WASHINGTON October l5th.-The Sioux Chiefs
appeared at the Interior Department today
Secretary Villas assured the Indians that he was
glad to see them, and requested that they pro-
ceed to state thS ObjectI us 10 the new Sioux
Reservation. John Grass said:
THE first thing l want to mention is the
treaty of 1865 and ask you 10 promptly carry
out the obligations of that treaty aud pay us
whatever righttully belongs to us. And then
the Black Hills treaty OF l376-why is it that we
are not paid what is dne us under these
treaties?"
Grass produced map of Dakota, and pointing
out the sioux Reservation said: Its western
BOUNDARY line should be long way west from
the present location. We want 81 . per acre,
Just Whas the Government sells its lands for.
We are in no hurry 10 dispose of our lands BY
the treaty OF 1858 you promised us schools and
teachers Tor twenty years, and these twenty
years have gone by and we have had schools
only within the last ten years.
Re stated that all the lands of the reservation
should be classed as grazing lands, thus en-
abling those entitled to 100 acres 10 get it, He
said that instead of the head OF a family gettirg
double the amount of land given to women and
children, the latter ought TO have fully as much
or more, than their fathers. The old men would
soon die, and therefore aid not need so much
land but the your ones had their way to make.
And then he wanted il distinctly understood
that when the young people married the woman
should not lose her land.
Mad Bear spoke of the failure of the Govern
ment to keep the treaties OF 1868 anG 1876. aad
asked how they should be expected to enter into
still other agreements, when the o.d ones had
never been fulfilled.
| White Ghost aud Drifting Goose, both Of Crow
Creek, made long speeches in opposition to the
| bill, and stated that the measure had been
! adopted to brighten the Indians into signing
Members of the Commission had used harsh
/ language toward the Indians.
| When the Indians finished speaking the Sec
retary said that all the speeches had been
| faithfully written down, and would be laid be-
| fore the President, who would give careful con-
| sideration to the matter Whatever decision
was reached, the Secretary added, would be
announced to them on Wednesday, He hoped

whether they would approve or disapprove of

SAN FRANCISCO, October 15th.-Judge Sawyer,
of the United states Circuit Court. to-day rem
dered his decision sustaining the constitution
ality OF the Scott Exclusion Act. Judge Hoff-
man concurred. The Court holds that the peti-
tioners for writs of haheas corpus are not enti-
tied TO be landed. One of them held a return
certificate, the other claimed to be prior resi-
dent, both contended that the new law did not
apply TO them, because they were on the high
seas when 1t was passed. The Court holds that the
Act OF Octoberl 1888, was intended to exclude
all Chinese laborers from entryfrom and after
that date, and to void all certificates then out.
The language is specific and admits of no doubt
as to its meaning. and exeepts none, neither
certificate men nor prior residents nor those en-
route when the Act passed. 1t is no concern of
the Courts that the law works hardshipS The
Courts do not make the law, aud cannot take
out OF 1t It's express commands. Congress in
tended no exceptions to its order and il took all
the responsibility. The law is constitutional
for 1t does not divest any one of an indefesable
certificate TO return is not contract but
merely an instrument of evidence A contract
is meeting OF two minds on the terms of an

quite another. Congress has the right to legis-
