The Cheyenne daily leader. [volume] (Cheyenne, Wyo.) 1870-1884, 1876-04-19
A sensation al St. Augustine, Fla.

From the Jacksonville tFla-) Sun. April 10.
On Tuesday night a plot was dis
covered among the Indian prisoners
at Fort San Marco, in st. Angus
tine, by which a general uprising
and slaughter of the white inhabi-
tants was prevented. Several of the
Indians who had been confined were
to be released, and then, after OYER
powering the, single soldier who re-
mains in the fort at night, they were
to sally forth and massacre the in
habitants, and, if possible, the sol
diers who stay at night in the bar
racks, a mile distant. Fortunately,
the plot YVES betrayed to Captain
Pratt by one of the Kiowas, and the
murderous design frustrated in time.
Poisoned arrows were the weapons to
be used, with the addition of what
guns could be obtained. The alarm
is said to have caused many of the
visitors in st. Augustine to make
active preparations for leaving.
Since writing the above, we learn
that the Cheyennes plotted to muir
der Captain Pratt, the sergeant in
the fort, and another white man, and
then escape into the city. All the
Indians were not agreed in the plot,
and one of the Kiowas told Captain
Pratt of the design, and when the
Indians went into the mess room the
Captain had the door secured and
the C~heyennes taken ont two by two
and ironed. Another story reports
that a half,breed started the plot,
and told the Indians that they might
obtain shelter with the Seminoles in
the Everglades. Alis A.ss

WEDNESDAY, APRIL l9s 1876.
: nh. readers Of 4 the sensational

oIhe SreadersA OF the sensational
newspapers which publish all kinds
and styles of dispatches, rumors and
reports as true, including the most
reckless of ISLANDERS and calumnies,
like those recently published against
President Grant and Ex-Speaker
Blaine, should learn to be exceed
ingly discriminating when wading
through the columns of Geographic
bosh which has Of al sbecome such a
conspicuous feature Of Contemplating
journalism. To say that there is
generally a mere grain of truth in
these heaps of chat, would be an un-
due allowance--especially in the
Washington heap. Stripped of their
partisan electioneering object, and
their sensationalism, at least nine.
tenths of the charges and scandals,
which constitute the burden of the
Washington news" amount to moth
ing at all.

These distances are by the road
soon to be built by the citizens o
Cheyenne. By the road now travel
ed the distance from Cheyenne to
Custer City is 246 miles.
TRANSPORTATION, ETC.
A line of daily stages, carrying
passengers, mail and express, will
begin running between Cheyenne
and Custer City on or before the
LIST of May. Fare will be as fol-
lows: First-class, Cheyenne to
Custer City, $40; sccond-class,
Cheyenne to Custer City, S15;
third-class, Cheyenne to Custer City,
$40. (These rates apply only to
through tiekets.)
Our forwarding houses can fur
nish transportation for 1000, 900
pounds at a shipment. Freight
charges, Cheyenne to Custer, range
from 81 to 6 cents per pound, ac-
cording to kind of animals employed
and time consumed on the road.
Horses are plenty and cheap here.
Prices range as follows: Well-bro-
ken saddle horses, $35 to $75 each ;
or with saddle, bride, etc, from $40
up. Wcll-broken work teams, 500
to $3.50 per span ; single carriage
horses, 800 to $3.50 each mules,
5000 to $500 per span.
1t will cost less to outfit here than
to bring outfits with you. Heavy
stocks and hot competition cause
this. We do not say SO because we
are paid for it but because We have
yet to see the mar who has QUILTED
elsewhere who does not affirm hat
his outfit has cost him at least 25
per cent. more than it would if pur-
chased here.

Freight Rates-Etc.

In answer to the hundreds of
communications we are in daily re-
ceipt of, we have compiled the bud
get of information herewith given,
for the benefit of all who are afflicted
with the Black Hills fever. While
tits not as complete as we desire
and promise to make it, We think it
will answer most of the questions
asked.
The first query propounded is
whether we really believe there is
gold in the Black Hills. This has
been too well proven to admit Of
doubt. Gold is found in paying
quantities in nearly all portions of
the region, the richest discoveries
having been of quite recent occur
renee, on Deadwood and Whitcwood
creeks, some sixty miles from Custer
City, which is now a large and -four
ishing town, with regularly elected
officers, a full complement of bust
ness houses, etc.
West and north of the Black
Hills lie extensive mountain ranges
of similar formation, which have
been but little explored, but which
are full of gold and silver, which lat
ter metal has been discovered in
large and rich veins, within thirty
miles of Custer City. Good gold
quartz mines have also been found
in the Hills.
