San Francisco Market Review.

BAN Francisco, June 24.-The produce mar
kets were dull today. Prices weak and tending
lower. Wheat dull. Shippers are holding off,
as the greater part of the engaged tonnage in
port is not yet ready for loading. Oats very dull
Corn steady, fair demand. Barley quiet The
price of bakers extra -four was reduced zoe per
barrel today. Ground barley, bran land other
millstuffs unchanged.
The market for vegetables and summer fruits
continues overstocked with many varieties, and

fairly firm; the latter growing scarce.
Fancy butter moved off well, with little in
quiry for inferior grades. Eggs dull.

EXCHANGE REVIEW.
NEW YORK, June 24.--Wall street for the pres.
ent seems to be as near asleep as it Is possible
for the money center of the continent TO be, and
the stock market reflects the uncertainties in
the situation by the most intense dullness in
transactions and stagnation in fluctuations.
The market closed dull and rather heavy, and
final changes tonight show some irregularity,
but small losses are most numerous. Rock

THE RENEGADE CREEs.
They Are Proving n Great Source of An
nOyance.

hOyducc.
EDITOR TRIBUNE: During the Indian
excitement last December, when the
messiah" craze was working up the ma
tons wards in various parts of the United
States, | wrote to the interior depart
ment in regard to a band of Crees then
camped upon my property, requesting
that they be removed. | recently re-
ceived a letter from Hon. j. I. Morgan,
commissioner of Indian affairs, in reply
to my communication to the department,
in which be states the peculiar position
that the Crees occupy in this country at
present. As everyone knows, they are
renegade Indians, who fled to this country
after the collapse of this Reil rebellion
in the Northwest territory in the year
1885. There are about 300 in all in Mon
tana. and most of them subsist by trading
horses, deerskins, and curiOs with the
whites. and, of course, by begging when
they can.
The Crees on Box Elder earn some
money by cutting wood for the post at
Assinniboine, and so far rs known are
the only members of that tribe in this
state who attempt to make a living by
manual labor.
The commissioner explains in his let
ter the peculiar attitude the government
is bound to maintain in regard to this
nonadic tribe owing to the fact that they
are not the wards of Uncle Sam, and so
can not be disciplined by the federal au-
thorities for interfering with settlers or
making themselves otherwise obnoxious.
He further states that they can only be
prosecuted through the laws of Montana
when committing d~epredations or causing
trouble.
From the tenor of the commissioners
letter it is evident that the Crees in Mon
tana are here to stay and possess more
privileges than accorded our own Indians.
1t would be to the benefit of the citizens
of northern Montana to petition the presi-
dent to arrange some agreement with the
dominion government whereby these
Crees can be turned over to the authori-
ties across the line. As it is now he
nuisance of having them is almost lntol-
cradle. Besides breaking down fences
and pilfering their moral degradation is
a disgrace to the community.

THE NATURALIZATION CASES.

Cascade County Set Down for Fifty
of Them.
HELENA, March 25.-District Attorney
Weed was at his Office in Helena making
preparations to file the suits in the United
States circuit cour which are to set
aside the certificates of naturalization 49,
sued to the foreign born citizens of Ana
conda. "There is emphatically no part
isanship in the matter" he said. at is
no new thing here. A great many suits
have been brought at other places. The
encouragement was satisfied hat many
illegal naturalization papers have been
issued in Montana. l was satisfied of the
same thing myself, but it was no more
by one party han by the other. When |
was secretary of the republican territor-
ial committee the same thing was done
in this county by republican deputy
clerks. The idea In these proceedings
is to protect citizenship in Montana and
all over the country. The governments
theory is that the certificates were irreg-
ularly and illegally issued. We will en-
deavor to prove this.
"The term of the United States circuit
court begins the first week in April. l
VIII get up the cases as soon as possible.
Before the close of the term in July |
expect to have a test case. One case will
probably decide all in which the facts
are the same. An effort will be made to
ascertain if 1t is proper to institute suits
in each case. The suits are not brought
under any statute. The United States
has the right, however to bring them for
the purpose of setting aside the papers.
There is no suggestion of criminality in
the proceedings. They are all suits in
equity. Besides the Anaconda cases,
there are between two and three hundred
in Lewis and Clarks county, from three
to five hundred in Silver Bow, probably
one hundred in Choteau, the same mum
Der in Jefferson, and fifty in Cascade
county"
