The MOdOc Question.
WASHINGTON, June 5.-The Presi-
dent, secretary of the interior and Gen
eral Sherman had consultation to-day
on the Modoc question. This was the
first formal consideration of the subject
by officers of the government, and pre-
liminary steps were taken to determine
the point at issue, namely, what shall be
done with the Modoes? In the first
place it seems to be the understanding
that the secretary of interior has no pow |
er of direction ia the premises, Or, lat least, |
he will take no present action, the In
dams having violated their treaty Obli- |
cations by resorting to hostilities, and |
thus placed themselves beyond the law
and supervision of the department. |
Secondly, the United States troops hav-
ing conducted operations against them, |
then their custody belongs to
the military the same as pris-
oners of war, captured or surren-
dered, or other persons taken in arms,
against the authority of the United
States, and guilty of atrocious acts.
Thirdly, these premises being settled,
the question as to what shall be done
with the Modoc prisoners, whether they
shall be held by the military commits
sion or remitted to the civil authorities,
viii be submitted to the attorney gen
eral by the military authorities for his
opinion, which will govern the commits
sion in the case, and in this course the
present secretary of the interior and
General Sherman are in accord.

Party
CLEVELAND, June 5.-The national
brewers congress closed its session to-
day. Addresses were made by Louis
Sehode, of Washington, and Mr.. H. n.
Reuter-, of Boston. Resolutions We're
adopted taking strong grounds against
the action of the temperance party, the
position of which, they claim, has be-
come of such a nature as to be a source
of alarm not only to the brewing inter-
ests but to the interests of the public at
large, by encrOaching on personal lib
erty and interfering with innocent So
cial habits and customs, and influencing
politicians to vote for measures of dan
gerous character, and protesting against
being classed with dealers and manu-
facturers of distilled liquors, and calling
on members of this congress to maintain
and defend a proper distinction be-
tween the two lines of trade, and
to assume an antagOnistic posi-
ton to the teetotal party and appeal to
the common sense of the public, request
ing the officials of local associations to
place themselves in correspondence with
the leaders of political parties, and use
all legitimate means to secure the cleo
ton of members to the legislature in
each State who will look after the inter-
est of the brewer. Resolving that it is
the duty of every brewer to endeavor to
obtain recognition of the difference be-
tween malt and spirituous liquors from
the legislatures, and declaring that the
duty imposed on barley from Canada
should be repealed Tomorrow the
members viii attend picnic at Rock
river.
