RECALLING INDIANS.

On representations made to Agent Roman
that Indians from the Jocko reservation
were camped on the deer trails of the Rocky
mountain range, in the Biackfoot country,
ruthlessly slaughtering large game and be
having badly toward white residents, the
Agent sent runners ordering the indians to
return TO the reservation. As matter Of
fact the Agent can only exercise "moral sua-
sion," or rather ration suasion over these
wandering wards. The Ponca Indians case,
tried In Omaha, decided that, and 1t has not
been reversed that VIC have noticed. An
Agent cannot, as matter of legal fact, COM
pei an Indian not accused or convicted of
crime to remain on the reservation, as that
would be practically depriving him of the
personal liberty to which he Is entitled
under the Constitution. The Agent, though,
can make 1t inconvenient for annuity In
dams to disregard his wishes, and If Indians
violate the game laws or commit other dep
relations, they are amenable, as are other
people. Within the past year or two some
of the Jocko Indians have behaved badly In
this part of Montana, and the fact that they
travel In bands and are liable to appear in
neighborbood In overwhelming force at any
time, terrorizes isolated settlers and has pre-
vented legal complaints that should have
been made. We know Major Roman under
stands all this and will do all he can, when
advised, to right or redress wrong, and 1t
should also be borne in mind that unless
accused and arrested for violation Of law, 1t
is altogether moral pressure that compels
IN Indian to remain on his reservation.
Agent Roman Is therefore entitled to more
credi: than seems TO lie conceded him in this
matter.

A note from Ubet, Oct. 12th to the River
Press, says: "Capt. Garveys troop Of the LIST
Cavalry passed through here this morning
on their way to Hopley's creek, about twelve
miles beyond the gap. Information was re.
ceived by the way of Fort Custer that Pie.

An Absconding Consul.

NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE Suns WASH
ington has the following details Of the doings
of Consul Bedford, At the Fiji Islands: Bel
ford is q brother of Congressman Bedford, Of
Colorado. Bedford absconded per schooner
"Saucy Lass" to Samoa on Aug. 10th, leav-
ing many mourning creditors. The Union
Bank of Australia Is . heavy creditor, hav.
ing cashed drafts drawn by Belford on the
Department Of State Is well as upon his
relatives. 1t seems, also, that he attempted
TO Dust the accredited deputy commercial
agent, aud to appoint In his stead man
named Brewer. Since Belford's departure
from Fiji, . draft from his father, Endorsed
by Brewer, has been protested, and Brewer
finds himself compelled to pay 1t. Belford
left debts innumerable, which amount to
thousands Of dollars in the aggregate. Be-
sides he Is reported to have sold goods con-
signed to him and spent the money for his
own benefit. The effect Of Belford's course
promises to be. disastrous to future United
States Consuls at Pacific stations, a. the
banks will no longer cash drafts, and In con-
sequence months must pass before they can
receive returns from the State Department.

Chinese Going East.

New YORK, Oct. ia Tribuae's Pitts.
burg special says: For thirty days Mongo-
lians have been passing through this city In
parties Of from five to twenty Oh their way
from the violence of the West to the secu.
rity of the East. This morning half dozen
Cinnamon, oil Of the better class, arrived at
the Union Depot from Chicago, aud left q
few hours later for Philadelphia and New
York. A venerable looking man who seemed
to be commanding the rest Of the party told
reporter that he and his friends had left .
moro or less lucrative laundry business In
San jose and San Francisco because their
lives were threatened by men whose shirts
they washed. They all had little money
saved, and were going to live In Phiiadel-
phia and New York. 1t is roughly esti-
mated that over 500 Cinnamon passed
through Pittsburg in their fight from the
West since September Goth. On the other
hand. five per cent. Of those who were seized
with the panic have got over their frs. scare
and have gone back sgain. .#

The Wool Market.

NEW York, Oct. 1.-THE Journal of
Fabrics and Dry Goods Bulletin to-day
prints an elaborate report on the wool situa.
tion. Since August prices have advanced
Is to S3 per cent. In domestic woods from the
lowest point touched for many years. The
qualities chiefly affected were mediums and
low grades. The dependency Of the wool
men In Europe and Australia over the re-
suits Of the last London sales Is very great,
especially so in fine woods. Low Is the
prices ruled before In London sales, they
suffered decline as the sales progressed. The
principal support to the English marks.
came then from America. A cablegram Just
received from Australia states that auction
sales Of the new clip have opened st de-
cline Of from 3 to 10 per cent. With snch .
tone In the wool centers Of the world 1t is
useless to speculate on . continued rise, or
even the sustainment Of The present rise for
any long period.

MONTANA IMPROVEMENT CO.
Protests Against the Publication of the spe-
ciai Agents Reports.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE Montana I'M
provement Company appeared before Assist.
ant Secretary of the Interior jerks to-day,
through Mr.. John s. Blair, formerly Of the
Attorney Generals Office, its attorney, and
protested against giving out for publication
the reports of the special agents Of the land
Office until they had an opportunity of re-
buttipg the statements contained therein,
which reflected on the company. 1t was
asserted that the gentlemen composing the
Montana Improvement Company were hon
orable and upright men and would not be
guilty of the transactions which the special
agents charged them with. 1t was also
urged that the special agents had no right to
express an opinion as to the acts Of the men.
their only duty being to investigate the land
cases referred to them. Assistant Secretary
jerks, without considering the question Of
the publication Of the special agents. re-
ports, said if the company desired to estab-
lish their innocence of the charges made
against them he was willing to take the
testimony. There will be further hearing
within few days.

