DEPARTMENT OF ARIZONA.
Annual Report Submitted by Br'gadier.
General Grierson.

WASHINGTON, October 2Sth.-In the annual
report on the operations of the army in the De-
partment of Arizona, Brigadier-General Grier-
son, commanding, says: Now that Forts Nc
Dowell and Verde have been abandoned, with
view to their early transfer to the Interior
Department for Indian school purposes, the
authorities should consider the advisatility OF
number of Indians in the vicinity of the San
Carlos agency, by the removal of the Yuma and
Mojave Indians to these reservations The
keeping of so many Indians at San Carlos is
detrimental to their advancement, and tends to
a renewal of old feuds. The white men have
taken up nearly all the hunting and grazing
grounds of the peaceable Yavai Suppai Indians
in Cataract canyon, Arizona, and these Indians
have become exasperated to such degree that
trouble is likely 10 arise at any time" There
fore, Grierson recommends that the Black
from them by white men two years ago. be re-
stored. that their reservation be enlarged and
defined and their title made good.
The report says that the surveys have shown
that Railroad can be constructed throughout
the Grand canyon of the Colorado at q feasible
cost, and liberal encouragement should be
given by the Government to hasten its compile
tion and open that famous wonderland, now
beyond the reach of many.
Grierson disapproves of the proposition ma de
by an Indian Inspector to organize a regiment OF
at Forts Lowell, Grant aud Bayard says the
General, can be abandoned without detriment
to the service, and such OF the troops stationed
there as cannot be provided for in New Mexico
and Arizona may be removed elsewhere. The
post at Fort Union could be abandoned at once
by trans ieIrng the troops OF the cavalry to Fort
WiDgate. Company C, Tenth Infantry, to Foit

WHERE Is wHARTONe
This is the Question Many CoDfiding
Creditors Now Ask.

CHICAGO. October 2Sth.-The whereabouts of
W. S. Wharton, who has been engaged in the
money lending business in this city several
years, Is troubling a number of citizens, and
particularly the Chicago Trust and Savings
Bank and the United States Loan Company.
For over week Wharton has not been seen,
and his wife and creditors finally concluded
that he has left the city II is asserted that his
inde ebtedness will amount to $50 000, nearly S4e-
900 of which is due to the financial institutions
named above.
1t is asserted that Wharton frequently pur-
sued plan of douole dealing in hypothecating
notes made to him. When the note became
due. ii is asserted, that he was accustomed to
notify the signers that he could not carry it,
unles new one was made When this was
done he promised to destroy the old notes. but
instead of doing SO, would leave them with
the financial institution where he had placed
them and negotiate new one at smother place.
1t is also believed that Philadelphia people
will te interested in Whartons fight. 1t is as
serted that he, with another man bought sew
eral years ago the charter of defunct insur-
ance company of Philadelphia. wharton's
clerk said To-Day that he thought it was in this
and similar concerns that much of his employ
ers gains had been lost
President Tolman of the Chicago Trust and
Savings Bank says, however, but little was paid
Tor the charter. He thinks Columbia was one
OF three or four insurance companies in which
Wharton was interes ed and that all of these
were used TO catch premium payers who never
got anything out of the company but their poll

Stanton.
Grierson renews the recommendation that the
present military reservation at San Pedro. Cal.
oe enla' ged. as 1t is the most available place
lot harbor adjacent to Los Angeles The small,
poorly situated post st San Diego Cal, should
pc Sposed OF and suitable reservation OBJ
tanned without delay, in order that large post
may be permanently established at that import
ant seaport and facilities afforded for the proper
fortlhcation of Point Iona. The best site is at
Nortn Island and the peninsula on the east side
OF the bay entrance.
Grierson says Congress should make liberal
appropriations for the purchase of suitabletracts
ana the construction of permanent posts for the
accommodation of troops now at inland posts,
where they are no longer needed, and which
must be abandoned. The railrca1s obviateithe
necessity for keeping SO many troops in the
territories where the hardships and privations
have to be endured, and they should be corr
centrated on the sea coast. where they can be
made comfortable. In view of the recent at
tempt 10 grasp Lower California from Mexico,
the present time is auspieious for the establish
ment OF these permanent posts
The General speaks with satisfaction of the
marked improvement in the condition of the
Indians on the White Mountain Reservation,
and recommends that they have a separate
agency and that good school be established at
Fort Apache. Grierson says the Jiearillas, still
attached TO the Ute Agency, should have sep
arate agent; that Barthoidi, the agent spends
their removal. His clerk Stallsteimer the
former agent, who converted the reservation
into cattle range aud used the Jiesrilla Reser-
yation for the same purpose, is the enemy of
the Indians, and should have nothing to do
with either agency.
