AN 1NTEUV1EAV W1TU
GEN. HOW AUD.
HIS OPINION IN REGARD
TO CROOK.
Authentic News From
Crook.
St. Taul I'iouier Press.
(Jen. O. O. Ilow.tnl, coniuiand.int of
the department of tlie i'latte. accom
panied by Lieut. Guy Howard, hid son
and aid-de-camp, is at the Merchants
en route to Omaha. The General id
on his way home from Tort McKinney
where lie ha been looking up the
condition of affairs in the country trib
utary to that posl. Two companies
of tlie ninth infantry have been trans
ferred to Fort Itusstll, t.par Cheyeune,
to lmvh tl ace to two companies of the
Fifth cavalry, as that sirm of the ser
o - - - a - - -
vice is more ellectiva at th it point
than infant rv. There are now three
companies of cavalry and one of infan
try at McKinney. Tlie general ex
pressed himself as pleased with the de
velopement of the country where he
followed the Nez Ferces on that long
and wearisome march over rugged
mountains, through forbidding canyons
and over trackless plains. The great
civilizerhas opened up the wild wastes
to settlement and cultivation.
AICIZOXA MATTKKS.
General matters have been talked
over for some, time the interviewer
asked Gen. Howard the following di
rect question:
M It has been stated in the papers
that you went to Arizona and made
peace with the Chirieahua band of
Apaches; and the allegation was fur
ther made that Gen Crook was just
then prepared to conquer them."
The general hesitated somewhat, and
said he di 1 not desire to enter into any
controversy with a brother officer, nor
to make any reply to the statement
that could be construed into an attempt
at defense, when nojie was needed.
Finally he requested that the question,
as above given, be wiitten, and then
dictated the following answer:
"In 1872 Fresident Grant, at the re
quest of Mr. Delano, Secretary of the
Interior, sent me to attempt to make
peace with these Indians, the only
tribe then at war with the United
States. The Fresident gave me letters
to the division and department com
manders, the latter being Gen. Crook,
and directed me to report for specific
instruction to the Secretary of the In
terior. The letters and instructions
are matters of record. I succeeded in
carrying out the latter, but never ex
ceeded them. Gen. Crook and myself
were acting under orders then as now.
He is a judicious officer, and I wish
him abundant success."
A DANGEROUS TRIP.
The general gave a SKetch of his
trip at the time of the treaty .and said,
with a half smile:
"I may have been too zealous in obey
ing orders, but it certair ly was not a
pleasant commission. I never went
into battle with as many chances ot
death against me as I took when with
an aide, an interpreter, and two scouts
I went into the lair of Cochise, the
Chirieahua chief, in the heart of the
Dragoon mountains. My scouts found
the trail and finally the hiding place of
the band, and I was told I could go in,
but only with four or five men with me,
I rode the last 125 miles- through the
raosl difficult country, scarred with the
deepest and most precipitous canons
you ever aaw. The entrance to Co
chise's den could have been defended
by ten men against an army. It was
through a narrow canon, with walls
200 or S00 feet high, and of sheer rock
on both eides. I spent the night in the
camp, and next night, Cochise saw rue.
I made the treaty with him on my sec
ond trip, upon which I took back pro
visions. The Indians went to the reser
vation provided for them at Camp Ap
ache and were afterward moved, why, I
know not, further, north to San Carlos,
and congregated with Indians with
whom they were not friendly. Cochise
died and afterward his oldfist son died
also, I guess tlie Indians kept faith as
long as tfe3i-; they generally do, I
take U. I simply did as I was ordered.
I was ordered to make the treaty, if
possible as I might have been to take
a battery and I did it. The treaty was
deemed then a very desirable thing
and it was. Gen. Crook and I were on
the best of terms. He wrote me a beau
tiful letter in acknowledgment of what
I eaid concerning him in my report, cf
the whole thing He is an able, brave,
judicious and faithful officer, and I do
not wish any controversy between us."

nickerson's false pretesses.
Some time previous to the iustitu-?
tion of proceedings for his divorce,
Major Nickerson applied to the war
dapartment tor ar attested record of
his military services. He assigned as
a reason for preferring this request,
that he proposed going abroad and ex
pected to visit Egypt to witness the
military operations ther incident to
the war then in progress between the
English government and the khedive,
and as he (Nickerson) was not a grad
uate of West Point, he desired to use
as credentials an attested copy of his
military record. Although contrary
to precedent, the department acceded
to his request and papers were duly
prepared in the adjutant general's office
Major Nickerson did not go abroad,
but it now transpires that the papers
were used in the trial of the divorce
case to establish the high standing and
record of the plaintiff in the suit.
PERU AND CHILI.
Senor Godoy, Chilian minister, has
advice from his government, via the
Mexican legation, Paris, announcing the
ratification of a treaty of peace between
Chili and Peru. His advices state that
General Iglesias, who signed the treaty
on behalf of Peru, is acknowledged in
the whole of northern and cential Peru.
The terms of the treaty include the ces
sion to Chili for ten years of the prov
