FAIR DEALING WITH INDIANS, The trouble with the Cheyennes ap. pears to be, so far as the facts have come to light, the result of rank injustice, fol- lowed by natural resentment and an outbreak of savage wrath, The difficulty had its origin, as we have already pointed out, in the leasing of more than 5,800,000 acres of valuable grazing land belonging to the Cheyennes and Ara pahoes to cattle men at the nominal rental of two cents an acre. This was dohe by the authority of Secretary Tel ler, but in direct violation of law. Ac cording to some accounts the Indians, not knowing the value of the privilege, were willing to execute the leases; but other and apparently trustworthy testi- mony is to the effect that they were at first unanimously opposed to the ar- rangement, but that some were finally won over to it, while others have con- tinned their opposition, and refused their share of the rental. Agent Dyer, who has just resigned under grave! charges of dishonesty, is openly accused of complicity in imposing these unfair leases upon the Indians, and of threat- ening those who refused compliance with the demands of the cattle men. It is charged, also, that under Secretary Tel- ler's administration, when a certain cattle raiser lost about 2,000 head of cat- tle by the weather, the Indians were ac- cused of killing and eating them, and, on the secretary’s recommendation, con- gress appropriated over $46,000 to reim- burse him, $40,000 of which was paid out of the funds belonging to the Cheyennes and Arapahoes, that sum being all then doe them. Naturally angered by these and simi- lar sharp tricks, and finding out how egregiously they had been overreached in the rental of their best lands, the Cheyennes began to retaliate in the only way they knew how.

Thus all serious Indian war. juncture General Sheridan was sent to the case is becoming clearly understood. With a large force at hand to compel preferred to try the plan of securing peace by just treatment of the dissatis- fied Indians. He has recommended, as the first condition of peace, the abroga- tion of the illegal leases, and the imme- diate removal of the cow-boys from the Territory. He has also advised that the entire control of the Cheyenne and Arapahoe reservations in the Indian Territory be turned over to the War De- partment. These wise recommendations the President has decided to adopt, and we shall doubtless hear no more of the threatened Cheyenne outbreak. An- other good thing General Sheridan has done. He has caused a recount of these Indians to be made under the direction of Inspector Armstrong. Last year Agent Dyer reported that there were 2,360 Arspahoes and 3,906 Cheyennes, and supplies were issued upon that basis. The present enumeration shows that there are on the reservation oaly 1,300 Arapahoes and 2,160 Cheyennes.

Drexel ; General Hancock's staff; Miss Drexel, her aunt aod cousin, dressed in deep mourning, Oa the same train came the Loyal Le- gion, under Passed Assistant Paymaster Gilbert A. Robinson, Brevet Brigadier General Charles A. Carleton, Paymaster George De Forest Barton, Brevet Lieu- tenant Colonel Floyd Clarkson, Brevel Lieutenant Colonel August MeClark, Captain Edmund Blunt, THE SERVICE, At 10 o'clock the services were heid at the cottage in the presence of over a thousand persons. Cane chairs and rustic seals were provided for the ladies ander the trees in the grove belore the cottage. Those who failed to secure leafy shade used their nmbrellas. The ceremonies opened with the reads ing of Psalm No. %0, which was followed by an impressive prayer by Bev. Bishop Harris. “My Faith Looks Up to Thee,” was joined in by the whole assemblage present, with fine effect, Dr. Newman then came forward and delivered the fanera] sermon, the family meanwhile surrounding the casket in the parior, At the conclusion of the discourse, the byma “Nearer, My God, to Thee,” was rendered v impressively by the Als fresc congregation, The services ended with the benediction. After the sgrvices ended there was a movement of the people towards the cottage to get a final jook at the corpse. But it was not deemed advisable to admit any ons, in view of the fact that it was near the time for the funeral train 10 start, At the last moment Mrs. Grant de- cided that she would not go on the faneral train, but would wait over until 4 o'clock, U. 8 Grant Post, No. 827, G. A. R, of Brooklyn, bore the remains from the cottage to the station shortly before 1 o'clock. The military were drawn up and a salute was paid the remains as they passed to the depot, and the throng stood with uncovered heads while the casket was borne to the car, ss AI AGIAN GENERAL GRANT'S REMAINS gales wf alle ing « Pe These citizens, upor yusand pairs of eyes were | were the Rev, Dr. New. | Harris, Methodist Browne, Hebrew: Father Me. iiynn, Roman Catholic; the Rev, Dr. Talbot W.

Whatever course he intends to pursue was not unveiled, From indications the interview was not a satisfactory one, Neither Mr. Randall por Governor Cur tin looked very much elated as they drove away from the White House. They did not care to say much about their visit, except in a general way, On the contrary, ihe old war governor seemed fo a humor to read the riot act to the President, and it is even histed about town that he actually did so to-day.
