Indian Chiefs.
WASHINGTON, January Sd. = Secretary
Schurz, at late hour last night, received a
telegram from General Hatch, dated at Lake
City. 1t reports that he has brought several
Indian chiefs from the reservation to Lake
City with him that they are held by him
for the purpose of preventing any demonstra-
tion by the young men of the tribe that he
desires to take them to the military camp at
Garland, and, if deemed advisable, to send
one of them back to see whether surrender
still be effected. He expresses the
hope that this may yet be accomplished. The
dispatch also refers to the subject of rations,
but does not clear up the uncertainty in his
former dispatches to the Department. Secre-
tary Schurz Immediately replied to thadis-
patch by telegraph, requesting information
upon the following points: Whether the
White River Utes offered for surrender are
still in Ouray's power, or whether they have
been released also, what chiefs are with Cen
eral Hatch, and of what bands also, whether
there Is any prospect of General Hatch get
ting into his possession Chief Douglass and
the son of Douglass, and other culprits Of
Importance, who were recently offered for
surrender. His proposition to take the In
dians now with him to Camp Garland is ap-
proved and as he expresses hope that the
complete surrender may still be accomplished,
he is requested to say what, in his opinion,
can be done by the direction of Washington
authorities to aid him. In conclusion, Secre-
tary Schugz telegraphs that he will send to
General Hatch a dispatch to be read to the
Indian delegation and also to the Indians al
their reservation, Immediately after his
answer to the foregoing inquiries shall have
been received here.
