WASHINGTON.
Red Cloud at the White House

Red Cloud at the White House.
WASHINGTON, May 2S.-The President to-day
gave audience to Red Cloud and his delegation.
The President, through an interpreter spoke as
follows:-"Tell them l am glad to see them
here and to know they have tried hard to carry
out their promises heretofore made to keep
peace with the white people. Red Cloud could
not prevent the murders which recently took
place in their country, but would have done so
II he could. These murderers are outlaws with
him as well as with us. We want to do all we
can to advance and help Red Cloud and his
people, that they may become self-supporting
The time will come when the game will give
out, when they must resort to other means of
substance. We want to place them on land
where they can have permanent homes and to
make the location agreeable to them. He must
talk further on this subject to the Secretary of
the Interior, who acts for me. / do not want
them to remove beyond the present territory
which they now occupy, except with their own
consent. desire them to reflect on this sub
ject as the advantages are not for day or a
year but forever If they consent to this 1 will
tell them all we will do If they will go to the
Cherokee country we will set apart lands for
themselves and their children. 1t is large
country, where they will never suffer from cold.
We will build houses for their chiefs and give
them all shelter and supply. them with produce
and cattle and encourage them in farming and
this purpose either Indians or white men as
they shall prefer. We will also instruct them
how to read and speak English, and otherwise
contribute to their comfort, so that when game
is all gone they may live securely and comfort
ably. All treaty obligations we have entered into
with them will be kept by us so long as they re-
spect them. Any reply Red Cloud and Red
Dog have to make must be tOthe Secretary of
the Interior after they have talked over among
themselves what have suggested"
Red Cloud replied that he had very few words
10 say, and then spoke about the agency in this
country. The Secretary of the Interior said he
would consult them on the location of the
agency before they left the city. o.. IF.

shnw,s BLOCK Burned.


About three o'clock yesterday morning a fire
was discovered in an out-beilding in the rear of,
and adjoining Shaw's block in Biddeford, and
although the fremen promptly responded to the
alarm, yet before the engines could be brought
into position, the fire was communicated to the
main portion of the building and was soon be-
yond control. By five o'clock the entire block
was a mass of ruins. t 'ae = 1.-i-- 7l
This block was erected five or six years ago
by Hon. Chas. A. Shaw, and with the single ex-
ception of the City Buildings was the most
conspicuous and commodious building in the
city. 1t contained in the upper stories neat
and tasty opera hall, the deliberately finished
and furnished hall of the Odd Fellows, the law
Hubbard, the Union billiard halls, and dozen
or more sleeping apartments which, in con-
nection with one of the dining halls below
were used as hotel All the rooms on the
ground floor were occupied for various purposes
and in one of them was the Office of the Inter-
national Telegraph Company. 1t is impossible
to estimate with any degree of exactness the
amount of the losses, but they cannot fall far
short of $4,000, and it is said that the insur-
ance will nearly reach that amount Mr.. Shaw's
insurance is about $4,000. The law libraries
were both saved but necessarily in a much dam
aged condition. The regalias were taken from
the Odd Fellows Hall, but the lodge and en-
campment furniture was burned while nearly
all the movable property in the lower stories
was removed.
During the fire one of the fremen named
Charles Trip, was severely burned about his
face and neck. 9-.' -'- Ht - ~
Several arrests were made for theft of .arti-
cles removed from the burning building and
among them the individual in the court report
