GOOD ADVICE FROJI THE SECRETARY.
St Urges the Chlslk to Em Tuih ia Uncle Bin md
to Ectp tilt Petce.
Washington, Feb. 7. The conference
between Secretary Noble and the Sioux
Indian delegation was begun this morning
St the Interior Department. The Secretary
of War, Mrs. Proctor and Miss Proctor
were present, and also the wife of Secretary
Noble and Miss Halstead. Others promi
nent in the work for the Indians were inter
ested spectators.
JJThe conference was opened by Secretary
Noble, who said: "Vou were represented
here just after the agreement with General
Crook was made. You made certain re
quests and complaints at that time, and you
received certain promises from me. There
has been trouble since then, and you have
come again to say what you think proper as
to the canse of that trouble and to make any
further complaints you see fit. The Secre
tary is here to tell you that he has kept his
word, but if there is anything he can do,
through friendship for the Sioux, be is
ready to do it. He is your friend, and the
Great Fattier has told him to be your
friend. He wants you to talk to him as a
friend, and he will meet you in the same
spirit."
A Call Tor Speakers.
The Secretary then asked if the Indians
had made any arrangements about speakers.
He could not hear them all, but he could
listen to a few, and he desired them to speak
briefly. He added that it no objection was
made, he would hear from John Grass,
Hollow Horn, Bear, American Horse, Two
Strike, Hump and YouDg-JIan-Afraid-of-His-Horses.
In response, Louis Bencoltre said that
this arrangement was not satisfactory, as it
was desired that each agency should be rep
resented in the speakers. The Secretary re
plied that he would hear John Grass and
American Horse and then take counsel with
them as to who should follow. John Grass
then came forward. The Kev. C. S. Cook,
the Episcopal minister at Pine Kidge, acted
us interpreter.
Grass at once began to speak of the recent
trouble among the Indians, the origin of
which he did not know. The Indians, he
said, did not desire to be driven back to their
wild life, but wished to consult with the
President, so as to determine UDon the fut
ure. The Indians thought it desirable that
the agents should be civilians rather than
military. In the past, he said, the Indian
sgents had opportunities to steal, but now it
was difficult for them to adopt such prac
tices. Good 'Words for Indian Agents.
The agents in late years, he said, were
good men. In speaking ot his own reserva
tion, that of Standing Eock, the threatened
trouble bad been put down by the Indian
police. They believed in the Indian police,
and he was requested to ask for an increase
of SO men. Grass then shook hands with
the Secretary and tooK his seat
American Horse was the next speaker.
He displayed considerable natural ability
and madea graceful preface to his remarks,
referring in complimentary terms to the
Secretary and the ladies present. The Gov
ernment, be said, had made mistakes in
their attempts to civilize the In
dians. He proceeded to enumerate these
mistakes. Instead of the positions at the
agencies being filled in by Indians, white
men crowded them out and took the places.
"What his people wanted was achance to rise
and fill the positions of trust and conse
quence that were witnin their reach.
Opposed to Torced Marriage.
He then spoke of religions matters, and
Eaid that there were three religious' bodies
on their reservation who were trying to
teach them to live better lives, aud espe
cially to bring about religious marriages.
Hut they did not want to be compelled to
marry certain persons. The Secretary in
quired who had bought to compel them to
marry. American Horse replied that he re
ferred more particularly to persons who
eloped. "When the couple were brought
back the agent obliged them to be married.
The sneaker then asked that the losses
suffered by the Indians in the late disturb
ance be made good by the Government. He
favored the removal of the Carlisle school
to the West.
Young-Man-A fraid-of-His-Horses related
his services in the interest of harmony dur
ing the late trouble. He had brought his
people into camp, and had turned in their
arms. '-How manj?" queried the Secretary,
and the orator was somewhat nonplussed.
He knew the total was small, and he
did not care to say. He hoped the Govern
ment would not o'nly educate the children,
but would also give them something to do
when they finished at school.
All Anxious for Peace.
Two Strike said he had made peace with
General Miles, and w.is now going to do
what he could to maintain it. Hump said
about 300 or his people had been killed, and
there should be some consideration shown
the survivors. He wanted the rations in
creased and continued. Hollow Horn, Bear
and Medicine Bull talked briefly, and then
Secretary Noble spoke to the Indians. He
said:
"The Indian must not be discouraged.
