Gen. Augur recommended that the dimculty be Settled satisfactorily by giving the disputed lands to the Seuntnole negroes, Who are now located near Fort Duncan, in Texas. These negroes were siaves of the Semindies in Florida and Georgia, and accom: Tree the Seminoles when they removed to the I Territory. After the war they left Sein hive ever, and ‘to Mexico and elsewhere. In- terior ceparcinent declined to favor the proposition of Gen. Augur, and the dispute over the land still continues. ‘THE IRREPRESSIBLE CAPTAIN PAYNE, ‘The recent history of the attempts of the Interior department to have the intruders removed by the mallitary may be summarized as follows: In June last Indian Agent Tufts was directed by ‘the Commissioner of Indian Affairs to cail upon the inllitary for the purpose of expelling from the Indian Territory Payme and his followers The military commander requested the presence of the Indian nt in making the removal, but at the Tequest of the Indian agent the acting Secretary of the Interior request the Secretary of War to airect, the removal without iis (the agenv’s) presence. Upon this particular request no further orders were issued. On July 11th the Secretary of the Interior addressed another communication to the Secretary of War referring to the occupation by Payne and his followers. and stating that they should be forthwith removed. This letter was referred to the commanding general, department of the Missouri, On the 22d July the acting Secretary of the Interior again addressed the cretary of War, asking that Payne and his followers, number- ing trom 1.500 to 2,000, be removed before they assumed greater proportions. The lieutenant gen- eral was Instructed by the Secretary of War to com- ply with the request of the Interior department, and A Copy of the Ietter was sent to the commanding general, division of the Missourt. Under date of july 1st, the President had issued a proclamation warning all intruders that they would be removed. by the authorities of the Interior departinent, aided by the Cophey Mf necessary. Gen. Au com- § manding the department of the Missouri, Was un— willing to act in the Oklahoma matter without or- ders the President, on the ground that the omicers, in making the removal, would incur per- sonal sibility if not acting under direct or- ders of the President. ‘Tne War department was informed through Gen. Schofleld, on the 2th July, of Gen, Augur’s unwillingness to Act. As it did not appear thit the proclamation of the President, car- fed with it the necessary order, the Secretary of War recommended that such an order be Issued by him, Which has just been done, as stated above, ‘The Prevident in the Catskills.
