CHICAGO, May PA Boston special
says of the reported defalcation of Abra-
ham Jackson, that the greatest mystery
is to account for the use to which he put
the money, as he lived economically.
He had no costly vice, and did not
speculate.
A Washington special says the Sioux
delegation now there promises to be
troublesome and expensive. The more
their real sentiments are learned the
more it appears they are dissatisfied with
their reception and are indisposed to ac-
coed to the wishes of those who brought
them to Washington. They are not sat
isfied with the Government interpreter,
and the Government officials are a little
suspicious of the half breeds who act in
that capacity for their chiefs. There is
also an evident want of harmony among
the chiefs. No conclusion as to the alb
rogation of the Black Hills treaty was
arrived at.
The conference took place yesterday
between the Government authorities and
the Western Congressman and Terri
torial officers. The latter were not
unanimous in their views on the subject.
There was decided difference of opin-
ion as to the existence of gold in the
hills.
Governor Thayer, of Wyoming, in
sisted that the existence of gold there
could not be denied.
Bennington, Governor of Dakota, was
very much inclined to discredit the gold
story. He said there was no gold there,
and that few persons wished to go there
except such as would cut a throat OF
scuttle ship. He said few of the good
people of his Territory had been misled
and had violated the treaty by going into
that country, but he was confident in
this respect that the people of Dakota
had been more modest than their neigh.
bors.
Governor Thayer here asked if the con,
ference was a burlesque and left in
huff. The prospects OF the negotiations
of new treaty are not promising.
