Indian Policy OF the New Secretary OF
tho Interior.
New YORK, April 23i.-The TyJJune's
Washington special says: Teller said to a
correspondent yesterday that he should pro-
ceed cautiously in the management of Indian

of policy. He does not favor the immediate
disruption of tribal relations, even if it were

tlement upon farm lands in severalty when
der the success of such plan probable
but that, he says, is not yet.
One thing which he hopes to see accomplished
during his administration he believes prom.
ises good results. He wishes to have the
reservation system supplsnted by system of
patenting lands to the Indians by tribes, so
that while possessing lands in common
they may have the same title to them as
would be secured for CON munity of white
men who should purchase aud pay for lands
in common. Under the present system, the
Indian tribes are moved about for
one reason or another, and this, the
Secretary thinks, is no: only cruelty to the
Indians, but productive of mischief to their
neighbors. The tribes which are far enough
advanced, he thinks, should be taught the ru-
porting as soon as possible. The nomads
should be supplied with cattle, that they may
become herders. Referring to the outbreak
of the Apaches, the Secretary said they. as
we'll as all other wild tribes, should be dis
arnei. If there is no law by which this
can be done, one should be passed. sol
