 Washington, June 1.-The Indian delega- ton met at the rooms of the Secretary of the Interior this A. M. to have another coun- cil. Commissioner Smith reminded the h. dians of the proposition that had been made them to relinquish part of their hunting grounds on the payment of S25 ,OOU, and of the desire of the whites to go to the Black Hills and of the difficulty of preventing them. If they did not accept the offer in 50 days they might not get it at all. Red Cloud answered, saying that when they selected the present reservation they were told it was for thirty-fve years; nothing was then said about the Indian Territory. He thought it hard that he should now be asked to go there, and he would not. His country wss good one, and he wished to keep it.. He considered the running of the Nebraska line through his country as robbery, and com plained of the character of the food sent bis people. He was looking to the future of his children and tried to do the best for them. After some further talk the Indians agreed to accept S25, 900 in consideration of relin- quishing large portion of their hunting grounds in Nebraska. The Secretary was willing to coneede considerable territory to them ten or fifteen miles south of the Ne braska river. The treaty was drawn up but Spotted Tail refused to sign 1t until they had received the s2sooo l. was explained to him that the money could not be obtained 6Il the treaty was signed. And the Indians was then given copy of the treaty to take to their rooms to consider.
