The Indian Trust Frauds.

The Chicago Inter. Oceans Washington
correspondent gives complete details of the
frauds committed in the Interior Depart
ment under Buchanan and by other Demo
cratic Cabinet officers.
The total amount is nearly $4,000 900. AS
before noted Secretary Chandler has al
ready instituted suit for $7sO,OOO
The history of the transaction is this:
On the transfer of the Choctaw, Cherokee
and others tribes to the Indian Ter
ritory, the United States purchased
their lands in Georgia, Alabama and
Florida, the money to be invested
in United States bonds, held in trust
and five per cent interest paid on them. 1t
also provided in 1871 that other securities
might be purchased. Since February q,
1889, to July 9, 1860, State, railroad and
other bonds were purchased amounting to
81 SOC, ,466, viz:
Arkansas, $4,000; Florida, $l32.OOO;
Louisiana, $37 900; North Carolina, s192 900;
South Carolina, $l25,OOO; Tennessee, 1885,
666; Virginia, s59i,oOO; $266,666 by the Sc
cretary of the Treasury, $l25,OOO by the
Secretary of War and $l,l2O,sO0 by the
Secretary of the Interior.
Of the total amount, 81 ,0SO 800 was pur.
chased during Buchanan's administration.
and all but $l3, 900 Of it by the Secretary Of
the Interior. The bonds of the Southern
States we're never worth more than fifty
cents on the dollar, but were entered at
their face value in the department books,
and have been repudiated during the war
The supposition is they were purchased for
little or nothing. The Indian fund should
have paid five per cent, but 900 has
paid nothing, instead of the $2,OOS,OOO in
terest due. There is now due from the
States above named for interest: Arkansas,
$ls6, 300; Florida, $l33,42O; Louisiana
$597O; North Carolina, So, ,377; South Caro-
lima, $50 900; Tennessee, e237, ,7s5; Virginia
$4S3,34s-a total of 81, ,l99, 200.
Some of these bonds are identical with
those which Thompson is charged with ab
stracting, and are supposed to have been
resold to the government by his clerk, the
proceeds going to the aid of the rebellion
A list of these State bonds shows them
