THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, FRIDAY, JANUARY 9, 1891.

Fort Kcogh, Mont, Yankton Charlie, one of Bntt'alo Bill's men. now employed a scout, says Lieutenant Casey had started oat to visit tbe hostile to induce thechiefs to come in to talk with General Brooke. He passed a small band of Ocallalas. who were butchering cattle, and proceeded further, followed, howeter, by two of the Indians, who appeared to bo lriendly. He was shortly afterwards met by Pete Richards, son-in-law of lied Cloud, who had been sent by the latter to warn him not to approach. nearer the hostile, becau.ft it was dangerona. Casy said he would ride to tbe top of a little knoll where he could get a view to the hostile camp. Richards dissuaded him, and he and Casey turned arnnud and departed. Jnst then Richards heard a shot, and turning back saw Casey fall from his horse, the bnllet passing tbroagh the latter' 8 bead. The shot was fired by the younger of the two OgallabYs who had followed Casey. Richards would have shot tbe murderer, but hi& cartridges did not fit his gun. Red Cloud came into tbe agency this morning, and General Miles has appointed an hour to hold a conference with him. The old man stepped out of the hostile camp last night, and with his wife walked sixteen miles to this place. General Miles is hopeful that his example will be followed by others. Colonel Kent, inspector-general of the Department of Dakota, and Colonel Raidwin are ascertaining all facts relative to the tight on Wounded Knee creek. This is not, as has been stated, a court of inquiry. No charges have been made against Colonel Forsytbe for his conduct in that engagement, nor has be been placed tinder arrest. Colonel Raker, of Omaha, and Major Comegys, of Cheyenne, are here to pay the troops in tbe field. It.will require io000. Colonel Shafer, who has been on sick leave, has returned. Medical Inspector Bache revbrts twenty-Gve wounded Indians and fifteen soldiers in the hospital. General Colby, of the Nebraska State Militia, has eighteen companies protecting the towns of Valentine, Cody, Gordon, Rnshville, Hay Springs, Cbadron. Crawford and Harrison, extending 150 miles along the western border of the Pine Ridge and Rosobnd agencies. The companies comprise 1.700 men. Buftalo Bill is assistant to Gen. Colby, and arrived at the agency to-day to confer with General Miles.

Father Craft Recovering. New York, Jan. a General Obeiraereceived a telegram to-day from Father Craft, at Pine Ridge agency, statins that he is much better, and expects to recover. TROUBLE IN IDAHO. Bannocks and Shoshone Ready to Go on the War-rath Fears for the Safety of Pocatello. Boise Cur, Ida,, Jan. 8. Advices re- , ceived from Pocatello, Ida., state that the Indians on the Fort Hall reserve have been dancing, and two hundred in war-paint have taken to the mountains with arms, ' causing great excitement. Governor Wiley has been asked to order the militia to Pocatello, and probably a company of United States cavalry at Boise barracks will be sent there. The Indians on the reserva- - tion number 1,200 or 1,500, more than half of whom are Bannocks, the tribe that caused the prolonged war twelve years ago. The people of Pocatello have few arms, and the towns of Blackfoot and Eagle Rock are on the border of the reservation. The Indians who took to the mountains are working eastward toward Wyoming. The belief is expressed that if the Indians at Pocatello go on tho war-patb they will be joined by . the tribes On Lemhi reservation, who number 500, embracing 125 able-bodied bocks. One report says the Indians are burning Pocatello, but another dispatch denies the story. There is considerable excitement there and at Blackfoot over the hostile attitude of the Bannocks. Governor Wiley has received the following from Blackfoot: "A meeting of citizens, under call of the commander of the G. A. R., resolved to request yon to forward ns immediately guns, with the usual equipments and ammunition. Danger is possible and no arms are available, A permanent military organization is about to be perfected.'7 Governor Wiley accordingly has jnst shipped by express fifty guns and three thousand rounds . of ammunition. General Manager Ressegue and Superintendent Ryder, of the Union Pacific railroad, telegraphed from Pocatello, to-day, to Governor Willey, stating that there is . danger of an Indian outbreak on the reservation, and requesting that troops be sent to that place, and that they are ready to furnish transportatiou. Another dispatch from Pocatello says the town is in