DELEGATE TooLE and the Associated
Press were both premature In the announce
ment that Col. Greene, Of Louisiana, had
been appointed Surveyor General to succeed
Gen. Harris. Surveyor General Harris was
Yesterday In receipt OF IN official letter from
the Department Of the Interior notifying
him that II was mistake that his successor
had been named, and that no step OF the
kind Is contemplated prior TO the date OF his
term Of service. On the 18th Of October
instant q vacancy will present, and the
President at that time will announce an
appointment. It 10 signifed, We believe,
that Mr.. Lamar's reported friend Greene ID
promised the place, and Il 10 probable that
he will succeed TO the ofiice. The letter OF
the Secretary puts different phase TO the
clse a telegrsphed by Mr.. Toole and the
Washington news agent. Had It been true,
a indicated from those sources, that Sur
yeyor. General Harris had been removed OF
suspended, inquiry would doubtless have
ensued 10 the Senate, and the successor thus
coming Into Office would probably enough
have had plenty OF trouble In passing the
ordeal of continuation. Az II turns out, nc
removal nor suspension has occurred, and
General Harris remains unTolested 10 thu
end Of the term for which he was commits
sioned.---Her0id, 18th.

servians Over the Border.

n LONDON, Oct. 16.-The Servians crossed
the Bulgarian frontier near Charkoi. They
are advancing toward Sofia, and are now
near Dragoman Pass. King Milan Is In
command. A panic prevails at Sofa. Four
battalions Of infantry have gone to defend
Dragoman Pass. They have with them
only two batteries of small field guns.
There is no heavy Bulgarian artillery nearer
10 the scene of the disturbance than that At
Sistova and Rustchuk. 1t Is expected that
Sofa will be captured by q coup de main.
Austria has warned King Milan that what
ever il the issue Of the present trouble IL
will be useless for him to expect support
from Austria. The railway companies in
Austria and Hungary and the Danube Nsvi-
CATION company have been notified to pre-
pare for the transportation of troops and mu-
nitions Of war.
ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 16.-The Journal
de So. Petersburg to-day, In commenting on
the Bulgarian question, shows signs of i'm
patience at the delay In settling the diff
Guilty, and says: "Russis will not submit 10
the dictation Of Karavelof, the Bulgarian
Prime Minister. II the warning Of the EN-
bassadors to Prince Alexander TO pacify
Ronmelia ct the risk Of losing the union
does not make Bulgaria return to reason,
the fresh conference, to assemble shortly,
will settle the difficulty on the same basis
- the starting point In the present course Of
ac:ion."

LAND OFFICE APPOINTMENTS.

A Washington dispatch Of October 10 an
nounces the appointment Of Samuel w.
Langhorne, Of Bozeman, Register Of the
Land Office at Helena, and Horatio ). How
ell, of Virginia City, Receiver of Public
Monies for the same. Aside from the fact
that the removal Of Messrs. Atkinson and
Burton, the present Register and Receiver,
who are unexceptionable officers, and whose
terms have not expired, is gross violation
of Cleveland's avowed civil service policy,
the appointments commend themselves, ex-
cept In one respect. The men are better
adapted for other offices. Mr.. Langhorne
would have made better Secretary for
Montana, and Capt. Howell is man Of too
much vitality and executive ability to
smother In 80 entirely clerical hole rs the
Recelvership. He is the only Union soldier
we know of who has received an appoint.

GOVERNOR HAUsER's REPORT.

We devote considerable space In this issue
TO presenting Governor Hauser's report OF
Montana to the Secretary Of Interior. II Is
excellent In the two features to which 1t Is
chiefly devoted-considerstio Of the Indian
reservation system and of silver. On these
questions be Is sound, and presents the cases
practically, incisively and earnestly. The
great Indian reservations, while there was
game TO protect on which the Indians might
subsist, bad some excuse for existence, but
now when the buffalo and other game II
gone, and the reservation indians live on
government rations, why should each OF
them have an hundred times the area OF
lands reserved for him that an American
citizen can secure. II the taxpayers OF
America have to provide subsistence for
these Indians, rs they do, there is no justice
or reason In holding out these enormous
tracts Of land ss Indian reservations. Give
them lands In severalty As It Ia we'll TO do;
subsist the decimated tribes a. we have to
do; but II their reservation lands are valu-
able for mining or agricultural purposes,
throw them open to people who will work
them. This will eventually be the inevita-
BILE result, and II Is best to commence now.
The Governor is equally sound in his
views on the silver question, and hits the
gold bugs hard by exposing the animus OF
their 6ght against silver coinage. 1t is not
new, but 1t Is good, that the Governor OF
Montana puts the matter In the form Of an
official report. If the United States, pro.
ducing annually nearly half the silver mined
in the world, will not stand by that indus
dry and insists on demonetiziDg the metal
while other non silver producing countries
carry, relatively, three or four times as much
silver coin as this country does, and we are
importing gold and exporting silver, 1t is
refreshing TO have the fact officially banged
In the face of q Congress nearly half OF
which seems TO be subservient to Wall
Street. We only regret that Governor
Hauser did not take occasion TO suggest that
if the present silver dollar is not saLisfac.
tory, 1t would be good idea to put dol.
lars worth of silver In 1t, and keep on max.
Ing them. II Is no benefit 10 the silver.
producing regions that the silver dollar does
not contain dollars worth Of silver, and
that fact Is the principal stock In trade Of
those who would stop its coinage.
1t wouldn't be q bad ide& for Delegate
Toole TO take Silver as the subject Of his
maiden speech in Congress, and strike q.
square from the shoulder as Governor
Hauser has done.
