Department Notes.

WASHINGTON, July 10.-The Com
missioner of Internal Revenue issued
a circular modifying and supple
menting circular Nc. 259 as follows:
In view Of the fact that there was no
specific appropriation made by Con-
gress last session to meet the expense
of cancellation and return after the
redemption of stamps imprinted on
checks, drafts. etc. it becomes nee
essary to inform the public that such
drafts, checks and stamps will not be
received for cancellation and return
for redemption after the 31st of July.
All stamps imprinted upon drafts,
checks, etc received for redemption
after that date, if redeemed, will be
destroyed, together with drafts or
checks of the Treasury Department.
The department yesterday and to-
day issued warrants for the payment
of $l4, GOO, 900 on accouLt of army and
navy pensions for the fiscal year end
ed June 30, 1888.
The Secretary of the Treasury has
referred to the Court Of Claims the
case of Benjamine p. Runkle against
the United States-a claim for pay as
a retired army officer. The case of
Florine Austin, administrative of the
estate of Sterling S. Austin, against
the United States, has also been filed
in the Court of Claims under a spe-
cial act of Congress. This is a claim
for 1857, 500 for cotton seized during
the rebellion.
The semi-weekly miner. [volume] (Butte, Mont.) 1882-1886, 1883-07-11
THE APACHES.

The war and interior departments
have at last arrived at an agreement
concerning the disposition Of the
Apaches captured by General Crook.
They are to be guarded and protected
ut some point on the San Carlos res
ervation by United States troops, but
not at the agency without the con-
sent of the agent. AS Wilcox is bit
terly opposed to the Apaches being
turned loose among his wards, they
will probably be cooped up at some
point remote from the agency build
ings. 1t is evident this disposition of
the Apaches is made in Difference to
the wishes of General Crook, and
to enable him to keep his
promise made to them that they
should be placed upon the San Car
los reservation, and not be taken out
Of that country. This settles the
Apache question for the present.
Whether those Indians will quietly
remain under military surveillance
for any length of time is a question
which time alone can answer. It is
not likely, however, their patience
will be subjected to a crucial test as
disposition of them is only tenn
or as the dispatches say, "un-
til further orders" The first sign of
characterization or u~neasiness on the
part of the prisoners will DOUBTLESS be
followed by their removal to the In
dian Territory or to some other equal
y remote place from their old haunts. |

WESTWARD TRAVEL.

The unusual attractions which are
presented in the West this season
will command the presence of many
eastern visitors. The mining and
industrial. exposition at Santa Fe was
opened on the I'd inst. The whole
Rocky Mountain region is included
in the enterprise, and the quaint
buildings which have been erected
for the exposition will contain a dis
play to excite much curiosity. There
can be no doubt that Santa Fe is
more than 3S3 years old. for long be-
fore its settlement by Spaniards it
was an Indian pueblo, and relics of
its successive stages of development
Will constitute the most interesting
part of the display to visitors from
from the East. This exposition closes
August Sd proxime. Then there il
the Denver exposition, which opens
the 18th inst, and continues until
October. No doubt large numbers of
Eastern tourists will take in both
these attractions. The Yellowstone
Park will also command
the presence of thousands there this
season. This is an attraction which
10 always open and never closes. The
Indications are that the present sea-
son will witness q larger westward
travel than mas ever been seen.
