tny. I van very well under
stand that a young man on th bordor
woald be willing to go in for th emer
gency. A. Oar experience I that
those men are not so good as they profess
to be, Tbey are a good deal better at
bragging than fighting.
Mr. Terry. : Would yo irot as soon
have a volunteer fore out thr In this
emergency a the kind oi men whom
yon can mint In th regular servicer
A, No, sir, 1 would not 1 would pro-
fur to havo tho regular troops, because
with tho old sergeant and about thirty
standard men In each company you
can engralt upon that company any
kind of mon, and In aix months tbo
new men are very good sold iors; but
In tho case ot volunlcors tbo officers
and non-commissioned oRlcors are pop-
ulur men, not men who have eoen ser
vice Thoy are mon who do not know
bow to cook tholr provisions or to pro
vide for themselves or their men. It
takes about a year to make a good in
fantry soldier and about throo years to
mako a good cavalry soldier, It you
take an organisation entiro. But if
you take a company of fifty men, wboro
there aro four sergeants, four corporals
and two good officers, and add fifty
new mon to it, in a short time tbo now
mon would, bo almost as good as tho
old ones, and tbey could hardly bo told
apart. They will learn Iroin each
other a grout deal bettor than thoy can
bo taught I would take a company
of filly old soldiers, such as we bavo
on tbe frontier (than whom thoro are
none butler, for those mon with Custer
wore just as good soldiers us men who
bad fought after four years of Instruc
tion in tho civil war,) and engraft upon
tbat company another fifty men, and
in six weeks a skilled officer would
take tbem into battle with confldvno,
while bo would be a little doubtful
with volunteers, unless we could get
seme of our old troops, and that 1 do
not think wo can do, as tbey are so
scattered.
Mr. Terry. Have there not been
quite a number of volunteer organisa
tions who bavo tendered their services
to ibe government? A. Yes, sir.
Mr. Terry. Would you not feel en
tire confidence in those men ? A. No.
sir. Most ot tbem aro from cities like
New York, Philadelphia, Pittsburg,
Memphis and New Orleans, and though
tbey are bravo mon and men of indi
vidual capacity, tbey would bo like
children in tbat Ycllowittono country.
Mr. Terry. In Indian warfare, is it
mora individual courage tbat Is effec
tual than mere military organisation ?
A. No, sir. Tho great trouble is (and
you will find it recorded back as far
as our government goes) that our In
dian failures havo resulted from ex
cessive confidence and from tho ina
bility of our mon to rally on the first
appearance of danger. Old soldiers
rally at onco to their company standard,
but now men scatter, each man seek
ing bis own individual safety, and you
soon lose your command. Tbo mon
may be bravo, but they bave not tbe
force of habit to rally thorn to their
company standard, and they will scat
ter about in tbe ravines, hollows and
woods and be killed in detail. We
had a regiment of Kansas troop in
1807 who were commanded by Gov.
Crawford, good frontiersmen, but somo
bow or other they never came up.
Custer led tbat column through tha
Kiowas and Choyennos, but tbe volun
teers did not come np. Tbey were
good men, but somehow or other tbey
were behind. Regular troops can bo
handled by tboir ofHcors, butvoluntcvr
officer most consult th feelings and
dispositions and wishes of tho mon.
Mr. Cook. ' Regular troops are far
loss expensive to tbo Government ? A.
Yes, in tho aggregate. Rogular soldiers
do not cost one-half as much as volun
leers, because you never know when
you are done paying volunteers. Tbo
Montana troops wore got up by a Gov-
ernor there uttorly unauthorised, and
yet I believe tbat Congress is to-day
paying, those Montana claims. With
the regular troops when the pay roll is
paid and tho mon discharged lb thing
is done. ' It seems to mo tbat when
such officers as Terry, Crook and Sheri
dan (wbo are charged with the re
sponsibility for th result) are willing
to tako this cheap class of Interior men
(of whom yon speak), Congress should
be satisfied.
Mr. Terry. But Congress has to
exerciso its own judgment A. Yos,
but 1 not better to defer to tho judg
ment of the men on the spot?
; Tbo Chairman. Is thore an abso
lute necessity for this? A. I think
thoro is.
Mr. MacDougall. You think tbat
anybody can make soldier wbo knows
enough to obey orders ? A. If bo has
good logs and arms, and a good diges
tion, and will obey orders, bo will gen
erally accomplish what tbo Govorn
ment wonts. I have seen a good many
of tbo privnte soldiers within tho lost
two years in traveling in Toxas and
tbe Indian country, and I assure you
that they are a better class of men
than even 1 myself hoped wo could
got at the present pay.
Mr. Reilly. Compared with the pay
of laboring men, tbo privalo soldier is
very well paid ? A. Congress is per
feotly competent to judge of that
Congress says that 113 a month is sul-
fioient; we say so, too. We do not
complain of tbe pay. Tbe soldiers of
our army are bettor taken care of than
tbe soldiers of any othor army on tbe
globe.
