GOV. NDOUGAIL's STATEMENT OF THE RED
RIVER DIFFICULTIES - HIS DISAGREEMENT
WITH THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT.
ST. CLOUD. Mimi. Dec. 3i.-Goy. McDougal Co.'s.
Dennis and Begg arrived here last night and set out
this morning for st Paul. He seems chagrined at
the result of his mission, and blames the Canadian
Government for want of Judgment and the Hudson
Bay Companys officials for being partly at the bot
tom of the whole difficulty. He means to claim his
seat in the House of Commons at Ottawa, and his
portfolio IN the Canadian Cabinet. so that clearly
his difficulties are not all over yet. Col Dennis and
Mr. McDougall deny all the recent statements OF
the Indian question, and maintain that but for them
the Indians would have been up in mass, and the
result fearful, McDOugall believes that the moment
annexation is mentioned. the Indians Will rise ana
the priests withdraw from the instruction.
