RED DEMONS.
Startling indian Rews-one Man Killed and
Several Wounded.

DEADwooD, April s., 1879.
A band of Indians, who are believed
to be struggling Sioux and Gros Ven
tres from the north, are raiding the
Yellowstone valley. They have run all
the whites in the vicinity Of Terry's
landing on the Yellowstone into the
military posts, and captured all the
horses and cattle.
Johnson and Stearns' house, in the
valley, was attacked by a band of seven
Indians. johnson was killed and
Stearns badly wounded. Another band
of Indians run off all the stage stock.
Troops have been sent out from Fort
Custer, and two companies from Fort
Keogh have gone in pursuit.

viii Visit the East.

Rev. c. NJ. Sanders, pastor of the
Congregational church, expects toleave
tomorrow afternoon for a two months
vacation at his old home in New Hamp-
shire. He will also visit friends and
relatives in Illinois, Massachusetts, and
New York during his absence. Mr..

justly held in high esteem.

THE NORTHERN FORTS.
Sitting Bulls noyements-The Yellowstone
Country.

A correspondent writes as follows
from Fort Keogh, March 10Th:
News from the Yellowstone valley is
rather scarce at present, but great
things are expected from Sitting Bull
as o as that gentleman crosses the
line from British America with all of
his family, which, according to the
latest reports, amounts to six hundred
lodges, or, Mt the rate OF seven Indians
to the lodge, of four Thousand two hum
bred people, Of which fully fifteen hum
dred are warriors. 1t is thought and
believed by not only the public at large,
but by the greatest portion of the army,
that Sitting Bull is chief and leader of
the hostiles across the British line, but
such is not the case. All scouts and
Interpreters who have ever been in the
hostile camp say that Sitting Bull is
only a councilman, whose presence is
scarcely noticed in the camp. Black
Moon is the acknowledged chief, and a
stranger going into the camp would
have to inquire at q good many lodges
before he could find where Sitting
Bulls was.
Fort Keogh, the principal military
post In Montana, is situated at the
junction of the Tongue and Yellow
stone rivers. 1t is a fourteen company
post, commanded at present by Lieut..
Col. Whistler of the 9Th infantry.
The post is well laid out, and kept in
good order. Gen. Miles 1.-THE noted In
dian hghter) planted in and around the
post last season upward of ten thous-
and young trees, which in a few years
will make a pleasant shade, and add
greatly to the appearance of the post.
A great deal of damage has been
done here this winter by the heavy fall
Of snow which, melting, raised the riv-
ers higher than they have ever been in
the recollection of old inhabitants.
The ice gorging backed the water up
until it completely flooded Miles City, a
small town situated on the south bank
of the Tongue river, and about two
miles from Fort Keogh, and destroyed
a great deal of property. Lieut.. Clark,
with two companies of cavalry, who
were in camp at the mouth of Powder
river, was driven from his camp and
forced to take to the bluffs, losing a
large amount of property and forage
by the breaking of an ice gorge in the
Yellowstone river. Wood and hay to
the value of $4,000 has been destroyed
by the flood.
The Bannock Indians who were cap
tured by Gen. Miles at Clark's fork last
September are at this post as prisoners
of They seem perfectly content
ed and would be willing to stay here for
the rest of their lives. They will be
removed to Indian territory in the
spring.
About three weeks ago three runne
from the hostile camp across the line
came over to the Cheyenne Indian
scouts at this post, by whom they were
well treated for several days, but finally
left one night taking with them about
seventy of the best Cheyenne ponies.
The theft was not discovered until the
next day when chase was given, but
without success.

GRANT IN PHILADELPHIA,


PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 19.-The Philadelphia
Commercial Exchange gave General Grant a
pubic reception at noon to-day, at the Exchange
building, which was very beautifully decorated
inside and out, for the occasion. In response to
an address of welcome from Mr.. Bailey, preSi-
dent of the exchange, Gen. Grant delivered a
brief address, in which he said: "My visits
abroad have enabled me to see how greatly
our foreign trade can be increased. In
the East America is only beginning to be known
and appreciated. We are now badly represented
there and Will be uhtil our policy shall be so
changed as to allow our representatives to in
crease their compensa ton by acting as the busi-
ness agents of American manufacturers and
business houses, thus making it to their interest
TO increase and develop our trade rather than to
repress 1t. as is at present the case. In conclu-
sion, the General said: 81 had no idea of saying
this much, and am almost sorry have said It.
| again thank you for the very cordial welcome
you have extended to me-" The remarks of
General Grant were warmly applauded,
Mayor Stokley stepping to the front Of the
platform when Gen. Grant had finished said:
1T is not part of the programme that should
say anything, but can scarcely help remarking
that you can now see how useful, If he be ever
again called upon officially, the general could
administer the affairs OF the nation after his
extensive and careful observations abroad
This remark evoked a SpaSmodic round Of
applause. After brief speech from Gen. Pat
terson the members OF the exchange and in-
vited guests formed in line, which approached
the platform from one side and wound past Gen.
Grant from the other side of the platform and
out OF the exchange building. Very little hand
shaking was done, as it begins to be understood
that Gen. Grant is excessively bored by that sort
of cOrdialty,
