ter In Hancock county. The gang have
taken refuge in the swamps of Occonee
and Ogeebee. The Grand Jury of Han
cock county, now in session, have investi

Wyo., 20:
This afternoon General Merritt and
command returned to this point, the orr
ders from Washington being TO suspend
operations against the Utes and await
orders either at White or Bear river, as
negotiations for peace are in progress, il
being understood that the hOstiles have
agreed to surrender the warriors engaged
10 the receut depredatioes. It is probable
that the combined commands OF Merritt
and Gilbert will remain for the present at
this point, although nothing definite is
known as to future movements In the
event OF peace being established, it is alto
gether probable that a permanent military
post will be established either at Bear
river or the agsncy.

well that it should not and must not be
devoted wholly to issues of national
character, There are many matters of
domestic concern in which the people of