He would be supported so long as he en
deavored to do well. There were two sides
to the question of what is due the Indian
and what is due from the Indian. Up to
lStl the Sioux had teen given ?42,000,000 by
ttie Government. The Government
acknowledges its treaties and agreements
with the Sioux. Since 1884, when this
money was paid, there had been much more
money paid, according to the treaty. The
Secretary then quoted statistics as to the
issues to Indians. The schools that the
Indians want have been kept up at all of
the agencies, and industrial schools, such as
they want, hve also been established at
3'ione, and another school will be put up
at riai.dicau.
Secretary Noble's Good Adilce.
"Farmers have been kept at the different
agencies to show the Sioux how to farm the
land. It was a mere accident that J100.000
should have been cut off the Sioux appro
priation immediately after the agreement
with General Crook. It would have been
the same if there had been no agreement.
These things should convince the Sioux
that the Government has been trying to do
what was right for the Indians."
In conclusion, the Secretary advised the
Indians to think overlhe many things the
Government had done for them; to look at
the promises made by General Crook, and
to have confidence in what he said. The
Secretary said he wanted the Indians to
make up their minds to do the best they
could, to educate or to have educated their
children, and never to let their young men
dream that they could ever get anvthing
by force from the United States. The Sec
retary's speech closed with renewed assur
ances of iriendshin.

The Tiews of the minority of tho com

A FEW PLEASANTRIES
BETWEEH CHICAGO AND HEW JEESEx"
OVEB THE WOELD'S TAIB.
Salaries of Exposition Officers Finally Fixed
by tho House After Some DeDate Sev
eral Protests From Butterworth Cand
ler's Amendment Is Baled Out.
Washington, Feb. 7. The House went
into committee of the whole to-day (Mr.
Parson, of Illinois, in the chair) ori the
sundry civil appropriation bill. The pend
ing question was the decision of the chair
on Mr. Mason's point of order raised against
Mr. Candler's amendment on the payment
of World's Fair salaries. After a brief tie
hate the Chairman ruled the amendment
out of order as changing existing laws.
Mr. Sawyer, of Texas, offered an amend
ment decreasing from $55,000,000 to 540,060,
000 the appronriation for salaries, with a
provision that not exceeding 520,000 shall
be used in the payment of the sal
aries of the President, Secretary, Director
General and Vice President of the Execu
tive Committee.
The Chairman overruled a point of order
raised against this amendment by Mr. But
terworth, of Ohio.
Mr. Wilson, of West Virginia, offered as
a substitute an amendment fixing the sala
ries as follows: President, S5.000; Vice
President of Executive Committee, 4,000;
Secretary, 53,000; clerk, stenographers,
etc, 58.000; in all, 520,000.
Mr. Butterworth opposed both proposi
tions, characterizing them as a stab at the
Exposition and at the national honor. They
would denationalize the Exposition and
humiliate it in the eyes of the country and
of the world.
Mr. Wilson denied that there was any
feeling among the members of the Quadro
Centennial Committee antagonistic to the
proposition. The best friends of the exposi
tion were those who were trying to bring
down the expenditures.
Mr. Butterworth offered an amendment to
the substitute, fixing the salary of the
Director General at $7,500.
Mr. Lawler, of Illinois, regarded the
amendments as a repetition ot the old fight
as to theilocaticn of the World's Fair. The
passage of either ot the amendments would
not serve the interests of the Fair. Certain
gentlemen ljad been jealous of Chicago ever
since the jite had been decided upon. He
denied that the World's Fair was turning
into a political machine.
Mr. Buchanan, of New Jersey, expressed
his disbelief that, after the site was selected,
there was a particle of jealousy left In the
breast of any gentleman on the floor.
Mr. Lawler suggested that the gentleman
did not know what he was talking about
Mr. Buchanan replied that if that remark
were an exhibition of Chicago manners, the
Fair should not receive any appropriation.
Mr. Lawler replied that he could fortify
what he had said; and that the statement of
the gentleman from New Jersey was cot
true.
Mr. Buchanan said that he knew Chicago
Kepresentatives who were courteous to their
fellow members, and he knew some Chicago
Beprcsentatives who would negative the
idea.
Mr. Buiterworth's amendment to the sub
stitute was agreed to, and the Wilson sub
stitute, as amended, was adopted.
Amendments were adopted striking out
the appropriation of $15,000 each for the ex
penses of one meeting of the commission in
1892, and of oue meeting of the Board of
Lady Managers in 1892. Without disposing
of the bill the committee rose.
