Officers.

gagged in the Slaughter Of Buffalo
"OYer the Line"
The Supposed Hostiles Believed to be
Renegades From Spotted Tail
Agency.
SITTING BULL QUIET.

Helena, Mont, Jan. 29.-The indie
pendent publishes the following:
Major Walsh, of the Northwest
Mounted Police, commandant of Fort
Walsh, Canada, near which Sitting
Bull and other hostile Indians are now
located, arrived in Helena to-day, eight
days out from Fort Walsh. When
Major Walsh left, Sitting Bull, Little
Knife and So lodges were at the east
end police post in the Cypress noun
tains, where they intended to remain
during the winter.
The night before leaving Maj. Walsh
received message from Sitting Bull
saying he had heard that the Americans
were coming to fight him and his peo-
pie; that they were tired of b.ood and
would move nearer the police post. He
desired Maj. Walsh to speak to the
White Mother for him.
Spotted Eagle sent him message at
the same time saying he was awaiting
the arrival of 100 lodges of his people,
who were coming from the Spotted
Tail Agency, and that if they would
obey the requirements of Maj. Walsh
they could remain with him, and if not,
they must go by, and he too would
move to the Cypress mountains.
1t is not improbable that these latter
are the Indians reported to Gen. Miles.
Maj. Walsh says that at no time since
his arrival has Sitting Bulls camp
crossed the line to American soil. He
has received daily messages from him
since the Terry commission returned.
Their movement across the line with
out his knowledge would be impossible,
and he would promptly advise Gen.
Gibbon in that event.
The Sioux camp is now scattered.
Spotted Eagle, and 100 lodges, is at
Pinto Butte, and the others are scat
tered along White Mud river in the
Wood mountains, where buffalo are
plenty. This condition is irreconcila-
BILE with the rumored warlike inten-
tions.
Col. Mcleod, commander of the
Mounted Police, is here and corrobor-
ates the above. No credence has been
attached here to the rumors of Sitting
Bull having crossed the line. Mai.
Walsh's statements are deemed in the
highest degree trustworthy.

SECRETARY SHERMAN, in an inter-
view yesterday, said he recognized the
law. He believes there is clear two
thirds for it in each branch Of Congress.
He saw no reason for belief or hope
that it could be defeated. He thought
an amendment might be put in, but
that not much difference could be
made. He thinks the reconciliation
of silver will not affect gold or green
backs at once, as all the silver that can
be coined for several months would be
used for the payment of duties and the
people in general will not see much Of
it until some time after the passage of
the bill.