The Chairman. Well, they ought
to be. A. Thoy are. Some of our
regimont aro down to 323, 3G2 and
382 men. If you wore to tako from
them 100 mon to make up Ihoeo onv-
airy companies yon would rednco tboir
companies to 24 or 25 men.
Tbe Chairman. Are thoro not too
many companies and rogimonts for the
number men? A. Yes; we have too
many regiments for 25,000 men.
The Chairman. Thoro were on tho
8th of July 8,334 troops in the South
ern State. Could not reinforcement
be made np from them? A. Some
hav been drawn from Virginia and
some from North Carolina and South
Carolina. There aro now soma 3,000
troop in tho South, outaide of Texas.
Texas bos more troops than any othor
part of the United Stales. Tbey aro
along the Moxican bordor and the In
dian border, but tbero aro none within
the settled parts of Texas.
Tbe Chairman. Does not the re
election of President Lerdo do Tejada
and the departure of Cortina diminish
th danger In that quarter? A. Cor
tina has got back and is worse than
ever. Ho is at Matamora getting up
a new revolution. The Moxican bordor
is In as bad a state as it can be.
Ths Chairman. Could tbo army in
the Indian country be properly rein
forced by th 3,000 mon now located
la th Boutbern State, ou Uide ofTexas?
A. I understand trom th highest au
thority tbat those troop aro needed
there by marshal and revenue officers
ror maintaining ths publio peace, etc.
that Is as far a I bave th right to go.
Mr, Hurlbut Somo aro in garrison
along tha scnportforU? A. Yes, there
aro somo 400 in the forts and at For-
lroa Monroo which is a school for ar
tillery und bos nothing more to do
with the South than with JIuine.
There are flvo companies tboro and;
150 extra recruits and extra officers
for instruction iii tho science of artil
lery. Thoy aro not subject to tho
commanding General ol tbo depart
ment, but to my order.
Mr. MacDougull. Is tboreasurplus
of ofllcors in tbo army? A. Thoro is
not, but a great scarcity, cspocially of
juuior ofllcors. Thore aro plonty of
high officers, but a scarcity ot young

Mr. Reilly. Thoro aro 401 men in
Mississippi. A. Tbore are only six com
panies thoro. Somo mon wore sont up
from Holly Springs to escapo yellow
fever In Louisiuna. Thoy are merely
cantoned thoro. Every timo that wo
propose to withdraw troops there is an
effort made by the Governors and
mombers ol Congress to keop thorn
tboro. I do not believe thore are more
than 200 mon stalionod in Mississippi.
1 suppose tboro is no concealment of
tbo fact that the negroes down thoro
are uneasy and rostless. They claim
oasistanco and protection from tbe
Government of the United States, and
tbo orders aro to afford it to tbem ; not
to interfere with tho State authorities
by any means, but to afford protection
to any human being that applies for it
at a garrison.
Mr. Cook. I do not think that the
troops bavo been called on in ten years.
A. 1 do not know tbat tbey bavo, but
tbe people of Goorgia aro very glad to
bave a garrison al Atlanta.
The Chairman. Tbe object of my
inquiry was to ascertain whotber troops
could bo spared from tho South to re
inforce tbo army in tbe Indian country.
A. I nm compelled to answer that they
cannot bo spared, becauso tboso who
are ontnnitcd with powor Judge thoir
presence Ihcrc noceiwsry. That decis
ion ia to mc sncred and final, and gov
erns me.
Mr. Terry. You do not, however,
sny thnt it is your judgment? A. It
is hardly right to ask a soldier for an
opinion behind his duty. Wo ought
not to form an opinion.
Tho Chairman. Your advice would
bo against reducing the present term
of enlistment? A. Yos, I would pre
fer to enlist them under existing laws.
Tho Chairman. If tbo term of en
listment was mado shorter do you not
think you could get those recruits into
service earlier? A. No. If a man
makes- np bis mind to enlist be does
not stop to inquire as to the term. We
can get as many recruits for five yean
as we can lor three years or for one
year. The Indian Department now
is in lull active co-operation with us,
and wo arc acting in perfect harmony.
Crook and Terry bave received at this
timo all tho reinforcements that tbey
hav asked lor or that w expect to
give at this moment Wo are now
looking to tbe qncstion of our rear.
The Indian Department is in full sym
pathy with our army.
The Chairman. V hat is the strength
of Crook's and Terry's commands ? A.
I think thoy amount to 2,500 men each.
Mr. Williams. Aro you notiinpresod
with tbe idea that the Indians are
breaking up? A. 1 think tbey aro
scattering now. Crook and Terry are
both extremely careful, prudent, cau
tions men, and will not attack these
Indians in position until tbey can givo
thorn a tremendous whipping.
