The POst-Tradcrshlp Frauds.

GEN. CUSTER BEFORE The COMMITTEE.
The Clymer committee had Gen. C.ster
before them. on Wednesday. The General
testified to the existence OF ring of post
traders in the Dakota forts, at Fort Lincoln
and other adjacent forts. When the ring
was broken, Sipes, one of the traders, con-
fcs~ed that third Of their profits Of SIS
600 went to Gen. Hedrick, and another Part
Of it to Gen. Rice. Sipes added that he al
ways supposed that part of this money went
to Belknap When Belknap visited Fort
Lincoln, Custer told him Sipes held whip
over the officers, extorting money from them,
bat Belknap "poch-pophed 1t, and said
he (Custer) shouldn't believe all he heard
0r,ille Grant, in travelling in Dakota, ask
ed witt eSs for government ambulance, driY
er and mules. and witness gave it out Of
courtesy to the Presidents family The
proclamation Issued by the President, last
January and April, extending the bounda-
ries of the Sioux reservation across the east
bank Of the Missouri, made Oryille Grant
monopoly more perfect and dispossessed his
competitors. A Mrs. Galpin, Sioux
squaw, trading at Standing Rock, was in
Orville's way, and he asked for troops to re-
move her, but he Caster declined to grant
the request The effect of the law of 1870,
giving these appointments of post-traders to
the secretary OF war, had been to increase
the inconvenience of frontier life and to
make them pay exorbitant prices for the
slightest neeessarles.
Mr., Clymer-Did you ever represent these
facts to the secretary of war?
Gen. CluSter-No, sir. vas as suspl-
ciou4 of him as was of any sutler. Laugh
ter. We regarded the secretary o. war
silent partner 10 almost all the posts.
Laughter. Continuing, Gen. Custer said
he heard that Cen Belknap paid for several
oil paintings of himself and Others with gov
ernment money, and he Custer never had
read of any provision Of law authorizing
such payments. Laughter. The artist,
Mr. Huntington, in New York, said the
secretary had given him so much work that
he had reduced the price for him to $500
apiece. When Belknap revisited Fort Lincoln,
Sipes and the other traders sent three baskets
OF champagne to Custer with which he might
entertain the Secretary of War but Custer sent
back the wine, saying that he did not want
to entertain him. Laughter. Mr.. Dickey,
Il former post-trader at Fort Lincoln, assured
witness that every trader was paying roy
atty to Belknap and his friends, with the ex-
ception Of himself, and he had no need Of
paying any, because his brother was chair
man Of the House military committee. Loud
laughter. The reason given for the execu-
tive proclsmstions extending the Sioux re-
servstions was that the Indians would not
