Excerpt from The Condition of Affairs in Indian Territory and California: A Report The letters furnished me by the Secretary of War secured from Col. Sumner, of Reno; Col. Pierson, of Ft. Sill; and Gen. Miles, of Los Angeles, all the aid that could be given me in furtherance of the objects of my visit, and the hospitalities of the first two were unstinted and most generous. A similar letter was given me by the Secretary of the Interior, requiring of the officials of the several Agencies visited by me all the assistance they could give consistent with the discharge of their duties. Excepting at one Agency, this did not secure to me any very special attention, possibly all that could be given consistently with more urgent duties. Stopping at Arkansas City, in Kansas, to visit the Indian School at Chilocco, near that city, I found the Senate Committee appointed to investigate certain scandals in connection with Indian Traderships, in semion at that point. A large number of traders, ear-traders, Agents, Ex-agents and others acquainted with the condition of things were gathered here, affording unusual Opportunities for picking up information such as I was seeking.
