CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., Feb. 1S.-The
troops have not yet taken aggressive
action regarding the removal of the
boomers houses from the lands Occu-
pied by the townsite opposite here on
the Sioux reservation, and claimed by
the Indians as their allotments. All
sorts OF rumOrs are rife regarding the
various deals between the boomers
and the Indians. Whatever the out
come may be, no definite understanding
has yet been reached. The Indians
who have complained the most bitter ly
against the encroachments of the whites
upon land belonging to them are Iron
Nation, head chief at Lower Brule
agency, and and an Indian named Left
Hand Thunder. The former is highly
thought of by his people, but the latter
is regarded as mean Indian and has
but few friends. The officials of the
land office, together with the clerks
sent out from Washington to 10 put the
Office in running order. arrived here this
afternoon and were rendered reception
by the citizens, and grand banQnet in
their horror is being arranged. 1t is eX-
pected that the land Office will be ready
to receive filings by the beginning of
next week. when great rush will Oc-
cur. There are already hundreds of
settlers upon the Crow Creek lands,
which are surveyed. there also being
five or six townships west of the Mis-
souri, river which are being surveyed,
and these settlers will tender their fill
ings as soon as the land Office is open to
them. There is no falling Off in the
rush of settlers to the newly opened
lands, and every incoming train is
heavily loaded with persons in
tending to settle west of the
Missouri river. The crossing here
is again perfectly safe and the ice will
bear the heaviest loads without any
risk whatever. A gentleman named Z.
G. Sherman has just returned from
twenty m les i'll the interior bringing
number of fine samples of coal. which
he reports having found with the assist
ance of Indians, min inexhaustible
quantities. Mr.. Sherman represents q
syndicate of Eastern capitalists, who
have located a number of coal mines,
and he is SO enthusiastic over the pros
poets that he has ordered an outfit with
which to begin mining. This is no
boomers fairy story, but is absolutely
reliable. Mr.. Sherman is an expert in
this business and has plenty of capital

ment that was absolutely ludicrOus.
There was no possibility of reform in
the department or any bureau until
civilian assistant secretary was pro-
vided. MIR. McAdoo agreed with Mr..
Breckenridge's view that the punish
ment of the army officer responsible for
the tunnel failure was disgrace to the
army. and tended to bring courts mar
tlal into contempt. At l 80 the bill was
laid aside without action: the commit

bill, Mr.. Payson. of Illinois. in the
chair. The debate was limited to three
and One-half hours. The Democrats de-
manded five hours, which was refused,
and they demanded the reading in full
OF the aouse and senate bills, fifty-nine
printed pages. This consumed one
hour and twenty minutes. Shortly
after 8 o'clock Mr.. Struble, of Iowa,
took the floor in support of the bill. He
criticised the senate bill because it did
mole lands purchased under the last ad-
ministration. He explained the provis-
ions of the house bill at length. Mr..
Barnes, of Georgia, spoke in favor of
the senate bill. He said the house bill
proposed to include in the territory
lands to which the United States did
not now hold title. The United States,
he said, had no right to erect a super
structure of government over lands
which by solemn obligation and by
treaty belonged to the Indians. Mr.
Mansur. of Missouri, denied that the
bill trenched on Indian rights. The
only jurisdiction established was court
jurisdiction. There was no attempt to
establish territorial form of govern
ment over the Indians without their
consent. Mr.. Springer, of Illinois, said
the United States had right under the
treaties to legiSlate in regard to the
Cherokee strip. The Indians them
selves did not contend that they had

Mr.. Hare. of Texas, had read at the

governor says that the establishment of
territorial form of government and
more courts meant the beginning of the
end-the annihilation of the Indian.
MIR. ManSur, of Missouri, and Mr.. Per-
kinS, of Kansas, said that they had
communications from Gov. Bird. asking
the establishment of court at GER
tain place. Without concluding the dis
cussiOn of the bill, the house at 5:1O

says that no person will be restrained
