Fresh Cruelties and Outrages by Our Pampered Outlaws. THE MILITARY FORCE INADEQUATE. Horrors of Human Torture and Butchery. Extent and Origin of the Hos tile Movement. THE OOMANOHE “MEDICINE MAN.” WASHINGTON, July 24, 1874 Colonel J. W, Davidson, of the Tenth cavalry, | forwards to the headquarters of the army @ re- quest of Indian Agent Joun D. Miles, of the Chey. e*nne and Arapahoe Agency, in the Indian Terri- tory, dated Darlington, Indian Territory, July 3, asking Mhat a detachment of troops be sent to the agency to protect the tives of employ¢s and the | government property against hostile Indians, as the agency is surrounded by small parties of such indians. In forwarding the request Colonel Davidson states that Company M, of the Tenth cavalry was sent to the agency on the morning of July 6, to remain until troops came trom Camp Supply or until the serious apprehensious are Milayed. He expresses the belief that the activity along the northern frontier of Texas on the part bf the troops this spring and summer has diverted the attention of the Indians to other quarters less protected. MISCELLANEOUS KILLINGS AND SCALPINGS. Accompanying the communication of Colonel Davidson is a letter from McCusker, interpreter of the Cheyenne and Arapahoe Agency, stating that three Cheyennes came into camp on the evening of July 1, and reported that the day previous a sarty of twenty-five Cheyennes and Kiowas made a attack on a trading ranche, thirty miles north of the agency, near Red Fork, but were driven off. fhe Indians then came south, and when within jour miles of King Fisher killed and scalped a white man named Watkins. The party then sepa- rated, most of them going to their camps on Wachita, near Antelope Hills. The three Chey- ‘mmes also reported that the four men killed on Medicine Lodge were kiiled by Kiowas. The attack sear Camp Supply was also by Kiowas. The two men ttiled here, west of the Antelope Hills, were killed by Kiowas, led by “Lone Wol!” and “The Man that Waiks Above the Ground.” The Cheyennes killed @man south of Fort Dodge, and nad four of their | own menu killed. They report Kiowas and Co- manches raiding in large parties. They also report & party of Kiowas on the North Canadian, twelve mules above the Cheyenne and Arapahoe Agency, who mean to get scalps before they go home. The Kiowas sent THE WAR PIPES to the Osages a short time ago. Eagle's Heart led the party. A large party of these scoundrels, Osages, passed west last Sunday. COMANCHES REPULSED WITH LOSS. A later communication irom the same source says a party of seven young Arapahoes report that quite recentiy a large party of Comanches acd Cheyennes, led by the young Comanche medi- | eine man, made an attack on a new settlement on the Canadian River, near the Adobe Walls, soon alter daylight, and were splendidly repulsed, the Cheyennes losing seven men killed and the Co- Manches six, besides a number of both tripes badiy wounded, who will die. A large number of Rorses belonging to the Iniians were also killed. The Comanche medicine man had bis horse killed ander him, and he himself was saved with great | aiMcuity. He was afraid to rus in when the others did, and the Cheyennes pronounce him a fraud and a coward, THE ATTACK PROBABLY RENEWED. The Arapahoes met a party north of the agency on the aiternoon of July 1, and they said they were going to clean up the mail stations north of the agency. the agency and intended to strike a cattle train. In a despatch dated July 7 Lieutenant Colonel Davidson reports that he had learned from Inter- preter Jones that the attack on the adobe wails @& the Canadian River was made by a party of Chey- ennes and Comanches, numbering perhaps 200 or 260 warriors, The settlers—thirty in number— took refuge within the walls, and, veing weil armed, succeeded in defending themseives, killing The In- dians admit that alarge number of their people They claim to From imformation since acquired Mr, Jones thinks there is luttie doubt but that the Indians have again returned and re- seven Comanches and four Cheyennes, were wounded, many mortaily.

