Gntbrie, 0. T., Sept. L'Of Act
ing under instructions from At
torney ' General Griggs, united
States Indian Agent Kandlctt, at
Anadarko, has issued orders to
the Indian police to clear the
Kiowa and Comanche reservation
of srospectors and miners who
are at work in the Wichita moon
tntna. The intruders were remov
ed once befon-, but they after
wards secured an injunction at
El Keno restraining the agent
from interfering with them, on
ground that the act of Jane 6 de
clared the mining laws to be in
effect on the reservation from
Washington a copy of an opinion
of the attorney general's depart
ment, which concludes as follows:
"The country is siill an Indian
reservation and it is necessary to
the peiforniance by the United
Stages of the obligations assum
ed in said agreement that it
9'nonld remain in the state of a
reservation until those obligations
shall have been discharged by a full
compliance therewith. It is still
Indian country and under the jury)
diction of this department. The re
moval of any percon from Indian
country rests with the discretion of
the Indian agent, and the commiss
ioner of Indian affairs, under the
provisions of the secretary of the
interior.
Colonel Eandeltt is virtually in
structed by the attorney general to
disregard tile instructions of the
court, and there will be some lively
times on the reservation. If the
miners resist the police troops will
be Bent from Fort Sill, as the de
partment is determined to keep ev
erybody out until the day of the
opening and give everybody an
equal show.

Galveston, Sep. 20.-This even
ing Mayor Jones proclaimed that
martial law would cease tomorrow
aud the civil authorities would
assume direction of municipal af
fairs. This was done at the sug
gestion of General Scurry, who ex
pressed the belief that couditions
had reached such a stage that
the civil aulhorites were able to
cope with the sttuation. This
however does not mean the imme

Since martial law has prevailed
inGalvestou good order Jias re
sulted. It was feared in some
quarters that when it became
known that the militia has given
way to civil authority the looting
and robtery began after the storm
and continued under the declara
tion of the martial law might re
commense. The military forces
will be used as a check on this
character of crime, however and
will in all probability remain here
for the next ttreuty days. The
shootiug of negroes by military
men for lootiue has had a most
salutary effect aud has in a meas
ure terorized the offenders,' still
there are cases of robbery report
ed daily, which are being dealt
with severely.
