The Subject of Letter from Gov. Cleaves
to Gov. Russell.

Boston, November 11.-In accordance
with the resolve passed by the last legis-
lature that the governor be and is here
by requested to communicate with the
governor of the State of Maine with the
view of ascertaining the relation of said
State of Maine to the treaty obligations
if any exist, of this commonwealth with
reference to the Passamaquoddy tribe of
Indians in said State of Maine,n Gov.
Russell communicated with Gov. Cleaves
of Maine.
A response was yesterday received at
the executive chamber. In his letter
Gov. Cleaves says:
For a series of years the Passama-
quoddy Indians, socalled, have
CLAIMED certain rights in the
state of Maine not conceded
them by treaty or legislative authority.
Their representatives have frequently
appeared before our legislative commit
tees, and, understand, have appeared
by counsel before the legislature of
Massachusetts, claiming certain rights to
fish in lakes and streams, and hunt in
territory in this state not especially set
apart to them by treaty or any official
paper to be found on the files of our state
department..
"Our supreme court in the case of state
VS.. Peter Newell, "a Me-, r463, has held
that the Indians resident within this
state are not Indian tribesn within the
treaty making powers of the federal
government.
What tribal organization. they may
have is for tenure of property and the
holding of privileges under the laws of
the state. They are as completely subject
to the state as any other Inhabitants can
be. They cannot now invoke treaties
made centuries ago with Indians whose
political organization was in full and
acknowledged vigor.

Wide District of Country Laid
Waste by Forest Fires.

The State OF Michigan has been
visited by the most destructive forest
fires ever known to her oldest inhabi-
tants. The burnt district covers
nearly one-third of the State, and
the losses of timber alone will run up
into the millions. Everything be-
tween Dabier in Wood county, and
Naceeda, Juneau county, on the Mil
waukee, Chicago and st. Paul Rail.

ton City, Dexterville, Prentice, Spen-
Ger, Medford, Rhinelander, Stevens
Point, and other places, with popula-
tions of from 1000 to 5000, were sur
rounded by flames and only saved by
the most strenuous exertions. While
no lives have been so far reported lost,
it would be surprising with the wide
spread disaster there would not be
some fatalities. The whole truth will
not be known for some time.
