THE CHICAGD TRIBUNE: SUNDAY. OCTOBER S—SIXTEEN PAGE short ribs, S3@GC for short THE INDIANS. Why the Northern Cheyennes Abandoned Their Reserva- tions. The Government Failure to Furnish Them with Ra~ tions. Almost Ttter Extinction of the Buffalo in That Country. Gen. Sheridan has received some very {mpor- tant commubications bearing upon Indian sup- plics, which 2o to show that the causes that led the Northern Cheyennes to leave the Fererva- tiou at Fort Reno were'a lack of rations and other supolies’ promused by the Goveroment, when those Indiaps were induced to go on the reservation set apart for them. Under date ot Sept. 19, Maj. J. K. Mizoer, of the Fourth Cavatry, commanding at Fort Reno, calls the attention of Gen. Po,¢, commanding the Departmentof the Missour, to the following statement of the quantities and kind of supplies furnished for ibe subsistence of the Indians at 1he Cheyeoue and Arapaboc Aeency for the fiscal vear ending June 30, 187, and in_connec- tion therewith to _the amounts of the same nec- essary to subsist those Indians to the same date, 1hat the very laree geficiency that must exist mav be made more apparent: Total number of indians, 5,004, Amnt pur-) | Amount re-| chased and, quired jor| contvacted: Deficiency. year.

It has bren the practice and policy of the Indian Department to send a Jarire part of the Indians on a buffalo-bunt four ortive months eacn year, and itis presumed that with such an _expedient in Tiew only cight montbs’ supplies bave been furnished, with a hope that the Iudians can subsist themselves Tor at least four months durinz the pre<ent fiscal year. Such a hope will, I am satistied, be a vain one, and, indeed, cannot be depenided apon. “Two vears azo the Indians had a successful hunt, and subsisted themselves for about five monshe, A year ago their huot was a disns- 1rous failure,and a very larze number of the Indians abscat from the Arency without ra- tioms suffered greatly for want of food. They svon destroyed all the small game that could be Tound, then lived for a time oun dogs, coyotes, and horseflesh, until beef could be issued to them at Camp Supoly to keep them from starv- ine until they could reach the Agencey. Permission was granted the Indians to 2o ona hunt in July, but, as uo buffalo could be found or heard of in the Territory, the Indians were advised by the Agent and myself 10 mive up the hunt, féaring au expenence similar to thiat of last winter. Aside from 1hgcousidera~ tion that these Indians should vive np the chase ruther than continue it, a5 tending to foster a warltke spirit and divert their atteution from more civilized pursuits, it is well knewn that the buffalo have almost entirely disaopeared from thie region.and subsisteuce from this source cannot be depended upon.™ **‘The contracts made for beef and flour to supply the Agency. and the amounts of each of tle other portion of the ration allowed these Indiaus sv tar lurnished, scem to indicate that tie Interior Department did not ‘intend to sup- ply wore than a two-thirds’ suvply for * e year, or only what will sutlice for eight months, de- ‘pendiny as heretofore upon the usoal bufalo- bunt to make up tne balance, aud as this cannot be relied on, the supplying of the deficiency above shown should at once receive the serious uttention of the proper authorities. Attention is respectfully invited to Article 507 3 agree- ment made at the Red Cloud Age: ept. 26, 1576, published in an aopendix 1o Commis- ioner's reoort for the same year. ~ This agree- anent requires the issue of ‘one and one-half pounds of beef net, or three pounds gross, one- half jound of flour, one-halt vound of corn, four pounds of coffee, eight pouuds of suszar, and three pouuds of beans to each 100 retion.s.” Maj. Mizoer gives the following table: Purchased and Supply for Supg.s yor Sunplies. contracted jor. 8monihs. 1yeer, Teeef. 1bs....3,750,000 3,047,916 - 5,171,380 Corn, 1bs, 150,000 607, 980 BLs, 23 Fioar, ibs... 660,000 o 913,230 Coffee, 1bs. 45,018 73,058 Sagar, b 80,028 136,116 Beanes, 1bs, None. 54,793 He also adds: ‘he above ficures show that the snpulies furnished are just ubout sufficient for eight montbs. The additional 25 per cent of oeef and flour that may be called foron the con- tracts will supply the deficicney in these articles shown above, but the appropriation for the avilization and subsistence of these Indians, torether with those at Fort Sill and the Wickita ,.is only $2¢0,000, and the indebtedness incurred for this Agency alone amounts to ovér $135,000. which, with the fact that the }m ¢ of beef is much higber 1or this year than ust, may put it bevond the power of the Commissioner to furnish further supplies with- out an additional appropriation. While it is well known that the supply will be inadequate for the year, it is, and has at all times been, ir- rezular. Since the Ist of July and until Sept. 1 tic indiaus bave had little else than beef. A full issue of flour bas been made twice. The Indians are subjected to many ageravations, 2nd men of more gentle nature would not be 0% 10 complain. * It seems proper for me to present all the facts for the consideration of the Department Commander, that he may urge, through the ‘War Depariment, a8 moré kind and humane treatment of these savages, and, if necessary, hat the attention of the Fresident be called io this subject, tbat be may lay the matter before Congress. “Our recent experience shows the necessity of makiug rood our aurcement with the Indiaus sent 1o the Indian Territory.” Jonn D. Miles, United States Indian Agent at the Cheyeane and Arapahoe Agenvy, under date of Sepz. %0, writes to Maj. Mizner, sayiugr that the taiture of the Government to carry out its promises to the Indiaus was one of the causcs ich led the Northern Chevennes to leave their reservation, He says the Indians were also protuised houses for th.e Chiefs and assistance to bui'd houses for the others. and cattle, hows,etc., nouneof which promises huve been carried out. lie Teunes tust LDE maiconlenigol ihe Nortiern Cheyennes refused to affilmte with the South- ern Cneyennes, and when an attem)t was made w enroll the former they avoiued it by all sorts of excuges, and finally, on the 9th ibst., they caped Irom their camp, which they had strong- wtrenched, feaving their lodires aud tejees anding.

