He had been to Washington once and bad been treated well, and he thought the great father could save him. When he was told there was no hope from that source, he crossed his hands and began pleading. . ‘The march was resumed, and Sitanta and Satank were placed in prison and guarded day and night. They were inâ€" dicted and brought to trial before Judge Charles Soward. The two chiefs were fully advised of their rights by the court through an interpreter. Counsel was apâ€" pointed for their defense. ‘Thomas Ball and W. Wolfolk appeared for the chiefs. "Except for their manacles," said Judge Lanham, "no white men ever bad fairer trials. But it was considered unsafe to bring them into court without bandcuffs, for they were the most powerful men Iâ€" ever saw." ‘The chiefs insisted, on ac count of their rank, upon appearing in their war paint, and in their war dress they were tried. ‘They were convicted mm told by the interpreter of the court that they could speak if they so wished. Satanta was the first to avail himself of this right. General Sherman was on the frontier inspecting government posts and came upou the scene a few hours after the fight. He examined the arrows found in the dead, and by reason of his familiarity with the customs of various tribes he said the hrrow marks were those of the Kiowas. White men in battle are disâ€" tinguished by their flag. Indians paint the characters of their tribe on their arâ€" rows. General Sherman hastened to Fort Sill and informed the civil authorities, inâ€" sisting that they should follow up the massacre and bring the perpetrators to trial. A few days later Satanta, Satank and Big Tree went to Fort Sill to draw government supplies. ‘They had a powâ€" wow, the result of mean whisky. Satanâ€" ta mounted a dry goods box and boasted that be and Satank and Big Tree had killed seven Tehanas (Texans) and were sorry they bad not killed more. A govâ€" erument interpreter heard the specch and reported to the civil authorities. Arrest followed, and the three chiefs woere startâ€" ed, bandcuffed, under stroug guard to Jacksboro. On the march Big Trce, whose powerful physique gave him his name, tore away his bandcuffs and alone made a ferocious attack upon the guard. He fought with such desperation that he was killed. Batanta, Satank and Big Tree were Kiowa chiefs, The trial of the first two for the murder of seven teamsters in Texas in 1871 was the last motuble one in which Indians figured, Buch a trial at this time would iaterest the whole eountry. Occurring at an early day, at a place remote from telegraph facilities and from railway communication, it was EtUe known beyond the town where the chiefs were arraigned in their war paint. They were desperate men, and the safety of the court, lawyers and witnesses required that the chiefs should appear manacied. Judge Samue!l W. T.
