Trouble Between Indians and Settlers
In Northwestern Wyoming
Really Serious.
Agent Teter Asks that United States
Soldiers Be Ordered to the Scene
Request Promptly Com

Pooatello, Idaho, July 24. The Indian
war has broken oat in earnest. A Union
Pacific , engineer, named Hobt. Fitz
patriok, confirmee the report that the
Banoook Indians killed a settler, his wife,
and ohild in Salt River valley, and that
the white men killed six Indians before
the band escaped to the mountains. The
settlers are leaving their ranches and
gathering at favored points for mutnal
protection, in oase the Indians return to
seek vengeance. If the settlers are not
soon protected by government troops,
they will take the field in protection of
their lives and property. Foraging Ban'
nn"9 are seeking snpplies of govern'
mJa.. fk..U')'om the reservation, and
700 Shoshone books, from the Wind River
reservation, have started to aid the Ban
nocks.
UNITED STATES TBOOPS REQUESTED.
Washington. The secretary of the in
terior has requested the secretary of war
to send troops to the scene of the Indian
disturbance in Wyoming. It is understood
that the request will be granted as soon
as the ofBoial papers are received by the
seoretary of war and that troops will be
ordered instantly to the vicinity of the
tronble. The action of the interior de'
partment was taken upon the reoeipt of
the following dispatob, this morning,
from Agent Teter, who was ordered to go
from the Fort Hall reservation, in Idaho,
and investigate the tronble between the
whites and Indians in Wyoming and in
duce the Indians to return to their reser
vation:
"Fort Hall, Idaho, July 24. To Brown
ing, commissioner of Indian affairs,
Washington: I have investigated the
tronble between the Indians and settlers
in Wyoming, and advise that troops be
sent here immediately to proteot law
abiding settlers. The lawless element
among the settlrrs seem determined to
cause a conflict there with Indians.
"The settlers have killed from four to
seven Indians, which has incensed the In
dians, who have gathered to the number
of 200 to 300, freer Wind river, Uintah
oonnty, and refuse to return to the re
servation. I find that the Indians have
killed game unlawfully according to the
laws of Wyoming, thongh not unlawfully
aooording to the treaty of tho Indians
with the United States, thus nsnrping
prerogatives of settlers, which oansed
the tronble. Nothing but the interven
tion of soldiers will settle the difficulty
and save the lives of innocent persons j
and the destruction of property."

JEFFREY'S RETURN.
He Talks or Bimetallism Abroad and
atteneral ltevlval of Trade
and Commerce.
Denver, Jnly 24. After a somewhat
short, bat very busy, stay in England
and on the continent of Europe, Presi
dent E. T. Jeffrey, of the Denver & Rio
(irande railroad, has returned. Mr. Jeff'
rey went to England to attend the inter
national congress of railway officials, re
garded as the most important of all such
meetings by reason of the papers read be'
fore the congress', and he was much
pleased with the results of. the railway
congress, and took muoh satisfaction in
the fact that of all the papers read be'
fore that body, none commanded anything
like the real importance ol that of l. M
Touoey, general manager of the New
York Central railway. Mr. Touoey s pa
per contained speed records of the
famous Empire state express, whioh
showed the positively alarming rate of
102 and 105 miles per hour. These state'
ments, Mr. Jeffrey said, created positive
oonsternation among European delegates,
INTEBEBT Or BIMETALLISM, ;
He said: "I met a number of gentle
men in London who are bimetallists, and
very strong ones. The general thought
expressed by these gentlemen is that the
largely inoreased ontpnt of gold in sonth
Africa, and the largely inoreased output
of the same metnl in Colorado and other
parts of the United States, together with
the indications of a returning prosperity
in Great Britain as well as the United
States, will retard the advance of bimetal
lism. The belief abroad is that Lord
Salisbury's government will not at all be
disposed to take the initiative in regard
to bimetallism, even though some mem
bers of the cabinet are outspoken friends
of the cause. I made some inquiries as
to the probable effect in Germany, that
is, regarding the inoreased output of the
gold fields and the apparent return of
prosperity, endeavoring to ascertain the
possible action of the Uerman govern
ment. It was quite the same there. Ger
man bimetallists thought that the two
conditions mentioned wonld go far toward
retarding early aotion npon the part of
that government in favor of bimetallism.
The gentlemen who expressed these views
unhesitatingly stated they were wedded to
the opinion that the world at large would
be the better for bimetallism, and that
it will oome sooner or later; but the early
advent of it, whioh they Were expect
ing, is, in their opinion, hardly to be ex
pected now."
IN THE OOMMEBOIAL WOBLD.
Regarding the condition of the com
mercial world, Mr. Jeffrey continued:
"From what I oonld learn in England,
it is conceded there that then is a return
of prosperity in the United States. This
is the opinion entertained by financiers
and business men there. - So real is this
opinion that they all told me there would
be much less reluctanoe in making invest
ments in our oonntry than during the
past two or three years. English capital
must seek investment outside of Great
Britain, and the field for it is not very
extensive beyond our own country and
South Afrioa, whioh absorbs a great deal
of English money." -

What the Hardy Miners of Sonfli west

The Wagner mill at Pinos Altos is run
ning on Langston ore, of which there is a
considerable quantity out. There is some
talk of moving the mill to the mine, as
water is said to be plentiful there.
The Bell & Stevens properties in the
Pinos Altos district are closed down, and
it is reported that the sale which has been
pending for some time, is now an assured
fact. An extension has been granted un
til the 25th inst., when it is confidently
asserted the transfer will take p'.ce.

the Diinmook Bros.' Silver Cell mine at

small arroyo, partly imbedded in sand and
earth. It was taken to Silver City, and it
has been on exhibition at the Silver City
National bank for the past week.
The Crawford mill on the Las Animas
has been given a thorongh trial by Preis
ser &, Doughty. Tho result is most satis

to its full capacity on the ore of the Frei
burg mine.
HillBboro Advocate: The contractors
driving the tunnel at the Caledonia mine
are following up a 20-inch vein of $U5
ore, that will surely bring the property to
the front as one of our prinoipal pro
ducers and eventually make very wealthy
men of Hon. W. S. Hopewell and his as
sociates. The Wicks mine is shipping about four
cnrloadB of ore a week from Socorro to
El Paso. The ore runs about $100 to the
ton, without, sorting.
Hon. W. S. Hopewell has the machinery
purchased and on the way here for a 10-
stamp mill, with all the modern improve
ments, for the treatment of the ores of
his mines and also custom ores. A
sampling works will bo run in connection.
Ihe gentleman refuses nt present to
divulge its prospective location. Hills

The engineers who were reoently at
Hillsboro looking over the placers for
Dr. Proctor's California capitalists, place
the cost of the dam on the Animas, the
construction of the hydraulic works, the
pipe lino, freights, water rights, etc., at
$000,000. Major Llewellyn's and Prof.
Cnrrera's estimate was $100,000.
While in Silver City recently W. T.
Clime hired forty Mexicans to go to work
in the Carlisle mines.
Col. Robert MilUkin expects soon to
commence shipping ore from the old
American mine at Hachita.

heart, indigestion, liver complaint, dizzy
spells and headaches made me a great
