A BIG THING DRAMATICALLY
From the New York Tribune.

1t will be good news to all lovers of the
drama to learn that Mr.. Bret Harte and Mr..
Dion Boucicault have begun TO write a
play in collaboration, which is soon to be
produced at one of our theaters. The re-
suit of so strong combina' ion has never
bef re been seen upon our stage. The skill
and dexterity of Mr. Boucicault in dramatic
construction, his mastery of all scenic re.
scourees, combined with that delicate in
sight and power of charac. erzation which
Mr.. Harte possesses in such an ext sordi.
nary degree, offer guarantee Of great sue
cess We may confidently look for play
from which the intelligent public will de-
rive positive pleasure, and the stage lasting
advantage p .-rE-EI

aSec. Al. All the municipal law of the
ground on which the armies stand, or OF
the countries to which they belong, IS silent
and Of no effect tetweeR armies in the
feld." .s f7-- ifrf, .sr-.aa is-
!. Manifestly these rules are to great ex.
tent not altogether correct, for it cannot be
pretended that o United States soldier is
guilty of murder If he kills public enemy
In battle, which would be the case if the
municipal law was in force and application
to an act committed under such circunn-
Stances -
The Law Of Savage Warfare.
r All the laws and customs Of civilized war
fare may not be applicable to an armed con-
flic. with an Indian tribe tipen our Western
frontier, but the circumstances attending
the assassination Of Candy and Thomas are
such as make their murder as much vio-
lation of the law of savage as of civilized
warfare, and the Indians concerned In it
fully IN derstood the baseness and treachery
of their actr$ O.
Imperium I'm Imperio.
r It is difficult to define exactly the rela-
tions of the Indian tribes to the United
States, but as they have been recognized as
independent communities for treaty making
purposes, and as they frequently carry on
organised and protraeted wars they may
properly, as it seems to me, be held subject

The War Ended-Unless.
Doubtless the war with the Modocs is
practically ended, unless some Of them
should escape and renew hos ilities. But
1t is the right of the United States, as there
is no agreement for peace, to determine for
themselves whether or rot anything more
ought to be done for the protection of the
country or the punis ment OF crimes grow
ing out of the war. - n | u
Section SO of said instructions Is as fol-
lows: "a prisoner of war remains answer
able for crime committed against the cap
tors, the army or the people, committed
before he was captured, and for which he
has not been punished by bis own author
ities." ,i NJ
Conciusioi,: q
My conclusion, therefore, is that mill
tary commission may be appoin' ed to try
such of the Modoc Indians now in custody
as are charged with offences against the
recognized laws of war, and that if upon
such trial any be found guilty, they may be
subjected to such punishment as those laws
require or justify. Very respectfully, your
obedient servant,

made in the Polafis investigation, the sepa-
raticn Of the vessel from the ice foe was
purely accidental, instead of being effected
with premeditation; that there is not the
slightest reason, from the testimony thus
far taken, TO suspect any poisoning, mutiny

attributed to him in regard to the death of

The Cuban Question, s-
The conduct of the Spanish officials In
Cuba is not viewed with much favor by Mr..
Fish, and it has BEEN fosind necessary in a
recent case, Mr. Santa Rosa, a naturalized
Cuban, to address very energetic remon-
strances TO the, Madrid Government. Mr..
Santa Rosa was uDjustly arrested and i'm
prisoned by the Spanish officials when on
the eve Of sailing from Eavana. The
American Government interviewed in his
behalf, and his release being ordered, the
Havana officials made a false report to their
government that be had been liberated. Ii
became necessary to pursue very per-
emptory tone with Spain before his release
was actually effected. In the case of
O'Kelly, the Herald correspondent Che being
British subject) the American consul
merely rendered his good offices. 1t seems
to be the policy of The Spanish government
not to injure O'Kelly, except by a yexatiUus
detention, and by such Interference witk
his vocation as will render bis letters to the
Herald stale aud yalueless before they can
be printed. The department has not yet
bad before it cffici lily the csse of Price,
the other Herald correspondent; but he
seems to have been at one tune an efficient
consular official, and the request for bis re-
lease will probably be backed up as far as
possible by the influence Of the Govern