a great state of excitement pver the action of tbe Shoshone Indians on tbe reservation. Last night they indulged in a war-dance and otherwise evinced a desire for bloodshed. The chief, Mayer Jim, de- . clarer. that the Indians would tight, giving as his reason that the "Bad Indians get heap grub aud blankets; good Indian gets nothing. Indian heap mad; will tight." The advices further say that the Indians declare that they will go on the war-path. The Indians are on the rampage and the people are fleeing from the city for safety. The Indians am in war paint and cannot be restrained. The Governor's Guards and the United States cavalry at Boise City huve been notified to repair to Pocatello as soon ns possible, and by this time they are thought to be en route. The town is in4 a state of wildest confusion. The place is almost entirely destitnte of arms, and a fore" of not over two hundred men is all that cun be mustered for service. The ranchmen aud cowboys from the sur rounding country nru assembling to the . rescue. 3 Kequents from Blackfoot, Ida., for transFortation of arms have been sent to the fnion Pacific authorities. The people of Pocatello are pleading with the railroad othcials for trains to remove their families from the town. The young bucks have been gathering all day, and one cowboy reports a band ot' two nundred pillaging the ranches outside of the town of Blackfoot. An old squaw said to-night that the bucks are gathering in big bauds, and will make trouble. It is expected that by to-morrow a sufficient force will be mustered to cope with the savages in case of attack. If a movement is made before that time by tbe indiaus it cannot result otherwise than disastrously to the people. A dispatch from Washington sajs that up to noon to-day the Indian officials had not received any information ot tbe trouble at the Fort Hall reservation, in Idaho. The last census shows that this reservation it occupied by about 1,057 Shoshone Indians and a band of Bannocks numbering M.'J. These Indians, especially the Bannocks, are said to be a restless tribe, not easily governed. The town of Pocatello, which is in this reservation, has in the neighborhood of 2.500 inhabitants. The - Indians receive yearly as a gratuity from the government 1250.000 pounds of beef gross, 150.00C pounds of llour, 00,000 pounds of sugar and small quantities of bacon, coiiee and salt. Clothing is furnished, and the tribe is under the treaty obligations. Yellow Horse and Swift Rear for War. Springview, NeU,. Jan. a Chief Yellow Horse, former lieutenant of the Indian police at Rosebud agency, passed through this town to-day with a considerable following. When asked if he was not afraid to meet the warring elements of his tribo he replied: "No; we are all hoAtiles now." Yellow Horse was supposed to be a friendly. Swift Bear and his band, formerly of the same agency, have also declared for war. Both chiefs are supposed to be bearing for the hostile camp near Pine Ridge. An Outbreak of 3Iaquakes Feared. Waterloo, la., Jan. 8. It is reported that the Musquake Indians, located in the southern part of Tama county, have an attack of the Messian craze, and there is apt to be an outbreak at any time. There are about three hundred of them. The Governor's Greys, the Muscatine Rilles and two companies of State guards have been ordered iu readiness, and it is expected that the company here will receive orders very soon. Ghost Dance In Star Valley. Wells, Nev., Jan. 8. About two hundred Snake and Shoshone Indians left this vicinity yesterday and to-day to attend a ghost dance in Star valley, at the head of Humboldt river. Chief Soldier Charlie claims there is no danger of an outbreak miles the government attempts to stop the

dance and torce the Indians to remain on the reservation. It is unusual to hold dances at this time of the year. Views of Major Anderson. Siorx City, la,, Jan. a Maj. W. W. Anderson, of Chamberlain, S. D., has just come iu from the Bad Lands, where he saw maoy of tho hostile Indians. He has their confidence and is widely known among them, as he 'was Indian agent at tbe Crow Creek and Lower Bntte agencies up to a year ago. He says that the violation of the Sioux treaty of 1STG is the real cause of the trouble. He knows personally that in many cases the Indians did lack food, and did not receive the rations to which they were entitled. The ghost dance is a hoax but has been used by some of the leaders to intluence the young men. ' Major Anderson puts much of the blame for the trouble on Agent Royer. who. instead of firmly quelling it ran away at Rushville, and called for troops, and then when he went back to the agency with troops, was harsh

