THE SITUATION.

BISMAHPK N. D., Nov. 25.—The Indians at tho Standing Uock agency aro beginning to concoivo the idea which tho less excited whites have tried to explain to thom, that their Meoslitn Is a false expression concocted by Sitting Hull and his prophets to gain a supposed power and following. Sitting Bull's failure to come to the agoncy for his rations strengthens this belief. Bull had named tho timo and place for tho Messiah to appear, which timo has passed, and they wore greatly disappointod. With tho exception of about a dozen they havo ceased to beliovo that Sitting Bull has any power or any connection with their Messiah, and some aro inclined to beliovo that the Messiah will not appear.

All is reported quiot at Standing Rock. A white visitor at Sitting Bull's camp Monday was handled rather roughly by tho dancers, and returned convinced that the Indians aro in oarnest in their bolief in tho Messiah craze. An employe of tho agency claims to havo had a vision of tho Christ whilo visiting the camp on Grand rivor. Tho scouting party on tho oast of tho river has not yet returned. No furthor demonstrations have been ir.ado against tho sottiers between tho agoncy and Mandan, and they aro returning to their homes. But tho activity of the military authorities is doing more to quiot tho apprchonsions of the settlors than tlio word from tho agency.

Major McLaughlin Is in a happy framo of mind over tho condition of aHairs. Tho only trouble is the Messiah .'action may compel the others to believe as they do. Tho Indians who aro loyal to tho Government aro as much afraid of tho Messiah Indians as tho white people. Tho stampede on the other side of tho rivor, in which 500 famllios left home and (led for thoir lives to Eureka and other towns within a radius of fifty miles, was caused by a woman living at La Grange, who was riding along tho river and saw a small number of Indians on a sand bar yelling.
