The annual reports Of the secretary of the interior
and Of the commissioner of Indian affairs, present
an elaborate account Of the present condition of the
Indian tribes and of. that branch of the public ser
vice which ministers to their interests While the
conduct Of the Indians generally has been orderly
aud their relations with their neighbors friendly md
peaceful two local disturbances have occurred which
were deplorable in their character but remained hap
PLY confined to comparatively small number of
Indians. The discomfort. among the Bannocks,
which led first to some acts Of violence on the part
Of some members Of the tribe and finally to the out
break, appears to have been caused by an in
ls,ifaciency Of food on the reservation and
this :. insufacency to have been owing to
the ihad equacyf of the appropriations made by
Congress to the wants Of the Indians at time when
the Indians were prevented from supplying the deli
cheney by hunting After an arduous pursuit by the

ton and the larger part Of them surrendered tlle

The other case Of disturbance was that Of band Of
Northern Cheyennes who suddenly left their reser-
through the states Of Kansas and Nebraska, in the
directions Of their old hunting grounds, committing
murders and other crimes on their way. From docu-
the interior Il appears that this disorderly band
as fully supplied with the necessaries Of lfesas the
400 other Indians who remained quietly ION their
reservation, and that the disturbance WAS caused by
mon Of restless and mischievous disposition among
the Indians themselves. Almost the whole of the
band have surrendered to the military authorities,
