Hi, Mark.  I'm pretty sure it's Hidatsa.  The Crow for 14 is axpi'shoopa, and I think the Hi is axpi'toopa.  John Boyle can confirm this.

Aloha All, 
We are entering Dorsey's slip file data and have encountered a couple of cognate abbreviations that are unfamiliar to us. 

The regulars on his list include 
  
T-under x c-under x: Tciwere 
Os. Osage 
K. Kaw 
D. Dakota 
W. Winnebago 
Kw. Quapaw 

The following entry is from the Omaha number 14 agthiNduba. Any guesses on the Hi. language being referenced? 

Problem: Cognate entry with abbreviation: Hi. aqpi-çopa (eqpi-tçopa) What is the Hi. designation? 

At first glance we are thinking HIDATSA? 

However, a couple of other slips have the cognate abbreviation H. but so far have been empty so I cannot provide an example. 

Thanks!