Mr. Terry. What proportion of tbe
troops is infantry ? A. Crook must
have got 28 companies of cavalry that
would average about 60 mon. He must
have 1,500 cavalry and about 1,000 in
fantry. Terry must bave 1,600 infant
ry and about 500 or 600 cavalry. He
has tho whole ot tbo Sovonth Cavalry
(which wo have reinforced as much as
possible) and four companies ol the
Second. ......
Tbe Chairman asked tbe Secretary
of War whether be desired to mako
any statement to the committee, but
tbe Secretary merely said that be con
curred entirely in all that General Sher
man bad said.

The Republican Senate bos stood in
th way of all etibstantm! reforms
throughout tho eight months and
half that Congress has been in session.
Thore is not redeeming toataro in
tho proceedings of the majority.
Every measure of the session look
ing to retrenchment, economy, and im
provement in the civil service, has orig
inated in tbe Democratic House, if
measures of this class havo been finally
passed, it has happened only after a
protracted struggle, In which the Dem
ocrats of tbo Houso stood squarely np
to tbe work, while lb Republican
leaders in the Senate did thoir best to
defeat them. . In the entire history of
tho session thore cannot be found a
solitary exception to this sweeping re
mark. In this respect tbo present
Senate has made tho most infamous
record in tho annals ol tbat body. '
Tbe Republicans now bavo a majori
ty of nine in tbe Senate. The terms of
oventcen ol the Republican mombers
expire in March next There is every
reason to believe that tho Democrats
will secure enough of these scats to
givo them a majority ot two In tbe
next Senate. Then, with a majority
of reformers in each branch of Con
gress, and with Sam Tilden in tho
While Houso, the country will turn
over a new loaf indeed. N. Y. Sun.

It Is entirely In tho power of the
Democracy to doterniine the result of
the Presidential contest that Is upon
us. This conclusion is based on curtain
facts which hav already bocomo well
recognised, or are In process of gradual
and certain development Tbo results
of former Presidential elections, during
and since the war, bave bocn disastrous
to our parly, cither bocauso of actual
majorities against it, or on account of
Federal interference wbon the election
ought to have gone really In its lavor.
This year, all that is required in order
to secure Democratic victory is a full
Democratic vole. Tbo people have
reached the point of "back returning."
They desiro a cbango of Administra
tion ; thoy want reform, economy and
honesty in publio affairs. Adborenls
of all parties are anxious to abandon
thnt false system of politics heretofore
insisted on, and by which they have
been tbe victims of corruption, partisan
lcgislution,robbry, and powerless laws.
We repeat, tbon, tbat the Republican
party run be turned out of office this
fall, if only tho full vote is polled. We
hope every good citixen will give tho
effort bis support; for united work in
this direction means success.
The Democracy have an excellent
ticket in the field, representing no part
of tho corrupt system which has made
our Civil Sorvice a na'ional abomina
tion. Tbe ticket represents the na
tional sentiment of Reform and Recon
ciliation, and gives assurance tbat it
means all tbat those words imply by
the nomination of men who bave tbe
record of Reformers lor Reform's Rake.
Tho public senso bos boon outraged
and tbe public heart sickoned with the
spectacle, under Republican rulo, of
betrayed trusts and corruption in office,
ot high places sought and bold solely
for private gain, and of tho incompe
tence and worse which have dbitin
guislied tho management of our na
tional affairs under tho present Admin
istration. Tbe people know that with
corruption begins tbe decay of Gov
ernment, and that without honesty and
virtue in tbo Administration no form
of Government can long endure. Thoy
bavo resolved, therefore, to unite in a
strugglo to achieve reform, caring little
which party thereby socures powor, so
long as the main object is rained. We
believe thoy will give the control into
tho hands ot tbe Democracy, for the
reason that tbo St Louis ticket pre
sents many and marked advantages
over that nominated at Cincinnati, and
because tbo nation has already been
too long in tbo hands of cancus mana
gers and unscrupulous politicians. To
insure this result, however, the Demo
crats themselves must show tboir fuitb
by their works, and resolve to poll
every vote in tbe party for Tilden and
Hendricks Seeing this determination,
and being thereby convinced of our
sincerity, tho independent voter will
join us, and victory will crown a noblo
effort thus happily began and vnlor-
ously maintained.
Let tbe Democratic watchwords bo,
Honest Money, Civil Sorvice Reform,
and Economy in Expenditure. Tbis
is all tbo platlorm tho people want
Let tbem bo sure tbat tbe men who
stand upon it represent theso meas
ures, and November will signalise tbo
opening ol the now century of our na
tional existence by tbe re-establish-ment
of Democratic supremacy and
the renewal of national prosperity.

Grant throws open lbs door and lets
the guilty Belknap escape by resigna
tion. A Republican National Conven
tion heartily indorses tho President.
Hayes cordially approves the indorse
ment A Republican Senate tbeu turns
back the avenging House of Represen
tatives, and laughs tho people to scorn.
And this is tho sort of an administra
tion tho people aro asked to approve
by olocling Hayes. Albany Aryui.
