INDIAN TREATY ENDS.
So Year Compact With the Allied
Tribes Expires Tomorrow.

Wichita, Oct. 13.-Thursday will mark
the expiration of one of the most ia
nous and important Indian treaties in
the history of the United States. This
is the treaty made between the United
States and allied tribes on the banks
OF Medicine Lodge river. October Il,
1867, 13 miles from the present site of
the town of Medicine Lodge.
General VIM. T. Sherman. then at
the head of the regular army, General
Harney and other noted regular army
officers were present, while eX-GOVern-
or Sam Crawford Of Kansas was pres
ent in command of the Kansas troops,
enlistng the year before to fight IN
dians.
It is said that 15.0OG warriors were
present from the various tribes among
them the famous and vicious old Chief
Satana. The Indians Outnumbered the
troops probably five to one, and old
Satana formed a plan to surround and
MASSACRE the whole body.
That the plans failed probably was
due to the clear headedness of ex-Gov.
Crawford. who farhOmed the design of
the willy old savage, and put the COM
mandinS general on his guard. The
troops were formed in a hollow square
with United States commissioners and
newspaper cores pOndentS in the CEN
ter. GGtHng guns commanded the ap
prOacheS. Satana was smart enough to
see that the jig was UP and did not or
der the massacre. Among the newspa-
per men who We're present at the max
ing of the Medicine Lodge treaty was
Stanley, afterward the famous African
avOlarar.

SECOND DAY OF REUNION
Senator Harris and Congressmen
Broaerick and Curtis Speak.

LeavenwOrth. Oct 13-The second
day of the interstate G. a. +. reunion
was favored with perfect weather. The
first feature was the march OF the Uni
ted States troops from the fort to the
city
At Camp AIger they were Joined by
the Fort Riley command and their
progress through the city was watch
ed by thousands of spectators. After a
parade Of the principal streets, they re-
turned to the fort.
At 10 O'Clock Judge Bond, chairman
of the reunion committee. called the
aSsemblage together in the pavilion at
Camp Alger, and after an original song,
composed by j. T. Dudley of this city
the chairman introduced United States
Senator w. a. Harris, who is an eX-
confederate.
Senator Harris opened by saying that
he was always pleased to talk to old
soldiers. He was a hero WOrShiper and
had no regard for any nation that was
not composed OF hero wOrshipers- He
thought that the best way to have good
young soldiers, was by showing our
honor for the old soldiers.
There is no record on earth of such
q war as that of the north and south,
he said. "On the part of the south
there was no idea Of personal agSTan-
dizement. It was a battle for what
they believed to be right. In the south
today there is no man who would alter
the present condition of things if he
had the power"
The senator paid a glowing tribute
to Cen Grant, and said: 4 could only
wish to see one more monument erect
ed and have it dedicated to American
vaIor. 1 would have it on the crest Of
Missionary Ridge, with inscriptions on
the eastern face and on the western
face; Liberty and Union, Now and
Forever. one and InSeparable-' "
Congressman Broderick was next in
troduced- He paid a high tribute to the
American soldier, who believes in
something and contends for what he
believes in. The real cause of the late
war, he said was human slavery, but
today the south would not return to
it.
Congressman Curtis was the next
uUes' speech, referring to Kansas as
the great soldier state of the union. 1t
is 18th in population and sixth in soldier
population.

Cofeyville, Oct. u - Word comes
from Denver of the rObbing Of Charles
Young of this city on Saturday as he
was preparing to leave Denver for COf-

Two months ago Young left this
place and has been working on a ranch
near Boulder. While waiting for a

caught the fancy of H. J. Adams and
Z. F. Gilmore, notorious crooks. They
Immediately made professions of
friendship to him, with the additional
information that they were from Gree

he so desired.
About o'clock one of the men sug-
gested that all should walk along Lari-

The suggestion was agreea bic, and the
trio walked to Twenty-fourth and Lari-

Young says that Adams and Gilmore
dragged him into the vacant lots, and
that Adams placed his knee in the

throat with both hands, they took all
his money and disappeared. Young re-

FIELD GIVES UP.
Associate Justice Field of the
Z. S. Supreme Court
Asks the President to Place
Him on the Retired List.
SURE GO THIS TINE
Unless the Aged Jurist Should
Again Change His Mind.
Attorney General Mckenna
Ready to Take His Place.

New York, Oct. ia Washington spe-
ciaI to the Herald says:
Associate Justice Stephen Johnson Field
of the United States supreme court has
made formal application to President Nc
Kinley to be retired from the bench un-
der the law allowing members of that
court to be retired when 20 years old.
The statement is made on good author
ityi and also that Attorney General Nc
Kenna may be nominated to succeed
Justice Field.
Washington, Oct. 13.-Justice Stephen
J. Field of the United States supreme
court, it is believed by many of mis-
friends will announce his retirement
from the supreme court bench some
time during the present term though he
himself would say nothing about the
matter for publication when newspaper
men called at his residence today. 1t
has been his ambition to eclipse the
record of Chief Justice Marshall for
length of service on the supreme court
bench and in this ambition he was sue
ceSSful during the past summer lie
was appointed in 1863 to his present pO-
SitiOn and being now nearly 81 years
old has been eligible for retirement on
full pay for nearly eleven years. He
has been in feeble health for several
years but has continued in service. For
some time past, his attendance has
been rather irregular and he has not
preparation of his opinions. Now that
he has passed Chief Justice Marshalls S
record he has had retirement under Sc
riOus consideration and it is thought an
announcement will be made before
long that he has taken this course.
Attorney General McKenna is re-
garded as being almost certain to sue
ceed Justice Field. Both come from
California.
An Associated Press reporter called
at Chief Justice Field s residence today,
but the justice excused himself, sending
down word that he was not feeling well
today. Mrs. Field would neither con-
firm nor deny reports of her husbands s
impending retirement though giving
the impression that it was at least un-
der serious adVisement. At the su-
preme court it was said that nothing
was known there on the subject and
that any announcement must come
from Justice Field himself.
That the members of the court believe
the justice viii decide to make way for
a younger and more active man is
shown by the fact that they have post
pOned hearing several important decis-
ions until the beginning of the new year
by which time it is thought quite likely
Justice Field may have retired and his
successor be in office. OF course it
is possible Justice Field may in the end
decide to remain in office, decision he
reached several times in the past when
his retirement was contemplated by
himself.
