Arranging to Pay the Friendly Indians for ‘Their Losses During the Recent Outbreak. TAKING A CENSUS OF THE SIOUX—SUBISSUE STA- TIONS To BE ERECTED—MANY TAKING THER LANDS IN SEVERALTY AND THUS BECOMING CITIZENS. Just now the Indian bureau is occupied with carrying into effect the legislation enacted at the last session of Congress relative to the Sioux Indians. There were a great many pro- Visions in the Indian appropriation bill which were given the sanction of law and were de- signed to satisfy the claims made against the government and also to enable the Indians to become citizens and to own their own lands. During the Indian troubles of the past winter the friendly Indians suffered the loss of their homes and their stock, and in order to make good these losses Congress provided for the Payment to them of $100,000. A special agent is now in the field investigating the entire matter with the view of ascertaining what losses were sustained by each Indian and also the aggregate amount, so that Indian Commis- sioner Morgan can use the money to aS beat ad- vantage. Theagent will make a and upon he basis of! this report the comissioner wil direct him to make the payments to the In- dians. Another agent is at work ascertaining definitely the facts relative to the loss of ponies alleged by the Indians to have been taken from them by the government some years ago. Congress made an appropriation and as soon as possible the money will be paid TO ERECT SUBISSUE STATIONS. Commissioner Morgan has authorized the Indian agents at the Sioux agencies to adver- tise for proposals for the erection of subissue stations and the necessary buildings will be erected as soon as the contracts can be let. Special instructions have been issued to em- F ‘oy Indian labor wherever ticable. Bids for furnishing a large number of stock cattle to the Sioux Indians have been advertised and Se eursas arenes or Indian ‘ou 7 4 York city May he” A CENSUS OF THE sIOUE. Special Agent Lee is prosecuting the work of taking a complete census of all the Sioux bands, and this census will constitute the basis upon c. Special Agent McKean is at work assisting the Cheyenne river Indians near Pierre, 8. D., to perfect their titles on the ceded land, and another special agent is allotting lands to the Crow © Indians. Capt. Penney, U.S. A., the acting agent at Pine Ridge, hes’ written to Commissioner Mor- gan, stating that a number of Indians there de- sire to take lands in severalty. He has been in- structed to report to the office what portion of the reservation is desired for that purpose in order that the necessary surveys may be made. Within a short time commission authorized by Congress to negotiate with the Indians for the settlement of the disputed boundary between Pine Ridge and Rosebud reservations will enter upon their work. ® ‘TAKING LANDS IN SEVERALTY. Itis stated by Commissioner Morgan that there seems to be a growing disposition among the Sioux Indians to take their lands in severalty so that each man can have his own homie. When the land is unsuited for agricul- tural" purposes double quantity will be given and the Indians" will” be. en- couraged to en; in _ stocl ising. Every Indian who takes his land in scveralty becomes a citizen. ‘This process tends directly toward breaking up the reservations and the abolition of the old agenc: m. ‘The dians become subject to ws of the state ui and are entitled to the protection of the courts. Dr. Dorchester, the superintenden? of In- dian schools, is now in Dakota making a thor- ough investigation into the educational needs of the Sioux Indians with the view of determir- ing the location of thirty day schools to be built this summer, ing school for the Rosebud Indians, the relocation of the board- ing school at the new site on the Cheyenne River reservation and the enlargement and im- provement of other boarding and day schools. MR. HENDLEY’S RESIGNATION. He Will Leave the Government Service on May 1. Mr. C. M. Hendley, private secretary to Sec- retary Foster, has resigned that office to accept position with ex-Senator Henry G. Davis in connection with the West Virginia Central and Pittsburg Railroad Company, of which Mr. Davis is president and Hon. Stephen B. Elkins is vice president. Mr. Hendley goes out of the Treasury Department much against the will of Secretary Foster, who had hoped to have the assistance of Mr. Hendley’s experience, knowl- ‘edge and tact in standing between him and the rest of mankind. He determined to leavo the office as soon as Mr. Windom died, as he had been frequentl; urged by Mr. Elkins to go with him in a confi- dential capacity, and he realized that his direct interest in his work.had died with Mr. Windom. He remained on duty, however, at Mr. Foster's Tequest until the new Secretary should become accustomed to his new field of work. ‘Ho served for many years as executive clerk at the White House and was held in high esteem wisconsin inteeath ete sco work cont in bank Correspondence of the Presidentaand his duties were performed with such care and fidelity that Mr. Windom when he entered upon his work at the Treasury Department saw in him the man for his private secretary.

Ex-Representative McKinley is about to sever his connection with this city, and he is going to doit with more or less regret. He goes over to New York to do a little orating on the 29th instant, then returns to Washington and with -Mra, McKinley proceeds to their home in Canton, Ohio. Their departure will end a lengthy and pleasant residence in the national capital. Washington suffers from a gerrymander that was aimed only at McKinley. Referring to Gov. Campbell's remark—that a clean campaign would follow McKinley's nomi- nation for governor—Mr. McKinley said he re- ciprocated the governor's sentiment on that subject. It would bea clean campaign if it should happen that he would be pitted against Campbell. “I bave no doubt,” said the major, that Mr. Campbell will be the democratic nom: nee and should I be his opponent we will dis- cuss only public questions.

The lottery companies received a black eye from the Treasury Department today, which, it is thought, will have the effect of driving them out of business. Having been debarred from using the United States mail branches of lotteries companies, which formerly did business in the United States, have been established in Mexico. Under the law printed matter from Mexico can- not be refused entry and each month lottery tickets have been presented at the custom houses along the Mexican frontier for admission into the United States. They have heretofore been admitted without question, but Assistant Secretary Spaulding has hit upon a novel lan to prevent their coming ito this country. je has decided that there is no law to prevent lottery tickets from being admitted as printed matter, but he instructs the custom officers to assess duty upon them at the rate of 25 per cent ad alorem of aoe Sa ois under sched e McKinley biti whzeh Geoan for this rate of duty uj [All printed matter not expecially oud for. ‘Tickets of value of $10 under this dicision will have to pay §2.20 custom due. This higt rete of duty will, it is thought, practically prohibit their importation. Being debarred from the United States mail and trom express companies and transportation lines the lottery compa- nies will find it difficult to dispose of their wares in the United States. The case came up in connectior with the importation of tickets of the Juarez Mexican Lottery Company. —__—____+.._________ MORE SCIENTISTS COMING.
