WAsa1so7os. MAY 3.-Thue Secretary Of the In
terror yesterday received the following telegram
| from GOV. Ferry, Of Washington Territory
There strong indications 81 hostility among ,s ths
docs have probably visited them. The settlers have
called upon for hrma- There are none In the Tar
Ettory- 1awsit instructions. ...
The telegram Was referred to Acting Secretary
| Robeson, who authorizes the issue OF arms, on
the Territory's quota for militia, on the requisi-
ton Of the Governor, who must understand that
the General Government in no way authorizes
any militia operations not instituted by its OF
der and under its direction and control. -.
NEW YoRK,, May s. Mr.. Brunot, Chairman OF
the Indian Commissioners, gave as his opinion
to-day that the rumore Of . threatened general
Indian war are groundless, and that nearly al
the late reports Of Indian outrageB are untrue.
He said that speculators we're largely to blame
for the present outcry against: the Indians. He
expressed his approval of the policy OF Presi-
dent Grant, aud said that four years of such
policy had proved its efficiency, fol, except afeN
nomadic tribes, the Indians had been peaceful
Mr. Brunot deprecated the cry Of holding the In
dianrace accountable for the acts OF few indi-
yiduals, or even Of whole tribe, and insisted
that Gen: sheridan's ideas OF the. proper treat
ment Of the Indians were in accord with those
OF President Grant.