THE EIGHT-HOUB BILL.
It Is Amended and Modified and Recom
mitted to the Committee.
Washington, Feb. 7. Consideration of
the House bill for the adjustment of the
accounts of workmen, laborers and
mechanics under the eight - hour
law was resumed in the Senate to-day.
The bill was discussed at great length,
amended and modified, and finally ou mo
tion of Mr. Wolcott was recommended to the
Committee on Education. Yeas, 27; nays,
24. Before the vote was announced, and
when Mr. Blair learned how it stood, he
changed his vote from no to aye, and then
moved a reconsideration.
Mr. Harris moved to lay that motion on
the table. Pending action, however, the
death of Mr. Phelan, of Tennessee, was an
nounced, and Mr. Harris offered a resolu
tion of regret and condolence, as well as a
resolution for the appointment of a commit
tee to attend the funeral. Senators Harris,
Jones, of Arkansas, Faulkner, Stock
bridge and Pierce were appointed such com
mittee, and as a further mark of respect the
Senate adjourned.
CONGBESSHAS' PHELAIFS DEATH.
The House Adjourns as a Mark of Respect
to Ills Memory.
Washington, Feb. 7. Mr. McMillin,
of Tennessee, said that the sad duty de
volved upon him of announcing to the
House the death at Nassau, where he had
gone in search of health, of the
Hon. James Phelan, member of Con
gress from the Tenth district of Ten
nessee. He would at the appropriate
time asked the House to express its appre
ciation of a ripe scholar, a pure patriot, and
a noble statesman. Mr. McMillan
then offered the following resolu
tion: "That the House has heard
with profound sorrow and deep regret of the
death of Hon. James Phelan; that a com
mittee ot seven members of the House, with
such members of the Senate as may be
joined, be appointed to attend the funeral.
The Speaker appointed Messrs. Washing
ton, McKae, Wickham, Enloe, Stockbridge,
Montgomery and Coleman as said commit
tee; and then, as a mark of respect to the
memory of the dead, the House adjourned.
DIVISION OF DUTIES.
The Central American Mission Divided Into
Two, With Reduced Salary.
"Washington. Feb. 7. Senator Sherman
to-day, from the Committee on Foreign Re
lations, reported to the Senate an amend
ment proposed to be made to the diplomatic
and Consular appropriation bill, which con
templates the division of the Central
American Mission into two missions,
one to include Nicaragua, Costa
Bica and Salvador, and the other
Honduras and Guatemala. The salaries of
the Ministers are fixed at $7,500 instead of
$10,000, which is the salary at present of the
single mission.
The division is proposed by the committee
on the ground that the difficulty of travel is
so great that it is not possible for one Minis
ter to properly meet the necessities of the
mission.
Pension for General SigeL
Washington, Feb. 7. The President
has approved the act granting a pension to
Major General Franz Sigel and the act
making an apportionment of Representa
tive! in Congress among the several States
tinder the eleventh census.

Washington, Feb. 7. In the Senate

HOW GOT. HILL WAS BiDE-TEACKED
New Tobk, Feb. 7. Tho Herald's
Washington correspondent has succeeded in
getting an interview out of Senator Quay
and it smacks of olditimes to correspond
ents who used to tackle the Beaver states
man before he elected Harrison. The sub
stance of the interview follows:
"I regard Hill's election to the Senate, if
it secures to Cleveland the nomination, as it
is alleged it will do, the best thing that
could happen for the Republicans.
''It is plain that Hijl can carry New
York, and that Cleveland would lose the
State without any doubt. I hope it is true
that Hill has actually 'abdicated! and that
Cleveland will be the Democratic candidate
next time. It tends to simplify the case
very much."
"They say Gorman is the coming man.
What would you say to that?"
"Were Gorman to be nominated what
would Cleveland's supporters do, the mug
wumps especially, who are his bodyguard
and main reliance? Would he not, like
Cleveland, lose New York. Could he carry
Indiana or New Jersey? He might win in
two of these States, but what one ot the new
States, with their 30 odd votes, all Repub
lican, conld he expect to carry? In tact,
with these new States solidly Republican,
what hope would any Democrat have?"
Blaine for tho Bepnbllcans.
"Then you count on the Republicans pre
senting a solid front in support ot their can
didate?" "I certainly do."