Mr. Stillwell, another interpreter. reports that om the evening of July 5a report was brought into the Cheyenne Agency by catcle men to the effect that at Skeleton Creek, about filty miles above the agency, on the road to Wachita, Kan., a train of about twenty wagons had been attacked, und tne whole train burned and four of the train men gilled and burned by a party of Indians, supposed | to consist chiefly of Chevennes and a few Coman- ehees and Kiowas. Jt is believed also that some Osages were ofthe party. Stillwell also reports that this was the only communication received at the Cheyenne Agency from the upper country for &® week previous, aithougn the usual mail service om the line runs three times a week. GREAT ALARM OF THE SETTLERS. Colonel Davidson says from all accounts there Beems to be great alarm im the upper country, and so soon as Captain Carpenter returns from the Brazos I shall call in some of the troops from Camp Augur to meet the state of affairs.” Lieutenant J. A. Olmstead, of the Thirteenth iMtantry, commanding at Camp Stanbough, Wyoming Territory, reports, under date of July 16, tbat Captain Bates met the Arapanoes and whipped them soundly, captured 230 ponies and killed twenty-five. He lost two soldiers and two Shoshones kilied and turee wounded. Lieutenant Young has a flesh wound in the thigh, painini put got dangerons. Captain Bates returned to Camp | Brown, but leit again on the 13th to strike a party teported to be in the Vicinity. Captain Gordon lett the post with nis company on July 15, to be in striking distance in case Captain Bates needs as- sistance. Captain D. D. Van Valzah, commanding at Fort Davis, Texas, reports one man killed and one wounded by Indians in the vicinity of that post, SCARCITY OF TROOPS. YT. Connell, acting United States Indian Agent, at the Wichita Agency in the Indian territory, July 5, made a request of Lieutenant Colonel Davidson for one company of troops and forty stand of arms, with ammunition, to protect the reservation. He says the Comanches and several other bands have moved into the agency, and will remain if troops are furnished to assist them in the defence of tne place, they having been notified that outside Co- manches and Kiowas we: them. Lieutenant Colonel Davidson, Im reply, states that he has not troops enoagh to supply the three agencies now demanding aid, but had despatched courierg to Lientenant Manon, who had been sent | to the Cheyenne Agency, to halt his company at the Wichita Agency and look out ior the salety of that place, Captain Carpenter is now absent from Camp Angur ona scout tothe Brazos with 300 picked men Oi his command, which renders it unsaie to weaken that camp any furtner, An Army Officer’s Exposition of the State of Affairs in the Territories=Dreadful Outrages Perpetrated upon the Persons of Living Victim: OMana Bakpacks, Nebraska, Jaly 21, 1974. To Tam Evitor oF Tak HeRay:— The papers have recently been rife with that PROMS Budjecr—mene Indinu. Almost every day we Another party passed south and east of coming up to attack | the north we hear of Uuster’s progress into what is called 4n unknown land, the Black Hilis, which are said to have a sacred charm for the red man, doomed to continue so if the protests of a few are to be heeded. This attempt of Custer’s is said to be the first effort (if it is such an effort) on the part of the government to obtain reliabl information touching the natural resources of the | mysterious country in question. ‘The fellowing extract will suitice to show how this expedition of Custer’s is viewed by tbe press and the people :— While the expedition is doubtless undertaken with @ laudabie purpose, in the interests of civiil- zation, the act will very naturally be construed as ® breach of faith on the part of our government by the Indian tribes, to whom this region was ceded as a permanent reservation. Why these hills are to remain unknown to the white man and to civilization is based on the tact that if invaded by Custer it will be in violation, as indicated in the above extract, of treaty obliga- tions with the Sioux Indians. But this, if ttis reaily a8 represented, shows ciearly that THIS TREATY IS AN ABSURDITY, and should at once be moditied, reputed, are rich with the precious metals, they should be explored without delay, so tliat our money-scarce country may have abundance and prosperity. Treaties with Indiana should any part of the United States, if it thinks proper to do so, and if the Indians will not consent to such provisions then break off all treaty stipula- tions with them and punish them severely for every violation of law of which they may be guilty. It the white man Kills he is pursued, and, if caught, either hung or sentenced to imprisonment sor iile. The same stern rule of justice should be applied to the Indians, THE TEMPOKIZING SPIRIT, so prevalent at the present time, causes precious moments to be thrown away. What good effect bad this Christian and praiseworthy spirit had upon the indians + (Can anybody say that they are a@ny nearer the