NEGOTIATIONS WITH THE 8IOTTX LIKELY TO BE DliLAYKl)?A BBPKESENTATrVE OF THE OPPO SITION FACTION TO BE BEST FOB?A SPECIAL PLEA FOB THE BINO. Washington, May 23,1875. Die n ilcac ona aro that trio negotiations with , the 81 mux Indiana here will extend over a consid erable period. The Indians, in their councils, have decided that it is necessary, to have the oppo sition faction oi the Sioux represented here, which is now entirely without representation. Accord ingly a telegram was sent to-tfay to the tribal om oers a* Cheyenne, requesting that the chief, Young Ms n-Alniid-oMIis-Horses,shall Immediately set out lor Washington. Tills C'nicf Is the sole remaining liersUitary chief of ttio Sioux, and was deposed by the council which elavated the usurper Uod Cloud. Young-Man-Afraid-or-Uis-Uor.ses remained behind because the government agents refused to allow him to bring on his own interpreter, lie wanted one or tne lamous Ricliaud family, a descendant of the old French Canadian trapper family that has so long been allied with tlie Sioux. The Indian interpreters here say that li Youn/-Mau-Afraltl-of Ilis-Ilorses is brought on, whatever he and Ued Cloud and Spotted T ill may agree to is much more likely to be ratified, wltnout delay, by both branches of the tribe. THE COMPLAINTS OF THE INDIANS. Some of tne parties who And it difficult to ex plain the manner in winch the appropriations made for the purchase or food tor the Sioux have been expendeo are entering a special plea, calcu lated to oefog tie main issue. They sav Those who, with Professor Marsh, have bren so enthusiastic in insisting that the rigtits of tne In dians, under the treaties, shall bo preserved aua better l'ood supplied them,#will be surprised to learn that tinder tne treaties, as regards food, the Sioux Indiana have uo rights whatever. Tne fact Is Miat all the food which the government has given the Sioux Indians for the last two year* has been a gratuity. The sections of all the treaties between the government and the Sioux which provide that the government snail furnish the Sioux a certain amount of food each year, expired by limitation two years ago. Iiy the terms of the treaties irom that dare the Indians have to provide tnemseives with food out or their annuities and general fund and by agricultural pursuits. Yet last year the government appropriated $1,200,000 ana this year has appropriated $1,100,000 ror rood for the sioux. 1 tie Indians, according to the terms of their own contract, have no right to demand food 01 the government. TIIK QVARHKL, therefore, about tne quantity or qnallty of the provisions, or tne manuer In which they are dis- ! tribute*), is the quatrel with the beneiac.or about ! a gilt. liter* is uo treaty right concerned. THE VISITING 8IOCX CHIEFS. A pressure has been brought to bear upon the Indians since their arrival here by outside parties to induce them to leave tbeTremont House, wnere t!.e government had provided quarters lor them, and no t<> their old stamping ground at the Wash ington House. This influence has coine mostly irom the outside interpreters wno followed the Indians here, and wno aro a.l stopping at the Washington House. Tnese men aro re re sented as being interested 111 the negotia tions concerning tne BlacK llili-, and ttey desire to manipulate the minds 01 the Indians. Ked > oud and Spotted lail de manded o. the Commissioner, 1.1st Frnlav. a cirin-{e from meir present quarters, but tie per emptorily teruse i to accede to the demand. To-dav, nowever, thev were induced by some one to make the dhange on their own account, and, headed bv American Horse, seven of them, in cluding Ked ('loud and spotted Tail, succeeded, and went over 10 tne Washington iloiae. it is not known what action the commissioners will take in the premises, but this step ou tno part of the Indiana w considered a oold one, and Indicates that ttiey are determined to have some things tin'ir own way. It ih said that tie ne trotiations win not be accomplished so easily as tbc government anticipated. <K)U> IN THE 11 LACK HIIXS.

