THE CHEYENNE DETECTION.

Al The military headquarters ~ Chicago,
several interesting documents have been re-
ceivei bearing upon the Cheyenne lndi RI
troubles. The first is Tom General Pope,
wha Gays that the force oi cavalry is too
small to attend 10 the seceders, and that sll
the military are poorly armed with carbints
a. assinst tie Indians rides. The
cavalry are kept busy a, ForI Sili and Reno.
lie urges that more forces are esseuiia. TO
securing peace on the border.
Al tie Cheyenne Indian Agency he learns
there are enormous Deficiencies in Indiin
supplies, as shown by the report of John
ID. Miles, agent at the Cheyenne and ARR
pahoe agency. The letter ssys the primary
causes OF the Cheyeanes leaving their RISER
walton are that the daily rarions promised
them pounds, ha,f pound flour or corn
and Jour pounds coffee. eight pounds spssr
and thiee pounds beans to each hundred ra-
uons, have eniy been partially carried out,
the supplies received being iB.utiicient
None of the stock aud aid in building the
houses, which was promised, has been atior-
ded them. Another cause OF the detection
was thSt they ohjec; to the manler of ssrv-
ing their rations The northern Cheytnnss
frs, Withdrew and ali efforts to induce them
TO return peaoeabiy have been unsvaiiine.
Gen. Pope suggests that the lndian Com.
mission may in the light OF these facts find
il Necessary 10 modify his view OF afiairs al
the sgency.
Ben Clarke, an old scout, reports that
Ches ennts lave been Killed in encoaa-
tiers with the troops, add that the ssccders
intend to work north, and to propose fell
settlement at FORK ksosh. but if this is not
permitted they will join Sitting Bull.
