OMAHA, Neb, Oct. IL, 1878.
The first telegram since sunday was received hero
to-day from Colonel Thornburgh's expedition which

TRUE CAUSES OF THE TROUBLE.
The Indian Commission arrived hcre last night,
and to-day examined Adjutant General Will
Jams and Lieutenant J. NJ. Lee, late agent
for the Spotted Tail Indians They are examining
General Crook tonight. Members OF the committee
state privately that the testimony shows more clearly
what treatment the Indlans received than
any before takon. Williams gave a concise statement
OF the present and past relations OF the army and
indians from March 1877. to Augus, 1875. and SUPER
intended their removal TO tho Missouri He produced
indisputabls proof OIL agents representing them in
1875 a. more .nan twice their actual number and Of
frauds and outrages without end.
A NATIONAL DISGRACE.
Details OF the orceu march OF tho Indians, with
their women and children, 800 miles to the ssouri,
show that all descriptions heretofore but
hnt at its horrors. Leo told the Senator'S
that the outrage oi that winter romovai
without parallel IN history. He gave many Instances
Of the government breaking It's promises, and said
that was the only cause OF the pres
cnt trouble with tho Indians. He said that
ESQ families are ANXIOUS TO work; and
they would In lew years be self-supperting.
Hc said tnat the Indians tno Missouri verc
constantly raided by horse thieves and
smuggiers and Kept exasperatsd Lee referred
to memoranda and gave figures and datcs Tor every
thug he stated. The testimony VI Crook, Williams
Lee forms complete history OF tho governments

the last lew years, and is most bumliating rsvola-
