Sioux Falls, S. Dak., April 25, 1898, Hon. John W. Griggs, Attorney-General, Washingtmi, D. C. Dear Sir: Answering your favor, which reached me in the midst of the Sioux Falls term, I w^ould have answered sooner, but am negotiating with the attorneys for the plaintiff with a view of having the entire proceedings held up until final action is determined by the Department in the premises, the attor- neys stating to me that the Department had ordered a further examination. My suggestion as to the ...issuance of a new order is therefore entirely unnec- essary. I am satisfied I now have the matter in hand with the attorneys, so that in case the former action of the Department is afiirmed I can put in an answer for Agent Couchman and proceed as if he was not in default. Yours, respectfully, Jas. D. Elliott, United States Attorney , South Dakota. Department of Justice, Washington, D. C, April 11, 1898. James D. Elliott, Esq., United States Attorney, Sioux Falls, S. Dak. Sir : The Department does not fully comprehend the meaning of that portion of your second letter of the 26th ultimo in which, referring to the action insti- tuted in a State court in South Dakota by Esther Rousseau against Peter Couchman, agent at the Cheyenne River Agency, growing out of the condemna- tion of certain horses, you ask whether it would not be better to ** issue a new order to the agent who will doubtless qualify very soon." You are on the ground and in a position to be better acquainted with the necessities of the case and the local public service than the Department is, and what is best to be done in the matter is left to your discretion.
