Respectfully forwarded to the A.A. Genl Mil. Div. Mo. for the information of the Lt. General Comdg. It is difficult to determine what Indians there are. The latest report from Ft. Sid? says that all the Indians belong-ing to there are at home. They are certainly not from Mexico. It is stated that the Indian Agent near Ft. Stanton gives passes for thirty days to his Indians to hunt on the staked plains. If this is true those are probably his Indians acting with some of the unknown not belonging to any reservation. Hope Morrow will find out who they are.
