NEW YORK, August 2S.-The World has dis

among them the Crees, powerful tribe, have
been dissatisfied with the occupation of their
territory by Sitting Bull and his warriors, but
were pacified with the assurances given them
that they would soon return to the United

The police force numbers only $50 men, aud the

the order to evacuate the public streets after

November. Those residing elsewhere have no

to fever In attending friends or even strangers.
