this t. say Of the work Of allotting

1.-THE commission was unable TO
make any allotments until April ],
1895. on which date all lands In the
reservation, except those containing
gilsonlte, elatcrito and other like sub
stances, were opened TO settlement and
entry. A number Of allotments were,
however made TO the Uncompahgres

many allotmcnts TO Indians who were
not In occupation OF the lands allotted,

thority OF law TO make such allotmentsl
and am Of the opinion that there is
some question as 10 whether, when the
Indians were In possession, the lands

IL suggested that congress should be
Rsked to lcgalizc the allotments ON the
Uncompahgrc reservation after the
first Of April 1898. There appears to
be no objection to such legislation"
As TO the work Of the new Uintah
commissioners, the commissioner re-
ports their appointment, but says they

INTENTIONS OF THE REDS.

Walker, MINI, Oct. i0.-It is report
ed on the authority Of citizen who
has couversed with hostile Pillager
Indian. one who was In Wednesdays
battle. and who has sat in all the coun-
ellis Of the PillaRers, that the Indians
have sworn 10 an agreement TO accom-
plish. n possible, the following: They
will attempt in few days to drive
from the reservation all Of the troops
already there They will, II they are
successful in the above, not allsw any
United States authorities or United
States troops thereafter TO land upon
the reservation. n troops land upon
point not inhabited by the hostile
Indians, an attempt will be made 10
drive them OF as soon as possible.
Tho man who gave this information
Is believed TO be thoroughly reliable.
lie has had m extended conference
with General Bacon.
That the Indians have been gather
ing for several days is well known
fact aud II seems perfectly reasonable
20 suppose that they are gathering for
an attack upon body Of troops at
least goo strong. as those at the agency
are. Up to date the hostile Indians
have made no attacks upon the white
settlers. There are no indications that
they will do ~. and this bears out the
fact that they will conilnc their hos.
