The Times says n of its representa-
tives had an interview yesterday with Gee
Gam, q Chinaman who is interested in the
Advancement of Cinnamon. He believes
they are steadily decreasing in numbers in
this country. owing to the hostility OF the
majority Of the people of the Pacific coast.
Hundreds conn here each spring, but
thousands return TO Asia each fall. In his
opinion, the emigrants now moving to the
United States are very much superior.
morally and intellectually, to the earlier
arrivals. There are now about 500 Chinese
families in the United States, the women
OF which are v~irtuous and industrious.
Abandoned and vicious females are not so
Numerous as formerly, and in thec course
Of a few years will disappear altogether.
Gee Gam thinks the only thing the Chinese
need to make them respected citizens, is the
ballot. They would all vote the Republican
ticket. and il permitted to participate IN
the next National Convention of that party,
would support Grant. whom they look
upon as second only to Confucius in wis
dom.

that could be squeezed out of it, and then.
when the Government should demand pay
ment, according to the law. surrender the
property and tell the Government to help
itself. Mr.. Thurman put . stop to this
little bit Of business. II is unfortunate for
the Tribune that its malicious assault upon
Mr.. Thurman should give ~thoughtless and
worldIy-minded persons an opportunity to
repeat the story about the close relation

Colorado Indian War.

The following dispatch has been re
ceived from Los Pinos, dated the Gath in
slant:
We have inst arrived from the Indian
camp on Plateau creek. TIE women and
children are safe at Chief Ouray's house,
nine miles below. They stood the journey
we'll. and Mrs. Meeker has improved in
health every day since we started. We
left on the morning OF the 22d. The In
dams seemed unwilling for us to leave I'M
til they learned what success Gen. Adams
had in stopping the further advance of
Merritt's command. Meeker's papers were
burned. and what money Mrs. Meeker had
was taken from her by Douglas. The in
tention was to kill the women and children,
as the windows Of the room in which they
first took refuge were riddled with bullets
the instant after they had left 1t for a
more secure place in the milk room. Mrs.
Meeker thinks that Susan, the squaw wife
Of Chief johnson and sister of Ouray. did
more than all others to save their lives.
She was as kind to them as . mother, and
their parting was very touching. Jacks
band fought the troops and Douglas men
killed the agent and his employees. Agent
Meeker was killed by Antelope and Wau-
patily. Mrs. Meeker was shot at while
running from the house and attempting 10
hide in the sagebrush. The ball passed
through her dress and made a slight flesh
wound in her thigh, about four inches long.
The arrangements for a fight with Merritts
command were most complete. Two hun
dred Arapahoes had joined Jack. as did
many Others from the neighboring tribes,
and had it not been for the timely arrival
Of Ouray's order 10 cease fighting the
name of Merritt and his command would
have passed Into history by the side OF
Custer, and with the same epitaph-anni-
| hilat-d by Indians. The outbreak may be
attributed to repeated changes and lessen
ing of the amount OF rations issued TO the
Indians, and plenty Of bad whisky fur
| nished by the ranchers. Major Pollock is
here, doing all in his power to make the
| ladies comfortable, and looking after the
interests of the Department in general
