The constitutional questions are
concerned with Thaw's eXtradition,

The attorneys for Thaw. who are at

INCIDENT is CLOSED;
NO SORE SPOTS LEFT

Washington, d. c., Dec. 9.--General
Hugh l.. Scott, who succeeded in pre-
venting what might have been con.
siderable Indian war in New Mexico,
has written Secretary Garrison, de-
scribng the closing chapter of the ne.
gotiations, drawing pathetic picture
of the lot of the Indians and attrbut,
ing the whole trouble to gossip. Gen.
Scott says:
The situation north is absolutely
clear. The prisoners were told to
apologize to Major Mclaughlin and
their agent, and have done this. Our
parting was most pathetic when they
left for Santa Fe to report to the
judge. They declared they would die
before surrendering, if approached in
any other way, but they each and
every one thanked me for causing
their minds to be changed for their
own good, and all say they will go
back home when released, to lead diff
ferent lives. They are thoroughly
softened, but they are poor. ignorant
who are easily handled II
ii is done in a sympathetic, kindly
way with force underneath which they
all respect. The contact of civiliza-
ton with these people is too hard for
them, and so much misunderstanding
between the two races in which the
Indian, who in the main is reasonable
and well intentioned, always gets the
worst of it.
THE state of terror at the agency
and throughout the San Juan valley is
now over. 1t was the result almost al
together of lies and gossip, carried
about by Indians and white men.
There is no sore spot left anywhere
to break out later, and | feel safe in
saying that the incident is over and
