THEE WAR PATH.
Movements of the Indians-The Absenteet
from the A9encies.


WASHINGTON, July 29.-The following
was received yesterday by General Sher-
man from General Sheridan at Chicago:
Eight Indians who we're in the Custer
fight have reached the Cheyenne agency.
They report the main body of the Indians
in front of Crook. Terry is moving further
south. 1t is also reported that large num-
bers are coming back to Cheyenne and
other agencies. These Indians left the hos
tile camp on the nineteenth They will be
retained as prisoners. They report that ten
Indians belonging to the Cheyenne agency
were killed in the Custer fight. Indian
AGENT Hastings reports that not more than
40O SlOuX-men, women and children
have left the agency, and no more will
probably leave, as the counsel of chiefs is
for peace.
More Troops for the Front.
New YORK, July 29.-Four companies of
United States troops, numbering three
hundred men, for the Indian frontier, leave
Jersey City tomorrow morning.
Late Intelligence from Red Cloud Agency.
OMAHA, July 29.-An official telegram
from Fort Laramie says: A courier has
just arrived from the Red Cloud Agency,
and says Red Cloud told him that Crazy
Horse was coming into the agency very
soon, and that his band was now on the
way there. Twenty lodges had already ar
rived. Crazy Horse sent word to Captain
Egan that he would see him, shake hands
and make treaty and be friendly Indians.
The Indians lately arrested will not talk
about the fight, and pretend to know
nothing about it. A council of war was
held at the Cheyenne camp while the
courier was detained there, to talk over tie
change from civil to military authority.
Many opposed it, but Red Cloud had ex-
pressed satisfaction at the ohanoa
Fears are entertained that any attempts TO
deprive the Indians of their ponies and
arms Will meet with reslstaece, as they can
muster large force, we'll armed, while the
number OF the troops at the post is very
small. 1t is thought they will allow them
selves to be numbered without opposition.
Crazy Horse Wants Peace.
CHEYENNE, July 29.-Previous reports,
via the Missouri river agencies, are in part
confirmed by the news received at Fort
Laramie from Red Cloud to-day Runners
arrived at that agency, said to have come
from Crazy Horses band, state that that
chief, with portion of his band had left
Sitting Bulls domain, and are en route for
the agencies, avowedly to treat for peace.
The turning over of the agencies at Red
ClOnd and Spotted Tail has been without
difficulty. While majority of the Indians
are disposed to submit gracefully thereto

CONGRESSIONAL.

WASHINGTON, August 2.-The
Senate to-day confirmed the follow
ing nominations; Green Braun,
Illinois Commissioner of Internal
Revenue, vice Pratt, resigned; Geo,
R. Andrews, United States Attorney
for the Eastern District of Tennes-
see Ohas. @. Streets, Appraiser OF
Merchandise at Mobile; Oscar
Holt, Collector of Internal Revenue
for the Second District of Louisi-
ana; VIM. Herman, postmaster at
independence, Iowa.
The regular order of business
being demanded, the House con-
sidered the Bland silver bill. Mr..
Kasson said the practical difficulty
with those of the House who OPP
posed the bill was want of sufficient
information to vote on the numer-
GUS propositions embraced by the
bill, and therefore they desired such
opportunity as was given by other
parliamentary bodies of inquiry by
commission with a written report.
The bill affected the payment of
the public debt, wages Of labor and
the payment of all debts contracted
since 1873. 1t affects the payment
Of thousands of millions of dollars
of savings in the savings and other
banks, apparently authorizing de-
probation of ten per cent. on paper
and twenty per cent. on gold.

The Hon. J. F. H. Claiborne, in
his Historical Account of Han
cock County and Seabord of Mis-

the Fourth of July, and since pub
lished in the Herald of that place,
relates the following:
On the 18th of December, 1914,
a desperate conflict took place off
our shore between the American
gunboats and the launches of the
British feet, having 1900 seamen
and mariners and forty-iye pieces
of cannon. The enemy captured
the sloop Alligator, and cut off the
schooner Seahorse, which had been
sent here to remove public stores ;
but her gallant captain, seeing that
his vessel could not be saved, blew
her up and the stores with her.
A regiment of militia under Col.
-, from the interior, had been
stationed here several days to op.
pose the landing of the enemy.
They had two pieces of cannon in
position. When the British hotilla
approached to cut off the Seahorse
the militia became nervous, and be-
gan to break ranks. Most Of our
citizens were on the bluffs, and one
invalid lady from Natchez exclaim-
ed: "My God, Colonel, fire one
gun for the honor Of the country
