nUTTH , Mont. , Nov. 19. ( Special. ) Sena
tor Leo Mantle has protested vigorously
Bgilnst the proposed abandonment of Fort
Ouster , and has entered Into correspondence
with Secretary of War Alger with a vlow to
having the scheme of abandonment changed.
Ho Is In receipt of a loiter from the secre
tary explaining In detail why the fort Is to
bo abandoned , the chief reason assigned being
that It would cost 1250,000 to repair the
fort. Senator Mantle states that this cstl-
mate Is greatly exaggerated , and It he can
eccuro the co-operation of the other senator
from Montana and the congressman and It
can bo shown that Fort Custer can be re
paired cheaper than this , ho will Introduce
a bill In congress to rc-cst-ibllsh the fort.
Secretary Alger , In his letter giving the
reasons for the abandonment , stated :
"Moro than twenty years ago , before the
Sioux natlca had been subjugated , and Mon
tana and the Dakotas were wild territories ,
Forts ICeogh and Custer were built for the
purpose of supplying troops operating agilnst
the Sioux. Fort Custer was built of light
frame buildings and of a temporary charac
ter. Fort Asslnnlbolnc was built a Httlo
.later of brick and atone. Slnco that time
( he Sioux have been subjugated , and to some
extent civilized. Their resenatlon In the
southern part of South Dnkoli Is , however.
In close prnxlmlty to Forts Robinson and
Nlobrara on the south and Fort Meade to
the northwest ; these are occupied by sixteen
trocp3 of cavalry and eight companies of In
fantry , at least 1,000 men.
"Fort Asslnnlb"ino Is a eermanent and
well built post , and Fort Harrison has re
cently been built of brick and stone. No
Improvements hive been made on Fort Cus
ter to any extent , > : nd It Is not considered
any longer of auy use , and In addition to
this it is within 100 miles of Fort Keogh ,
where there h a large garrison. It has
been the Intention to abandon It for several
years Recently the conditions have been
BO bad tb < u several reports have been made
BtatltiK the existence of several cses of
typhoid fever and the necessity of rebuild
ing a post would cost ? 230,000 , or sending
the 1-oops to other stations where they could
bo accommodated. This has been urgently
iceoimncnded by the department commander
and also by the quartermaster general and
surgeon general. "

