DIR. DANIELS OPPOSES
MONUMENT TO CHIEF
Indian War Surgeon Says Mou-zco.
mam-nee Did Not Aid the
Whites.

ST. PETER, Mimi, Aug. 13.-In the
opinion of DR.. A. ". Daniels of this
city a mistake is being made in erect
ing a monument to Mou-zoo-maun-
nee, supposed to have been a Chippewa
chief who was friendly to the whites
during the Sioux massacre of 1862
The last legislature voted an appro.
priation for the erection of the monu
ment, and it is to be dedicated at Fort
Ridgley on Aug. 20.
Prior to the outbreak DR.. Daniels
was. the government surgeon at the
Lower agency, and he was one Of three
doctors who accompanied Colonel
Flandrau's force when it marched tc
the relief of New Ulm. He helped
care for the wounded in both battles
at that place.
when I was surgeon at the Lower
agency before the Indian war;" says
DR.. Daniels, II was familiar with the
name, Mou-zoo-maun-nee. Translated,
it means Walking Iron. may have
known the warrior personally; in any
event his name was familiar to me,
and l know him to have been Sioux.
In all probability he took part in the
massacre.
II have no recollection of services
being rendered to the whites by any
Chippewa, nor do the histories of the
massacre make mention of such a fact.
It is extremely improbable that any
Of the Chippewas ventured into the
Sioux country. Had they done so they
would have been killed, for the two
nations were at war at the time.
"Other Day, a Sioux chief. did dis;
play friendship for the whites, and
succeeded in saving several large par
ties of them. I know of no Chippewa
who gave assistance, and l believe
the identity of Mou-zoo-maun-nee
should be thoroughly established by
the state historical society before the
monument at Fort Ridgely is dedi-
Gated"
