Crook telegraphs from Wilcox that between four jand five hundred Indian prisoners, re- quiring to be fed, would be here in four or five days. The prosence of the rene- gade bucks on the reservation will dissat- wfy friendly Indians and excite fear and distrust among white settlers in Arizona and New Mexico, and inmy opinion will result in adding to their past bloody history a new list of murders, rapes, child stealing and rob- bing. | earnestly protest against so dan- gerous an experiment” In answer to the dispatch Sceretary Teller reiterated his instuuctions to agent to refuse » the Indians mentioned in the dispatch, hnd stated he need not fear an attempt by the military authorities to lace Indians upon the reservation against his will. tor Charles K. Manderson, ebraska, Has to Say ot It. Donver Tribune. Senator Charles F. Manderson, of Ne- braska, is at the Windsor en route to the mountains on a short pleasure trip, A reporter for The Tribune last night called upon him, and was most cordiully received, Since Senator €. H. Van Wyck's election there has been anything but harmony in the Nebraska delegation in congross, owing to the fact that Sena- tor Van Wyck,whq was elected twyy, | ago ns annti-monbpolist, althotgh a re- | publican, could not see through the same spectacles as Senator Saunders and Con- gressman Valentine, and at times th have been open ruptures, Since the increase of the Nebraska delegation, by the election of Congress- men Laird and Weaver and the succes- sion Senator Manderson to Senator Saunders, there seemed to be more har- mony existing, and everything was mov- ing along smoothly until Congressman Valentine and Senator Manderson peti tioned for the establishment of a post route from Valentine, Nebraska, to Deadwood. Then Senator Van Wyck came out with an open letter to the post- office department opposing the establish- ment of this route. Notwithstanding this, it had been established prior to this, the contract let, and is now held in abey~ ance. Recently, on the 12th inst., the senator wrote another letter, chargi el e R the Nebraska delegation;” on this subs | ject the reporter talked with Senator anderson, The reporter urged upon Senator Man- derson to give a statement to the public of the facts co ed with this difficulty. He suggested that, while not desiring to be interviewed, he was always ready to give any statement that might be of in- terest to readers of the public press, and was disposed to_submit with what grace he could to the irrepressible interviey During the interview he stated: joined Congressman Valentine in a ve- quest to the postmaster-general that a post-route be established fron Fort Nio- b Nebraska, to Rapid City, Dakota. | Fort Niobrara is the nearest terminal road point to the Black Hills, Four miles from the fort is the newly located land oftice of entine. The country in that vicinity being very rapidly de- [ is | veloped, and an inmense immigration | is pouring into that part of the state. Much complaint has been made, not only by these settlers, but also by the popula- tion of southwestern Dakota in regard to their mail facilities. Understanding that numerous petitions have b to the postal department asl establishment of this post | learning Zfrom Congressm route, 1 Valentine | that upon personal investigation he was satistied of the necessity of the new route, Iivined him in the recommendation, Senator Van Wyck, thinking undoubted- ly that the establishment of another pos- tal line not advisable has made bitter op- position to it. The matter is being, as I understand it, fully investigated by the postal department, and will be decided on its merits, Since publicity has been | given to the matter through the public press, 1 have received much additional in- formation, and believe that the new route will be decided to be, not only advis but a necessity, for proper m | for that section. The | known to me personally, and iy action in recommending the route upon unquestionably reliable information received from others. Of course the establishment of postal lines is made, not Ly congressional delegations, but by the postoftice department, and to the execu- tive officers of the government is left the detail of letting and contracting. 1 knew nothing whatever of the matter of let- ting, and did not know what purties were secking to obtain the contract. Neither was | aware that the proposed new route had been a matter of discussion between members of the Nebraska delegation in congress heretofore,” I service country is un- “Still another improvement on the Royal 8t.
