INDIANS BEaeING FOE FOOD.
Attention Called TO the Necessity Of
Ennh and HnIinnn.

Fort BUFoRD, OAK, Oct. 25.-Reports by
courier from the Cheyenne reservation, rs
miles south, are to the effect that unless aid
ts soon extended to them by the govern
ment, great numbers Of the Cheyennes will
die OF starvation. The indians are insufii.
ciently rationed and clothed and the lack
Of sufficient food has resulted In much sick
ness, especially among the older members
OF the tribe, who are unable to go out in
search OF food. The young bucks, owing
to the scarcity of game, are unable to sup
ply the wants OF the sick and helpless and
are leaving them to die. All Of these In
dians should receive rRtions from the
Bsrthod agency on the west bank OF the
Missouri and south Of the fort. Within the
last month numerous bands OF Oheyennes,
20 or 80 IN number and comprising bucks,
women aud children, have come to Fort
Buford begging for food to keep them alive.
Forts Buford and Keogh are constantly
besieged by these bands Of the starving
Indians and Colonel Robert Orofton, COM
mandaut at Fort Butord, notified the war
department Of the condition OF affairs. In
his report Colonel Crotron calls attention to
imperative necessity OF at once supplying
the Indians with rations and clothing as
they are In abject want and suffering.
