The question as 10 the disposition Of the Communis
prisoners has at last been settled. Ex-Deegat,
Poston, IN an interview with M. Victor lie Franc
Minister of Commerce, was told by this gentleman

society impossible anywhere they obtained upper

upon accepting voluntary emigration.

men Will be aided by the government OF France
with transportation by way or the Gulf of
California. Implements Of husbandry, mining
and railroad tools, and six monthly sup
plies Of provisions, with tents, and also such
arms as may be necessary for protection against the
awless savages called Apaches Will be furnished.
