WAsHISGToN Nov 19.-Commssioner Hayt does
not share the apprehensons which are entertained
with regard TO union of all the Utes for hostile
purposes. although he says the outlook for quiet
solution of the Ute problem is not rs promising as
il seemed a few days ago. lie says there is one
powerful influence which the Los Pinos Ctes at
least are Enlightened enough to appreciate. and
which will probably be strong enough TO restrain
them and all Others, except those who have already
engaged in hostlIties.
By becoming hostile TO the Government the In
dams forfeit all their treaty rights. The Utes alto
gether possess nearly 12000,000 acres of valuable
land in Colorado, from which they will be driven If
they do not remain at peace. Commissioner llayt
expects thai General Adams Will make "A formal de-