handling of the plough, apd pos- sessed of any more of the civillaiug influences of the day than betore this spirit was introduced into the policy of the government’ The answer to these questions, we think, must be in the neg- ative. THE INDIAN’S CHARACTER. The Indians, of course, sre very prone to profess Imendship, aud act exempiarily 30 long as it suits their purpose and convenience. They use poucy because they believe the white men are easily duped. The Indian’s ways, in the opinion of the Indian, are past finding out, and it would seem they are about right, as the white men have had their character to study ever since the settiement of the country, and it is a Jact patent to all that they are in ignorance O/ it stili, or they would not have been trifled withso long. When I use the term white man I use it in a qualified sense, and except those villains who are dally stealing from the Indians and making them desperate. Powuer, lead and bullets, and the implements for which they are in- tended, are common articles of trattic between those men and the Indians, When these devilish articles are interdicted by the government, with | the severest penalties attached, massacres wili be fewer, the Indians will not be so bold, and they will be readily brought under the sway of the | white man, whose natural disposition 1s to treat them fairly. HIS MBANS OF SUBSISTENCE. It is ofte powder, iead and rifles they wil! starve, as they cannot bring down the wild game upon which they subsist. If this were really the case it would be a good thing for them, as they would be forced to abandon their nomadic life ana conform to the manners of the white man, upon whose vocations they would have to depend jor a livelihood. But this is tar from being the case, as the Indian is more expert with the bow and arrow than he has ever been with the rifle.

In the spring of 1869, at Fort Randall, Dakota, which was then ap ou:-of-the-way post aud a favorite rendezvous of the various lamilies of the Sioux Nation, we assembled a number o! the young bucks (very small boys), who were armed with their bows and arrows, firing at the smaii virds in the trees, and, being new comers in an Indian country, We were very desirous to see them shoot with their native weapon. So with this end in view we offered them liberal prizea in the Way of edibies, &c., if they would display their ski! with the bow and arrow. They leughed and shook their heads, as much us to say, “We will.” We now busied ourselves in fixing the mark, aud, not to be hard with the youngsters, we made it quite large; but finding they were exceed- ingly expert, and that they won their wages with- ont troupie, We put up a smalier mark, until finally we got them firing tnrough the ring m tne cork Of a canteen, a little over an inch in diameter, through Which they managed to pass their arrows frequently. ‘There was hardly an exception to vhis good peony So it will be perceived that, having acquired this accuracy in youth, they must | to a great extent retain it during manhood. The strength wich which a iull grown Indian can send an arrow irom b:s vow } saw fmily demon- strated iu the vicinity of Fort Larned, Kansas, during a buffalo hunt. In the progress of the punt, which was in full view of the post, the In- dians sent their arrows so deep into the builaio that we could see but a small part of the reathered end of the arrow, and in one or two instances they passed conipletely through the body of the buffalo, These examples are suMcient a8 illustrauve of their Wonderful skiil with the pow and arrow. THE Usk OF THE RIPL Their skill with the rife, however, is not so Wonderful. It is seldom that you can get an Indian to fire at a mark with a rifle, because pow- der and bail with toem are tar more precious than | money with us. On the Yellowstone expedition | of rast year we encamped in a place in the valley ol the Mussel Shell where had been a large Indian encampment, apparently a winter camp, from the many bark nuts und pole enclosures for their ponies. While on the ground, which | Was one of the finest that we occupied | during our jong and tedious journey, we | discovered several marks or targets, at which the Indians, no doubt, had been testing tneir skill with the rifle, aud the common remark and | surprise 0: all was the poor shooting. The dis- tance fired could not have been very great, as the valley at this point was quite narrow. In our opinion they cannot compare with the white man in handling the rifle. Custer speaks o! the son of Santanta as being a good shot, but observe, not 80 good a shot as Caster himself, as lie came out best shot in every trial, Powder and lead, there. fore, with whicd they can do so much muschiel, it is certain are not necessary for hunting their wild game, SANTANTA'S DESSERTS. The name of Santanta, mentioned above, is a familiar name to We heard it often wnen we | were youthful soldiers or pione¢rs in Kansas, But, if our recoilection is right, we always heard it in connec! ion with some bloody deed. of this well known name