Indians to be Disarmed.
CHICAGO, Sept. IL.
A special to the Tribune from Sioux
City says: Next Tuesday, Sept. 10Th,
has been fixed for taking arms and
ponies from the Indians at the various
agencies on the Upper Missouri, and
the military expresses the belief that
the Indians will quietly submit.
Others, who understand the character
of Indians, their love for gun and pony,
believe when the general disarming
begins, there will be trouble; and that
If a massacre at some point or other
along the Missouri is ayerted, it will be
a wonder. Troops are being distrib.
uted along at the agencies where
trouble is most likely to occur, and
should the Indians resist, a lively time
will ensue.
The Old Soldiers.
INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. II.
The committee having in charge the
arrangements for the National Veteran
Reunion which meets here Wednesday
and Thursday, have prepared three
camps where tents for ten thousand
men will be erected. An effort is
also being made to prepare rations
for all organized bodies who remain in
camp. Veterans are coming from
every State in the Union, but the citi-
zens Of Indianapolis are making x
tensive arrangements to care for all.
NEW YORK, Sept. IS.
The damage by yesterdays storm
proves to be very great. Several build
ings wore blown down. The Gospel
tent, in Thirty-fourth street, was ut
terly destroyed, the ~twelve-inch nte
pole being snapped like a pipe stem.
Cellars and easements around the
river front were flooded. No lives
we're lost. The destruction of trees,
awnings, sign-boards, political ban
ners and transparencies is something
immense.
