The Act of February 8, 1887 now applies to the Confederated Wea, Peoria, Kaskaskia, and Piankeshaw tribes, and to the Western Miami tribe. It covers these tribes and their reservation in the former Indian Territory the same way it would if they had never been excepted from it. Section 349 of this title still does not apply to them.

This section extends the Act of February 8, 1887, to specific tribes: the Confederated Wea, Peoria, Kaskaskia, and Piankeshaw tribes of Indians, and the Western Miami tribe of Indians. These tribes are located in the northeastern part of the former Indian Territory, and the extension covers their reservation too. The 1887 Act now applies to them in the same manner and to the same extent as if they had never been excepted from it. There are two limits: section 349 of this title still does not apply to them, and any other exception stated elsewhere in this law ("as otherwise hereinafter provided") still applies.
