Utah, and two subagents. A delegation OF
hoshonees or Snake Indians, a disatfected
be, were recently present at the grand council
Fort Laramie, and left with more friendly
eelings.
The treaties recently concluded by Superln-
bndent Ramsay with the Chippewas at Fem.
ina, and by Superintendent Mitchell, and Agent
fitzpatrick, with the wild tribes of the prairles AZ
Nort Laramie, came to hand at 80 late period
to afford but little time for considering their
roysions but they are fully explained 10 the
ecompanying reports Of the commissioners,
ybo doubtless have discharged with fidelity and
0ility the arduous and important duties imposed
.pon them.
There is no change in onr Indian relations
m Texas, nor is there likely to be, the com
a;ssioner SAYS, until the Indians in that State
ire placed under the exclusive control OF the
.rsaeral government; and fTexas Will not con-
lent to the arrangement suggested, necessary as
Il to the security of her frontier, and the very
existence of the Indians, she can have no just
.ause to complain of Expectations committed by
Vanishing aboriginos of the country, who. Ger
Lainly have the right to live somewhere, and no
'where more certainly than on the lands which
Ilhey and their fathers have occupied for count
Hess generations.
The commissioners to treat with Indians on
Ehe border of Mexico, finding the funds lnsnif,
|cient, dissolved the commission. An account OF
their proceedings is submitted. u.
An arrangement has been entered into WIN
|(fen. Luther Blake, of Alabama, for the removal
|of the Florida Indians West, which as yet may
| be regarded as an experiment
The excess Of the regular estimates tor tht
pyesent over the past year, amounts TO sos'4fo
|caused mainly by an increased number OF agenI
In New Mexico and Utah, and the item OF $4S'
GOO for interest of Choctaw scrip. Inc specla
eSti.nates last year were $8S495466 more thar
shq present year. and the entire amount aPproprl
ataS at the last session on Indian account, ex
sBsls the aggregate sum Of the regular ant
an,4rial estimates now submitted $l,22S BIZ ~
Additional appropriations, however, viii be re

AIT, ority of Congress, under the direction o

The commissioner concludes with soma ap
posite remarks in regard to the practicability 0
ciyiizinp the Indians, in which he refers to tn
debasing influence of the annuity system as re
tardinp this work, and leaves the subject Wit

Report of the Commissioner Of Pensions.

The report of Mr. J. E. Heath, Commissioner
Of Pensions, exhibits favorable condition of
affairs in that bureau. The whole number of
pensioners on the rolls Is l9tll--a slight di
minuton as compared with the preceding year.
The whole amount expended for pensions dur.
ing the past year, ending the 30th September,
is as far as can tie a scertained, Sl.439 848.
'Since the last annual report, 330S warrants
have been issued for services in the Mexican war
These necessarily required much time, care, and
attention, most Of them being suspended cases.
Much labor is also employed in the examinations
necessary to prevent the issue of more than one
warrant TO claimant under both these laws In
many cases applicants filed separate applications
for their services in the several Indian wars and
in that of 1872"
The passage Of the act of 2Sth September
1850. having Induced inquiry into the rights Of
those who served in the war of lSl2, many just
claims for that service have been brought to light
The numerous examinations necessary to decide
whether claimants dnder the act Of 1850 had re-
ceived or were entitled to bounty for services il
the war of 1912, have materially increased the
abors of the latter division in this office Ninety
two warrants have been issued in the past year
under the acts of oath December, 1911; 18th Of
January, 1912, and l0.h December, 1914, and
there are now $50 suspended claims under those
acts
Thus it will be seen that since the last report
from this office, there have been issued under
the acts of 1911, 1912 and 1914, ninety. tive
warrants, to wit
Acres

Up TO the lst Of November, about one hund
red and fifty-seven thousand cases had been filed
leaving, after deducting such as were fully OF
p rlially acted on, upwards of eighty thousand
still to be considered. The suspended cases
(abou. twenty-five thousand at the time men
toned required much more labor than TIE same
number OF or iinnry claims, and give rise to
heavy correspondence.
The net OF 2lst July, l84S, made certain pro
visions for the widows and orphans Of officers
and soldiers in the Mexican war. The numbe
who have received the benefit of the act, and are
now on the rolls, is l.75O.
