BANNOCKS AT BAY.
Gen. Smiths Interview With the Fort Hall
seiiigerents-They ''Come to Time"
When Their Money is Withheld.

Especial Correspondence Of The Leader.i
FORT HALL. IDAHO, Dec. %.
Gen. John E. Smith, arrived here
yesterday, accompanied by Major Stan
ton, paymaster. The former came to
investigate Indian troubles at this
Agency, and the latter to pay troops.
Gen. Smith held council with the In
dians yesterday evening and informed
them, in very plain language, thattthey
were not complying with their treaty.
The ShoshOnes were not present at the
council, as they were not implicated in
the recent murders, but there was a
gathering of the Bannocks, who have
been very hostile lately, and who have
refused up to this time to deliver up
the murdcrers of Rhoden.
The General informed the head men
that this sort of thing must stop; that
the murderers must be given up, and if
it WAS not done soon he should insti
tute summary proceedings against them.
The treaty required and they had agreed
to it, that if an Indian committed mur-
der or other Uffense, he was to be deliv-
cred up for punishment. This murder
er had been in their camp daily since
the commission of the crime, and they
had not given him up, and even e
clared they would not. Now, if they
did not attend to this at once, they
xronld bara trn,,hla ha cold
There was q good deal of indifference
to the Generals speech, although it was
couched in very plain and forcible lam
guage. Finally he told them that their
rations would be stopped if they did
not bring in the renegade, and he re-
quested Major Stanton to withhold the
pay due about sixty Bannock scouts
there assembled, who had been out
with Gen. Howard during the summer,
and had about 500 due each. Major
Stanton paid off the Shoshone scouts,
but did not pay the Bannocks. This
created good deal of CONSERVATION,
and the whole Bannock outfit, together
with many Shoshones, turned out to
hunt up the murderer.
The Bannocks number about 22O
warriors, and the shoshones about 300.
The latter, however, are not at all dis
posed to join the Bannocks in going to
war, and the probability is that under
Gen. Smiths judicious management
the trouble will be settled without an
other war. Still, it is not an entirely
sure thing that such will be the case.

THE TEXAS TROUBLE.
Latss, from the Sea, of War

Chicago, Dec. 2S.-Correspondence
received at military headquarters de-
tails the surrender of Howard and his
band at San Elizario, the subsequent
shooting of Howard, Mcbride and At
kinson, and the other events, substan-
TALLY as given in the dispatches. The
rioters were reported to be picking up
their effects and m wing the same over
the river, and others elsewhere. Oaly
five rioters were identified as Mrxicans,
and it is thought there were net over
ten fro m that side, although the organ
lied rioters were $50 strong, and were
accompanied b! about 150 thieves. The
Mexican authorities lave posted a large
number of notices on both sides of the
river, warning Mexican citizens against
participating in the troubles.

SECRETARY EvARTs, during an in
terview yesterday, said: The relations
between all of the Cabinet officers are
Of the most pleasant character. The
Cabinet is at peace; the Republican
party really is at peace, and the coun-
try is at peace. 1t is only the politicians
who are at war, and they will soon end
that when they see that the country
takes no interest in it.'' Evarts re-
fused to speak of the New York ap-
pointments, further than to say the
tenure of Office act did not prevent the
President from sending in unconfirmed
names as often as he wanted to.

Children Cruelty Cremated.

Chicago, Dec. 2s.-News is just re-
ceived of horrible accident in Morgan
Township, Crawford county, Iowa.
Carl Mas and wife, farmers, locked
their three children, aged respectively
enc, two and half, and four years, in
the house. on Christmas day, and went
away to husk corn. They were shortly
after apprised by "a Deighbor of the fact
that their house was burning, and when
they reached it it was wrapped in
flames and the children were burned to
a crisp. The mother frantically at
tempted to rush into the flames, but
was forcibly prevented. The foggy
morning had prevented them from see
ing the fire sooner.

Butcher Butler to be Bounced,

Washington, Dec. Ex-senator But
ler's friends are greatly excited over
the discovery of all alleged plot on the
part of the Republican Senators to ex-
pei Butler from the Senate. Senator
Cockrell claims to have knowledge of
such movement, and in all interview
charges that the scheme is to coerce
Conover into supporting a resolution
ousting Butler, and by taking advan-
tage of Senator Patterson's illness, to
force the resolution through the Sem
ate. Careful inquiry in Republican
quarters fails to disclose that there is
any foundation for the alarm, although
the Republicans would be glad if such
u resolution could be got through the
Senate.

cHANDLER'S CHARGES.

What the Fellow Feels Bad About.
Chicago, Dec. 2s.-Washington Lis-
patches this morning contained the
charge made by VIM. Z. Chandler in
his letter attacking the administration,
that while other members of the Louis
lana commission had received rewards
from the President in the shape of
offices, patronage, etc., that Judge e.
B. Lawrence, Of this city, was re-
warded by the withdrawal of the prose-
cution against Jake Rehm, for whisky
frauds.
Judge Lawrence, being interviewed
to-day, characterized the charge, as far
as he was concerned, as utterly absurd.
The case was dismissed, he said, solely
on the testimony and OH the representa-
tions of the Government counsel. He
had presented the case to the Attorney
General, and Secretary Sherman, after
his return from New Orleans, and by
them it was referred to the local Off
cials here, but he had never mentioned
Rehm's name to President Hayes.
1t is proper to state that the whole
responsibility Of the dismissal Of the
suits rests with the United States
court judges here, and that their action
was based on the representations of the
counsel for Rehm and for the Govern.
ment and on decisions in similar cases
at st. Louis, made during the admins
tration of President Grant, which were
in some degree taken as precedent.

The Mariposa Mining Suit.

New York, Dec. 2s.-The Mariposa
Land and Mining company have won
again in the action brought in their be-
half as well as his own, by F. D. Walk
er, against Eugene Kelly and Joseph
A. Donohue to restrain them from
foreclosing a mortgage upon the Mari
posa estate and from taking any other
proceedings against the estate or per-
sonal property upon it. An injunction
has been granted by the Supreme court
of New York, sitting in Kings county,
on the 4th of October last, restraining
such action. The same court this MORN
ing, holding that this injunction has
been violated, granted an order requir-
ing Kelly to show cause why he should
not be punished for contempt of court.

Meters Failure.

New York, Dec. 2s.-Wall street re-
sounds with commendation of the
shrewdness and promptitude whereby
James r. Keene rescued over two hun
dred thousand dollars securities from
Netter s. Co. before their failure. He
had deposited the securities as collater-
al with large margin for call loans.
Getting advice on Friday morning of
some doubtful or unbusinesslike pro-
ceedings elsewhere of the Meters, lie
instantly took up his loan, demanding
and obtaining his cullaterals. 1t was
this which precipitated their failure
which, however, was inevitable at an
early day.

Washington, Dec. 2S.-The Execu-
tive committee appointed by the new
greenback and silver reconciliation
party, consisting of Senator Jones, Of
Nevada, Buckner, of Missouri, and
Philips, of Kansas, have been busy dur
ing the recess, sending out documents,
and expect the new movement will
assume definite shape after the reas-
sembling of Congress.
Members of the House committee on
Foreign Affairs believe the Cabinet will
not recognize the Diaz government,
since Congress has taken up the Mexi-
can question, until the whole subject
has been considered.
