Anarchy i'm Indian Territory.

ST.. LOUIS. March 16.-Advices from the It.
dian territory say that condition of anarchy
exists in and around Caddo, that part of the
country being under the control of band of
desperadoes. The day before yesterday party
of half-breed Indians from the country went
into Caddo, and being joined by a half dozen
of the town, attacked a freight train on the
track of the Missouri, Kansas and Lexington
Railroad, under the impression that several de.
tectives were on board of it, sent to arrest them.
A fight ensued between the 1uffians and train
men. An ex-marshal, named Donnelly, was
shot four times and killed. Subsequently the
outlaws raided through the town, firing revolv.
ers, driving all the citizens into their houses,
and keeping the whole place in terror for ten or
twelve hours

Zee Gorge in the Miss ouri.

OMAHA, March 16.-The Missouri river is full
of floating ice, the result of the recent cold
snap, and an immense ice gorge has formed ia
Big Bend, causing the stream to overflow the
bottom on the Iowa side for over half mile
opposite the smelling works. The water pours
down over the Iowa bank into the main chan
mel, forming a seres of falls from four to six feet
high and over two hundred in number. At one
place (the southern point) the fall is from forty
to fifty feet wide and about six feet high. This
cutoff is what has been expected for several
years, and it was thought when it did occur it
would form new channel.
