The special Commissioners of the
United States Government who are
holding council with the Sioux In
dams in Wyoming Territory, to make
a new treaty for the Black Hills re-
gion, are actually in peril. The young
warriors of the Northern tribes, who
are Is uncomfortable as wild beasts,
are naking threatening movements,
and il is feared that they will attack
the small force of cavalry that is
guarding the council, and commit a
terrible massacre. The hostile party
numbers about 5000 young braves.
