CAUsEoF THE INDIAN OUTBREAK.
DEEP CREEK, UTAH, September 0.-Or
account Of the rumors Of the general up
rising Of the Indians Of the Eastern part
Of Nevada, much alarm has been created
The first reports have been CoFrOboratel
by Indians who had been out for the pas
Eve days having arrived this morning
from the vicinity Of Clcvelands rancho
From tho best information gathered, all
our Indian troubles originated In the fol
lowing way;
Two Indians showed two white men
some rich quartz, but refused to stand to
contract. QIarreling ensued, and an In
dian called Tobo shot one white man
then two Indians were killed, As this
report circulated from point to point
without giving cause for same, II excited
the Indians who believed they were the
injured parties, which impression result
ed in their rendesvouzing at prominent
places, the better to facilitate an investi.
cation into their cause Of trouble, which
ELECTED the above. Indian TObe has
been:in great disrepute with his tribe for
several years, he being Of vicious
character, having caused trouble previ-
Ously. lie was looked upon as q wizard,
having extraordinary powers, and Is
feared by all. Runners are out In all di.
reCtions from the prominent chiefs, with
instructions to capture and kill him
wherever found. White scouts proceed.
cd to carry out the decree, Peanut,
the war.chief OF the GoshOots has
been greatly excited for several days,
having heard that his son was among the
slain, and together with BlaCkhawk his
brother, have excited their men to pre-.
pare to avenge his death, thismorning
when he made his appearance, bringing
the report rs mentioned above regarding
the killing Of the Indian. The favorable
impression which was caused by the ap.
pearAnce Of the chiefs son, soon showed
itself by their coming to the station and
explaining the facts, but expressing rO.
gret that Tobe had not been Killed In the
place Of others.
Great excitement has prevailed for sew.
erul days among the Indians anil Whites,
each fearing they knew not what. The
scouts and guards joined together and
have been scouting and watching for the
approaching trouble. Arms and ammu.
milton have been ordered and every pre-.
caution taken to Withstand un attack
should strange Indians make an appear.

from those in the valley. Tho GoshootS

elements Of the day will subside, giving
the whites an opportunity to attend to
their Legitimate duties and tho Indians
time to gather their pine knots,