"And that candidate will be "
"Name, him yourself."
"Well, suppose Blaine is the man, how
would it be?"
. "All right. Why is not Blaine the best
man for the Republicans? What is the
matter with Blaine ? Come, tell me.
I do not say he is, but I ask you why he is
not?"
"Would Pennsylvania be for him for the
nomination?"
"That would depend on whether Blame
wanted the nomination. If he did he would
have Pennsylvania at his bace. Do you
think Mr. Blaine wants the nomination?"
fired back the Senator.
"What say you?" was the counterfire.
The Senator hesitated and then said: "I
see no reason why he should not wish to be
President as much as be ever did. Deeper
than ever before in public affairs, and man
aging great questions to the satisfaction of
the country, it is probable that he thinks
less as a politician than at any previous
time in his career. It would be only natural
that his present employment should cause the
Presidency to be a natural desire, stronger
than ever before, though he may find less
time to manifest the feeling."
Borne Other Possibilities.
"How would New York be?"
"I cannot answer that. But why should
not New York stand with Pennsylvania for
Blaine? She would give her electoral vote
for him were he to be the candidate of the
party. Whether she would be for his nomi
nation in the convention would depend
somewhat on who the other candidates were.
Suppose Cullom, Lincoln, Allison or Jerry
Rusk should be pushed? What's the mat
ter with Reed?" quickly asked the National
Chairman, "and Lincoln wouldn't he be a
strong candidate and the Illinois Senator,
what is the matter with him? You see,
there is likely to be no want of candidates,
and good ones, too, besides Mr. Blaine."
" How far will the new elements that
have come forth bear upon the future in
fluence results?"
"Undeniably, in my belief, the country is
thoroughly disposed to welcome reciprocity,
and on that account Mr. Blaine is some
thing different, if not better than before. As
to the Alliance outbreak in certain Repub
lican States, it doubtless cuts deep. Im
portant changes may tako place before the
nomination is made, but Jerry Rusk is
likely to be the choice of his own State at
leist."
"Will Pennsylvania, New York and cer
tain other States be likely to act together in
making the next Republican Presidental
nomination and to bhape matters gener
ally?" "I do not know that they will. They
may gravitate together. Why not? It is
too soon to decide that, or much of anything
else as to combinations, outside of the fact
that there stands the great West. Her
power is being felt nearly everywhere else,
and what reason is there why it will not be
equally felt in national conventions? It is
something not to be forgotten."
THE GREAT HANDSHAKE.
SECEET BEHTHD THE MEETING OF CLEVE
LAND AHD HILL.
A Cancns of Democrats at Washington Or
dered the Empire Governor to Get Off
the Track So Grover Could Pass One
Scandal Prevented, Another Promised,
rSFECIAL TELBOEJLM TO THE DISPATCH. 1
Ne-w Yoek, Feb. 7. New light has just
been shed on the acceptance of the Senator
ship by Governor Hill and the recent
friendly handshake between Hill and Cleve
land at Colonel Brown's Manhattan Club
dinner. It seems a Democratic caucus or
dered the Governor to get off the Presidental
track.
Hon. Henry Watterson, the brilliant jour
nalist and consort of the star-eyed goddess,
was chosen as spokesman by the majority, if
not nearly tne entire body of Democrats at
the caucus. The letter Mr. Watterson wrote
Governor Hill told hiui that his friends,
representing all the Democratic States, were
each of the opinion that their constituents
were practically unanimous for Grover
Cleveland, and that even if he, Hill, could
carry bis own State, he could get no other
State delegation in the National Convention.
The letter stated that whether the idol of the
Democracy in the various States was the real
flesh and blood Cleveland, or whether it was
an ideal Cleveland set up in the popular
mind, the fact was the same. Therefore, tl.e
letter continued, it was the opinion and ad
vice of these Senators that Hill should take
the Senatorsbip in order to spare his party
the disgrace and shame of dissension and
difference in the Empire State, and himself
the humiliation of certain defeat as the out
come of it
The letter went on to say that by taking
the Senatorsbip Mr. Hill would intrench
himself in a strong position for 1896, and
that, in order that he might make this posi
tion positive, it had been agreed that he
should have the fullest opportunities to dis
play his ability immediately upon entering
the Senate: that is to say, be should not be
obliged to undergo the usual probationary
term of inactivity which custom imposes
upon new Senators. The letter was most
complimentary, friendly, firm and explicit,
add Governor Hill had every additional
assurance that it voiced the sentiments of
the Senators. Blodgett, of New Jersey,
nu3 luc uiusfc umaujo tiuseiime irom tne
caucus; Gorman, of Maryland, was con
spicuous in directing its action.
