THE EARLY SOUTHWEST.

Yale Archaeological Theories en- Queo-
tion of Population's Extent
In an article on American archaeolo-
gy in Harper's DR.. Ellsworth Hunting
ton of Yale discussed the question as
to whether the southwestern states
were ever densely populated.
"How long were the ruins OF the
southwest inhabited and how dense
was the population in ancient times?
Some of the best archaeologists have
strongly insisted that appearances are
deceitful- The hundreds and indeed
thousands of sites OF ancient villages
in Colorado, the Texas Panhandle,
Utah, New Mexico and Arizona, as well
as In similar parts of northern Mexico,
were not all inhabited at one time, so
porary stopping places where migra-
tory bands of a people supposed to
have been the ancestors of the Indians
settled for few years and then moved
on. At the outside limit, so say these
archaeologists, the entire population
never amounted to more than a few
score thousands, whose civilization was
of the lowest and most insignificant
type. Other students, fewer in num-
Der than the orthodox school, hold that
the majority of the ruins were all oc-
cupied at the same time and for CEN
fury after century.
"They say that the population Of the
arid southwest must have amounted to
many hundred thousands-decidedly
more in all probability than the coun-
try supports today. Furthermore, If
this were so, although the type of civ
flizatton may have been most primitive
compared with ours, yet it was by no
means so low as that OF the modern
Indians 1t must have been of the
same grade as that of early Babylonia
Egypt, Palestine or Greece before the
art of writing was invented. People
who could dwell peacefully for centu
ries in large, permanent communities
and could build great communal houses
and long systems of canals were by nc
means untutored savages. Civil order
and submission to the will of the ma
jority must have been as well devel
oped among them as among U.S."

sent for me and told me that they
were asking at general headquarters
for the papers in the Troop case, and
he must forward them If he disap-
proved of them without reason 1t
would place him in bad position and
would not save the prisoner AS 1 had
nothing on which to base my faith In
Troops innocence except his remark
when convicted could do nothing.
The general approved the papers and
sent them onward and upward. In a
few weeks they were returned, with
an order to carry out the sentence.
Shortly before the execution was to
take place an outpost defended by Cap
tain Croker was attacked, and the cap
tain, deserving his command. fed to-
the rear. There being only one other
officer present with the company and
he being a weakling, the men stuck
together and without a leader beat OF
the enemy.
Then came charges of cowardice
against Captain Croker. / reported
the matter to the general, asking if he
could not stave off Troops execution
in the hope that something might turn
up to throw light on his case. Unfor-
tunately there was no court in session
to try Captain Croker, and there was
an imperative order to shoot Sergeant
Troop. At the generals suggestion
visited Croker and asked him If he
did not have some further information
as to Troops desertion that had not
| appeared at the trial. I found him
logged, though respondent, and left
| him without gaining anything.

| convene a court and try Croker at

from the service. AS soon as the pa

for his approval he sent for me.

clear Sergeant Troop will disapprove
the findings of the court and permit
him to resign

what he could of his reputation by
confessing himself villain. He had
| overheard conversation between two
of his men detailing a plan to depoSe
| him. Their difficulty was, first, that
they did not know how to go about it.,
and, second, there was no officer in
the company fit to put in his place.
They finally decided upon Sergeant
Troop, who, though noncommission-
ed officer, would be acceptable to all
if they could secure his appointment.
Troop had gone on his scout immedi-
ately after this conversation, and
when he was recaptured the tempta-
ton to get him out of the way was too
great for the captain to Withstand.
Troop was pardoned for an offense
he had never committed as the SIM
plest way out of pretty mess and
made captain of his company. Gro
ker's resignation was accepted. He
subsequently became a prominent citi-
zen of his town.

I'm 1868 I was detailed on court
martial to sit at Nashville for
the purpose of trying cases OF
delinquency that had occurred In
the Army of the Cumberland One
young fellow, Sergeant Milton Troop,
who was brought before US, engaged
my attention the moment 1 saw him.
His bearing was soldierly, and his
countenance bore the stamp OF
strong character. He was charged
with desertion to the enemy
His disappearance occurred while his
regiment was in proximity to the Con-
federates- Later on the command at
tackled and surprised a small body of
the enemy, taking number of prison
ers, among them the accused. His sto-
ry was that on the evening of his dis
appearance he had pointed out to his
captain that the command was liable
to be surrounded by the enemy. The
captain had declared that there was no
enemy near. Troop offered to ride out
and reconnoiter. The captain gave his
| consent Troop had not gone far before
he was called upon from the rear to
surrender. He had ridden between the
enemy's vedettes.
The captain, Croker, being called
that he had had no such warming and
i had not given the sergeant permission
or orders to scout The matter rested
on a question of veracity between the
| two men. The scale was turned against
the accused by the producing of a
| scrap of paper found in his knapsack
on which was written, Meet me to-
| night at the bridge south of the tav-
ern." 1t was not signed, and as the
| handwriting was manifestly disguised
| it was impossible to tell whether the
| writer was man or woman. At the time
/ the message was written the location
| described was within the enemy's lines.
When asked to explain this paper, the
| prisoner at first refused to do so, but
afterward said that he had formed
the acquaintance of a young country
| girl, who had appointed the meeting.
| The captains evidence was so direct
| and the accused's explanation so lame
that he was found guilty and sentenced

made an exclamation which convinced
me of his innocence:
