Inquiry at all Bar Harbor hotels fails to ro- veal the prescuce of either ex-Collector Erhardt or Dr. Baldwin, the physician who treated Mr. Miaine in Florence, Italy. Inquiry atthe Blaine cottage clicited an absolute denial of knowledge of the iammediate whereaboutsof either of theso gentiemen. It was said, however, that some time ago Dr. Baldwin wrote Mr. Blaine, in- forming him of his intention to visit America for vacation. Mr. Biaine has no knowledge of his reported intention to. visit Bar Harbor and certainly has no intention of seeing hin profesmonally. The report that the Florence physician has been sent for is pronounced a fabrication ? Mr. Blaine refuses to see any one who comes upon « politied mission or to tulk politics at all. Therefore it is exceedingly dowbttul if he sould we Collector Erhardt should be come. Dr. Taylor, Mr. blaine’s physician, eays the re port that Dr. bakiw:n was seut for is abenrd and untrue.

By Avan J. chardsoas It is not every day that » Washingtonian claims to have been placed under arrost by In- dian policemen and ejected from an Indian reservation. ‘Therarity of sach happenings as | those depicted by the alleged sufferer in the, Present instance—Dr. T. A. Blend—must be my excuse for mentioning the matter. | Perhaps an equally good excuse might be found in the fact that some things in connection with | thisso-called outrage have not been made quite amplain as they should be. I have seen ne- merous newspaper statemontsasto the affair bat | they were al! so misleading and unfair as to be | very far removed from the square truth. These statements mast have been M.V.| penned by persons who were absolutely | "M. Free- | #$norant of the occurrences in- question, but who thought they sawachance to shoot an Indian agent in the back. Dr. Bland was | probably disconcerted and it may be enraged. | nut he never stooped $o the aoncoction of such | falsehoods as have been cireulating—coupled | With his name—through the newspapers of the country dt the ‘past week or so. It so | ppened that I arrived at Rosebud almost im ediately after the doctor's departure, while the matter was fresh iu the minds of all who | knew anything of it. The doctor was not ar- rested, ner was be ejected from the Rosebud | reservation. He drove from Valentine in to the | agency, while Agent Wright was en route from the agency to Valentine. The agent recognized the doctor as they passed each other, but neither Accompanying Agent Wright was Maj ighth United States infantry ‘led by the War De- | partment to work with the civilian agent in the | nagemont of Rosebud, These two discussed | - Bland and his probable business at the and when they reached Valentine tight telephoned to his cltef clerk, in- structing bim to ask the doctor what his er- rand was and to require of him the production of such credentials as the law demands. TID: DOCTOR HAD NO CREDENTIALS. ‘Chief Clerk Mulian thereupon told him, in pursuance of instructions, that unless his credentials were prosented by the following morning he would have to leave the reserva- tion. That settled it. Within an hour the rr | back to Valentine, very much exercised over his reception. ‘On ‘the following morning Agent Wright was seen and of him Dr. Bland wanted to know by what right the priviloges of 4n American citizen—one of them being the right to go wherever he pleased—had been hain- mered down und sawn off. Agent Wright raid that credentials were necessary and. furthi volunteered the information that he would welcome the doctor to Rosebud if he could only produce a letter of introduction nes, wn, w. tan he would wot do it. Bie was, he said, on good terms with Commissioner Morgan. “But,” he added, y relations with Secretary Noble 1 cannot perhaps say as much.” An appeal to Major Earnest tor an explanation brougut forth only the statement that had AgentWright failed to act as be bad the strong arm of the military would have removed the doctor from Indian soil or planted him in it. HOIST BY HIS OWN PETARD. Now, if Agent Wright acted without authority he at least caused Dr. Bland considerable in- convenience and annoyance and an apology would be due. Had the doctor been arrested and ejected (as some of his foolish friends are alleged to claim) the apology would needs be most abject, but as things actually are the ofily pet#en an the wrong is the doctor himself. Ie | as frequently heard of “the engineer hoist with his own petard.” That is the situation precisely. At my elbow is a pamphletentitled, “The Sioux Nation and the United States.” It | is published by the National Indian Defense | Association, Washington, D. C., and, unless | 1 am very much mistaken, was compiled by the vorresponding secretary of the associa | tion—Dr. 1. A. Bland. Upon the first page of this pamphlet commences a sketch of the | Laramie treaty, negotiated with the Sioux on April 29, 1868." J quote from the page: “The | United States now solemnly agroes that no per- sons except those herein designated (the Sioux), excopt euch officers, agents and em- ployes of the government as may be authorized to enter upon Ludian reservations, in discharge | Of duties enjoined by law, shall ever be per- saitted to pass over, settle upon or reside in the territory dim this article.” Italics are freely used to emphasize the foregoing pro- vision. ‘The question now is, did the doctor enffer arrest und ejectment, or did hearrest and eject himself after suddenly realizing that he was fracturing a law to which he had recently called particular attention? DR. BLAND AND CAPT. PRATT. People at Pine Ridge still wmile a little over a story in which both Dr. Biaud and Capt. Pratt are interested. Just now it is a little dificult whether the laugh ie on the medico-philan- thropist or the soldier educator, but in the light of years, which every historian should sec things through, the rather amusing problem may some day be solved. Here is the story— | true inevery particular: Dr. Bland was at | Vine Ridge during the latter part of June, stop- | for the time at the Hotel de Jarchow. Jrcsty Horses, the murderer of Lieut Cans was reported to be somewhere in the immed ate vicimty, 80 the doctor vent out for him: he desired to converse with him. In u little while the highly decorated young ruftien made his appearance, and when he entered the room wus enthusiastically met by the representative of the National Indian Defense Associatio am Dr. Bland.” remarked the Washing- tonian, as he shook the young Brule's blood stained hand, but there was no response “Dr. Bland of Washington,” insisted the pro- prietor of that name and address, yet Plouty Horses was still dumb. “Of course, you have heard af me quite tre- quently,” insiimated the doctor. Plenty Horses, in his own way, said that his tympanum had’ never been agitated by the necousary sound wares. “You were at Carlisle for several _yoars, were you not?” queried the doctor, by thistime much agitated. ‘Plenty Horses nodded. “And never heard of me?” Plenty Horees ehook his head. “Received an education at Carlisle and never heard of me?” gasped the stricken philauthro- ist. Then he became indignmnt and said udly: “I always did tell Pratt thut his school was. fraud.” A-TRUE sors. Generally it is believed that the great Amer- ican novel has yet to be written. and the fuct orn, | and ‘those who are supposed to he tailing in search of it. Hasany modern writer of note looked tor his plot on an Indian reservation’ Here is true story with enough of imcident in it to “raVbat ie as a day in June?” is a comndrum that Las puzzled 4 000 many peo- ple, and yet days in June are not half so intre- queut as beautiful Indian maidens.
