Indian ARentn in Council.

On invitation of Colonel Mcacham, the vari-
Gus Indian agents sojourning in the city met
in the parlors Of DIR. Bland, No. 5l4 Thir.
toenth street. last night aud spent somo hours
In comparing notes. There were ten agents,
four post traders, and four Indians present, be-
sides number Of Others ladies and gentlemen,
who came as spectators, and a very interesting
council was held. The unanimous opinion
was expressed that Indians civilize readily
under proper treatment. The chief obstacle
to progress is in the fact that the Government
has so uniformly failed TO keep its treaties
with the Indians that thoy have lost faith In
its promises, and the only thing that can re-
store confidence is TO secure TO them their
homes by bona fde titles to lands set apart for
them. General Millroy said that his Indians
were constantly asking for papers to their
lands like white men have. chorus of voices
responded That Is just what my Indians ask
for saying, We have no heart to make homes,
unless sure that we are to bo allowed to keep
them permanently"

the petitioner S3012.25 for contempt Of court,
and in default he was sentenced to imprison.
ment in the District Jail until the further
order of the court. Subsequently \ writ of
Ld5eas corpus was sued out before Justice Hum
phreys, who, after the hearing rcmandcd the
reator to Jail, and from this decision the appeal
was taken.
Messrs William A. Cook aud c. C. Cole ap.
peared for the petitioner, Messrs. Edwards and
Barnard for the warden, and W. II. Brown for
the heir.
The petition was read and showed that Marsh
was appointed guardian to the heirs of w. II.
Tanning; that one of said heirs died in 1872,
and the other had reached the age Of maturity;
that he was cited to eppaar before the Probate
Court and was there fined S3,0l2 ,the amount
alleged to have been due from him); that
owing to unfortunate business transactions, ho
was unable to pay the said sum, aud that his
imprisonment is virtually imprisonment for
debt.
After hearing partial argument the court
held a consultation, sending for the papers,

pose to sit in review as q court of error to de-

There was no such appeal IN the present case.

Joseph Bailey, colored man In the employ
Of Mr., $. Bsn2ingcr, junk-dealer, on Louisi-
ana avenue, between Ninth AM Tenth streets
northwest, wa1 arrested by Odieor Lanlers
yesterday afternoon on charge of stealing
number of callskins from his employer. At
the time Of his arrest the prison er had several
skins IN his possession, which were identified
by Mr.. Ben2nger as his property. The cul-
prit was taken to the Fifth Precinct Station
and locked up fora hcarins before Judge Smell.
Soon after being locked up he sent for Mr., Beu-
Finger aud made a statement to the effect that
Henry Rose and John Cogbill, two others Of Mr..
Bcnzingers employees, and himself had been
Systematically r0bbing their employer Of skins
since last October AMI selling them to a man
named Dreirus, who keeps junk-store at the
corner Of Tenth aud G Streets and who offered
to pay them fifty cents apiece for all the skins
they brought to him from Mr.. Ben2ngors
store. Bailey and Cngbll were in the hubi t
of taking the skins around 10 Dreifus' place
and Rose always received the money.
Mr.. Benzinger, who has frequently missed
these goods, thought the thelts were being
committed during the night, and has watched
his store several times after locking up 10 see
If he could discover the perpetrators. Yestcr-
day afternoon he saw Bailey throw a bag into
the wagon, aud upon investigation found that
1t contained two caliskins, which discovery
led to the arrest. He estimates his loss since
last October at about 81 900, as the skins taken
were worth Sl,25 each. lie says he will pros
| ccute Dreilus for receiving stolen goods. The
developments In the case have created c0nsid-
cradle excitement among the iunk.dealers,
| several Of whom have already interested them
