JACKSON'S HOLE.

Killlnur itaiinock Indian!* Referred to |%Hrtni«iit of Justice* ^^ifiJMoN, Aug. 21.—Tjlie jefiestion of what action should be taken by the government in connection jWitli the killing of-1the Bannock Indiansrin the Jackson's: Hole country oii^July 13 last, has been referred to the department o£-justice. It is understood that a communication 011 the subject was forwarded thero yesterday afternoon, which recites the circumstances in the case and ends with a strong recommendation for an investigation of the matter by the department of justice.

It is understood that the attorney general was asked to send special agents to Jackson's Hole and that the services of the Indian inspectors were offered as assistants. Agent Tetor probably will probably not form part of the commission, as he has taken so prominent a pare in the troubles that tlie settlers are greatly prejudiced against him.

It is believed that the arrest of certain settlers by the United States authorities lias^een recommended so that tlie case may oe brought into court and the relative treaty with the Bannocks and of the laws of Wyoming may be judicially determined.

The Quay men are not giving any estimate of the number Qf delegates that they expect to get from Philadelphia, but it is known they are counting on from 18 to ?o. Mr. Quay said that even if he were disappointed in his hopes in Philadelphia, he could win without the city.