Assistaot Adjutant-General of the Mil- itarv Divifion ol the Missouri, says that he thinks it vroper to invite the atiention ol Gen, Sheri- dun 1o the fact that there remain in bis Depart- ment 1or all the Iudiaus in the Indian Territory, aud for the exvosed frontier of Kansas and Eastern Colorado, only four companies of cav- alry, and they are stationed at Foris Sill and Jeno. the Kioway and Comanche and the Cheyenne and Arapahoe Avencies, from which it is impossible to remove tnem without endan- Fering_eversthing in that region. Gen. Pope also shows the juadequacy of his cavalry Jorce for the protection of the Kansas border, snd is of the opinion that the cavalry serving ouainst the Indians should be armned with the Sprivefield rifle. 1le says there was no appear- ance of turtber trouble at the Cheyenne Agency at the time be wrote, but quict was likely.to be ‘broken at 20y mowent uniess the Indians were ;}-Ammlas;ly\ and xuropcr‘ly 11::1 1n closing, Gen. 0 : 1 perceive that the Commissioner of Indiau Affdirs is represented to deny these Tacts, BUt it ik tobe presumed that the inclosed Wwritten stateinent of the Indian Apzent in charge ol those 1lndiens may induce him to question the accuracy of his reported denial.”” All of the documents above referred to will be torwarded to Washington to-morrow by Gen.

The younger of the Shaffars,a lag 7 years of age, was instantly killed, and Mage Sbhaflur, aged 21 years, was scverely if not fa- 1ally wounded.

For all that, the fact remeins. And, as to Coleridge, not only did e live in Clevedon for several months, but, when he warried Miss Sara Fricker, in 1795. he brougbt her here for the hovevmoon. Coleridge bas been gathiered 0 s fathers, but toe humble cot be inbabited is still in existence. 1 was looking at it thé other day.

Consols remained steady at 94 5-16, and, with the exception of the increase of ta discount rate by the Bank of Belgium to 43 per cent from 3% per cent there were no unfavor- able symptoms. The {Lenk of England guined 2,000,000 in specie, and the fact -that it is en- abled to hold its minimum rate down to G per cent i« reassuring. Six per centisa nigh but not ex- traordinary mimimum rate, In 1857 the rate was rused to 10 per cent, 8s ity was nlso in 1866. Dur- ing the panic in this countfy in 1873, the mini- mum rate was S@9 per cent for several weeks. The loss by the City of Gusgow Dank failure proves to be less than tke. first estimates of $50, 000,000 in the telegraphic dispatches, but consid- erably more than the London Zimes' first estimate, which was $10,000,000. The 7%mnes of yesterday puts the loss at a moderate and favor:ble calcula- tion at $31,000,000. Thi is a terrible blow to the stockholders and to the ‘pride of the Scotch in Scotch banking, There has certainly never been a worse bank failure than that of the City of Glas- gow Bank. All the elements of scoundrelism and carelessness that make up bad banking are 1o be seen in ite management. Chicago has had some unique specimens of bad banking, but its Spencers have done nothing worse than has been done by the Glasgow bankers. In an cditorial on the re- sults of tae faiture of-the City of Glasgow Bank, the London 7imes says: Ttwould be premature as yet to specalate on the extent of the mischief wiich the Glasgow Bazk failure will brng to jight. No one cantell. “An epidemic of fallures, when it oezing with 8o virn- lenta case, must run its course. One sroup of firms after another must be adfected, and it js only a8 tie engazements of cach sroup fall due that the full sevenity of the e¥il hecomes appurent. All that can be now said is that for montos and years— eversince the Collie catastrophe in 1875, in short —credit has been generally nfated; and w hope, consequently, that thereare not the mate for such crashes as the money mariet hus formerly wituessed.

Tlence there must be caution and suspende in trade for some months to come, however confident peopic may be that no great mischiel will eventually come 1o light.

Wheat was firmer and omis sold higher, while other grain exhibited less change. Provis- ions were dull #nd hoxs weak. The leading facts of the day's news were anadvance of 6d per quarter on wheat cargoes off the English coast, and a big run of hogs here for Saturday, which materially weakened prices. The receipts of grain apoeared to be on the decrease, and the ontward movement was fair 1 volume. Joboers of dry #oods report a continned zood business.

Poultry was easy, though nmot =o pienty, tae old stock having been closed ont. Game was firmer, the chznge to cooler weather enabling shippers to take the surplus on the street.
