Five Indians Were Killed
and Several Wounded
in the Battle.
DY ARMOCIATrEt. rEtRss.
Douglas, \Wyo., Nov. 3.-County Attor
ney lMecum has returned here from the
Beaver Dams on Lightning creek with full
particulars of the recent troulde with the
Indians. The fight occurred about half an
hour before sunset on Saturday evening.
Sheriff Miller of New Castle, ex-Sheriff
Owens and a posse of eight men had fol
lowed the Sioux which were from the Pine
Ridge agency to the Beaver Dams with
warrants for their arrest for unlawfully
killing game.
The Indians refused to surrender and
the posse allowed them to pass and secur
ing four additional deputies, headed the
Indiana in a valley at the Beaver Dams
and demanded their surrender. The In
dians, headed by one Charley Smith, other
wise known as Eagle Feather, without re
plying, shot and instantly killed Deputy
Falkenburgh. The shooting then became
general on both sides. Sheriff Miller was
shot in the hip, dying from the would.
Five Good Reds.
Five Indians, inclutding the Jnotorious
Eagle Feather, were killed and five badly
wounded, of whom three are not expected
to live. The Indians then scattered and
struck out for the Dakota line. There were
22 bucks and 36 squaws arid children in
the party.
Sheriff McDermott of \Veston county,
Deputy Cook and a posse of zo cowboys
from Douglas and Lusk, all heavily armed,
are in hot pursuit of the Indians and may
possibly overtake them before they reach
the state line. The dead Indians were
buried while the bodies of Sheriff Miller
snd Deputy Falkenburgh were taken to
New Castle.
Sheriff Miller was well known here as a
brave man. Falkenburgh was for a num
ber of years employed by sheep men here
and was well regarded.
Chief a Bad ,Man.
Cheyenne, Wyo., Nov. 3.-Governor
Chatterton discredits a report of a second
battle, he having received information in
dicating that no posse could possibly have
come up with the fugitives as early as this
morning. The fugitives have 36 hours
start of the first posse to reach the battle
field.
Eagle Feather was a half-breed Indian,
and was known by the name of Charley
White, when associating with whites. ,He
,was a highly intelligent Indian, a graduate
of the Carlisle college, where he played on
the football team.
Civilization failed to subdue his riot
ous blood, however, and he bore the repu
tation of a trouble-maker. Hearing that
Sheriff Miller intended to stop the depre
dations of his party, he sent word to the
officer that he never would be taken. This
trouble with the Sioux has been brewing
for several years.
Chief's Squaw Shot.
Denver, Colo., Nov. 3.-A special to the
Times from Lusk, Wyo., says:
Posses are returning from the scene of
the recent fight with Indians, but sonic are
atbll in pursuit. It is believed that the In
dians have escaped and will return to their
reservation in South Dakota. A posse
front Lusk assisted to bury, at the scene of
the battle, Eagle Feather who was known
also as Chief Smith, Black Kettle, Gray
Bear, and an Indian boy who were killed
in the fight. Eagle Feather's squaw was
shot in the left shoulder and will die,
They Will Be Good.

Bristol, Tenn., Nov. 3.---A fatal election
row occurred in a pulling place at Fair

Two men were killed and two others in
jttred, one fatally.
The dead--Jolhn Osborne, Ezekiel
Nickels.

the neck, will die; Alexander Kris, shot

mad to C. P. Roller serving as a republi
can judge. Roller, it is claimed, had been
selected by democratic election conttnis
sinners for service. Osborne and Nickels,
the two dead mten, were democratic judges
and were brought into the quarrel on ac

that killed Osborne and Nickels. The two
men killed shot Cutron and Kris. More
