INDIAN WAR IN UTAH.

Woods to Issue q PrOclnma tiOn, Call
Out the Nauvoo Legion, and Have
Federal Troops TO Scour the Territory
for Indian Mara uders.
SALT LAKE CITY, June 20, 1872.
Strong efforts are being made to create the i'm
preston that fierce Indian war In the southern
part OF the Territory is imminent One two men
have been killed by Indians or whites and guam
tty OF stock stolen and, Influenced by the an
nouncement or these murders and robbery, the
Mormon leaders extremely anxious that the
Governor Woods has also been solicited to issue
proclamation setting forth the necessity for calling
out the troops, based on what at present seems to
be unreliable information.
The present Indian sensation Is precisely or the
same nature ms that OF last year, when nothing less
than exterminatiOn in some Mormon quarters, was
looked for, but which fell and died out from abso-
lutte weakness. General Morrow, commanding this
district, receives number OF reports daily OF mas
sacres and outrages committed in Mormon terri
tory, but the most astonishing part OF these com
muncatOns Is that they fail to locate the scenes OF
all these murders, rapine and robbery The Gen
era has considerable force OF federal troops under
his command all OF whom ne could concentrate upon
any given point at short notice should the necessity
be shown for such a movement, and the govern
ment forces would doubtless speedily rid the ter
ritory Of any troublesome Indians.
The general impression at the camp and among
the best informed portion Of the community Is that
the whole affair has been started by clique OF
Mormon politicians who are DESTROYS OF making
capital out OF IL, and In order to cause an expen-
diture OF government funds, whereby, for special
reasons, they will be benefited to a very consider
able degree. Despite all the sensational ramOrs
that may be teegraphed East, little faith is to be
placed In this so-called Indian war In Utah.

passage to the latter port in eleven days. The

touching at one two ports In the Mediterranean,

When 800 miles from Madeira the east trade winds

under steam. The Juniata touched at Bermuda for
coal, arriving there the 14th and sailing the 18th.
owing to the thick fog the Juniata got out Of her

being deep enough to float her. Boston light
was sighted on Friday night at hafpast

WONDERS WILL NEVER CEASE.
The Fastest Mile Ever Trotted-JO.
Elliott Ahead Of Them All-Timc
81 "a

Boston, June %, 1872
Mr.. Bonner, Of New York, can again be happy in
the possession OF the fastest trotter in America.
His famous horse Jo Elliott, which has been at the
Mystic Park in this city for the last few weeks,
to-day earned for himself the proud dis
tinction Of making a mile in less time
than any other horse In the country. For
several days he has been regularly tested, and on
Wednesday he accomplished his mile In 2:1s. To-
day, however, he did still better, making the dis
lance In 2:l5, which stands as the fastest time
record The ribbons were held by Jack Bowen,
who has had the horse In training, and over the
course 10. Elliott was sent to the best advan-
tage. The One-quarter pole he passed, and was
noted there in thirty-fOur and quarter seconds,
and by the half in OK. With grand stride he
came down the hOmestretch and under the wire in
2:15H. The judges were G. Chase, Albert Worces-
ter, Lon Morris, w. w. Gomez and Il. s. Wright.
All OF these gentlemen timed the horse, and, with
one exception, their record was 2:15H. The timer
who differed gave him the mile In 214A, but IL
was decided to record the sl0west time indicated.
The following telegram has been sent to Mr..
BOnner:-

When he was seven Mr.. Bonner himself drove him
