Duffy of Washington acted as general manager of the whole affair. A cannon was drawn in front of the procession and was fired as quickly as it could be loaded along the enure route. Another was mounted on the Bladensburg bridge and jabout hatf a dozen men kept it thun- | dering until the procession passed. The line reached all the way from Hyatts- ville depot to the other end of Bladensburg. Houses ulong the entire route were illuminated, Tegardless of party, with ono or two excep- tions, where a gloom almost death-like pre- vailed. When the procession reached Biadens- burg and halted in front of the office ot J. C.

O° » one of the board of immigration commissioners at New York, and Mr. Hebert Welch, secretary of the Indian Rights Association of Philadelphia, who inspected the Indians, Mr. Welch, who hada letter from Acting Indian Commissioner Belt suggesti: that in view of the charges of cruelty Mr. Welch might make anexemination of the Indians, asked Maj. Burke for permission to carry out this nga Maj. Burke said that he was per- fectly willing to allow the examination to take place, provided that it was conducted in the presence of himself and the report- ers of the press, To this Mr. Welch ob- jected and said that he desired to take the statements of the Indians without Maj. Burke or any one connected with the show being Present, although he was willing for the re- Porters to be present. Maj. Burke declined to accede to this proposition, basing hie refusal to do so on the ground that Mr. Welch had no authority to make the examination, SIGHT-SFEING TODAY, The entire party then ieft Philadelphia and arrived here last evening. Today the Indians have visited the Capitol and other points of interest around the city. The Hotel Hanover, on Pennsylvania avenue, has been surrounded ail day, even when the painted and bedizened braves have been ab- sent, by a crowd of small and exceedingly ap- Preciative boys. The party will leave here to- morrow evening for the agency. A CALL ON MR. BELT, Mr.. John M, Burke, the manager of the ‘Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show, and Mr. Nate Salsbury, the vice president of the Wild West Company, were at the Indian Office today. They saw Mr, Belt, the acting com- missioner of Indian affairs, and informed him that they had brought to the city the Sioux Indians that had been connected with their show while traveling in Europe. In view of the charges made of ill treatment they asked Mr. Belt to examine the Indians. Mr. Belt notified them that he would receive the Indians tomorrow. He has sent for an inter- Proter who. will translate into English the statements made by the Indians, In addition to what the Indians may have to say a physical examination will probably be made. THE MANAGERS ANXIOUS, The managers of the show are anxious to convince the government officials that their treatment of the Indians has been kindly and that their connection with the show has been of benefit to the Indians both financially and morally. Upon their success will depend permission to employ the Indians in the same way in the future. Sectctary Noble some time ago issued an order ‘directing that authority in the ae be not pomp wey yes leave their reservations for urpose of joinin, such shows, It will bo nedestary to have tis order revoked if the services of Indians are to be again obtained. The managers of the Wild West Show claim that this action of the Secretary was based upon the treatment of Indians by other combinations, but that the Indians with the Wild West Show have had the best of treatment, WHAT MAJOR BURKE BAYS. Major Burke, Buffalo Bill’s right bower, was out driving with Capt. Allison Nailor this after- noon when's Sfan reporter met him. “We are down here looking for jus- tice,” said the major, “and we have brought our Indians along to speak for themselves. ‘In every respect wd havo done more than we contracted. We have paid, fed, washed and cared for every one of the chil- dren of the plains'and mountains, Imi- tators of our ‘Wild Webt may hare been carcless of their Indians, but we have been mdst considerate of those attached to our company. Occasionally one of them would be sick, sometimes one would be home- sick, but we could not fortify any of them against these indispositions, Oo We propose to renew our supply of In- diaus? Certainly, And we can get all we want. An Indian is not a slave; he is a free agent and can go just as far as his pocketbook will take him. If anyone refuses to believe that let him try to prevent any Indian we engage from filling his engagement. No one can truthfully accuse us of illtreating any Indiags, and we pro; to prove the falsity of a number of nebulous charges made against ua. Gen. O’Beirne has been imposed uponmand he is finding it out. Several of our company died with the grip, among.them Mr, Richmond; all the sick ones were carefully attended to, and you can't blame the show because th® disease ‘beat the doctors, We are coming out all right, Don't forget that, WISHED HE HAD KILLED HIM. The Trial of Nelson Harris for Shooting James R. Garfield. In the Criminal Court today, before Chief Justice Bingham, the trialof John Walker, alias Neleon Harris, colored, on the charge of an assault with intent to kill James R. Garfield, October 15, was resumed, and Officer Mulvey testified to the arrestof Walker and when he told him that he came near fixing that man the prisoner replied: “I wished I had killed the — ofa —.” The defendant testified that his right name was Lawson W. Harris and that he wag raised here, but had not lived here for fifteen years till he returned October 4 or 6, He then com- menced his formal statement, ‘Honorable judge and gentlemen of the jury,” and went on ‘to say that he met Garficld on the avenue and went with him to 1334 street and then to South Washington, and they were drinking: he (G.) had a dog and he (Walker) had a pistol and they got into a dispute, and witness “drawed the pistol and fired" He acknowl- ed that be was sent fifteen years ago to the timore prison, and when he came home his mother sent him to Providence, and since then ho had been in the navy, served on the Provi- dence line of steamers and in hotels in New York Chicago, Denver and other places, also serving asa cook ina cowboy camy, and that he re- turned here to see his poor old mother, who is now so. cld she can scarcely sec. He said that Gartield wanted to call on some white girls and defendant calling him a fool they got to quar- reling. ‘On cross-examination he said he was thirty- one years of age; bad been srrested as a burglar and had been a waiter, sailor, cook, miner and hostler, He gave the name of Johy Walker to keep his people from knowing of his arrest, Garfield shoved: him and he struck Gartie! fr be ie Royal Ponder ABSOLUTE STAFF APPOINTMENTS, Commander Hopkins Announces His Aids in a General Order.

To this end, and also to increase the efficiency, promote ‘the harmony and improve the a of the anion, the department commander makes several suggestions to the colonels of commands, among which are the following: The department commander earnestly re- quests that immediate steps be taken to make the ceremony of muster-in of recruits as im- pressive as it deserves, Let the new ritual be thoroughly memorized, and the several charges delivered in an earnest and dignified manner. Omit nothing. upon recruits, but let the officers have private mectings for drill in muster-in until the ti- ful ceremony is a and harmonious. Inasmuch as this department is locatedat the capital of the nation, it should be second to none. Bearing this in mind let all your efforts be for the promotion of the welfare of the order, for the increase of its numbers and efSciency, and for the perpetuation of the Principles for which you fought and for which so many of our brave comrades now sleep eae boot " ca this department will 8 juarters: nt be at room 13, Atlantic building, every Wed- nesday evening between 6 and p.m.. where the department commander and the officers of the department will be in attendance.

The department commander asks for him- self and for each comrade in this department the exercise of that friendship which should ever exist among brave comrades in arms, that loyaity which immortalized you in the dark days of war, and that charity which, having the same quality as mercy, “droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven,” blessing “him that gives and him that takes.” Tuos. 8.

Now all that romains to complete the System of water mains being dobry Col. Elliott is the laying of the 30-inch main on New Jersay avenue, which, when completed, forming # double tine, which will; it is expected, insure a good water supply for Capito: fill and the eastera scetion for many years tocome. The completion of these mains connecting with the new large main from the reservoir will offord much relief to the water department, The connections are so made that if through accident or the need of making repairs any large section of the city should be cut off from direct commuaication with the reservoir it can be supplied by round- about connections.
