What was the last battle between the American Indians and the federal troops?

The Pine Ridge Campaign (November 1890 -- January 1891) led to the last major conflict with the Sioux which resulted in the Wounded Knee "Massacre" on December 29, 1890. I personally have trouble with the word "massacre", since to me the battle was the result of an Indian who would not give up his rifle, a failure in command, and inexperienced soldiers who opened fire without orders often shooting there own men. This lead to a general outburst of firing. At the end 150 men, women, and children of the Sioux had been killed and 51 wounded; twenty-five soldiers also died, thirty-nine were wounded (6 of the wounded would also die). If you plan a massacre you don't count on killing your own people. There were two small skirmishes later, 1) October 5, 1898, Leech Lake, Minnesota at the Battle of Sugar Point; 2) the battle of Bear Valley, Arizona when the cavalry engaged and captured a band of Yaquis Jan 9, 1918.
