Mr.. Maddox Oem., Ga.) asked unani-
nous consent for the consideration of a
joint resolution directing the secretary OF

Mr.. Maddox said that Secretary Tracey

Mr. Dingley thought it would be a
peculiar hardship to dismiss this young

correct this abuse of the power of the

OUTBREAK POSSIBLE.
Chippewa Indians wrathy-Liable 70 Go
on the Warpath.

MISNEAPoLIs, March 25-Reports from
Mile Laos reservation indicate that there
is some possibility Of an outbreak among
the 900 Chippewa Indians there.
During the Indian war of 1862, these
Chippewas proved themselves friends OF
the settlers, and as reward for this.
when congress passed the so-calleti act of
1889. they were allowed occupancy of land
they had held up to that time, the only
conditions being good behavior.
About two years later, however, their
lands were thrown open to settlement,
and since that time they have been wait
ing for the government to do them JUS
tice by again giving them possession.
The cause of the rumored trouble is the
attempt OF the Indians to collect sugar
from all sugar bushes formerly theirs.
but now on land held by settlers.
