white men married INTO the tribe to
live with them always, and that it will
not be possible to send them away
any time. Whenever yoa have set a
bound TO our reservation you make
laws We should no 20 beyond them,
and We wish You To give SIS each year

He wished the white mrn who are liv-
ing among the BruieS and married to
Ogallalah women 10 eoine and live
with him. He was willing to- sign the
papers the Commission had brought
here OH condition that while the young
men are gone to the Indian country
those who staid should be fed. and
that the Commission should see 10 it
that rations are brought here until
spring, and he wanted annuity goods
issued to them before the end of the
present new noon, as the weather viii
soon he cold. You have forbidden us
TO hunt buffalo. He understood there
was SD each 10 be given them yet in
addition to $500 they had already re
ceived for hunting privileges in Ne
brasks. When the agency was estai-
lished here they had "A right To go and
hunt, but he understood that when the
new agency WAS established they
would be deprived of the righGto hunt.
and he wanted an annuity of SO a
head in place of it.
Bishop Whipple, of the Post Com
mission, replied that with reference to
the things he asked for, they are all
and more provided for in the paper
they are asked to sign. This Commits
sion will use all their power to secure
rations for them through the winter,
and he himself would promise to 90 to
the Great Council at Washington and
to do all he could in behalf of their
people. With reference TO annuity
goods, the Commission could not say
what time they would get here. The
Commissioner of Indian Affairs had
gone to New York to purchase them;
they might now be on the way, and
the Commission would write a letter
to-day about the matter. As for white
men marrying into the tribe, they
would not be interfered with, but white
men who came here to stay a few days
and do the Indians injury would not
be allowed to stay.
Little Wound then said he wanted
the Commission to make haste to lay
the matter before the Great Council,
and the Indians themselves desired to
90 to Washington to see the Great
Father; also they wished a copy of
everything said here given them, so
they could take it to Washington, so
there can be no mistake.
Col. Boone said the Commission rad
no right to change the paper presented
them. He mas glad they had shown
interest in half-breed children. A full
copy of all said should be given them
and the paper presented for them to
sign as soon as The secretary could
make it out.
Bishop Whipple said for them to Sc
icct the Indians they wished to sign
the treaty, and it would be presented
them i'm the afternoon. In the ean
time provision for a feast would be
given them.
Little Wound said the Commission
had said nothing about the additional
S25, 900 promised them for hunting
rights, to which Judge Gaylord replied
that the President had tried to get it
for them last winter but could not.
The Commission would do all they
could this winter to cur them that
money, but could not promise them
any money certain.
The Indians were then informed that
the Commission wanted the chief and
two head-men of each band selected 10
sign the treaty at 3 O'Clock this after
noon. The treaty may be considered
conSummated.

Preparing for War.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 81.
General Howard, in command of the
Department of Oregon, arrived here to-
day to endeavor to adjust the difficulty
with the Nez Perces Indians, which
threatens to result in a general Indian
war on that frontier. These Indians
claim that the promises made to them
by the Modoc Commissioners Meacham,
to h effect that a certain valley with
its salmon fisheries should be reserved
to them free, from white men, have been
broken. Through the influence Of the
Governor of Oregon and the lale Sec
rotary Delano, this valley was opened
for settlement, and the whites have
crowded in there and have threatened
to drive the Indians out. One Indian
was recently murdered by white men,
and both parties are now arning.
Howard is of the opinion that a Com
mission Of civilians and army officers
could adjust the difficulty and prevent
a war which would cost the Govern
ment at least ten million dollars. The
Interior Department authorities seem
to oppose General Towards plan, and
it will be submitted to the Adjutant
General of the army.
