Reply Of the spani' h Government
to tho Washington Note.
All Fears of Trouble Between the two
Governments Dissipated.

Sew York, November IS. A Washington spec
ia to the Herald says the reply OF the spanish
government to the note Of Minister Cushing, was
promptly transmitted by cable to the STATE De
partment and dccphered.
1t proves to be a dlgnltied response to the mat
ter of American interests in Cuba, and will dl>si-
pate all fears Of trouble between Spain and the
United States. The tone OF the reply Is firm but
very conciliatory, aud the justice OF our demand
is not ignored.
The confusion of affairs in Cuba obstructs the
exercise OF an impartial and prompt administra-
ton of the requirements of the treaty OF l'9o.
Spain defends her rights to maintain courts -mar-
tial in Cuba and, in support OF her position on
this question: cites the fact that the United States,
during and for long time subsequent to, the late
war of secession, and France for two years sue
ceeding the triumph of the republic over the com
mune and even under the mid reign OF liners,
made use of similar military or extraordinary
tribunals to deal out justice to public and civil
enemies for their offences.
In the case of France these tribunals sentenced
to be shot, or TO be transported TO Cayenne over
20 900 persons, and yet these tribunals exercised
their functions after the close of war and the al
vent OF complete peace.
Therefore, SPAN in the midst Of her war with
Cuba, maintains the right of using courts martial
10 try offenders against her laws but readily
makes the concession that American citizens car
have their advocates or attorneys, ana produce
witnesses in their own behalf coniorlpaby to the
cording to the regular course Of proceeding IL
such cases, and gives guarantees Of such q hlodt
of defence.
OF course, in the case Of Spanish subjects Nc
exception will be made which will allow them th'
| enjoyment OF this advantage in defending them
| selves against prosecution by the Spanish author
| tiles.
In these cases tie advocates will be designated
nv the military authorities, that is, the Captain
General will appoint them.
The above is a full synopsis of the answer of thu
Spanish government in reply to Minister Gushing
| and has been deemed satisfactory enough to war
rant countermandug of orders originally Rivei
to put our navy in preparation for a misrndtr
standing between the two governments.

Our Indian Wards.
Report Of the Black Hills Conn
missiOners.
Radical Changes Proposed.

Chicago, November Is. The Tribune publishes
the fun report of the Indian commissioners who
were to treat for the possession of the Black Hills
country. Starting out with the history of the al
fair the commissioners state the reasons for the
failure of the negotiations.
Conspicuous among these reasons is the inter
ference of persons not Indians, who are interest
ed in having large annual money payment to
the Indians, aifording permanent fund of which
the Indians may be dcspoiled.
The recommendations of the commissioners are
radical, and point to thorough revision of rcla-
tons with the whole Indian population west of
the Mississippi.
The rccomme ndatons, however, are confined to
the Sioux Indians The commissioners recon-
mend congress, instead of attempting to negotiate
TO provide BY law f0T the separation of all the
Sioux Indians, between the ages of 6 and l6
year', from the adult population, and make pro-
VISION for the thorough education of minors, at
some point or points where they will be free from
the control and influence of the adult Indians ;
this system OF education to include manual labor
and industrial schools and to be compulsory.
Having thus provided for the future civilization
OF the minor population, congress shall by law
require that the adult Indians shall perform labor
as the condition of subsistence, and after a date
in the future, subsistence shall be issued only to
such as shall labor and to the aged and infrm.
a further recommendation is that every Indian
be encouraged IN the acquisition, and protected in
the possession Of private property.
The Indians now occupying the northwestern
part of Nebraska, are to be removed to the reser-
vatons established by the treaty of 1868, where
land suitable for agriculture can be found aud
supplies furnished.
They recommend also that all the present aren-
cics be abolished and the whole. system be reor-
gained so far as relates to the Sioux Indians and
that such compensation to officers and agents be
provided as will command honesty and compe-
tency. The Indians to be notified that such force
as may be necessary will he used to enforce COM
pliance With the policy of the government to the
end that the Indians may become civilized and
seltsupporting.
The government to take upon itself the duty OF
paying to the Indians far equivalent for the
Black Hills, taking INTO consideration all the CIR
cumstances, and such sum TO be paid to become
part Of the fund required in the general plan to
educate aud cyize the Sioux.
It's proposed by this means to break up the hrc
of pauperism which the Indians have been lead
ing and to civilizc and educate the sioux and
II axe them producers.
