Special TO the Star.
CAMP ROBINSON, Jan. 17.-There are sad
scenes among the captive Indians, and they
suffer in silence. Near the prison door
squaw of sixty years lay in the throes OF
death, insensib,e, and pierced in seven diff
ferent places with bullets, while within five
feet of the expiring woman female child
aged seven was combing and plating the
hair of her orphaned sister, and singing in
thoughtful hum some Indian lullaby
strain.
At Pine Ridge Council was held and the
Sioux Indians under Red Cloud, through
their chiefs, demand that the Sioux women
now wounded and captive, be delivered to
them to be taken care of, for the reason
that their male relatives have all been
killed by the troops. This is regarded as
ominous.
OMAHA, Jan. 17.-General Crook is re-
ported as saying that the blunder, in a mil
itary sense, was in the failure of Captain
VESSEL to barrcade the building in which
the. Cheyennes were imprisoned, SO as to
make their escape impossible.
New YoRK, Jan. 1.-THE Herald says the
late massacre became necessity from the
moment when the Cheyenne prisoners at
tempted to escape, but there was no neces-
sty for permitting the attempt. Is there to
be no end to such butcheries?

leo on account of the award of the
Mexican Claims Commission, as
he thinks that will not exceed the
measure of real damages. If the
matter Is investigated by Congress,
the Mexican Government, it Is I'M
derstood, will endeavor to prove
that the claim is wholly a fraud,
and never bad a just basis. II
that be proved, Congress will be
compelled to set tho whole matter
aside. This, it is claimed, will
place the Secretary of State in the
rather awkward position of having
paid part of a claim which, upon
investigation by Congress, Mt his
own recommendation was found to
be entirely fraudulent. In that
event the honor of the United
States, about which Evarts has
said so much, would demand that
even the distributive part of the
money now paid be returned to
Mexico. 1t may, therefore, come
to pass that Congress will be forced
to make an appropriation to cover
the Secretary's mistake, indemni-
flying Mexico and protect the hon
or of this government.
