FIT. FETTERMAN, May l, 1878.
On the night of the Goth ult., four
masked men broke into the ranch of
John r. Smith, about three miles from
FIT. Mckinney, and stole everything of
value it contained, including four
horses and two mules. A party of
twenty cavalrymen, led by Frank Grou-
ard, the famous scout, started from
Ft. Mckinney yesterday morning to
scour the country in search of these and
numerous other horse thieves that are
known to infest that vicinity. 1t is
almost impossible to travel with horses
or mules between this post and Ft. Nc
Kinney, so numerous are the bands of
organized horse thieves along the road,
who improve every opportunity to rob
travellers. A vigilance committee is
strongly talked of.
The river at this point is unfordable
month earlier than usual. The ferry
boat made the first trip yesterday. A
man arrived from Rock Creek over the
new road, with two horse wagon and
fifteen hundred pounds of freight, and
experienced no difficulty on the road.
A man came in from Medicine Bow
recently with a wagon, instructed to
push through to this post, but found it
impossible to getthrough with wagon,
This man packed provisions on his
back, and came throu ugh on foot.

Washington, May blaine called

THE PARIS INTERNATIONAL
EXHIBITION.
Opened Yesterday Amid Salvos
of Artillery
A Scene at Once Picturesque and I'm
posing, in which Amenca bears
Conspicuous Part.

Paris, May 1.-The International
Exhibition of 1873 was opened to-day
with great eclat, the programme here
tofore made public being strictly car
ried out. President acMahon reached
the exhibition at 2 O'Clock in q state
carriage, escorted by his military house
hold. He was welcomed by Teisserene
Debort, Minister of Commerce, and
the exhibition was declared open amid
salvos of artillery and music by the
bands. The marshal then, at the head
of brilliant procession which included
the Prince Of Wales, ex-King Amade-
us and the Crown Princes of Denmark
and Netherlands, proceeded through
the exhibition buildings. The scene
was picturesque and imposing in the
extreme. The state bodies in grand
uniform, counsellors and magistrates
in their robes, different bodies of the
institate and legion of honor, stood in
strong contrast with the senators, dep
uties, clergy and minor officers, in their
civil costumes. The exhibition build
ing was gaily decorated with flags of
all nations. An immense crowd was
in the vicinity. The American section,
though unfinished, compares favorably
with the others. The department of
manufactures shows the least progress.
The American art department is the
best ever shown abroad by America.
The American quarters, around the
Rue Scribe, were especially brilliant.
The American machinery department,
unfortunately, is still in an unfinished
state, owing to the accident to the
Wyoming, and will not be ready until
June. There are over one hundred
thousand strangers in the city, most of
whom are English and Americans.

MILITARY MATTERS.

A geneaal court martial convened at

forgotten army regulation, which for
bids an officer writing and furnishing
any matter for publication regarding
military movements or orders. In this
case, Gen. Kautz published a pamphlet
review of Judge Advocate General
Dunn's opinion of Kautz's official ac-

ed to dismissal, but whose sentence
was set aside in Washington, and the

Old Sitting Bull Wants Peace.
And Sends q Half Breed to General
Miles to See AbOut II.
CHICAGO, May l, 1878.

ShiSAuo, NAY 1910.
Gen. Sheridan, this afternoon received
a report from Gen. Miles, dated at the
headquarters of this district of the Yel-
lowstone, Fort Keogh, Montana, in
forming him that Sitting Bull and LA
men, all head soldiers and chiefs, had
sent half breed to Gen. Miles, inquir-
ing what kind of peace the United
States would make with them and say
ing that 'The Great Father was, of
course, too rich to expect the Indians
to give up their poor little ponies and
old guns" Gen. Miles, in reply, in
formed Sitting Bull that if he desired
to stop hostilities, peace could be made
which would end all trouble between
the whites and the Indians. When the
Indians give up their ponies and guns
they will receive cattle and other prop
erty of greater value in peace; and when
peace is made the Government will pro-
vide for them as it does for all friendly
Indians

Eioping with a Coachman.
st. Louis, May Miss Francis Reed,
a handsome, intelligent, attractive
young girl fell desperately in love with
a coachman in the service of her aunt,
who lives at Newton, Iowa. The affair
eliminated in an elopement last night.
The couple went direct to Davenport,
intending, as the girl believes, to be
married at Rock Island to-day. At
Davenport, however, the fugitives were
nabbed by the officers of the law and
detained. The girl will be surrendered
to her people, who are wealthy and re-
spectacle. The man is a well-known
thief and burglar, for whom the police
have long been on the lookout.

A Frightful Explosion.


Memphis, May 1.-At 9:2O this morn
ing the tow boat Warner, from New
Orleans to st. Louis, with five model
barges and the trading boat Koligen in
tow, exploded her boiler when opposite
this city. The pilot house and roof
were blown to a great height and fell
back upon the wreck, while the air was
filled with splinters and fragments.
The wreck took fire instantly and the
smoke and steam hid the boat from the
sight of the crowd which soon lined
the bluffs. The boat had a total crew
of twenty-five, but owing to the confu-
sion it is impossible to tell exactly how
many were lost. All the officers and
crew were residents of st. Louis.

Murder at Antelope Springs.

Del Norte, May 1.-George S. Alden,
who was formerly postmaster at Ante
lope Springs, was shot Monday by a
son of Mrs. Cromley, the present post
mistress of that place. He was shot
through the thigh, and bled to death in
about twenty minutes. The cause is
said to have been an insult, or remark
that was construed as such by Mrs.
Cromley. The son, acting on this i'm
preston, went to Alden's house, called
him out and shot him.

London, May 1.-The Times in a
leading editorial says regarding this:
Russia appears to be ready to make
numerous concessions, providing she
can substitute for common European
interests in Turkey, set of isolated
and conflicting interests, and can thus
emancipate herself, no less than Tur-
key, from direct obligations towards
Europe. 1t is this disposition against
which we must persistently protest,
and if Russia seeks peaceful issue to
the present complications, she must
recognize the principles she had ac-
knowledged on former occasions, let
her only do that, and concessions even
less than those she offers, might in
some respects satisfy this country.