and irritating towards the Indians. . OFFICAL DISPATCHES, General Miles's Account of the Killing of Casey A Summary of the Situation. Washington, Jan. a General Schofield this morning received the following telegram from General Miles, dated Pine Ridge agency, Jan. 8: "Seventy Indians came in from the hostile camp to-day, and reports from them are that Red Cloud, Little Wound, Two Strike, Big Road and others will come in to-morrow." Later in the day General Schofield received another telegram from General Miles detailing the circumstances of the killing of Lieutenant Casey by the Indians, as follows: "Reports from General Brooke state that Lieutenant E. W. Casey, of , the Twentysecond Infantry, was killed .yesterday. There has been fighting and skirmishing on that part of the line for several days. Lieutenant Casey was out with his scouts watching the hostile camp, and, with one Cheyenne, met two Indians, an Ogallala and a Br lie. The Ogallala warned Lieut. Casey that tbe Brnles were bad and would shoot. As Lieutenant Casey turned to go away the Brule fired, striking him in the back of the head and killing him instantly. Lieutenant Casey vwas one of the most brilliant and beloved officers of the service. There is a report of heavy firing in or near the hostile camp that may be between the two elements of the Indians." Secretary Proctor said this morning: 'I do not know when 1 have heard anything that has shocked me more than the news of Lieutenant Casey's death. He was here In the spring and I grew very fond of him, be seemed so bright and energetic and enthusiastic, and he had such excellent plans and ideas about the Indian trouble. lie gave me a number oi photographs which I have here, showing his methods of work with his band of scouts, getting out logs to build their little camps near Fort Keogb. I regarded him as one of the most promising men in the service. He seems to have been brutally murdered, for there was no fighting going on when be was killed. An Indian took advantage of a conversation with him and shot him from behind. His remains will be sent Fast for interment in 'Rhode Island." The first dispatch might indicate that the Indian camp is disintegrating, were it not for the fact that the Indians mentioned have generally been peaceably inclined. The seventy Indians reported to haye come in are very likely the "friendlies" who were swept out to the hostile camp by the others when the last rush took place. Of the chiefs named.' Two Strike is the only one who has ever exhibited much of a hostile temper, and even be has been inclined to listen to peace talk. It is understood that his two sons, who were educated at the Carlisle school, have been endeavoring to get their father to return to the agency. and it is probably through their efiorts that he is thinking of a surrender. Tbe situation, as summed up at the Interior Department to-day, is about as follows: There are, in all, about twenty thousand Sioux Indians men, women and children on the northern reservations. Of this number 16,500 are accounted for, as they are living on tbe reservations and not taking any part in the present disturbance. This leaves about 8,500 men. women and children to face the earthworks, the howitzers and the eight thousand men now under command of General Miles. The hostile camp is located about seventeen miles north of the agency, and tbe cordon of troops surrounds the hostile camp with the exception of the south side, the object be ing to drive the Indians into the reservation. There is constant communication between the hostile camp and the agency. The hostiles are well supplied with beef. but they have no sugar or coffee, except as they are supplied by tae friendlies. While the situation is regarded as a hope less one lor the Indians, yet it is believed that they have no intention of surrender ing. From repojts received at the Interior Department the situation is believed to be tense, and the people of the ageney are very much disturbed. The President to-day appointed Cant. Francis E. Pierce, First lufantry. United Mates army, to no agent of the Indians at the Pine Ridge reservation, vice Mr. Royer. removed. Secretary Noble this morning - .11 Al A A - A. T sen i a uispnicu 10 .agent jtoyer. aismissing him from service. The Secretary directs him to turn over the property to Captain Pierce. While Agent Rover's ability toTerfonn the duties of his position in ordinary times is