WASHINGTON, Oct. /,

about the business that brought you here, in
addition to what said to you last week. You
have spoken about places where you wish to
have your agencies. I am glad you would be
satisfied to have agencies on the reservations
allotted to you; but told you it was too late in
the season to change your present agencies, and
1t Is too late to move your supplies to the places
you have named. Winter will soon come on,
the streams be frozen up. and therefore no
movement Of supplies can be made. We wish
you to help your people to remove near your
supplies, and General Crook will assist you to
| do 80. Next spring places can be selected near
White river, that will suit you; and now as to
the things you have asked for: You want
trunks, overcoats and money. The Great Coun.
Gil of my nation has put money and property
for you in charge Of the Secretary of the Inte-
| rior, and he can give you whatever the Great
Council has authorized him to give you, and
think he can satisfy you. This is the end Of
our grand council. I am glad you came. Let
me advise you to move as near your supplies as
you can, and next spring you can 60 to your
reservations. I am glad that you are satisfied
with White river. / hope you will all reach
your homes safely and in good health. Before
you go, the Secretary will give you as many of
the things you have asked for as he can; and
now will be glad to shake hands with each
one Of you and wish you we'll"
The Indians then shook hands with the Presi.
dent and the Secretary Of the Interior, appear.
ing to be satisfied with the remarks Of the Presi,
dent. They will leave hero about Wednesday
for their home.
1t Is understood that requisition will be
here this week for the arrest Of Senator PAtter.
son, of South Carolina. He will probably fall
back on his constitutional privilege as Sen.
ator, to defy the requistion.
New York, Oct. J..
Letters to the World from the City of Mexico
say the opinion becomes very general there that
trouble between the United States and Mexico
soon is probable. The recently pending nego.
tistions for the recognition Of the Diaz Govern.
ment by the United States are said to have been
suspended because American Minister Foster
demanded as basis of arrangement the per-
mission by treaty for American troops to cross
the Rio Grsnde after marauders, and the ex.
emption OF American residents in Mexico from
forced loans.
The Committee Of Fifty appointed on satur-
day at meeting Of prominent Republicans in
the Union L ague club met to night, to arrange
for the calling OF mass meeting to endorse
President Hayes administration and to take
measures on the recent action Of the Republi.
can State Convention ut Rochester.
GALVESTON. Oct. /.
No collision is reported yet from the rio
Grande, But 1t is thought that Bullt, and
shafter have fought with the Indians on Mexi.
can soil. shsfter has been reinforced and eight
companies are now in Mexico. General Falson,
commanding the Mexicans at Piedros Negras,
has ordered his officers to keep ON the trail Of
the Americans until they recross the river.
Fort CLAnKE, Texas, Oct. /.

terday with 600 men and two Calling guns to
extricate Captain Bulls from his position. One
thousand Me1icans left Piedras Negras and
saragossa Vlela Nueva to-day Their destination
is unknown.
LONDON Oct. /.
Another week shows little change at the seat
OF war. As the capture of Richmond was in
dispensible to the collapse Of the rebellion, 80
the capture of Plevna appears to be indispen-
sible TO the success Of the Russian campaign,
and while the Russian officers who stubbornly
maintain its seige, confident that it will yet fall
into their hands. the better opinion is that this
result must follow from Turkish weakness
rather than Russian strength. There are many
indications that tho Sultan has already put
forth his supreme effort and has nothing
further In reserve. and yet the three armies
have never been able to take the offensive at
the same time and to crush the invaders. The
Turkish plan Of the campaign has utterly failed
Of execution. and its hour OF success 10 now
believed to have passed. Bulgaria is utterly
exhausted OF army supplies. This is clearly
disclosed by the retreat of Mehemet Ali beyond
the Black LON for want Of supplies. II this Is
his condition, notwithstanding his nearness to
| the great depots of Shumls and Rustchuk. and
his control Of the Dwina and Danube railroad,
Suleiman and Osman Pasha must be in still
worse straits. Russia evidently grasps the situ-
alton and will hold hard to Its present military
positions in expectation Of the sudden collapse
| OF an enemy whose resources are already "
strained that the catastrophe hoped for may oc'
cur at any hour.

The action Of the Porte in sending Bashi
Bazourks to Thesssly Ia having an iDfamma-
tory effect, and Greece Is certain, sooner or
later, to be driven into the war. Servian inter.
vention Is only question Of time. The un-
essiness and agitation in Hungary is almost
sure to result in action which will embroil the
Austro Hungarian Cove rnment with Russia
germany Ia excited over the Turkish atrocities
and the entire futility of the representation
made In the past. The opinion il gaining
ground that II diplomacy extends the war this
fall, 1t will be almost sure to include all Europe
The impression is gaini.g ground that diplo.
macy is powsrless, and England is doomed tc
final participation in the conflict,
