partment and for fulfilling treaty stip
ulations with various Indian tribes ,
for the fiscal year 1883 , and tor other
purposes , " approved May KJ , 1882 ,
which roads no follows :
"That the secretary of the interior
shall cause such Indians as are now
being flubiatid in whole or in part by
appropriations not required in dis-
clmrgo ot treaty obligations , to be no
tified that ho will rooommend to con
gress at its next session n diminution
of such appropriation ; that in CUIIHO-
qnonco thereof their future support

In compliance with the aboyo you

quirod by this act of congress , ussnre
them that while the government is
disposed to treat thorn kindly , oven
generously , and to extend to them
every needed assistance to enable them

member there is now no treaty or
other obligation on the part of the
government to support them ; that
what they are now receiving is purely
gift ; that llieromust cuino a time whoii
they will bo expected to laborfor their

Arequipa is a well known city in

the seat of the Peruvian government
by Vice President Mentor , who has
been acting PS president of Peru since
the carrying away of President Cald-
oren in November last , Mr , Elmoro
said the news did not much surprise
him , because he had boon expecting
something of the kind in in view of

proller to ourrondor , It is u lengthy
dooumunt , lloaiya lie is prompted
to this act through consideration for
his wife mid children r.nd n desire to
retrieve hii namu from the shadow
which has been cast upon it nnd
through it upon a food many in
western Missouri JIu makes n plea
that ho is not BO bad as ho
has been painted , that an outlaw
has the thoughts and impulse of man
und he hau decided to return to the
homo of his parents and there with
his family to pass his days In peace
and thun gainrespcct of his fellowmen ,
Ho thinks it unnecessary at present
to recount thu history of his life ,
Those who are his frionda < ire already
acquainted with it , The public at
pro&ent is not disposed to judtu ; him
charitably Ho thinks that his sulfur-
ings have already done punishment
for his acts. Ho denies tlio author
ship of any litters threatening as
sassination in retaliation for
for the murder of Jessie , which
have been attributed to him. Ho
submitted thu question whether Frank
James , humbled , repentant and re
formed before the world , will not bean
an example moro fraught with good to
the rising generation than Frank
James , the outlaw and wanderer.
Ho ays this letter n the result of a
determination forinul during U'o past
four yeanj of industrious farm life ,
which ho has spent , lie asks for
amnesty , if pcsiible , and states an an
swer will reach him thruugh hu wife ,
who is at Independence , Mo.
On receipt of the letter , Governor

Special Dispatch to Tin Ilisx.
WASHINGTON , October 5. The np-
proachiiii ; sosuion of the aupromo
court Araa thu mouna to-day of un
earthing an incident in the history of
Associate Justice Field which has
probably nut yet boon publinhod.
Passing down the avenue your cor
respondent was stopped by n dealer in
lire-arms , sporting traps and other
. paraphanalin , and asked if ho had cron
i the infernal machine that had buun
sent to Judge Field. Ho was taken
into the rear of the store and a CASO
otdagucrjcotypps ; was lying.-eij the
" * "
"Ext-mino ' " ldKo" !
counter. - this"iji >
dealer , "and tell mo what you think
of it. " A close inspection showed that
concealed in this case were ion metal
lic cartridges with their sides Glcd
exposing powder and firmly embedded
in wax. An ordinary picco of nand
paper was connected with the rasp in
the c&se , which if opened from the
front would cause the ignition of 0
bundle of matches. Tha case , however -
over , had boon opened from thu beck ,
and the infernal instrument hud failed
to accomplish its design. A clipping
front a newspaper pouted in the case
detailed an account of a decision by
Judge Field regarding the title to cer
tain property in San Francisco , and it
is oupposud that the machine was the
contrivance of uomn disappointed liti
gant. Further inquiry showed
that thu package c\mo by
mail , but was regarded with
suspicion by the inmates of Field's '
residence , nnd the parcel wna plncad
over night in n pail of water. After
ward it was pried open from behind ,
and the deadly nature of Itn contontn
divulged. Had any ono forced the
clap open , as ia the custom in hand
ling small cases of this kind , nothing
short of n miracle could have prevented -
vented the discharge of the metallic
cartridge ,