Governor Hill, therefore, pursued the
only course lift to him :.s a sensible man.
He explained his behavior differently to
different persons, his favorite explanation
being that he accepted the place to save a
serious seandal. Though it is not the fact,
-was danger of a Tery nauaeous performance-: -
PITTSBURG DISPATCH,
A plot was on foot in favor of one of the
-many who wanted the place aud. the plan
was that if any man but he were seen to be
likely to get the election, there was to be a
purchase of three or four Assemblymen at
520,000 apiece to bolt the Democratic caucus
and join the Republicans, who were quite
willing to vote for this especial person. It
was even suspected who these treasonable
Democrats were.
Smith M. Weed's home organ shows that
he feels his disappointment keenly.
It threatens a disclosure. Last sum
mer, when Mr. Hill .had no idea that the
Assembly would be Democratic,he promised
Mr. Weed the Senatorship. That every
body knows, but what is not known is that
at tbe same time Mr. Weed was induced to
contributeSlO.OOO to the campaigd fund. This
is the fact that the Weed organ threatens to
make public.

And now for the Odds and Ends !
The Remnants, the Broken Sizes, the Odd Lots !
Everybody knows how quickly Odds and Ends will accu
mulate in as busy a store and big a stock as Kaufmanns'.
They have been pilinr up and piling up, until now we
fairly have stacks ornem in every department They're
an eye-sore to us, 1..JI we want to get rid of them. There
are about $25,000 worth of them in all, and we'll be glad
if we can get $10,000 for them. At any rate, they must
go this week. At the prices we'll sell them they're bound
to attract big crowds. We have already made prepara
tions with a view to facilitate purchasing as much as pos
sible. The Odds and Ends and Broken Sizes of every
department have been brought forth and placed on spe
cial counters, and above each counter we have suspended
a sign to attract your attention and guide you to the
proper places,
JOuIs and Ends Counters of Men's Snlsl
There are 274 suits in all hardly two alike Light Suits
and Dark Suits, Sack Suits and Frock Suits, Heavy and
Medium-weight Suits no old trash, but good, fresh
goods; but, unfortunately for us, they're broken sizes.
They'll be sold at less than half their actual value.
j Odds and Ends Counters of Men's Overcoats!
233 of them by actual count among them, the dressy
Meltons and Kerseys, the popular Chinchillas and
Beavers, the stylish Cheviots and Cassimeres English
Box Coats, Prince Charles styles and Ulsters. They're
broken sizes, and that's the reason ve sell 'em for less
than half what they're worth.
JOdds and Ends Counters of Men's Pants l
Almost (not quite) 500 pairs Stripes, Checks, Mixtures,
Plaids Light Patterns and Dark Patterns for Dress and
Business all cut in style and worth 100c on the dollar
TO YOU, but, being broken sizes, we will let them go
at reductions averaging 45 per cent
JOdds and Ends Counters of Boys' Clothingl
Kilt Suits, Short-Pant Suits and Long-Pant Suits Suits
for Play, Suits for School, Suits for Dress over 400 of
them BUT NO THREE SIZES OF ANY ONE
PATTERN. That's the reason why we'll be only too
glad to get rid of them at about half regular prices.
JOdds : and : Ends : Counters ! of : Cloaks l
On these counters you will find broken sizes of Newmar
kets, Jackets, Reefers, Plush Garments, Furs, Corsets,
Muslin Underwear; also Girls' and Infants' Garments.
Hardly two things alike. We shall be glad to get almost
anything for these fearfully broken sizes.
Odds : and : Ends : Counters : of : Shoesl
Men's, Women's, Misses', Boys' and Children's Shoes
all styles, but hardly more than three or four sizes of any
one style. Can you blame us for sacrificing these goods
for almost any price they will bring? If you can find your
fit, you'll have the cheapest pair of shoes it was ever your
good fortune to buy.
Odds and Ends Counters of Hats and Caps!
Odds and Ends Counters of Furnishing Goods!
Odds and Ends Counters of Chinaware and Crockery!
Odds and Ends Counters of Glassware and Bric-a-"Brac!