IT KB JJODT CABBIED INTO THE TOWEK AND LEFT THEBE?THE BEXTON ARBESTEl) ON (SUSPICION ?EXCITEMENT A.MONO THE PEOPLE. Boston, Mav 23, 1S75. Another murder, even moie horrible In its de tails Him that of Mrs. Iliuguam, which ho shocked and startled ttio entire comuiunity a lew weeks since, was perpetrated in this city this alternoon. A bright little girl 11 v'! yenrs of age was murdered In a church, and the ? bruised and mutilated body carried 1 up into tlie tower and thrown upon the floor of the loft, for years the abode of hundreds of doves 1 and pigeons. Tne victim of this cruel tragedy was Mabel II. Young, who, with lier widowed motlier, resided with her 1 grandfather, at No. 60 East Chester ' Park. The latter, Mr. James Hobbs, Is a well known and highly respected nierciiant, senior of the firm of Ilobbs, I'ope A Co. This alternoon little Mabol, In company with an auut, attended the Sunday School anniversary exercises of the Warren Avenue Hap 1st Church. On coming out or church, at hall-past three o'clock, the aunt remained in the vestibule about ten minutes, conversing with some friends, and on starting home missed the child, who a lew minutes be ore was at her side. At first it was supposed she ii&d gone back into tne church: but wnen she w s not lound In side and persons outside declared she had not come out the aun', became alarmed, und search was made in every direction. About tonr o'clock , some ladies at an open window across tne street | heard FAINT CRIBS OF A CHILD apparently fiom the church tower, and noticed 1 an unusual commotion among the doves that swarmed In and out of tne window. Some | young meii who had joined the search started at once to ascend the tower. They lound the door leading up ironi the organ ! lor, locke I and, on forcing it open, were startled ' ; to see iresh btooJ upon me floor and steps leading i up to the next l..nding. They also lound a 1 strip 01 toaiU covered with blood at one I end, and heard low moauings from above. As- ; l cunding a long, steep fllicht ol stairs and raising ! | tue scuttle, which resisied t le strength of a strong mail, tliev lound the inaugled body j of itie child lying near the edee of the i scuttle, as thougi> it had been carried up the steps and hastily thrown down there. I Carefully they carried her down Into the j church, wheie a large number of persons liad con ; ^regated, and into the presence of her agonized ! friends. From the top of her head, which was broken, blood and brains were s owiy oozing, while the nose was crushed in and the lace terribly i mangled, she was carried to her yraudiather's 1 residence and surgeons at ouce summoned, wuo pronounced the case hopeless arm her death a ! question of but a lew hours at the farthest, j Thomas Piper, who has been .sexton of the chnrca j for about a rear, was soou alter arrested, and is now contlned ar the Chief's office. He was | engaged at work about ttio church, but HIS SU PICIOUS MANNER, and his dental that he nad '.he keys, when the two keys fitting tne doors to the tower were takeu irom his person, point strongly to him us the party. lie is a dark, 1, .. v > set BAH, about twenty-six years o!d, and has once before been under suspicion ol murder, but was discharged for want of snft>clent evidence. Many ol the police still believe him guilt/ of the murder 01 a youn;.' girl in Dorchester district about tlfieen ! months since. This last Affair has caused a profound sensation in the community and intense excitement pre vails. The very bolaneas of the affair lends addi- j tional horror to it. Scarcely three-quarters of an hour elapsed from the time the child came out 01 the vestibule 01 the ' church until she was louud in a dying condition. How she was euticed away, and lor what motive, has not transpired. THE EAST NEW YORK TRAGEDY. Nothing new has been developed bv the authori ties in their researches concerning the Joung tragedy at East New York, save that uu inursJay evening last Joung, the suicide, called at tne lager beor saloon of Ilans Peterson, where Miss Dedgold (Wilhelmina), his former housekeeper, tias been stopping since she left his house, ou Tuesday last, and paid her (30. This money was two months' wages, at the rate of $16 per month, which was the price he stipulated upon with her when he engsged her. In January last. Subsequently be called on her again and gave her (aoo in green backs, which he asked her to keep for lilui, say lug at the same time, "You better take caie 01 this money for me, as I don't know how things are going to turn out with me just yet." She says she did not like to comply with his re quest, dreading she might lose 1;; but he insisted upon her dolug so, as he said he intended to make . her his heiress. On Friday ue called on Wilnelmina again ana gave her $4 to take care of. His man ner was odd and excitable. There can be little or no doubt that Mrs. Joung was murdered | by her husband on the afternoon of Thursday, as sho was never si-en alive alter tie visitor Officer Itropuy at two o'clock on Thursday afternoon, when, he says, he saw ner lying on tue lounge with a handkerchief around ner head; out he did uot speak to tier, as he had 110 warrant tor her arrest, snd could not, therelore. take her out 01 tne bouse. The husband called 111s attention to her then, caul she had cut her finger and was drunk. It would have settled a question which must now remain in doubt, had litnuny spoken to the wo man, as there i? a possibility that she wa? then dead, and that ner looking at bim was purely 1.. aginary on his part, as It was, he did uot speak to her, nor did she to him, and the neighbors say Unit they have not seen her since Wednesday last. The suicide aud murderer, it appears, was inar 1 ned to his victim aoout two years ago. but they liuve never lived on aiulcanle teirns, accordln: to the report of the neighbors. Indeed, it is said that sue was uot a virtuous woman, and that this lact being known to him led 10 his drinking and neglecting his business. He lived for twentv >ear? at East New York, and was con sidered an e.xce. ent custom work tailor. Of late it was the habit 01 Jacob J mng to assert that this woman, Annie, was uot sis lawiul wife. This was a laine.iood, as they were married at the little Lutheran cuurch, about two blocks ulstaat irom the scene ol lhj murder.