Warden Doiiniinecil IIM a Murder.
31rs. W. H. Beck , -wife of Captain I3eck ,
formerly In charge of the WInnebago reser
vation In Nebraska , but now of the Ute and
Ulntah reservations In Utah , was In Denver
a few days ago on her way west , and while
there was Interviewed In regard to the re
cent killing of Indians by the game warden
In Routt county. She stated that she had
heard from her son , who Is an ottlcor In ono
of the troops stationed at Fort Duchesno ,
that a governmental Investigation Into the
recent killing of the Indians by the game
Hardens Is going to ( bo held shortly.
"Paul said In his letter , " said she , "that
that affair was nothing but murder , an,3 the
crudest variety of murder at that. The
Indians are wards of the Government , and It
Is no more than right that the government
should Investigate the killing and see that
punishment Is meted out to the guilty parties
If a crime Is shown to have been com
mitted. Ho went on to say that the Informa
tion gleaned at the fort goes to show that
the game wardens are guilty , and that It has
been decided among the higher oUKMals of
the army and the secretary of war that an
Investigation should bo held. Although I
was not at the agency at the time of the
alleged outbieak. yet I read enough regardIng -
Ing It to know nearly all of the particulars
and I fully agree with my son that It was a
cruel murder.
"My experience among the Indians has
taught mo that they are possessed of loving
natures , and that they will never harm a
friend. You know Indians have a universal
reputation of being thieves , but In all of my
life among them I have never lost a thing
that I know of through theft , and my pos
sessions have been , easy of access to the In
dians had they desired to molest them. They
detest the average \\hlto man , and consider
him far below their social level. They do
not consider It a crime to steal from him ,
but think It clever.
"I left the agency last August and have
slnco that time -been visiting my sister at
Fort Nlobrara. We were all very much In
terested there In the Houtt county trouble ,
but were sorry to know that the Indians were
killed , almost without provocation. No ; far
from being a dreary place , the Ulntah agency
Is a very enjoyable residence place. It Is a
beautiful spot , almost surrounded by moun
tains and as cosy a little nook aa I ever saw.
I never have become lonesome there , for I
have busied myself studying the natures of
the aborigines , and wherever I became weary
of that I could always occupy my time pleas
antly gazing at the varied outlines of the
Ulntah mountains. There are between 1,800
and 2.000 Indians upon the two reservations : ,
of which Captain Beck .has charge , and
among these are members of four tribes. The
White River Utcs. the Uintahs , the Uncora-
paqhrea and the Utes.
"They have given us very little trouble
during the course of our stay there , and I be
lieve are as peaceable and lawabldlng as
any tribe in America. But they arc averse
to manual labor and you might as well at
tempt to move the Rocky mountains as to
try to compel them to work. They are bright
and apt scholars and are eager to learn to do
fancy work , to write and. In fact , to do any
thing that requires simply skill and Intel
lect but If you att'mpt 'o make them do ha d
work they will He down and refuse to move
rather than be forced to labor. It Is a pe
culiar thing about them , and they have a
finer nature than the average dark-skinned
race , and education would accomplish won
ders with them were it not for the fact that
the educated members of the tribe , after
their schooling has been completed , are
forced to return to the reservations , and there
again descend to the level of the other mem
bers of the tribe , and to lose all the advan
tage which their learning might have been
to them.
"This Is a point upon which I am very
scasltlve , and which I have taken to heart.
As soon as I reach the reservation I am
going to begin writing a book on the sub
ject , entitled , 'Four Years oi > a Government
Reservation , ' and In It r am going to en
deavor to call the attention of the white
people to this Injustice that Is being done
the Indians. Why , I attended the com
mencement exercises at Carlisle , Pa. , last
spring and was astounded at the refinement
and education which I encountered among
the red men. But wrat does It amount to ?
They go back amcag their relatives and are
relegated to a seat In the tepee or about
the tire and afo oftentimes compelled by
the o'her Indians to discard their civilized
raiment for a blanket. ID time they become
aa badand , oven worse than the others. "

to the tack to about seven. Inches. The

Inches long. It Is ornamented with forty
brass-headed tacks , taken from old-fashicned

to represent a human life that was taken
with tbo weapon.
The tomahawk was presented to the ma

But Germnn wnr ships had on the J4th nd-
vnnced to Kalochau Island , landed troops
and after occupying all trto high ground ,

thereupon ordered the governor of Shan
Tung to keep the garrison under strict con

WASHINGTON. Nov. 19. The cabinet was
In session tor two hours today , devoted
largely to a discussion of < the annual reports
ot the different members. The more 1m-
portant reports from the Treasury , War and
Navy departments have not jet been made
public and these worn given consideration
at the session today. The president also
discussed various features ot hU mcus.ige.
The two jubjpctB which engaged the spe
cial attention ot the cabinet were those re
lating to the manner In which the Cuban
pioblem and the question ot the finances
should be handled In the president's mes
sage. The opinion was Kencrally expressed
that the Cuban situation as It affects the
United States was even more favorable than
could 'be expected , and there waa especial
good feeling over the release of the crow
ot the Competitor. Thin and other conces
sions were accepted as Indicating n genuine
desire on the part of .tho.Sag.ma administra
tion to meet the wishes of the authorities ot
this country and bring the w-ar to a hasty
termination.
If there was any doubt expressed as lo
Spain's maintenance ot this line of policy ,
It was not made public , but there was no dis
senting opinion that aa long as that country
should continue In Its course of conciliation
there was nothing left for -the administration
but to encourage It.
A wide variety of opinion was developed
among the members of the cabinet as to the
policy to bo recommended on the financial
question. There were Indeed almost as many
views expressed on the details Involved In
the discussion of this question as there were
cabinet members present. Their differences
related , however , largely to the details , and
much of the conversation turned upon the
CROCKERY AND GLASSWARE.