oi Santaota was princi- pally to illustrate the treachery and unreliability oi the Indian character. This big and bloody In- dian shouid have been hanged while he was a prisoner in our hands but a short time ago. THE NOBLE RED MAN'S FRIENDSHIP. The circumstance I am about to relate occurred, I think, in the year 1862, while we were stacionea on Pawnee Fork, busiiy enzage? in the process of adobe making for the building of Fort Larned, since whieh time it bas been renovated and built anew. At tue time above stated the troops and white men generally were deadly foes of the Kiowa Indians, who were slaying tne whites wherever Jound, Of this tribe Santanta Was chief. It was geuerally Known and believed in those days that Santanta was a very warm friend of the possessor of Walnut Creek Ranch, which was then an important station on the line of the Santa Fé route, ‘The white person here alluded to bore the name of Peacock. Santanta, Wieu he could not show himsel! to a White man except when he came upon him in a defenceleas state, would go to Pea- | cock upon the passing of the private signals which indicated (tat all was well, aud say, “Haugh! have a friendly chat, and they would then sep- arate, goud lviends as usual. But Santanta, the boble red man ('), came to see his Iriend Peacock once too often, “because upon this occasion, feigning ‘ear about the troops coming from the post of Larned, he induced nis good friend, Peacock, and other white men stop- ping at ranche, to mount the roof, and see through their great eye—the spyglass—if they could see any sign of the troops coming from the post. The strategy worked weil; for just as soon as Peacock and his irieucs were on the roof with- out arms, Sanianta and his retinue of young bucks: whipped off their biankers, and, with most deadly aim, brought Veacock and the others to the | ground wallowing in their own blood. OF the | number o! white men at the rancne, five or six, only one escaped, and ne was a sick man whose room was locked, The door could have been opened, but these murcerers and assassins bad not the courage to atrempt it. A HORRIBLE STORY, | The following extract will expiain itself:— “Dr. Bard, Harvey Mergan and Mr. Mason, three citizens 0; Wind Kiver and South Pass, were on their way from South Pass to the Lated States camp on Big Popoagio, and distant only ten miles irom the camp they were surrounded by avout seventy-five sioux and killed.

Taen they know, too, that the government is aware of their murders and depredations, and Knowing this and seeing no steps taken to punish them, they have grown bolder year by year, have forgotten the thrashings received in 1868, and, throwing aside the mask they have worn for years, have once more defied the government. THE MILITARY UNPREPARED, If the critical state of affairs existing here for three months past bas not been properly presented to the authorities at Washington the proper ofm- clals deserve the condemnation of every living being in the country; but Iam convinced that the military authorities at least have presented a true statement of the case to the War Department Still nothing has been done in reality. No addi- tions have been made to the troops here, bat, on the contrary, much bas been done by Congress to diminish the army. Now the war is upon us, and, as in all previous cases, finds us totally unprepared, totally incom- petent to deal with tne savages. THE ORIGIN OF THE TROUBLE can be traced to the superstition of the Indians, For weeks the Indians have been talking of the great Comanche “Medicine Man; how he de- scended from some indefinite place to take a seat one night ut the council fire; of nis ability to render all who follow him invu!nerable in war against the whites; how he spat cartridges out of his mouth of every calibre and wmanotacture. These marvels were, Of course, eagerly swallowed by the young braves, Who always are anxious tor pillage and murder, and a little legerdemain soon won the conservative element among them to his purposes. He declared to them that his purpose among them was that he was sent by tne Great Spirit above them to lead them against the whites and to restore to them the prowess they had lost by contact with rhe pale faces. Soon other tribes mecked to bis standard and a flame was kindied which bas for a long time been only smoul- dering. THE KIOWAS HOSTILE, THE APACHES PEACRFUL, All the Comanches, excepting only the Pen- netethkas and nearly all the warriors of tvat band, all the Cheyeunes, all the warriors of the Kiowas, many of the Osages and a number of the Arapahoes are allied for war. made by the agen's that the Kiowas and others are not implicated, but are quiet on their reserva- tion. Believe it not, Mr. Editor, for they are not here; they are not hunt.ng buttalo, but they are hunting white meu’s and women's scalps and property. ‘the Apaches alone are here; vor does any one doubt their peaceful intentions, The dep- redations committeed already are sufficient to Warrant the government taking immediate steps for tueir punishment.
