WASHINGTON, June 25.-The Cabinet to-
day discussed the omission in the sundry
civil bill relating to the Hot Springs reser-
walton. The debate resulted in the sending
OF letter by the Secretary Of the Interior
to the late commissioners directing them to
take charge OF the records OF their work
and to proceed to consider the testimony in
all the cases in which testimony was taken
in relation to the rights OF claimants to any
part OF the Hot Springs reservation, and
perform such work as will facilitate the
early adjustment Of such claims, and report
what they think necessary for the protection
OF the rights of all parties upon said reser-
walton, rs well as the interests OF the Gov
ernment. The commissioners will trust to
the next session Of Congress to compensate
them for their services. In view OF the fact
that fears are entertained that serious diff
culties may arise between the conflicting
complainants, the commissioners are asked
to begin their work rs early as possible.
The Postmaster-General submitted tele-
grams to the Cabinet showing that the In
dams are interfering with the mails in the
Northwest.
THE INDIAN BUREAU AND WAR DEPARTMENT.
WASHINGTON, June 25.-The Commission