not questioned, yet since the present disturbances began he has failed, it is said, to show the nerve which the situation requires, and General Milts seemed to think that he ought to have entire control of the territory of the seat of war. Secretary Noble and the Indian othcials are anxious to do everything that would contribute to the suppression of the disturbance, and have directed tbe Indian agents to co-oper ate with the military in every possible way. This is now being done, and in order to insure the proper management of a flairs at Pine Ridge. Agent Royer has been dismissed and Captain Pierce will take his place. Secretary Noble said to-day that he was in perfect accord with Secretary Proctor in regard to the policy to be pursued in the management of the turbulent tribes of the Northwi&t. The Secretary s:iid that he had endeavored to do everything in his power to bring this disturbance to an end. The rations had been supplied promptly and in sufficient quantity. His officers were acting in harmony with the troops. and. in fact, a nnited effort was being made to give to General Miles every facility for carrying on nis operations. Friendly Indians to, Be Drilled. Special to tbe Indianapolis Journal. Wasiiixotox. Jan. 8. Representative Pickler, of South Dakota, was informed to-' day,, by the officials of the War Depart-J ment that an officer of the army would be assigned to the Vermillion Indian agency. in his State, to act as drill-master 'of the Indians. It is proposed to utilize the serv ices of Indians, as far as possible, in the present war in the Northwest. The Indian scouts have proven so courageous, skillful and patriotic in tbe present trouble, that the friendlies are to be recognized in every way possiDie Dy ine government. PLENTY OF RATIONS. ' Mr. Clsney, of Indiana, Says the Indians Are Tell Fed All Quiet on the Cheyenne. Pierre, S. D.t Jan. 8. James H. Cisney, of Warsaw, Ind., arrived in this city last evening from Montana, He is inspector of Indian agencies, and to-day went to Chey enne agency. He has inspected all the agencies of the Sioux except the Cheyenne. lie says at Standing Rock the Indians are fed in splendid shape, and certainly have nothing to complain of. Indeed, every agency feeds its Indians in good shape, and nowhere has he found rations short ex cept at Rosebud and Pine Ridge. At these two appropriations have been delayed in passing, but by this time those who are be having themselves are getting everything thev need. John Holland, chief of Indian sconts of the Cheyenne country, arrived in the city to-day. and reports everything quiet on the Cheyenne. There are now stationed at b ort bully four companies of soldiers, who have in charge 2-J3 of Sitting Bulls war riors. There are also three companies of

infantry at Fort Bennett and four compa

nies at Cheyenne City, fifty miles west of Fort isennett. All the Cheyenne Indians are now at the agency, with tho exception of those from Big Foot's and Hump's bands who went on the war-path, and they were nearly all killed In the late battle. Rev. Joseph Bird. Indian minister from Big Foot s hostile camp on tho Cheyenne, was in for medicine. He reports the Cheyenne country almost deserted of Indians, the able-bodied being either at the agency or oil the war-path. Many of the old uud sick are lelt to snilt for themselves. ROCHESTER SHOEMAKERS. Many of the Locked-Out Employes Return to Work its Non-Unlunlita. ' Rochester, N. Y Jan. 8. The strike among the shoemakers in Rochester is evidently on its last legs. The manu facturers who declared tbe lock-out are getting their shops into running order very rapidly.- About all the girls who were locked out have gone back as non-union hands, and a great many of the men have also gone to work. Members of the Shoe Council do not deny this, and say that within a very short time they expect that all the locked-out men will be .back at work in their old shops. They explain this by vague talk about agreements with the manufacturers, and say that ail they want is that the lock-out shall be declared oil'. They insist, however. that the Cox strike will never be declared off. The manufacturers are unanimous in declaring that their rules will never be altered so as to al low their old employes to come back to work as union men until the Cox strike is declared off. Meanwhile nobody on either side attempts to deny that the old employes are going back to work in numbers daily. i Grievances of Panhandle Employes. Pittsburg, Jan. 8. The grievances of tbe trainmen which have been -presented to