ST. LOUIS, June pa Denver dis

ed.
VIM. Barry, the soldier who killed
Capt. Speer, of the English army, on
the steamer Octavia, while ascending
the Missouri River last year, has been
brought from Fort Stevenson to Yanc-
ton, where he will be tried for murder.
Advices from the Missouri River say
the Indians were quite troublesome
above Fort Buford and near Fort Ben
ton, the Sioux were continuing their
depredations, and had driven on much
stock at the mouth OF the Muscle-shell
River.
Several wood-choppers had been kill
ed and a number OF boats fired into at
Camp Coola, midway between Forts
Benton and BufOrd, new military
post. The Indians had driven of all
the stock and killed two soldiers and
the soldiers killed about twenty In
dians.
a large party of friendly Grosven-
ters were encamped near Fort BufordI
and had several white children with
them, captured in the mountains In 1852.
Several hundred Sautie Indians came
near Fort Berthold, last month, to steal
horses, but were whipped and driven
away by the friendly tribes living near.
Several Santies were killed on their re,
treat. The Santies killed and scalped
an Englishman and a half breed.
Hundreds OF Indians who had par
ticipated in the Minnesota massacre
were near Berthold, openly hostile and
defiant. It is expected that these hos
tile Indians and half breeds will have
a desperate fight during the present
season.
The hostile Indians near Fort Rice
had sent word that they would make
no treaties unless the government
stopped steamboat travel and took all
the soldiers out of the country There
were, however, large numbers OF In
dians were remaining In Fort Rice
awaiting the arrival of the Peace Com
missioners.
At Fort Stevenson no hostile demon
strations had been made, but quite q
large number OF Indians were at all
points.
Surprise was expressed that the Gov
ernment has never taken pains to show
the friendly Indians of Upper Missouri
that their friendship is appreciated.
Tribes that were never known to be nm
friendly are never noticed, nor is there
any palms taken to reward them, while
the hostile Indians are constantly re-
ceiving presents and being petted,
humored and coaxed by the agents OF
the Government.
A Texan writing to the Republican,
urging the construction of railroad
fran st. Louis 10 Texas, says between
the Nueces and Rio Grande rivers there
are a million head of horned cattle and
ten thousand head of horses and mules.
The trade of San Antonio with Mexico
amounts to eight millions of dollars
annually. 1t would take railroad
fifty years to carry all the cattle in
Western Texas to st. Louis. Cattle in
that country are being killed for their
hides alone. He says such a railroad
would not only make st. Louis the
stock market df America, but would
yer mines in the world. alu

what Is called a special tax. each dis
tiller of fifty barrels paying $500 a year
as special; tax of four dollars as a fur
ther special tax upon each barrel over
the fifty. The tax on retail dealers is
fixed at SIS, $50, $40 and $40, according
to the business. The bill also proposed

iistillery capable of mashing and fer
menting a hundred bushels of grain
each day, and three dollars day ad-
ditionai for each hundred bushels. Ad-
ding all the taxes together the tax on
distilled spirits would amount to about
one dollar per gallon and produce from
sixty-five to seventy-hve millions OF

The hour for debate having expired,
the Clerk proceeded to read the bill by
sections for amendments.
Mr.. Van Wyck amended the hrst
section by reducing the tax on whisky
from sixty to fifty cents.
