There is big Indian outbreak on

There is big Indian outbreak on
hand in Colorado, the Ute Indians at
the White river agency, which is about
40 miles south of Rawlins, Nevada,
having murdered the agent and all
the whites at the agency. They also
attacked Major Thornburg's command
of the 9Th Cavalry on the Doth of Sept,
which on its way to the agency, killed
the Major and many men, and sur
rounded the command for several days
fighting hard. All availabletr6Ops in
that department have been ordered
into Colorado, and the final result will
probably be many murdered whites,
half the Utes wiped out, and the bal
ancc put under military surveillance
or sent TO the Indian Territory. The
cause of the outbreak probably lies in
the pure cussedness of the Utes, who
were always warlike tribe, and have

most valuable reservation in the
United States. 1t embraces over one
third of the arabic land and almost
the entire western portion of the state
of Colorado. 1t contains about twelve
million acres, and reaches from short
distance above White river, close to
the northern line of Colorado, to the
extreme southern boundary of the
state. The reservation has on it three
agencies. The Northern or White
River agency is l3S miles due south of
of Rawlins, the well known station on
the line of the Union Pacific railroad.
At this agency about 500 Indians were
collected. At the middle or Uncom-
pahgre agency there are about 1000,
and at the Southern Ute agency 934.
Thus the total number of the confeder-
ated tribes of Utes is about 800.