the local superintendents of the Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg, and also to the Pittsburg & .Western road, extend to all divisions from this city to Chicago and St. Louis. These grievances were prepared about two months ago, but for 'the reason that many changes were being made in the system of running trains they were not presented then. Owing to the extent of the systems it will be some time before any action will be taken on the matter. The freight t radio is so slack now that the officials say there will be more likely be a de crease in wages than an increase in any in stance. The engineers ask for an increase in wages and overtime. This class of trainmen ask that sixty to 100 miles be considered a trip, whereas they now run eightyone and eighty-three miles on Division A, freight work, and 189 miles ou passenger trams. Against this advances in pay are asked. For yard-work ten hours is a'day's work, a reduction from twelve, which is in. itself an advance, aud is not computed in differences below. Day conductors ask for $2.75, a decreaseof 12 cents, but an advance, considering the reduction of hours asked. Overtime. 274 cents per hour, which means a further increase in wages, since a day's work cannot be done in ten boors. Night yard conductors ask $2.00 to S3, and 29 cents per -hour overtime: day yard brakemen $2.50, an advance of 34 cents over present pay; night yard Dragomen 22.jp, an advance of 42 cents per day. For road-work proporuouaie advances are asaeu. Want Their Wages Restored. Chicago, Jan. 8. The wages of one bun-! dred agents and telegraph operators of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul road were recently reduced about 15 per cent. The five hundred men in that class on the entire system signed a petition asking that the wages be restored. The company de manded tbe withdrawal of the men's names from the petition or their resigna tions. 1 he operators and agents say they are thoroughly organized, and that unless their committee, which il) come to Chicago to confer with the officials, succeed in having wages restored, they will all resign. 1 he committee of engineers and firemen. .headed by Chief Arthur and Master Workman Sargent, were again in conference with General Manager Earling" to-day, but at a late hour this evening no agreement had been reached on the question of anew schedule of wages. v ..vlr,r.,..l- ; Non-TJnlonUts Persuaded to Quit.

SEVERE WEATHER IN EUROPE

Belgium, France, Germany, Italy and Austria in thtfThroesof a Cold Wave. Great Damage to Shipping from Floating Ice Progress of the Scotch Railway Strike Revolution in Chill, COLD WAVE IN EUROPE. Unusually Severe Weather Ererywhere-Many Persons Frozen to Death. Brussels. Jan. 8. The coast of Belgium, notably in the neighborhood of Ostend and Blankenbergh, presents a remarkable appearance during the present extremely cold weather. Large blocks of ice are washing about the shore, and many vessels are forced by the ice to remain in port. Paris, Jan: 8. Bitterly cold weathGf pre vails here and is causing much distress among the poorer classes. The bodies of three persons who had been frozen to death during the night were picked up in the streets this morning. Hamburg, Jan. 8. The severity of the weather her and throughout the northern part of Germany is causing much suffering. A number of sailing vessels are ice bound in the lower Elbe. Many of them are known to bo short of provisions and there are no means of rendering them assistance. Twenty ships are now drifting about in the ice, helpless under the fury 01 a bitter northeaster. The Hamburg Underwriters' Association has urged the German government to officially declare the Elbe closed to navigation. The steamers Kafiraria, Platesi and Borkum have been wrecked in the ice. The crews were saved. Other craft now in the river are in great danger. Vienna, Jan. 8. At the port of Fiume traffic of all kinds has been almost entirely suspended on account of the severe cold weather and heavy snow-falls. On all the railways centering here the trains are at a stand-still. Rome. Jan. 8. A dispatch from Mantua says that snow has been continuously falling there for fifty hours, and that it is reforted that several persous have lost their ives in the storm and all trains are several hours late. v REVOLUTipN IN CHILL Alleged Tyrannical Conduct of the President Said to Have Caused the Outbreak. Nfv York, Jan. 8. Dispatches were re ceived here to-day announcing that a revo lution has broken out in .Chili. Mr. Jeffrey, of the firm of Flint & Co., was seen. and said: "We have had several letters and also some later dispatches which give the story of the difficulty nretty fully. The whole trouble is between the President and Congress. The people, through Congress, want some laws made which will be eoncessions to the lower classes. The President refuses to call Congress together, and does not desire the laws made. 1 suppose tne overbearing and tyrannical action of the President has exasperated the publio and led to the rnmors of an outbreak which yon haye heard. Exchange is down to 22 pence, which is the lowest it has been for years." The Chilian legation at London discredits the report of a revolution. NO SETTLE MENT IN SIGHT. Scotch Hallways Still Hampered for JLack of ' Men Backsliding Strikers Assaulted. Glasgow, Jan. 8. Another day in the history of the great Scotch railway strike has opened without any signs of definite improvement in the situation being shown. The railroad directors have repeatedly an nounced that the strike was practically over; that the strikers were beaten and that the usual traffic npon all the lines had been resumed. These statements were be lieved at first, but now It seems that the utterances of the railroad officials were not correct. In and about this neighborhood there are still about 6.000 men on strike, and in spite of tbe statements made by the companies' representatives tho freight traffic is not being improved. On the other band, the strikers are continually receiving financial and moral support from the various trade-unions throughout Great Britain. Though the sums received by each striker are small, and far from being sufficient to keep their families from su tiering, the aid received enables them to keep up the tight against the railroad companies. Ihe general publio is longing for some kind of a settlement to be arrived at between the companies and their employes. Ihe othcials of tbe Caledonia railroad. In a manifesto issued this morning, promised to consider the grievances of the strikers who would promptly resume work. In reply' to this promise a number of engine drivers and firemen returned to work during the afternoon. This action on the part of the men referred to created a small riot. The so-called deserters from tbe ranks of the strikers were hooted at and pelted with stones by those of the strikers who determined not to surrender. The railroad officials called npon the police to protect the men who had gone back to work. Ihe police then cbargefi the strikers and arrested six of the ringleaders. The captured strikers were taken to a police station in the vicinity of the disturbance, followed by a mob of howling men. women and chil dren. Tbe six prisoners were locked up, and will be charged with riotous conduct. It is feared by their friends that tbe magistrates will deal severely with them. ENRAGED FRENCH CLERKS. They Ruin a German Grocer's Business Be cause lie Employed One of His Countrymen. T0ULQU8E, Jan. 8. An ex-German officer named Lind, who formerly served in a Ba varian regiment of tue line, pud who now is attached to the German army reserve, owned until yesterday a flourishing grocery store in this city. He was moderately popular, considering that he was a German doing business in a French town. Bat to-day his popularity vanished and his grocery store went with it. Up to yesterday the German groceryman had conducted his business with the assistance of French employes who had been in the service of the man from whom the German purchased the store. Last night the ex-Bavarian officer engaged a German assistant. This action upon bis part so enraged the French grocery clerks that there ensued a series of violent protests against what they considered to be an outrage npon the part of the German groceryman and then they left the store vowing vengeance. The French grocerv clerks then went among the groceryman's neighbors 'and hotly abused him for em ploying a iierman assistant. So thoroughly did the French clerks work upen the patriotic feelings of the neighbors that a howling mob soon assembled in front of the grocery store. Finally, just as stones were commencing to dy quickly into the grocery store a strong force of gardiens de la paix appeared npon the scene and charged the mob. The crowd was with difficulty dispersed by the police, who were forced to make several arrests among the most violent of the rioters. The German's grocery trade is ruined by the anti-German onslaught, and he is preparing to sell out and leave. GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS.
