Agent L. Lewynn telegraphs the CON-
missioner OF Indian affairs that in view
of the failure of the congressional appro-
priations for subslstlng the Apaches, and
in view of the fact that the beef and flour
On hand will only last until about July 1,
and that these Indians have no means of
subsisting themselves, it seems to me that
it will be policy to transfer them to the
war department who should take charge
of them before starvation compels them
to commit depredations which naturally
leads to great loss of life and destruction
of valuable property. AS soon as supplies
are cut off the military will have to act.
Therefore think it advisable for the
troops to take charge Of the Apaches at
once. Nothing short of force can compel
them to remain on the reservation and
starve. The action Of congress in this
matter simply means to the Apaches ex-
termination.
