Cor. indianapolis (Ind.) Sun.
SIR:-Henry Clay Dean, Esq, writes
from Rebelo Cove. Missouri, to the
New York Sun. making among others
the following statements which are
we'll known to be true.
..First-The entire Western states
are covered with mortgages to secure
immense loans from Eastern trust and
insurance companies and from Euro
pean capitalists. These loans are made
at from twelve to twenty per cent,
interest per annum, including the
commissions from agents. The ex-
| change for the notes are payable IN
the Eastern cities) and the first year
interest, which is deducted from the
principal before the delivery of the
money loaned. and the interest is pay
able semi-annually.
SecOnd-These loans are secured by
mortgage upon three times the value
of the real estate mortgage.
Third-In addition to these eXhauS-
tive liens. the rate of taxatiOn(all told)
is about two and half to three per
cent. annually, upon the assessed value
of the property of the whole country.
and this is very moderate calculation
of the tax rates.
Fourth-This very condition OF
things has not only reduced the price
of all the realty of the country. but it
has driven buyers from among us, and
made it almost impossible to sell real
estate for any adequate price.
Fifth-The condition of the proper.
tv holders has destroyed very largely
the prosperity of the entire mercan
tile trade of the country, which has
told in like manner upon the business
of the manufacturers.
This condition of things is growing
worse. and will continue to grow
worse as the mortgages are maturing
but new loans are constatly being made
in double the amounts of themortgage.

RESTLESS REDSKINS.
A Formidable Uprising Immi-
nent in the Northwest.
Causes and Probable Results OF the
Apprehended Outbreak.
HELENA, N. T., Aug. 26.

HELENA, NJ. T., Aug. 26.
The recent success of the Nez Perces
and Idaho Indians is encouraging, to
an alarming extent, several tribes in
Northern Montana, who are united in
a growing enmity to the whites. Twen-
ty-seven tribes are thus affiliated, en-
bracing those from the Lower Column
bia eastward to the Sioux country, and
many tribes living north of the bound
airy, Of which the present hostiles are
members. Moreover, the Sioux have
long been sending runners to these
tribes, advising universal uprising,
and they are now listening to this ad-
vice. These Indians have been for
hidden ammunition, even to hunt with,
for many months, and forbidden to
leave their reservation. At the same
time the rations furnished by the gov
ernment were utterly insufficient, and
starvation would have ensued had they
not disobeyed and gone hunting. Now
they refuse to go to the reservation
and receive the few annuity goods
awaiting them, but demand that the
goods shall he sent them wherever they
happen to be encamped, and are other
wise sullen and defiant. They allege
that the hostile Indians are treated
with tenfold more liberality by the gov
ernment than the peaceful tribes, and
therefore it will profit them to open
war. Every one admits that their
movements are founded on true prem
ises. OF the disaffected tribes among
the branches of the Upper Missouri
there are about $500 warriors, Black
feet, Piegans, Bloods, River Crows,
Gros Ventres and others. They are
likely at any moment to begin to de-
vastate the country through which are
scattered clusters of farms, isolated
trading posts and rich trains Of mer-
chandise en- route between settlements
in Montana and posts in British Amer
lea. These depredations would be car
ried on on both sides of the boundary
line. To oppose these there are few
dozen soldiers, about 100 altogether, at
Fort Benton, and less than 200 Cana
dian mounted police. The result of
such an uprising would be disastrous
beyond the first massacres and the de-
struction of all property outside of a
few central settlements, since it would
cut off the whole northwest from the
Missouri river, the great source of sup
plies. That there is good ground for
most serious apprehension is evident.
The people are alert but almost power
less, and the Indians appreciate their
weakness. Troops are greatly needed.
The presence of small number might
prevent an outbreak which triple
force could not subdue.

FOREIGN.

London, August 30.-A dispatch
from Schipka Pass, 9th inst, gives a
detailed account of the Russian at
tempt to capture redoubt which the
Turks constructed SO as to sweep the
road in the Russian rear. This re-
doubt is still untaken and it constitutes
great danger to the Russians rs it
gives the Turks possession of ridge
running parallel to that up which the
road winds fifteen hundred yards dis
tant. The redoubt enfilades the road
in several places, and the Turkish in
fantry, by extending along the ridge,
which is thickly wooded, can practi-
cally render tho road impossible. 1t
will be- seen, therefore, that the Rus
sian position still remains most critical
in spite of reinforcements.

District Court, where it had been taken
on a change of venue. The proofs
showed that McMains had collected
and was in control of the mob and
hired man to entice Vega out to
them, and that he was taken and hung
to telegraph pole, after which he was
shot and killed. The jury found
McMains guilty in the 9th degree, but
the court, owing to an informality in
the verdict, on motion of the defendant,
granted a new trial, which will be had
at the next March term. Meantime
McMains is out on bail.
